Our New Simple Life

 Its been four days since we moved from south forbes to here in san pedro. Its quite challenging the moving out considering the number of stuff we got through the years. But thank God it was smooth and we only brings the essentials and all the heavy furnitures was left in the care of my friend. Those things that we don't need are in our attic. Life is full of uncertainties and we never know we might return there. In the meantime, we're just enjoying the simple life that we have and i feel closer to my family. I think its God's plan for us to be near our loved ones and enjoy the simple joys of life. Anyway, we are still a part of the SF community and we can still attend events/gatherings there, we are just half an hour and a private message away. In the meantime, we still go for lunchouts at a nearby mall and we are still in the process of exploring more areas for dining and shopping. Its just a matter of adjustment but we are flexible people and its not a big problem.

Merry Christmas Everyone !!!

 I want to greet everyone a merry and a blessed Christmas. Last year we hardly felt the spirit of Christmas because of the corona virus. The true essence of this holiday season is more on giving, forgiving and sharing. Lets not forget our brothers and sisters who have less in life and prayers to those who are affected by super typhoon Odette. And may love and happiness reigns in every families on earth...

Dirk's Birthday and Christmas Party

 Yesterday, Dirk celebrated his 66th birthday and at the same time our annual Christmas party. Dirk is a picture of a happy celebrant while the kids enjoyed the gifts, cash and parlor games. It was just a simple celebration but what is important is the essence of Christmas. 

Christmas Gift

 I considered myself a San Pedro resident because i am a registered voter there and had applied for national identification card using our residence address. In our more than 3 decades of our residency there, it is our first time to receive a 25 kilo rice from our municipal mayor Baby Cataquiz, maybe because of the incoming election next year??? Anyway, its a big help for my children and we feel a little bit christmas spirit....

Belle's Birthday

 My eldest daughter Rose Belle turned another milestone in her life. She just celebrated her simple 40th birthday with family and close friends. I am very proud of her achievements in life being a good mom and daughter. I am a witness to all her hardships and sacrifices for her kids and family. I run out of words to describe her kindness, humility and the unending love and support to us her family. To you anak, May the Lord continue to bless you with good heart and wishing you more blessings and happiness. Me and daddyow loves you so much...

Lhed & Budz Vacation is Over

 Astrid and Buddy are now back in Qatar after almost a month of vacation here in the Philippines. I think they were really able to maximize their stay here spending quality time with friends and family.  For the first time, they were also able to stay at their own home , the fruit of their hardships. They are back to reality working again soon for some future dreams and projects.  Anyway, they were able to accomplish a lot of things from charity, meeting friends, hotel staycations with family, doing something for the house and more. From the bottom of our hearts, we thanked both of them for their gifts to us and their unconditional love and support.

By the way, i also have a me time pampering myself and a time for our royal doggie king...
