Belated Father’s Day Post

Father’s Day came and went but we weren’t able to celebrate because the husband has to be away for family matters. I was left behind to attend to the kids since this week was the first week of school.

It doesn’t really matter if we celebrated or not, we try to show how we love each other day in and day out. There’s no doubt that the children adore their father and that he in turn, loves them so much.

Live each day as if it’s your last. It may be a bit harsh but we can’t turn back the clock and feel we have not done enough to show we love our family.

Evanescence Concert

My eldest daughter loves Evanescence and it was a given that she has to watch their concert when they came to town. And watch she did her first ever major concert and it was Evanescence! with just the hubby waiting for her outside the concert venue:

This daughter of mine can play the piano well even without formal training.

My other daughter loves playing the guitar and in fact she has her mini-guitar as a gift last Christmas. I am sure when this girl is older and can play well, she will ask for guitar accessories like a Jackson or a note-stand like their cousin who now plays an electric guitar 🙂

Loves Music

The youngest daughter who loves to draw also loves music. She has forgotten though how to play the recorder mostly because her skills were self-taught.

She got an RJ  guitar for her birthday (that’s her and the hubby) and she watches video tutorials on how to play the guitar. Before she got interested in getting a guitar, she also played the piano and expressed wanting to have her own drum sets for kids. Being busy in school doesn’t give us time for proper guitar lessons yet, so we are targeting summer programs in our area.

I hope we’d be able to find a good program soon.

Allergy is Not Welcome Here

Aaachooo! Sniff, sniff… aaachooo!

Yes, I’m suffering an allergy episode right now. Must be the weather and also maybe because I have been restless and lacking sleep during the weekend because the youngest child had fever while the son had asthma attack episodes.

When I get tired and lack sleep, when I smell paint and other strong chemical smells and when the weather is gray because the sky is cloudy and there is no sunshine, I suffer.

What would I do without you, sunshine? *giggles at this private joke shared between friends*

I take matters in my own hands when allergy strikes. I drink more vit C, take much needed rest (sleep!) and have natural remedies like teas and what-nots. I just had two raw banana plantains and a cup of warm lemongrass tea with wild honey. And crushed garlic. Argh.

I am not a fan of doctors and hospitals: I am not fond of the smell of antiseptic and hospitals, having a check-up, going to the ER, getting an ecg, and most especially going to an OR (been there once) and DR (been there thrice).

I wish this feeling would go away. Soon. I can’t bear the sniffles and the sneezes.

Freshly baked Chocolate Chips, Raisins and Banana Bread is FTW!

Chocolate Chips, Raisins and Banana Bread

As with the chocolate chips muffins, these are best eaten when still warm. Please pass the coffee! 🙂
