Update: April 1st Birthday 2018

Like every year, April 1st is a special day for this family: Both my kids share the same birthday with my mom - 3 April Fools. LOL

It was fruitfully spent together and that's the most important thing. We got what we wanted (it took about 2 days, but well worth the endless waiting and checking), ate at our favorite restaurant (it was a buffet and the kiddos definitely ate as much as they can!), and just chilled out.

Like my son said, 'It's a very fruitful, happy birthday'. I agree. =)

My request for a #birthday #selfie #wefie with the boys were met! It took only 12 takes. Lol! The boys turning 18 and 16 this year and I sometimes wonder how, when, and what. It's not always an easy journey but we made it this far and we only have to concentrate on doing our best. That's all that is required. To fall, get up, cuddle, say you're sorry and repeat. I am forever blessed to be so loved. Happy birthday to the 2 wonderful men in my life

We would normally have a simple dinner with my side of the family too to commemorate the birthdays together with my mom but my nephew is down and out with HFM disease so, he had to be kept away from the other little ones in the family. Hence, we decided to postpone the birthday dinner to next weekend when the babies and toddlers in the family are all in the clear.

Sometimes, things are best kept simple and to-the-point, without the fanfare and drama. Hope everyone had a blessed Easter weekend!

XOXO,
Marsha

Stargazer - Stretch Those Sides

I have been doing this pose, part of Cosmic Dance (a type of yoga, I am assuming), called Stargazer pose without knowing it is called Stargazer's pose a lot in the past. You see, sometimes, I don't follow the rules and come up with my own stretches and poses. It is fun. I have on some music, nice, soothing music or just anything I can click on. Then I go with the flow, letting my hair down. Just moving to the music...and that is when I come up with the above Stargazer's pose. This pose really stretches your sides. Keep your eyes on the outstretched hand if you are keeping it pointed to the top, as if you are waving or connecting to a higher energy from the Universe. Your arms will ache a little but hey, toned arms, here you come! :-) For those who want a bigger stretch, it is safe to slowly and gently move the lifted hand towards your back...don't overdo it, listen to your body's complaints and respect it. You don't have to prove anything to anyone, reme...

Maid Side-Kick

I was kind of a little sad when I read the news about this - there will be no live-in Indonesian maids in Malaysia anymore . There are pros and cons to having a live-in maid, as with everything else, but for us, we enjoyed more pros than cons. Back then, when my kids were little, we brought in a family of maids to help with...well, just about everything, and we were like two families merged into one. They ate what we ate, we sleep, they sleep, we shop, they shop, they joke, we laugh, we joke, they laugh...for me, the maid I hired was more like a sister and side-kick to me. For that few years, I was dependent on her to mind-read my schedule and when I need or don't need help. She picked things up quickly and we ended up having lots of moments whereby we were in sync. Today, two of them are on my Facebook and we were gleefully chatting over Facebook Messenger since they've just discovered the wonders of the Internet and Social Media. Since we were more like partners in crim...

Drunk People Cannot Make Comments on Blogs

OK, here's the thing with this image thing....you don't want people to design robots or programs or spiders or cockroaches or whatever to spam blogs and websites. I understand that. In fact, I am all for it. It's annoying to have spambots come in and post one liners like.... Can't get it up? Try this website. Top quality Viagra for low pricing. Value discount if bought inbulk. Or the most common ones would be.... Want a completely paid-for holiday with your family and coming home to a villa beside the sea before taking a spin in your luxury car. Then you have to read this! It's amazing! Within three weeks, you will get $32,000 in your account. Within a month, whether you like it or not, we'll bank in $65,498 into your bank account. Within six months, you're a f*%#@* royalty. I don't like that....and I assuming you don't like that either, right? If you have a popular blog, you get even worse stuff like hate mails, awful comments or people who ...
