What a week

Horrible week, older one had an abdominal pain and diarrhea starting Monday afternoon most likely from the hamburger he had the night before at the airport.

Thursday late afternoon I had a terrible stomachache, throwing up twice no diarrhea. Possibly of eating something unclean from the lunch. I had almost 12 hours sleep/resting after.

Never this happened to me before, so scared, plea to God for help. Thank God that’s the first and only thing that came to my mind when this critical time like this.

Thank God I am able to go back to work the day after, which was a big day of my workplace, the first monthly birthday party for the seniors after the pandemic. That I can be there to celebrate and help out on this big occasion with them.

And glad that we weren’t sick at the same time so I could take care my son when he needed me.

Property Tax

Every year this time feels like finally saying some money in the end of the year. Then comes the property tax and then boom most of the savings gone.

Last week

Back from school for three days, well, technically, two days three nights.

It takes a lot of time for traveling back and go, also spending time with friends.

I bought the things he needs to bring back to school and the food he likes to eat.

That’s all part of the journey of growing up and growing old totally accepted and understood still a bit of gloom.

Birthday

The first time that both kids were out of town.

Wait until 12.01am texting them to wish them happy birthday, that’s mom!

There’s one day they will fly out this nest and have their own.

They can not only take good care of themselves, but also their significant ones.

Cleaning plus yard work

Another way to relax and anti-depression. Don’t forget to praise yourself doing a good job.

Volunteer

The best way to learn, grow, build your self image and such. It’s also full of laughter and tears.

And you never know that actually is a healing process for yourself when you are helping others.

Amazing!

Up north fire

By far the Mosquito Fire was 90% contained. That’s pray that it will be 100% contained soon and for the safety of everyone and everything that was affected by it especially for the rescue teams.

Tomatoes

The day when I drove back after dropping off my younger one from school. On the whole way home there were trucks with 2 trailers full with tomatoes driving south bound.

Now that every time whenever I saw the tomatoes at grocery shopping those images of big rigs came into my mind. Thinking how far were those tomatoes coming from.
