Caroleen’s Treasures

I had a very bad leg cramps that woke me up early in the morning. I can’t move my right leg and my gastrocnemius was like being twisted very very tightly. That was the second time I had it and the pain is still there each time I move my leg. I could tolerate the cramps on my feet but not on my legs. The pain is really bad and all I could do is moan. I could not get myself to wake up Donald to help me. I was able to go back to sleep after what it seems like eternity of agonizing pain. I am just so thankful my muscles relaxed and the pain went away.

When I woke up, Ella was holding a denim dress and said she will go to the chapel ahead of me. I slowly made myself get out of bed because she hasn’t showered yet. Donald just came from the bathroom and made me a cup of hot coffee (not that strong….I know it is bad for me but let me have it just for today) and then he fixed a bowl of cereals for Ella. I have 11 kids in my class today and all looking forward for the food. There is a little boy who is always accompanied by her mother (who also has a 3 month-old baby) in our class and I was able to try the cloth diapers to the baby. The newborn size could still fit her but the small size is better. Such a tiny baby. She only weighs almost 3 lbs when she was born.

After the worship service, we had lunch and took a nap. I was too exhausted from my sewing that I slept until it was almost 6pm. That gives me enough energy to stay up until the wee hours in the morning. I sweet talked Donald into buying bananas, fig pie, isaw and to cook chopsuey for dinner which he did with all his heart.

He was asking me ALL.THE.TIME. when will I add him to my blogroll. Yes, he has a blog and am very proud. I think he did such a great job on his blog that it is the right time for him to introduce to ya all. So ladies and gentlemen…..here’s my dearest husband’s blog. HALO-HALO ESPESYAL. The name was derived from the famous Filipino dessert which is made of shaved ice, milk and mixed with sweetened plantains, various fruits and preserved beans. He named his blog after that because he doesn’t know what category he will be putting his blog in. So to play safe, he named it Halo-halo Espesyal since he wanted to write anything that he thinks worth reading. So guys, I beg you not to forget to visit him. That would really really make his day.
