Birthday Month!

Yes, it's my birthday month :) birthday week actually as my birthday is on Saturday. I'm turning a year older again and hopefully a lot wiser.

I don't have any plans of celebrating (I guess when you get old, you do away with birthday plans and celebrations anymore) but my friend is inviting us over for a weekend gathering at their home, we might have a dip at the swimming pool in their clubhouse also. Swimming!! yes, it's very summer here already. Gone are the cold days. 

I notice also that as you age, you expect less and less about life or should I say, you now  know how to manage your expectations, am not expecting any gift from my husband because something came up in his office (not a good one) and it caused us a slight set back in our finances, I'm sure if not with the incident he will buy me a gift or maybe he could have bought for himself evh amplifiers at guitar center, but it's okay and I do understand. His love is one great gift and is more than enough already :)

And besides the love of my husband, I also have my family and friends-they are such a sweet blessing that money cannot buy. I can't afford to sulk and have pity party because I know I am blessed.

For sure it will be a happy happy birthday for me :)

My realistic birthday wish list

The first one I made is really a “wish” list, I wanted to make a list that I hope to have finish by the end of my birthday month as I am sure I’ll not be able to have or do them all on or before my birthday which is only 5 more days to go.

1. I want to pamper my self, nails, hair , a spa or a massage and a facial treatment. I need that badly na kasi I look so old and I feel so ugly na.
2. A new pair of jeans
3. A new flat shoes
4. a good book to read
5. one trip to a nice restaurant with hubby of course

We are really on the tipid mode these days because of the mission’s trip so I am willing to wait. Anyways, the trip itself is a precious gift na. We’re traveling right after the day of my birthday.

Wish with me dear friends or better yet pray with me.

Early Birthday Blues

6 days to go before my birthday..

and I don’t know what’s happening to me…because I usually don’t have issues about my birthdays..I used to wait for it with eager anticipation specially during our AGL days..because my birthday means one big celebration in the house..friends from Midway and AGL will plan about this weeks before..what to cook as pulutan, who will cook and what to drink…but life is different now..for one, I have long forgotten alcohol..and second I don’t live in AGL now.

so why am I having this kind of feeling?

Could it be because I’m again getting a year older and still no baby news yet? Not even a hint of conception or whatsoever?????

And everyone as in everybody that knows me and my husband keep on asking about us getting pregnant???

And every time my tummy aches..someone will quote..uy baka buntis ka na? ”hindi po..medyo masama lang po talaga tiyan ko”…..

I’m turning 35 soon…Mom had me when she was 34..and I was the youngest in the family. My eldest sister had her first born when she was 34 and they have 2 kids now..

I love my life now..the turn around of things for me..from a life of no direction to a purpose driven life..God has indeed in control..and I’ve just got to re-assure my self with that.
