Swan Portraits

Who doesn’t wanna go back to Manila? I always love to come back and see my siblings again. Too many things I want my kids to experience too when we go there. The life that is very different in what we have here.

I’m planning to be home, but no definite month. I’m still contemplating with the cost and money that I need to spend to go home. Hahahah My sister just asked me to buy her grip strut since she cannot find one back home. And my other sister asked for iTouch and iPad. Yaaay! Going home is not really that simple.. lol

Tired and exhausted. This is my everyday feeling. Not that I don’t like things in my life.. I just want some things to end. I still love my life. We cannot really have everything to be perfect. There will always be some struggling that will come.. Hoping to end some struggles I have, soon!

I will upload some photos I took while I’m away from my computer

I am so excited that just next week I will be fulfilling my dream of becoming a small business owner. For years, I have worked in bakeries all over the country after I went to pastry school in France. Baking has always been my passion and going to work everyday doesn’t feel like work. Recently, I decided that it was time for me to start a bakery on my own. It won’t be in competition with the bakery that I worked with before, because we are going to be located about fifteen minutes away. In a city this large, there is definitely room for two bakeries! All of the upgrades and construction are finished. We are just putting on the finishing touches ( decor). I am also going to have my own office for the first time ever! I have been working on our website for months and have finally gotten it just about where I want it. I only have one more thing left to do. I need to visit smallbusiness.xo and figure out how I am going to get all of the communication systems set up for the bakery. I just can’t wait!

I’m preparing for my exam seriously lately and also taking more assignments at work. It’s really a hectic schedule that I have no more time to blog on things that I want. Anyway, I will try to make notes of what I need to blog and will come back to tell more stories on this blog.

I would like to thank HerStyler barrel for my curly hair here I’m so in love with this barrel right now. And I don’t feel guilty that it will ruin or damage my hair. I don’t need to put any hair products to hold my curls too and it last for more than 24 hours.. just so amazing!

Maybe the next plan is to invest on some Cowboy Hat so I can be a cow girl once in my life. Don’t be afraid to dream.. I once dream to have curls and it happened. lol

We visited a friend’s new house last week. I really like their house! Many rooms, big living space, office room, nice kitchen, and big backyard. I like to have it but thinking the additional money we need to pay for our mortgage.. I feel contended with what we have. lol

This barnwood furniture will really look good on their dining room. Maybe if we get enough money to splurge with home furniture I can trade our dining set with this. But it will take a loooong time before it happen. We’re still paying other obligation right now.

My little boy is officially done with diapers and pull ups after 3 years and 5 months I’m so happy that I no longer need to think about bringing diapers or wipes. Life became so easy for us now.

I always tell this to myself.. let you kids experience to be a kid. It won’t last forever. My little boy still drink milk on the bottle and still co-sleep with us on our bed. I know that time will come and he will realize things and will just stop doing it. And after that I can’t make time to go back.. so until then, I will savor having him in our bed.

Does anyone else but me see a direct correlation between television and a laptop? When I see one or the other I just assume that they go together. Like peanut butter and jelly you can’t really have one without the other. I think I may have an addiction to watching television while mindlessly scrolling through page after page of Pinterest.com. I love this site. I feel like I can find just about anything on there. I have actually started using it as a search engine for when people are talking about a certain color or clothing item I can search it on Pinterest and usually find tons of example pictures of what I am looking for. I like this almost better than Google because I am a visual person so I like to see pictures for everything. I also get some pretty great ideas between watching design shows on Direct.tv and then finding more things related to the idea from the show on Pinterest my house is going to look so amazing when I get done with it.

I know that some people are busy looking for that perfect gifts for valentines day now. A lot of red and pink stuff are on display for this occasion in almost all stores. I will not be one of those people who will be busy shopping for this occasion. But I will watch out on the red and pink stuff after February 14 That is when big savings will come. I’m on the watch for the discounted chocolates

Old Naples Chocolates

A good $390 to invest in our family bonding and creative entertainment.
