After the Rain

thoughts of Mye | Labels:

Month of July is about to end and I’m expecting a lot this coming August.  Well, aside from the fact that it’s my birth month, I know it will be a very busy month for me.  Big events at work, social life, family, friends and acquaintances will make me busy and I’m hoping for a fruitful outcome.  I’m praying for hubby’s life changing decision at work.  I always told him that I’ll go wherever he wants to go.  I will always be his sidekick, his shoulder to lean on and a friend plus a wife to talk to.  If God gave him the sign and His blessings, I told him not to waste another opportunity and he should grasp it firmly in his hands. 

I’m so glad that my brother surpassed his challenges, too.  It was mind blowing for the whole family and I stop the urged to confront his wife when she leaves a message to my face book account asking for sympathy.  I love my brother but I told him that I need more time.  And he understands where I am coming from and he never pressed on the matter anymore.  He will always be the best brother in the world for me, no more whys and what. :D

75

thoughts of Mye | Labels: ,

Papa turned 75 years old yesterday and I took a leave of absence from work to celebrate another year with him.  My other siblings did the same way too and we said we shouldn’t let Papa know that we were all coming together but my Mom had a slip of a tongue and told our father that we will coming over that morning. Ha-ha!
It was just a simple celebration, we cook Papa’s favourite dishes, grilled pork and eggplant, chopseuy and pansit and he requested for fruit salad which I made it the other night and my brother from Qatar called to say his birthday wish and he said he’s in charge with the red wine. 
We planned to do the same with my Mama next month.  Well, we have 3 birthday celebrations this August including me and my twin nephews and our mother.  This means more party to come and I will look forward to it.

New Recipes

thoughts of Mye | Labels:


I know I’ve told everybody who knows me years ago that I’m happy and contented with my life that I ever forgot that I’m quite heavy for years now.  Well, I don’t want to call myself fat because I’m not.  I always thought that I’m not getting younger and that’s why my metabolism is not that fast anymore.  But the truth is I think it is something to do with the way I eat, my choice of foods and myself discipline.  No matter how I tried not to eat that much, I can’t stop the urge when I’m in front of the table and forget everything. 



So my hubby suggests that I should think about my heath right now.  I can’t take the risk of getting into trouble just because I am not eating the right food.  So he introduced me to his friend that is into slow carb recipes that makes wonder to her daily life now.  She’s urging me it to give it a try but she doesn’t know that it is part of my plan and I’m browsing the net to know more about it.  I just need to start it slowly and maybe I can replace our daily menu one at the time.  I know it will work for me.

Healing Stage

thoughts of Mye | Labels:


We bump with an old friend last week.  No, he’s more than an old friend, we consider him like one of our family.  And things get rough and we parted ways not knowing what went wrong.  He’s closest to my hubby and he loves my parents so much and my nephew who he particularly raised for 6 years.  He never forgets.  When he meets my Mom and my sister the last time, he cried while reminiscing the old times.  He said he never wanted to go and distance himself to us, but he thinks it’s the right way so things won’t be that complicated anymore.



I keep on thinking on what happened, we really did bond with him not just on the things he could and he can give us.  He considers us his family because all his family and relatives are living abroad.  So when we parted our ways, it was so painful that he planned to dissolve his company and go back to the US and stay there forever.  He’s asking for a sign from God and then He gave him the sign and he aborted the plans.  When my hubby and I are talking last night about him, I felt the pain, I also felt that long time ago and I hate the feeling that it’s all going back as if the wound is still fresh.  I wish we could all back to good.  But I know I’m wishing for the impossible.  Things will never be the same again and I just pray that he’ll forgive and forgets.  If we can heal the wounds on his behalf, we would do it. May our God Lord help him to move on and heal his broken heart.

Wedding News

thoughts of Mye | Labels:


My cousin was ecstatic on the happy news that she and her boyfriend is finally engaged and that she called me on the wee hours of the morning just to tell me all about it.  I am so happy for her because they’ve been in a relationship for almost 3 years and everybody is quite anxious to see them walking down the aisle together.


So when she broke the news to us, everybody gets excited and starts planning for the big event.  Well, I told them they have to check the venue first and choose that is memorable to them.  They both weigh to consider some outside wedding venues.  Just like when we are planning for my wedding few years back, I carefully and meticulously choose the reception and the church that are conveniently located in a place not too far from each other.  


But my cousin told me that her future husband is considering an Estate Wedding and that too is on their plans.  I told them just to weigh all the pros and cons and they have to work together so to avoid the rush and the stress of planning.  I just want them to enjoy and feel the excitement as they move to the next chapter of their lives.

Patience is a Virtue

thoughts of Mye | Labels:

Month of July! And we are few months away from the BER month again.  There were things that happened to us and to my family for the past 6 months and I am trying to make things easier for all of us, until now.  Well, my Dad will be celebrating his 75th year this July 12 and I can only wish we can all celebrate with him that day.

It’s not easy to be me – as the song goes.  I would like to think it's true.  I handled things differently and I know some people may not like or get used to it.  But inside this tough woman comes with a child that dreamt of having a wonderful life full of hearts and roses. Oh, I'm imagining things again. But you know sometimes, my fantasy runs wild and I regret not enhancing my chance and opportunity to be a romance novel writer.   This way I can channel my imaginations and put that on writings and I may get lots of money with it.  One day I will try to write again and let my friends know about it.

I wish I can turn back hands of time.  I might have another chance to right some things that may have gone wrong because I didn’t do my best and I didn’t think otherwise and intelligently.  But I always turn to God in case I don’t really know to deal with it. I always lay all my cards to Him. And I’m still waiting for His answers.  And I wanted Him to know, I never stop waiting.
