Life's Journey and Beyond

I salute to a soldier friend of mine, who never fails to come by whenever she is home. She is one amazing woman who chose a dangerous job to serve her country. Before she gets deployed she always come visit us which makes me so glad to see her looking well. She got a good taste too and that’s what I like about her. I like the military ring she has chosen at the military rings website section. They offered a pretty good selection so she got to chose the best kind. It looks great on her finger and I can see that she is so proud of it. I am so proud of her too for making sacrifices to serve her country.

Keeping up online into my blogging is getting so difficult these days in my end especially now that I have to travel back and forth between to my home town and here in the city. I have not have a steady internet connection in my home town just yet, so getting online is too impossible for now. Just imagine, it’s almost been a month since I posted here last. Not good at all. The thing is I can only update my blogs if I am in the city, but not always unfortunately since I got a lot in my hands already. I can only do so much. There were times that I thought of quitting into blogging because I couldn’t simply keep up with it anymore. I am way too behind that I can hardly think of anything to write. I wished nothing but this traveling back and forth will be over soon. And hopeful that by then we will have a regular internet connection in our new place so I could keep up my thing online. I hope we will be move in to our new place in about several weeks from now.

I am so amazed to one of my cousin who has been practicing a lot and learning how to use some of the music instruments. She is only (11) years old and already knows how to play guitar, piano and violin. And I have heard that she wants to try a clarinet reeds. According to her, this instrument it has a better sounds than most anything she had heard. She just like to explore like her dad who is a great guitarist in the family. I can see that he taught his daughter so well at such young age. So now he is looking the clarinet reeds at music123 since there are so many of them to choose from. He is not going to buy it anytime soon, but he just like to know its prices so he could save money for it first. Maybe for his daughter’s birthday he might manage to purchase for it. And that would be a great birthday present. I gotta admire those great musicians in the family!

My children and I will be visiting my folks for several days attending the festivities and the family reunion since the kids won’t have a class on Friday. I’m so excited to spend several days with my family in the jungle again. I just like the fact to breath some fresh air in the countryside where there is no pollution at all. It will be good for us all to be away from the crowded city for few days. That will surely helps me to think straight. And also, I could relax while over there because I have so many relatives who could watch my daughter for at least a little while. I certainly could use a break. My back it’s been killing me again which means I seriously need a break. The stress is really gets into me that I just can’t think straight. I don’t mean to sounds ungrateful, but if you are in my shoe you will understand why I want a short break. Looking after with so many kids sometimes is no fun job. And not to mention dealing with two strong heads boys. It is too hard raising children by myself. But I’m not complaining. I am just stressing how I feel at the moment. Anyway, I will resume my blogging once I get back in the city soon.

My grandfather is a type of person who appreciate everything and throws nothing away, even those broken or torn items especially old stuffs. He would always say that it has a sentimental value to it. He just like to keep everything especially the items that he worked so hard for it to have in his days. Like for example, he is still owns a very old stereo system in the house. If I’m not mistaken he has it since I was a small child, and up to this day he is keeping it in his bedroom. I find it so amazing. I know him and my grandmother used to listen music all day for their genre. They say, old stuffs are the good ones. But not to my grandfather’s children. They go for the latest which means they didn’t really care for the old stuffs anymore. One of my uncle is a great guitarist and a singer and so he always get the latest fender excelsior amp for a better quality sounds. He doesn’t want to be behind with his beloved hobby. Not just for a hobby though, most of the time he could put a good use to it in our small town. I’m just glad that somebody in the family got a talent for music.

Yay! Happy happy much! The kids passport has arrived in the mail the other day. So glad that it’s done and over with. Now we are going to take the biggest step. I need to call the embassy of what to do next! That would be challenging thing to do, but I don’t have a choice. I have to do it to able for us to process of the children’s paper work. I felt like my stay here is long overdue and I just want to go home. Home is where the husband is! I so miss my better half, and so I am excited to go home with my kids. Hopefully, this year! It has been a long journey for us all but I know we are going through this. In God’s Will!!!
