No More Petsa De Peligro for Me!

It's the 9th. Two more nights, and it's payday. Eons ago, when my soon to be spouse was still living with us, i would already see signs of poverty and/or zero balance by this time. Sometimes, when it's worse, the signs are already present the very next day after my payday. With all the bills that are due, loan payments, groceries to cover our kids' nappies and milk... My salary is already gone even before it reaches my pocket. LOL


No matter how i carefully track our expenses and liquidate all cash outs, I would always come up with either a negative or zero balance.

But that's history! Hehe...

At present, I am working for only one family, at last. My family. That is-- my three kids, and my mohmmee. Mom acts like my better half now. :) So my salary from my regular job takes care of the grocery, allowance and bills. And the rakets take care of the savings/ a.ka. emergency funds.

I always make healthy alternatives to maintain a frugal living. You can't expect me to buy anything expensive. Alam nyo yan!

My Birthday 2013

I have recently turned ===toot tooot===! Lol


I have celebrated this with my loved ones. Ngayon na lang uli ako nag-celebrate ng birthday na totoong, honest to goodness, super happy puso!

06/28. Visited Alabang with Mom and the kids.  My plan was to have our lunch at Cravings in Molito but the kids (and my mother dear) insisted on eating at Jollibee.

Then we visited Tita Lia @ SummerPointe.

Then off to The District for Metro's opening.

Wala naman. We just did our usual grocer stuff then uwi na din. It was not a good idea pala doing your grocery on the supermarket's opening. All aisles are crowded and it was super queueing at the counter. Binusog ko na lang eyes ko sa mga delights ng Suisse Cottage:




And while Mom was on queue at the counter, Aton had a photo op with Virginia Hotdog's mascot:

Anika was not on mood for the op. She was tired na kase. Kaya ayan.. 
06/29. A Visit to Tita Ginny's



 06/30. A Dinner with a good friend. :)

Gaya ng nabanggit ko kanina, this was one of the bestest birthdays I have ever had. I am blessed with a wonderful family, and a lot of good friends. At never Nya talaga akong pinabayaan.
