I have been busy preparing for my daughter's birthday party for the past couple of days. I was trying to grab some birthday giveaway contents for the children attending the party. We will hold it at Sahara Sam's. My hubby thinks it's a little bit expensive but we don't actually plan and hold such parties in every expensive places every year. At least there would be one of those birthdays that will really be memorable to her. I thank Jonna for giving her Spongebob birthday cake. I have a feeling this will be a blast for the kids. Hapoy birthday Heaven!;-)
I have been lucky to have two days off in the weekend when everyone is busy working in the store. Yay me! A weekend with the kids and hubby. I slept late and woke up late no worries. I'm just lucky my husband is not demanding. I decided to have a summer cleaning of the spare bedroom. My kids shared one room since they really don't like to sleep all by themselves. They share a bunkbed which I think needs to be replaced a year from now. When she's ready to sleep all by herself one room is in waiting for her. For now we store all our extra belongings in there. Getting stuff in and out has made that room a complete mess. After dinner tonight I started cleaning the place. I am so lucky the kids helped me with it. I decided to open the tubs so I can segregate the clothes that are no longer of use to us, everyone's clothes. My kids helped me decide which clothes they want to throw away. I was able to collect one big black trash bag of clothes, unbelievable! I vacummed, the kids picked up the books and papers. The little boy keep going and down the stairs to get some thrash bags. He is always my best helper. I finally was able to organize the room. Now the kids have a playroom. They seem to love the place since it's already livable once again. Before I hit the sack let me greet you a happy weekend guys!
Something funny is going on here. It's been a while since I updated my blog that i almost forgot on how to write a new post. I kept on thinking and looking around to see how to start. Ahh, finally I was able to find my way.;-)
Anyways, today is my children's first day of their long vacation. I woke up early and prepared them breakfast. They have already been going to the pool for the last couple of days since they only have had half days. Yesterday it was so ridiculously hot and they wanted to go swimming but I don't want them to go swimming so they decided to turn the garden sprinkler and had fun. Simple joy of kids what more could you ask for.;-) I don't have so much activities lined up for them but their teacher did gave them something to answer like once in a while so they won't forget everything about school. I do have a plan of having Heaven's birthday party at Sahara Sam's next month so we have a long way to go.;-) Ain't that cool.
Time flies so fast. A few more days it would be June which means the kids will have their two months vacation. I am so far enjoying the signs of summer. More fun in the sun. It has been ridiculously hot yesterday yet I manage to make some pork barbecue for dinner. Some grilled corn went well with it and the kids made their homework in the backyard. One of my relatives invited me to see them in upstate new York this summer but I am not sure yet if my family can go. We've spent a fortune in our last NYC vacation and we are still in progress of purchasing another lot so money is a little bit scarce as of the moment. We will see if this vacation will be finalized.
;-)Other thank that I would like to bring the kids to six flags safari which is 30 minutes away from home. I think that is another vacation plan option.
The Grand essentials of happiness are: something to do, something to love, and something to hope for.( Allan K. Chalmers )
Sometimes I feel so sad and alone. And then I would wonder why. Searching for temporary happiness will not make anybody happy but then happiness is simply is one's state of mind. Have you tried wanting something expensive? If you have bought that material did it give you lasting happiness? Been there done that yet it didn't make me glad at all.
Today I would prefer to be happy and avoid the thought of being sad. There is so much in life to hope for and love for. For all these I will do something. Then there is really somehing to look forward to.;-)
I will be helping my nephew go to college. He has one more year before he finishes HRM. I will provide him with tuition, books, food and transportation allowance. It won't really be easy because I am not rich yet I want to at least help him. Next month school starts and he will be going to school. I hope and pray God will help me in helping him. Hopefully he will be able to finish school soon. I would not ask anything in return as long as he will do his best to finish his studies. It may not be my obligation to send him to school but when he will finish his studies I am sure I will be happy too. I am doing my best to help him prepare for his near future.
It's funny that I woke up early and went back to sleep yesterday morning. I ended up having having a weird dream. I was holding up to a horizontal pole above me as I was riding into something that seem to be travelling up above the air. I looked down and saw waterfalls and a really huge body of water. Is this real? Something was weird because I realized that I was not sitting down comfortably, instead I was at the tip of my toe as I was hloding the ploe above me and moved higher and higher. When I woke up my hands were clasp tight on top of my head. Thank God it was just a dream. I really wonder what it means since I could not really forget it. If I were to interpret my dream I would say it is the product of my longing of home away from home. Perhaps one day I will cross the pond again to see my mom, my brothers and sisters.

Yesterday was a fine day and today we have had anothe wonderful day. Ahhh, what a beautiful Wednesday and I am loving it. After the kids left for school, I started my day cleaning the living room, the stairs, the kids bedroom and our bedroom. Good thingit's my day off from work. I ended up so tired and took a nap this afternoon. I checked on my new plants outside when I woke up. The tomatoes looked good except for the other one that seem to be eaten by something an animal or an insect. I think the animals/ insects are attracted to its sweet smell. I also have sone cucumber and pepper and they are grwoing well too. We went to Walmart to get the stakes and another hose for the backyard. I wanted to get a clay pot for the tomato but they run out of it. Hubby promised to get one on the weekend.
