A Decade of FRIENDSHIP
Stomach Flu
Todd already left for work I phoned him and told him that I won’t be able to make it to work today. I called my sissy and said to take some rest and drink hot water with sugar. I will try to avoid eating oily food for the day and have some easy to digest. I felt a little better now but my stomach still feels weird.
I suspect it was the chocolate milk I wasn’t able to tolerate the lactose. Hope this will be gone by tomorrow for I need to get back to work.

As We Say Goodbye to our 25 Ft Fifth Wheel Trailer
Three years ago we bought a 25 ft fifth wheel trailer for us to use when we go camping on summer time and to go on trips. Though the trailer is 20 years old model but nothing is wrong with it. It has a new fridge and new hot water tank and the interior is clean. We are so lucky when we bought it for it was well taken care by the previous owners. Since we have it we might have used it probably less than ten times.
Our first trip with the trailer we went up north in Madoc, 4 hours drive from our house. We stayed there for couple of days the trailer made our stay very comfortable and enjoyable. Its like a little house as well everything is there.
The last time we used was on July 2007, we had a week off from work we went to Four Mile Creek with our two doggies. The fifth wheel made our stay very comfortable all through the week. It was easy and safe to leave the dogs inside every time we go to town to buy something.
We bought the unit thinking we can tow it to Tennessee or to South Carolina every time we visit my sisters. We wanted to try to use it for our trips but the truck we got has a small engine that it might take us forever to get to our destination. Just lately, with the price of gas going up so high that with a truck towing a fifth wheel it would cost us a fortune, we have decided to scale back. Scaling back for the future for as projected gas will go up to $1.40 a liter on the summer. The truck and fifth wheel have been listed on paper for sale.
Last weekend we had to empty our stuff from the trailer, sad to say the buyer wanted the trailer to be delivered on 1st of May. Todd and I are still having the second thoughts of either keeping or selling it for nothing is wrong with the unit but, we have to take precautions before the price of gas gets to the roof. If that time comes then we will be stuck with it.
I hope we made the right decision. We can still go on camping using inexpensive gadgets but with less comfort than what we have. Once the trailer will be gone all is left for us are memories that we can reminisce.
To the new owner happy camping!
Spring season has long begun it started on the 21st of March. I am glad for spring has arrived after so many months of winter season. Last week our weather was gorgeous, sunny with a high of 23 degrees Celsius and it wasn’t cold neither warm. Todd and I even went for a motorcycle ride to enjoy the warm weather. Last weekend I have decided to pack all my winter clothes and replaced my closet with my spring and summer clothes thinking the weather will stay the same.
This morning when I woke up it was raining and freezing cold on a spring season. Glad that I work afternoon shift with weather like this I still have the time to sleep in. I didn’t feel like going to work especially on a Monday, I tend to have this Monday sickness especially with the weather being cold. I have no choice but to be there at work for especially they called me to come in early to do some overtime. When I was getting ready for work I had to dig my long sleeves and my winter dress coat to keep warm.
On my way out to the parking lot after work my car had some frost on the windshield.
Weather is very hard to predict only God knows. I am still thankful winter is over; the coldness right now is bearable.

Papa's Fifth Death Anniversary (28th April '08)
Thank YOU Friend
The Guy I Love
Todd and I have been married for four solid and loving years. We had a whirlwind romance before we got married. It may sound weird to you guys but we met each other online. I thought online relationships doesn't work but here we are on our four years of being together. He had never change since the first time i knew and met him in person. There maybe some misunderstandings along the way but that is part of a married life. He is a very loving, thoughtful, understanding, kind hearted man and a good provider to the family.

My Nephews and Nieces
Nino is the first grandson of my parents. He is so closed to my mom. He was cute, chinky eyed and chubby while he was still a baby up to now he is still handsome with two dimples. Champoy (tsamporado) is his favorite as a kid. He also likes chicken noodle with egg, marshmallow coated with chocolate. He had gained so much weight in his elementary years but was able to loose. Basketball is his sport and he is friendly also. He has grown up and has matured already especially he is now a dad to Keishi. He just finished his degree in nursing. Congrats dong! Good luck on your board exam.
Em em is the 2nd apo (grand daughter). She was small baby and had a thick black hair. She was sickly as a kid due to her asthma till now it didn’t go away. She was a shy type of person, just wanted to be in the corner but she has overcome it. It took quite a while before she can speak properly thought she won’t be able to learn fast but it turned out the other way. Em em has beauty and brains aside from that she is also tough and is never afraid to say what she feels. She is very thoughtful and appreciates even little things that you will give her. She is responsible and knows a lot of house work. She is almost done in her studies this will be her last year to finish her nursing degree.
Keep up all the good work and always aim for the best.
Shemar is the 3rd apo (grand daughter). Shemar was a big baby at 10 lbs, she has a pretty curly hair. I remember when she was a kid I used to brush her hair with the circular brush that I got tangled to her curly hair. It took me so long to untangle it that she fell asleep. She is very talented; she loves dancing, singing, and modeling. I remember she loves to wear my clothes, shoes and does her fashion show in the house. She likes to be become a news caster but took a different field. She will be turning 18 this 1st of June wish I’m there for her debut. She is smart, pretty and intelligent.
Good luck in your studies.
Krismar is the baby of the siblings. I didn’t spent so much time with her for she was born in Davao City. I only had the chance to be with her every time they come to Cebu for vacation either Christmas or summer. Though not a lot of time spent but it was still worth while. She was 11 lbs when she was born my sister had to undergo caesarian operation for her. She looks like one of the cherub angels and she has a very curly hair. She likes Ariel a lot from the little mermaid. I gave her a caricature of her face with the body of the mermaid.
Since her hair is curly she always wanted to have a long and straight hair. She loves to wrap her hair with a baby blanket and fantasize that her hair is long and straight. My sister bought a wig for her. She is an animal lover too; she has 2 poodle dogs and birds at home. She likes to become a veterinarian as a kid; I don’t know now it might have change. I remember there was a stray kitten roaming outside the house crying she named him “Robert”. The kitten gets used to her for she will give food to him. One day Robert didn’t come to the house that makes her so sad. She has a heart for animals too.
She has grown a lot now becoming taller and skinnier.
Kyle is the eldest son of my sister Lany. I had so much time spent with Kyle for I was living with them when he was born. He is such an adorable, cute, handsome baby, neighbors won’t even know that we have a newborn for seldom you can hear him cry at night. Kyle was very sickly as a kid he had asthma at a very young age. Kyle is very “buotan” a person with a heart or a sense of humanity. He is scared of dogs because he was bitten by one before. He is trying to overcome the fear. He is into Taekwondo, I think he has now a red black belt. He is also a very kind kid.
Keishi is the baby of them all. She is cute, adorable and can easily learn on things. The last time I talked to her on the phone,omg, she has a loud voice doesn't sound like a baby anymore.
To all of you kiddos good luck in your studies and be good all the time.
Auntie Mommy loves and misses you a lot. Hope to see all of you again.
