Power is still out and I suddenly miss my parent’s place. Coz if we were there at this time, I would be outside enjoying an afternoon walk but not on the street or I would go for a walk to the church grounds nearby and enjoy the sunny afternoon in the shade of course. I remember it is windy out there so no need to worry much because of the heat this afternoon. Yes it is hot in here already with summer season here. Okay the lil boy is asleep I’ll take a quick afternoon walk outside. It’s not as hot anymore with the sun going down with more shade outside. Come on let’s take a walk!
It must be exam week already for I could hear the kids playing outside which makes me think it must be a couple of weeks till they will be officially on summer vacation. Coz they usually still have classes at this hour in the afternoon but I could hear them running and playing outside already.
Well on the other hand, they should not be running around outside, they should be at home studying or taking an afternoon nap. Oh well kids these days they are more to have fun than study given a lot of distractions. But since there is no electricity here right now and they could not play with their PC games (instead of studying eh!), I guess that is why they’re just playing outside in the heat of the sun this afternoon. But once their parents get home from work, they really must study! Kids must know there is always time for play and study.
The lights are out as well as the electricity that started exactly at two this afternoon. Hubby had told me earlier this morning that there will be a power outage scheduled from 1PM to 5PM today.

Yes it is a sacrifice but it somehow a blessing in disguise as it gives us time to focus on other things which people may be taking for granted everyday. I am not only talking about mother earth but I am also talking about the little things that we could do if we stay away from our life “online” if you know what I mean. Read the rest of this entry »
My boys and I had our pizza night for family bonding time tonight. After the anticipated mass we attended we went to Yellow Cab in Damosa and then after that we hopped to Ice Giants where the lil boy had his fave french fries. While waiting for our order, the lil boy was pointing to the unique lighting fixture hanging on the ceiling near the cashier and he was really fascinated by it. You can also say I was fascinated by the design of that particular lighting. I’ll try to ask next time where they got that. Actually my first time to see that design.
