No one asked but one of my favorite things in the world is pockets. Then the skinny jeans took it all away.  I remember Jan having pockets in his pants that can fit a phone, a wallet, a large bag of Cheetos, a laptop, our fat cat, and possibly the entire city of Atlantis while I, on the o…

And guess what? I did not leave with a basket full of bright, colorful, and aesthetically pleasing stuff that are absolutely unnecessary.  I could have done it, you know. The husband was a thousand miles away and no one else can dissuade me from buying whatever useless knickknack I fanc…

I have been here for about an hour now.  While I try to make out what is being broadcasted over the speakers because I can only hear muffled and distorted sounds as if the announcer is gargling the microphone, I have been watching people.  And so it occurred to me that airports are a home…

I don't really get my fingernails done.  My hands look too manly that no amount of hand spa and nail color can make it ladylike. My day to day activities are also not very friendly for long, prettyfied, manicured nails (I wash my children's bum, no thanks). So yeah, a trip to the …

There is a reason why I haven't been posting dancing content on TikTok lately, why my face is getting "rounder" each day, and why we have to hold off or probably let go of our plans to immigrate to Canada (cold weather is a huge trigger). It's crazy how life can change …

Got this from Kryz Uy's post . I find it a bit relatable (except the being wealthy part), so I thought I'd do the same. 4 years later... Our marriage so far: bought a small home (applied in 2017 but it was turned over a few months after our wedding) traveled as married couple had…

I have a new pair of shoes! And it's one of the most beautiful shoes I've ever laid my eyes on. I know I don't need another one. Call it absurd , a weakness, a toxic trait, or whatever. But shoes do make me happy. Probably because I may have been healing from my "past tra…
