Still Stuck at Home and Surviving

-


Be careful what you wish for, that's what they always say! For many years, we've kept ourselves busy juggling between work and family time. I've been secretly wishing and hoping there's a way that I can be a work from home mom again. And then this pandemic happened and somehow unconventionally fulfilled that wish! We eventually got stuck working from home. Yes, thank God, we still have work despite this global pandemic! Students had to be home schooled, too. Almost everyone got stuck at home because of this COVID pandemic; and if ever we have to be outdoors for some reason, we had to make sure we're taking the usual health and safety precautions. We can't enjoy morning walks, even just within the neighborhood, without having to social distance from other people and wear masks.


I'm not sure if I should be happy my secret wish somehow got fulfilled for over a year now, but ending up working from home because of a pandemic is not something I would ever wish at all. If only there's a way to "unwish", right? No, I don't really think this pandemic has anything to do with my wish. God has allowed these things to happen for a reason. When will this be over? We do not know yet. So, for now, like we always do, let's embrace life's uncertainties and let God take over. I'm sure He will be with us as we walk through this life. As always, He will get us through this. Let's keep the faith!

the need for a dining room set

-
When I was a child, my mom used to tell me that she really believed that dreams can come true and that if I really pray and wish to have something with all of my heart, I just might get it at the right time. What she had wished for at that time was a beautiful house with an orchard. We would take a stroll together and then we would stare at the exact house that she liked and then wished long and hard for it. Even though that dream never got fulfilled during her lifetime, I believe that her dream was more than fulfilled UP there. Well, anyway, even though our house was nothing like the house that my mom dreamed about having, I still am thankful that we have settled here. My dream is for us to finally be able to make the improvements on it someday. Also, I've been wanting to get us a new Dining Room Set. I've seen the need to own one because when my in-laws or my family would come over, we could not get them properly seated during dinner time. It seems like it will take awhile

married life - how's your listening skills?

Many times I wonder if there is really some truth to that thing called "7-year itch" in marriage. I heard it is that stage when couples will purportedly experience too much familiarity with each other that would somehow cause a serious stir in their relationship. Like most people, that is not something that I look forward to happening in the next 2 years. Of course, I would like to believe that there is no such thing as a "7-year itch". Without sounding too presumptuous, I asked someone I know who's been married for more than 20 years if she has experienced that stage of her married life, although I am aware that not all marriages/relationships are the same. She kind of told me that it's normal for couples to have differences despite the love they have for each other. She told me that right now, though, the challenges in their married life started popping up again now that her husband appears to have lost the sharpness of his hearing. Many times, their arg
