Things I love: - being able to wash large loads of laundry at one time Things I hate, or okay, strongly dislike : And a lawyer to boot. You won’t usually see “Filipino”, “lawyer”, “writer”, and “understands Catholic teaching” all in the same sentence. Add to that he’s got an understanding of how contraceptives REALLY work. But hey, there’s always got to be a first time for everything, right? Contraception and Abortion A small excerpt, but you do [...] Only Pinoys would get THIS passionate about food. Yup, believe it or not — this song is about a guy walking into a restaurant and not getting any of the things he wants from the menu. It’s the nearest thing to “hard rock” you’ll ever see on this blog. And talk about uninhibited. [...] My hubby does the taxes in our household — bless his heart — since our move to Ohio our taxes have been less complicated and we haven’t needed H&R Block like we did in the past, but still, I wouldn’t want to do it myself.

I think I should follow my dd’s example and have a new category: Brain Dump, and password-protect everything, just so I’m not inflicting my no-direction posts on readers…. I often wonder why people come here since the comments box is usually empty. Not that I mind really, when I was blogging mostly food I [...] This week has been spent in my 9-yo’s room — decluttering, reorganizing, etc. Here’s Spidey, back in his domain, celebrating with a dance on Migi’s finally-clean bedroom carpet.

So I’m allowed to have a little fun with Spidey, don’t [...] I don’t know what these are (yet) or I’ve forgotten; they’re right in the front yard welcoming guests [...] There is no excerpt because this is a protected post. |
