KL visit

I just booked a flight to Malaysia today for the travel period of September to November. I got to avail their Terminal 3 anniverary promo which is 50% off on all flights. Thanks to CEB we got the chance to visit Malaysia again.

Our original plan to visit is December this year to spend Christmas and New Year with hubby. But he called yesterday asking me to inquire for the promo. Since it is cheaper, we already grabbed the chance. Seems we will have two flights this year. We will be poorer by the end of this year. LOL!

thank you dora and barney

Today is a fine day for me. I finished my work at 2pm with the interrupted internet connection from time to time and my daughter distracting me from time to time. Seems like my DSL connection is giving me headache. But I was able to finish the assigned files just in time. Baby seems to be adjusting already with the situation. Thank you, Dora and Barney, you are my hero!

I know that one day I'm gonna used to this kind of set up for us. This is our schedule every Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday. Tuesday and Thursday, I have someone to look after baby's needs. But she is also off to school at 1pm. That would be easy for me though.

Life is easier if you know how to manage your time. I just hope baby will remain cooperative in the days to come.

my job

Hi! I had the chance to post today since I finished my work a bit early. Yehey!

By the way, I'm a homebased medical transcriptionist and at the same time babysitting my 2 and 6 months old daughter. See, I can serve two masters at the same time (just for now until I finally have someone to look after my baby). Yes, I am looking for a nanny so I can have quality work.

Got to go now. My other job is calling me.

the impulse buyer

Hi! I just came from the mall today. My sister wants to shop for shoes and she tagged me along, hehe. I don't have anything in mind to buy at the mall. Just pure window shopping (literally). I had fixed it in my mind before leaving the house that I would not spend on anything not necessary. I hope I can keep my distance to my favorite stalls. Food, it's fine.

When I go to the children's section, I was tempted to buy a disney design tee for my daughter. I was already scanning the parice at the back and I immediately scolded myself,. Wag na! dami pa nga nyang damit na di nagagamit. And in 6 months' time, she will soon outgrow it. Sayang, especially if the item is a little bit expensive. And to think that she will not use it for long since toddler years grow fast. I ended up not buying. Whew! what a relief.

Now, as I reviewed today's journey. I felt satisfied. Not having regrets on anything I shouldn't done. Maybe, next week I will have to challenge myself if i really changed this habit.

Just wondering, I just want to cure my allergy disease...money allergy..wehehe..hapi wikend!

another Monday

Hi! This is another Monday since start of my project -- cost cutting. hehe. I was able to fight this urge to go shopping at the mall. And I have a very valid reason for today. Thanks God for the transportation strike. To many this is a loss because they would not be able to go to work. I pity them, the employees out there commuting everyday for their work. This will definitely be a minus to their monthly salary. Blame it on the jeepney drivers. What they are demanding is for the benefit of us all. They are demanding for a gasoline rollback. Kelan kaya tayo makakabangon sa kahirapan. Seems like we will never had the chance . That is why i am doing my own way of cost cutting..dahil na rin sa tumitinding krisis..not only in our country but worldwide.

I want to do this first for my myself and also for my family.. I had been doing this since, my hobby of sort. I just wanted to save for the future, for my daughter's future. I just feel that now is the time to start this. Enough of those unnecessary things. I want to be more practical now. I'm still on the learning process of budgeting.

'Til my next blog! Have a happy week everyone.

Cost cutting

I am used to the routine of hanging around a mall every Monday. Whether I had an errand to do or no partucular things to buy I go out on this day. Since it is my off from work and being a work-at-home-mom, parang feeling ko I need to unwind. Imagine, the whole week I'm just in the house working and babysitting at the same time!

But today, I want to start my project -- cost cutting!..That is if I can really put my heart into this. I must be very disciplined with my spending. I already have a notebook which I keep as a journal of our daily expenses.

For a start, going to the mall is the number one that should be stopped. At least once or twice a week na lang and not every Monday. Because I am an impulse buyer and whenever I am at a store and something caught my attention and feeling ko bagay sa akin or sa anak ko, go!, bibilhin ko yan kahit di ko kailangan. And after that when I get home I regret that and at times di ko naman nagagamit. Ang sama ko noh?

Today, I am very happy because di ako lumabas..hehe. Timing din kasi my little girl's nanny was not availble. She has to attend a PTA meeting wih her daughter also. So, lucky me. Thanks talaga! How about on Monday, sana may reason ulit.

Well, let's see come Monday.

Have a nice week ahead!.

Ok. I'm signing out na. I need to recharge for today's routine.
