Blogging in

It's sunday morning once again and i just had my coffee and crackers for starters. I'm killing time so i can head off to the grocery to buy more coffee and usual stuff.....

so here i am infront of my precious computer, " blogging in" after checking my mails and reading my friends' blogs and something really struck me this morning... if i may borrow a dear friend's line in her blog so i can share it with everyone else

"Happiness is a choice and our disposition is more important than our circumstances" ...

This made me think twice about what i'm going through right now.True, our disposition spells a big difference in handling things. For the past weeks, I've been stressed out because i've been worried sick of our finances and since we're just starting our business, our cash flow is really tight and sometimes looks like going nowhere. I have debts to settle left and right and couldnt figure out how to balance things but i know somewhere, somehow things will fall into place like they always do. its just a matter of having the right disposition so i can be guided and handle things properly.

And speaking of disposition.... Last week i had a chance to meet up with an old friend Joanne, whom i haven't seen for quite sometime. We've been best buddies during our highschool and college years but we've lost touch when we got busy with our careers and personal lives. Luckily one afternoon on my way home i chanced upon her along eastwood and it turned out we worked in the same area and decided to have coffee.... I really had a great time spending an hour with her and i couldnt help but admire how strong and beautiful this friend of mine is. Despite the family problems she's going through with one of her siblings , she remains calm and always with a smile. Her disposition in handling her load keeps her feet on the ground and keeps her sane. And to top it all, Joanne has 2 wonderful kids, a husband and a mother in law to take care, a full time job from 5pm to 2am and finishing up a nursing course on the side. For me, this girl is a superwoman !!!! And i know she'll always be blessed and be guided because of her beautiful heart ! Love you , Jo !!!!

Our New "BABY"

Its true that when God closes a door, He opens a window.... and that's what happened to us after Benjie's work in 22nd (unfortunately, the saga over 22nd is not yet over and may take a while but we're not giving up.. we'll give them a tough fight they'll never forget)

While looking for other business opportunities, we stumbled upon a canteen space in the nearby BJMP Office which is a stone throw away from our apartment. Luckily, everything fell into place and before we knew it, we were preparing for a new chapter in our life... becoming a full time entrepreneur. When we first saw the space we were not thrilled and we knew there's a lot of work to do but after scrubbing, fixing the tables and adding my Mom's crossstitch pieces, we have somehow transformed the place into our very own Bite Factory Canteen. We're still in the process of putting things into order and waiting for the business to pick up ...and we know we're getting there.....

This is truly our new Baby because Benjie and I are spending more time and effort into this project but we know its worth it because at the end of the day, we know all the fruits of these endeavor will benefit the whole family especially our precious princess, Julia.
