Hubby has set his sights on running during weekends. In fact, he is even considering signing up for running events this summer and this enthusiasm has rubbed on the children so much that they have their new sets of running shoes.

I know running is good and I am willing to try it out too.

For now, we are on the look out for other means to physically exercise even when we can’t run. I know we have this Theraband Ball which I am sitting on right now but could have other purposes if I am creative enough to use it for its sole purposes.

There is a one week break, if I am not mistaken from April 6 – 12. Yes, the April 9 Day of Valour (Araw ng Kagitingan) has been moved earlier to add another no-work day for that particular weekis in the Holy Week itself.

I hope the soldiers who risked their lives for the freedom in this country are not turning in their graves nor wanting to come out of it and pull the leg of whoever thought of making this kind of disservice to their memory.

Anyway, hubby and I were talking about what we would do. He was thinking of going to the City of Pines but of course, he certainly jests, for I would “bet” that that place would be packed to the brim. Yes, instead of breathing fresh mountain air, we might even feel we didn’t leave this megapolitan place.

So where to? Continue Reading »

Lately my hubby has started to rekindling his love for running (and walking) and of course, we naturally join him so that we could get our own dose of physical exercise. I can do this since I can’t do biking.

In fact, it was just the other day when the younger kids got new pairs of running shoes for this new found “love”.

Last Sunday night we had a go at it and the kids thoroughly enjoyed the exercise. When they got tired, we rolled out the mat and they had fun lying on it watching the almost full moon shine brightly along with numerous stars in the night sky.

Sleeveles tops.

Short pants.

Flip-flops.

Swimming gear.

Sun block.

These are just some of the items we need to get to be ready for summer, especially if the plans to have the children go to a vacation down south, these would come in handy for them to enjoy summer days without feeling hot and restricted with their movements.

So yes, I admit, I am forever on the lookout for sale events happening in the nearby malls.

Who knows, I might even get me and my hubby some new gears too, now that we have started to get involved with running and walking together  🙂

I can feel the pressure building around my shoulders.

Friday is the day we submit the grades for my homeschooling children and we have not completed all task that needs to be completed.

To think I have to make two progress reports for two of my students due for re-evaluation with their developmental pediatrician.

Not that I am complaining but I know I have to make a whole lot of progress reports once I take the first step necessary to be able to do what I intend to do with my other work place.

March and April are months when graduations happen where we are. My eldest daughter is graduating from elementary school as she is in her 7th grade. We opted to not go to high school even if she passed the entrance test she took last year which means she can skip grade seven.

At first she doesn’t want to go to grade 7 because that would mean additional expenses for  year. But we decided to just go ahead to enable her to prepare herself better for the challenges in high school and to further hone her leadership abilities.

To those graduating students, I salute you for all the hard work you have done (wishful thinking for some, lol).
