On March 8, we will be celebrating our wedding anniversary, and though we don’t romanticize that much, this is a good reason for a weekend get away.. So here are the finalist for our destination this weekend: Tagaytay, breakfast at Bag of Beans.. but there is no place where the kids can enjoy as much as they want to. They want to go biking. Biking range in Tagaytay is no good, dusty and almost all bikes are in not so good condition, plus the rates are killers. Los Banos, hmm why not, but what can we do there? run wild and free on the fields (is it allowed?) sneak in taking a shot of the UPLB sign. Climb the carabao monuments? Ty to climb the Carilion tower? naah.. not much for the kids.. but of course running wild and free is a good idea. Or maybe revisit apartments we lived and show them that all along we have been propagating, that is why we are missing that much.. LOL Enchanted Kingdom. Nice place, and heard can be fun too for the kids.. BUT! I don’t think three kids in tow is manageable..and not to mention pricey. La Mesa Ecopark. There’s a lot things to do here, but we have been there twice already.. some other time maybe. CamSur. Why not baby.. but 8 hours on the road.. hmm.. let me think again. Baguio. Yes all the way..LOL.. and the kids are conspiring so we can go to Baguio.. Kayil is telling me that every time I will ask him a question, his answer will be Baguio..let’s try: pehpot: are you hungry? Kayil: yes, I want to eat in Baguio.. pehpot: are you sleepy? Kayil: yes I want to sleep in Baguio.. on and on.. Daddy PLEASE..PLEASE.. bring our kids to Baguio.. they are painting my whole body with their saliva and tickling me to death…

I am STILL Following YOU
Some weird things are happening on the blogosphere.. To all my blogger friends: NO I DID NOT STOP FOLLOWING YOU.. and please don’t think otherwise.. I would never want to lose blogger friends here… I have been out the past few days.. I also lot two followers.. or maybe just a glitch.. I miss you all guys.. note: i my not be updating my blog with new post, I am busy reviving and editing my old post.. somebody told me, it can increase your adsense earnings.. and when I am done with it, i will be more than glad to share with you some good and proven techniques on how to increase your adsense clicks.. but don’t think I will be missing your posts. I will read still.. can’t live without the daily (as much as possible) dose of my blogroll..
Helpers: Do they really help?
I was about to post something about Sound of Music (I just finished watching it) but some tabs are opened and it is distracting my flow of thoughts (if I have one).. Closing them would be easier, only if I did not have to check each one why it is opened. Checking every tab, I landed on Maria and read on with some of her entries (out of focus attack). Her entry, about being a stay at home mom, reminds me of my house helps experiences.. and something about their responsibilities and all. Being a stay at home is a mixed, a roller coaster ride, experience.. there’s fun, there’s broken wares. There are tears, screams, spilled coffee, cakes, burps, farts. You experience everything toddlers has to offer, and not to mention chores. Then the biggest part of it, is the kid’s safety.. as a mom, you would not want anything to happen to your baby.. I am thinking how hard or big the responsibility of the nannies or helpers are. I mean, kids are left with them and they need to do their chores and still need to take care of the kids.. makes me think that their job is the next best thing to being a mom.. hard work less pay. A little money for lots of love.. this is making me furious.. it is just so feudal! that house workers are paid less.. why? it is because a house work is a woman’s work, a wife’s work.. oh crap with the equality thing.. we can never be equal as long as house helpers are paid less..
breathes.. sips coffee..
For my helpers experience.. oh well I only have two.. and both were not a good experience. The first one, lasted only for 4 months, the second, one month and half.. well, they could not tolerate me. How hard it can be? The were pissed off when I clean, once again, the bathroom that they spend the whole afternoon cleaning. They never liked it when I fold, again, the clothes that they even use tape measures to fold. What can I do? It’s not my fault. It’s the chemicals that working, blame it on my low serotonin level. They did not like it when I am around the house.. They are more comfortable working in an employer free home. I am a STAY at home mommy, what can I do.. Now that we have 3 kids, my hubby insist that we get another helper, to which I say no.. but chores and the kids keeps me away from blogging.. so maybe we’ll hire one again. I will just be busy (and tell the helper I am a WAHM.. they think of you less when you say you’re a stay at home) blogging and leave the chores and the kids to her. TEMPTING.
