Sweet Sixteen! Today!
Alas, all we have are memories. Great memories!
Jake misses you ~ because Jake misses the time he steals your share of the food bowl. haha!
I miss you because you were such a part of our family. Adaptable, malleable, and just one awesome ’people’ cat. Everyone who knew you, loved you. Except maybe the one [...]

I’m Still Sad!

Hello! My name is Jake!
I’m the only cat around now. I miss my cat friend, Tom. I’m having difficulty adjusting to this loneliness. To divert attention, I lick myself to oblivion. If not for the loving care of my human caregivers, I would be hairless by now.
Where is he? Where did he go?
His birthday is [...]

My Precious had just had a birthday Monday. As always, he wanted a quiet celebration. So unlike his younger days, when 10 or more little terror guests, mostly boys, were invited. Now, it’s only a family affair.
Last Saturday, part of his gifts was to drive him anywhere he wanted. There was a limit to distance, of course. He [...]

Hey folks! I’m still around! Don’t go away!
I apologize for not posting for…..over a month?! Such a shame, huh? My website must have gotten soooooo boring, I can understand if my readers (who were few to begin with) decided to abandon me.
So, what have I done during my blog absence? Nothing really boring, mind you. [...]
Gift Cards: They Matter

By now, everyone had either liked their holiday presents and are very happy with them; while others had to return or exchanged them. This year, gift cards were the big winners when it came to gift-giving. Gift card was the non-thought searching, easiest way to give someone who were either hard to give to, or didn’t know [...]

Xmas Package to the Sibs
Posted in family, gifts, holidays on Thursday, December 18, 2008 | 1 Comment »
A box has been sitting around since mid-November waiting to be filled. I thought I’d fill it up with Christmas goodies for my siblings, Lola and ’mga pamangkin’ (the nieces).
The box is quite ready to be mailed out when the snow and chilly weather struck. Sorry sibs and Lola! This package may be delayed getting to you [...]
You Miss My WHAT?

My Precious (Mi Cielo!; mi hijo precioso) has been gone from home over a month now. He had moved out to test the waters of independence. He seems happy whenever I see him. He has been invited to home dinners about 3-4 times during that duration. He would come in to pick up his mail. [...]
Finally!

Officially…
Yup, My Precious has reached one of his milestones in life.
October 26th. Very Important Day. Always.
This precious person has impressed upon people to be low-keyed, subdued, humble, gentle and very private. He exudes an inner intellectual that he guards closely, but surprises us on occasions he lets his guard down. He rarely smiles on cue. [...]
He’s Leaving Home

My one and only. My only child. My Son. My Precious. He’s leaving home. He’s leaving the nest.
For a month now, I’ve been feeling sad, mixed with glee. It’s a teeter-totter kind of feelings.
It’s not that he’s going to be far away. It’s not that he’s going to live by himself. There will be 2 [...]
