I went to work with a heavy feeling this morning. My eyes look swollen as per my officemates’ observation. I felt so feverish with a very bad headache. In the past days,  I have also been feeling uneasy because of my nose. Clogged. Congested. After a thorough check, I was diagnosed with Sinusitis and Vasomotor Rhinitis. As per the doctor’s findings, inside is already swollen and irritated. The latter is no more a surprise to me. I had the same problem 5 years ago when I was still in Bahrain. Mine is triggered more with a cold weather and temperature changes. I was just wondering after so many years why am I getting the same problem to think Philippines is a tropical country.

Does it also mean I am going to Manila soon? Iris, do you read this? LOL!

Looks like this idea of having cart and vending machine franchises never left me. On my way to Cignal this afternoon, I have met a lady who is around 50 years old. She approached me while I was waiting for the guy from Cignal and handed over a leaflet. She is into cart franchise and vending machine business.

I suddenly remembered the one day “cart” adventure I had with Iris and Gab. Sorry photos have already been deleted by Imageshack. That time I was really planning to get one but then I had a hard time finding the perfect location plus I got too busy preparing for our travel to India. In short, I didn’t have enough time to do it all by myself and when I got back I was luckily hired and went back to the corporate world. While I was at the peak of my employment, Read more »

Indeed, last week has been the most highest paid and blessed week in my blogging history. Let me list them down one by one:

• I first sold Mary Kay Php9k worth, with the help of my mom who patiently took the school mommies orders for me. In return, as they always say “share your blessings”, I am not charging my mom of her last Cleansing bar order.
• I was lucky to have been offered links by Andrew of Drivenetwork. Thanks to Kaye for sharing Andrew with us. Of course, I have also shared this opp to my other fellow mommies.
• As always, Sheriff had been very good to us all PU2Bloggers and they never fail to make our weekends happier.
• Lastly, my name was picked as the first prize winner in the recent announcement of Pinay Mommy Online Thanksgiving Giveaways Winners.
