Caroleen’s Treasures

Gee, I thought we will spend the rest of the night in darkness. Glad the power was back at 10:30pm after an hour interruption. I am working on the two other rooms in the house for several days now. They needed some organizing. Started both at the same time and I am hopping from one to another and until now neither of it was finished. I had no idea how come it always needs some work when no one uses them. Some of our stuffs are in the middle room and Ella’s toys are in the third room and it seems I am cleaning and organizing it every other month! We even never allowed Ella to go in there to play these past months to avoid a big mess but even so it still looks like it was ran over by a tornado. I can’t work straight because I am breastfeeding Eman from time to time but I am trying to get this done before Ella’s birthday.

Last Saturday, a relative of the church members died of old age so we went to their place this afternoon. There weren’t much people there and the church where the old woman was attending isn’t doing a service. I do not know why. Since the funeral will be tomorrow, Donald arranged a schedule of service with the family and he came back there tonight with other members of the church while Ella, Eman and I stayed at home. I am not going there at night time because it is very far from here and there was no other ride than a motorbike.

At last we had a somewhat decent family picture.

Thanks to my cousin’s daughter, Dimple, for taking this photo. This was taken at their place where we stayed for a couple of nights before going home.

Our popcorn was a hit at Ella’s class! Tehee!!!! I packed popcorn in a small microwavable container and when she called there’s free popcorn, everyone ran to her and she wasn’t able to eat. So tonight she asked me if she could bring popcorn again tomorrow. When I gave her the permission, she climbed up the chair and filled the biggest container she found in the cabinet. I could not careless because she’s just making sure she can eat too. Read more… »

March 24

Yesterday at 3 a.m. Donald found me still infront of my pc getting more and more addicted to this thing. He was annoyed seeing me wide awake and told me to go to bed. I refused thinking that if I’d go to sleep I may not be awake at 6 a.m. to catch the 1st trip to Kabacan. He is much concerned about my weight loss. I had this problem of easily loosing appetite when so much engrossed in something, lack of sleep and stress. For just a couple of week, my weight has gotten from 45kgs down to 42kgs.
