a birthday to remember
This birthday definitely was! For one thing, I turned 3-0! Gosh, even writing that down felt so...weird. When I was sixteen 30 was ancient. So here I am, all ancient, and STILL feeling as uncertain as a teenager when it comes to certain things!
Mark surprised me with dinner at Fish & Co (YUM!YUM!) in Trinoma--it's actually an entire belt of ( Read more... ) -
mother's day...
...Is one of those a-little-more-challenging-to-get-through days for me. Yesterday was particularly difficult as I had greeted all my friends and acquaintances who were mothers. I got quite a number saying, "Thanks! Happy mother's day to yours, too!"
And I never know what to do when that happens. So I end up not responding.
I don't like to make ( Read more... ) -
One more tickbox in a shopping list
A new TV, I mean. I'm very sorry to say ours (a many-many-year-old one we spirited away from Ayala Heights) has a tendency to blush--causing my favorite anime character or Barney in How I Met Your Mother to have an onscreen sunburn. It goes away after a hefty whack or two on the top of the TV, but for someone who takes 45 minutes to get out of bed ( Read more... ) -
all about NSD
Before I get into detail about NSD, some CT stuff--am currently working on an LO for Dianne Rigdon's new collab kit with Doris:

Whole & Still A Part of Something
I like reading personal blogs a lot--it's crazy how many are in my Google Reader--because aside from the nitty gritty details of a person's life, I can catch things that ring true for me. Case in point: it's linked in Aggie's blog here, but her entry how marriages involve two people reminded me of my two months alone while Mark was in Virginia last ( Read more... ) -
For Aggie's post-NSD contest! *Still* on an NSD high
That's National Scrapbooking Day to the uninitiated. My adventures in digiland last May 3 definitely merit a post, which I will do tomorrow as tonight I'll be compiling my gadzillion purchases (okay, a modest gadzillion) into my EHD and computer as well as do a full accounting for how much I spent exactly. In the meantime, Aggie has generously ( Read more... ) -
*huff huff* marathon post
No, I haven't dropped off the face of the earth. Been having too much work, too much stress (work- and family-wise) and not enough sleep. I need a vacation. I need a laptop. And unlimited WiFi. And maybe a month of free time :D Warning: following is a more-or-less stream-of-consciousness blog entry on what's been happening, at least for the last ( Read more... ) -
(Untitled)
Actually finished another LO and am working on yet another one. Caught this survey in Aggie's blog and had to jump in, hehe. :D

How long did you date? Went steady (wow, do people still call it that?) for six years, though no formal courtship.
How old is he? 29.
Who eats more? Him
Who said “I love you” first? Him--and we were just talking about this ( Read more... ) -
another one :)
Really, sometimes the greatest inspiration comes from the photo you use when you scrap. An officemate sent me a photo of her niece's chubby weettle feet. It's given me a new insight as to why so many of the greatest scrappers are mothers-they have the best inspiration :)
