Goodbye Ondoy

After the Ondoy’ wrath, there is still much to thank about. For one, we are all alive and that’s more than enough. To my family who never stopped, praying, worrying and doing everything they can, my heart swells. To my aunt who looked for us (and even my father), it was overwhelming. To my in…

Ondoy: Signal #3

The aftermath. Monday morning and the water finally subside to a more tolerable level. First thing first, hubby went outside to buy some food. After an hour or two, he went back with a sumptuous meal, RICE and hot soup. Finally! We acted as if we hadn’t eaten for years. And the worst part is…

Ondoy: Hope

It was Sunday morning and the sun is starting to shine, we finally had a glimpse of hope. The water level is starting to subside. Then we heard a helicopter nearby. There’s hope for us. After a day of darkness, we finally see the end of the tunnel. The beaming sound of the helicopter is…

Ondoy: Signal #2

Sunday Morning. Then the hardest part hit us. The water subside inch by inch but that’s the least of our problem now. We were hit by a bigger one, a stronger storm signal. We have no food and we have three little mouths to feed. Th hubby suggested I breastfeed Chico again, but that would…

Ondoy: Signal #1

The night concluded with heavy raindrops. It was Friday night. It seems that the clouds are crying with us over the ending of our favorite soap opera. I can’t sleep when there’s heavy rain, I worry a lot but for some reason, I slept soundly that night. From what I heard, the storm, Ondoy is…

Coupons Are My Best Friend

After what happened to us last weekend, I am not sure how long it will take to recover all our loss. Al our appliances are gone to waste. The first floor of the house was filled with flood water. Good thing I am an avid collector of coupons. Discount coupons that I can use to…

A Thankful Post

We’re fine. To those who dropped by here, asking if we are OK, indeed we are. The longest weekend of my life is way behind me now. I cannot explain how relieved I am now that we can all sleep soundly. To those who have no idea what I am talking about, we were hit…

Baby Bathing

As I have said in my previous article, I will elaborate the topics covered in ParentinTV talk series held last Saturday. I arrived a bit late on the venue and the first speaker is already on the floor when I was seated (my apologies to Dr Maila dela Cruz). If I am not mistake, the…
