One of the fast rising employment option for moms out there is to work from home.

Being a netizen/blogger, I know several who are in this kind of work and I have great respect for them. Why? If it was me, I will have a hard time concentrating on live answering service if my toddler wants to play ball in the garden (this is hypothetical) or my the pile of clothes to be folded is almost toppling because of the weight (now this is my reality).

Imagine if the client hears your toddler’s pleas to play or the sound of thuds because the clothes toppled over?

Writing articles is something I have a hard time accomplishing especially when the inspiration is nowhere to be found. Imagine if I have to answer emails that scream “answer me now?!”

I’d probably be fired after a few days if I work like this 😀

Well, at least, these moms can hoop their way to fitness during breaks, right?

This is my daughter teaching herself how to play a song, using her guitar. One tab is opened for the chords of the song she is playing and the other tab is opened to an internet radio station where the song she is listening to through the headphones is playing.

I’m sure one day she will ask for bigger guitars to play with, like a squier 51 or the likes. For now, we just enjoy listening to what she can play with as she learns how to play by being self-taught.

I have fun using the different camera apps in my mobile device.

One of the things I like is the HDR camera app because it enables me to take crisp (and yeah, out of this world and impossibly) vivid photos.

Here was one that I did, using MIL’s colored bottles propped on the window sill:

Vivid colors, ey?

No, I am not referring to this piano at the MIL’s home.

I love short films and I particularly like this: The Piano

The hubby is great with keyboards along with the eldest daughter.

The youngest daughter used to play the recorder and had wanted me to get her flutes and piccolos, very much like the days the eldest wanted a harpsichord. Harpsichord? I don’t even remember seeing one so it was really something we look back to and remember fondly 😉

I haven’t been blogging a lot lately but it doesn’t mean my being involved in things online has ceased. In fact I am even more active than before! Nah, not Facebook but in Instagram.

Follow me! teacherjulie

^ was done by my eldest daughter. using black ink pen.

I enjoy looking at wonderful photos of lol, trees, lakes, hiking places, camping places, pets and cute things among others. Nah, I don’t look at vain photos especially from famous celebrities because I’d rather enjoy foggy, sunny, hilly, tree-lined places.

I am pretty sure I would enjoy photos related to Christmas like that of department 56 snowbabies. Speaking of which, I’ve a friend who collects snow globes. Maybe she should take more photos of her collection.

What to do when a hard drive crashes and everything you hold dear, digitally I mean, are there?

That happened to a family friend whose hard drive got invaded by ants (don’t ask me, I don’t know the how and the why) and all her files are there. As in everything, from 3D pregnancy photos, to parties she decorated to family photos. Argh, isn’t it?

When External Hard Drives go bonkers, one should not do anything about the HD especially if this one or two persons are not certified at all to open, inspect and play know-it-all. Seriously, bring that hard drive to a hard disk drive recovery center and let experts work on it.

Think of it as a hospital for your hard drive and wish fervently that everything or a big part of your data will be retrieved.

Next time though, store your files in the cloud 🙂
