So. . .

So, it's been a month or so since I last posted any of my rants and ramblings, incoherent thoughts, feelings or whatsoever. Well, here goes. . .

Having this new superior being in my workplace has kept us on our toes forever(!) She has this whole idea of work, work and work until we may drop dead at her feet begging for mercy, begging to add another extra hours to the 24-hours we already have. Hahahaha, nah lah. . .some of my colleagues find her tempo a lil' bit at the vivace speed - no rit. or ritards at points where one would only wish for. But she's damn good I tell you. She gets what she wants and turns down what she sees as unimportant and impractical. She's a workacohlic which is no surprise when she seems to be in the state of oblivion about our recent school break. Hmm. . .

Being a single mom (hey, don't get me wrong here;P) has been driving me nuts!!! It's not just the work, kids or the chores at home since that's part and parcel of the label mother a.k.a mommy but also the unfamiliar territories I find myself in at times when in need of muscle power! But hey, it got me into fixing (or maybe making it worse?) leaking taps, part-time electrician when a bulb at home refuses to light up and trying to dismantle this scaffolding thingy when big brother-in-law needs it. Aside from that, I think I've learned to be more independent and stronger in facing the inundating decisions and scenarios I encounter each day as a working mom. Still, I am really looking forward to the day when Edward gets to complete the 'out-station' phase of his work. . .

Well eyes(;p), despite that whining I've let out, it's not that death threatening *giggles*. There's always that weekend I look forward to or those stolen moments when I either sneak out of home or let the kids tag along looking for something more soothing, comforting and relaxing.

Ending here with a few pictures taken during my silence. . .

A place I love going to when in search of solitude

I saw this can rolling during a friend's open house and why not? Took a shot of it(!). . .
Hehehe you know like clicking the camera. . .

On her way to motherhood

Heard the familiar sound of Khelex's engine revving pass by at about 5.45 this morning ; ) I smiled. . .my sis was on her way to Hospital Likas. I speed dialed her number (just to make sure that smug look on my face was for real!!). Yes, she was finally on her way to deliver her first baby and my bonus question was "Painful?" Very silly and unnecessary of me to asked her that since I was supplying her with info on the different stages of pain I went through and how irritated I was when being asked questions. . .especially when it concerned the pain. "Painful lah buduh. . ." plus that chuckle of hers was what I got.

Well, as of 8.30 a.m. she hasn't burst yet but was about to be wheeled to the delivery room. Hmm, another added member to the clan.

Happy weekend people. . .

Induction Program. . .

Just some shots taken randomly. . .

I love you. . .

Boy 1: "Bye Mommy! See you later. Love you!!"
Boy 2: "Bye Mommy! Good girl, kay. Love you!!"

The very words that started my day as I was about to speed off to work. Friday morn. Papers strewn all over the desk, handphone beeping somewhere, files pulled out from somewhere under. . . .uuhhh, wouldn't believe the mess today. Again people of higher rankings will be visiting Monday, so it was the hustle and bustle of getting every last minute thingy done. The whole darn week was like hell, so I guess we were rotting there too!!! We were, well lets say I was (I wouldn't want to say about the others) getting edgy and probably growing those terrible horns as well as tainting that halo (wish I had!!). All I needed was 'de fork' as my colleague supplied me with that thought after slamming the door to the face of another colleague and muttering those awful otherwise surprising (!) words.

Hmm, not much of being a good girl as Ed puts it every morning. But as I sat down and let the steam around cool off, I'd smile at the thought of my two boys imitating what their mama says to them before leaving them. Anytime of the day I would surely hear those same words ringing from a 'bigger boy' and it will make my day. . .or else to ease the tension all I need to do is speed dial the 'bigger boy's' number and taa-daa. . .I'll smile.

TGIF people. . . that indeed has also made my week. . . .have a blast this weekend!

. . .and there was clicking. . .

Happy New Year. . .

Happy New Year everyone. . .it's our second day of school and the new school year welcomed us with 'busy-ness' even before we punch in for the day. Nazirs were around and some of us were 'caught' in class unannounced. I had my share of encounter with them. . .pleasant in some ways that I had almost every 'right excuse' to their probing fault-finding (in a way! *grrr*) interrogation. We have a new lady principal in and pity her. . .her first day in school was chaos.

Hope your start of the year was as you might have wanted it;) Cheers people!!!
