Crunch Time

Two weeks.... two weeks to go and its my bestfriend's wedding, an event that we've been preparing since January. All our calendars are filled up, calls and appointments being made left and right. We're trying our best to finish everything 3 days before the event so the bride and groom will have time to relax.

But the best thing with this wedding preparation is that it brings people closer together during crunch time. You reconnect with old friends you haven't seen for sometime and start doing things you used to do during your highschool days. I cant wait for the scheduled song rehearsals bec that would mean seeing Joanne, Rex, Mayeeh and I sing again just like the good old days.

So for now, it's countdown time until my bestfriend Mayeeh walks down the aisle.....

Sick .... again

Yup, here I am, blogging in while following doctor's orders to rest for another 3 to 5 days otherwise i'll be forced to rest in the four walls of the hospital.

For others its a welcome change but if you've been sick on and off for weeks now its no longer fun. The only advantage is I get to spend time with my little princess. From sun up to sun down, we are glued together but when her daddy arrives, i take the back seat for awhile until the two gets into a fight... you know what they say, like poles repel.

Staying home would be nice if and only if you're not bothered with a thousand and one things. But when your mind is swamped with a lot of things, its difficult being alone because most often than not you get depressed.... which is probably what i'm going thru right now.

If i only i have a magic wand.... i would request for lots of money so all my problems would go away.. and lastly, request for a brand new heart that is not tired and drained....

Sick and Tired

It's Monday morning, just had my cup of coffee and a slice of bread.... i've got the house to myself until my little princess woke up... so now i'm sharing the house w/ her and barney.

And yes, its the first day of the week and yet here i am at home... no i'm not lucky that i got the day off ( how i wish)... but instead, i'm home because i'm sick, again. Two weeks ago i was down with acute sinusitis and bronchitis and had to rest for a couple of days but due to lack of finances, i was not able to complete the prescribed dosage of antibiotics. I thought i was strong enough and could manage to bounce back but due to old age and stress, here i am again coughing my lungs out, and worse with a higher dosage of meds and not to mention more expensive. My bosses are not happy with my current state, and i'm sure i wont be happy either when i see my paycheck (although i stil have my sick leave credits i will no longer be eligible for the attendance incentive )

So how am i doing right now ??? I'm sick and tired ..... i guess the reason why i'm getting more sickly is because i am really stressed out... drained out is a more appropriate word to describe how i feel . I am drained physically, emotionally, spiritual and financially. Its very difficult trying to be strong for everybody to keep you afloat but when you get tired and wants to rest, there's no one you can turn to to help you out. i've come to a point of seriously thinking of letting go.... hoping that if i finally let go, i could rest and gather my bearings....

but how does one let go ?

SAVED BY FRIENDS

How many times in the past have i turned to my dear friends for help especially when it comes to financial problems.... friends who were always there willing to help no matter what ... Friends who never asked why was i in need or when will i pay up... Friends who never keep tab of how many times they were there for to hold my hand through rough times.... friends like Agatha, Vanessa, Ate Paz, Kuya Son, Dadders, My Partner in Crime Marue, Mayeeh, Ambo, Tita A, Bel, Cherie, Shao etc.... its a very long list but these people occupy the top space simply because they are a just a txt/call away.

And lately, two friends with golden hearts have saved me through rough waters (again) .. Joanne and Michelle whom i havent seen for quite sometime. I really owe these people big time for helping tide things over and God knows how grateful i am that there were there to help out. If it werent for them, most likely i'm still at a lost.... I know after all these trials and challenges, i will end up a Big Winner because of the friends i've got ...

I know i am so loved by the Big Boss in Heaven because I am Blessed with TRUE AND BEAUTIFUL FRIENDS....
