Just kidding. Of course, I know what day it is. The 327th day of March. Alright, it’s the 30th and so far, LilDude is on his second week of distance schooling. He woke up at 10 A.M. only to tell me he needed to sleep in. Since I was in the middle of doing post-productionContinue reading “What Day Is It? #QuarantineLife”

Musings Over Coffee: #QuarantineLife Week 1 Update
I don’t normally grind my teeth when I’m stressed (or I don’t think I do) but I do know that my shoulders get really stiff when I am. I also start feeling agitated. Imagine high school chemistry when the teacher talks about molecules zinging all over an enclosed space as it’s heated. Well, that’s howContinue reading “Musings Over Coffee: #QuarantineLife Week 1 Update”
Here We Go: The Weekend Edition
What strange times we live in, eh? Today, LilDude’s school district announced that they would be closed for five weeks. Then hubby came home with a bad cough and later told me that he’s been experiencing aches and pains in the last week or so but chalked it up to all the painting he wasContinue reading “Here We Go: The Weekend Edition”
Update: Currently Down
As the title says, I’m currently down (again) with the remnants of the flu from last week. Maybe I shouldn’t have stopped taking the medicine, thinking I was fine because the congestion returned with a vengeance and boy, even my sinuses hurt a day ago. Through it all, I kept working, writing the first chaptersContinue reading “Update: Currently Down”
Lessons My Father Taught Me (or What Almost Was a Restaurant Review)
Tonight, I took LilDude to a new Filipino restaurant that just opened. He’s actually not into Filipino food but in the spirit of “adventure” and trying something new aka just get tf out of the house for a change, he agreed to go with me. I always tell him we need to support local businessContinue reading “Lessons My Father Taught Me (or What Almost Was a Restaurant Review)”
A Bit of Nature
Another day without a laptop or a computer… can you tell? Today, LilDude and I went hiking again. Our goal was to reduce his fear of “bugs” since the last time we hiked, he was running away from any “bug” that happened to cross his path be it a dragonfly or a butterfly. So IContinue reading “A Bit of Nature”
It’s Monday or Day 5 Without a Laptop…
Day 5 (or is it 6 because it feels like 6 or 60) without my laptop and I’m feeling the withdrawal symptoms already. Even though I can still type as fast on my wireless keyboard and write on my iPad since thank goodness, I have my trusty writing apps that work on both the MacbookContinue reading “It’s Monday or Day 5 Without a Laptop…”
Who Let the Dogs Out?
We attended a 50th birthday party of one of hubby’s friend last night. It was held in a beautiful 100-year-old home just a few blocks away and it was nice to finally put faces to the names of some of my hubby’s acquaintances and friends. Good food, good company, and interesting conversations, one that hasContinue reading “Who Let the Dogs Out?”
Procrastinating On the Beach
Today was procrastinating on the beach day. I was so tempted to just lay out a blanket and hang out for hours like I used to when I lived one block from the beach. I still live a mile away from the beach but we have a breakwater where I live, unlike Hermosa Beach whichContinue reading “Procrastinating On the Beach”
Merry Christmas!
To those who celebrate, Merry Christmas! The presents have been opened in our house at least and now it’s off to the grandparents’ house for lunch and the exchanging of presents. Last night, I found the phone number for NORAD so the Lil Dude could ask when Santa was going to deliver his present inContinue reading “Merry Christmas!”
