An almost perfect weekend

Beautiful sunrise

My November was off to an awesome start and I just know this is going to be a great month. Last Sunday morning, I went to the Victory Christian Fellowship Service in UP. I have to admit, it felt tempting to stay in bed since weekends are the only days I get to sleep in. [...]

Moving to a new home

After staying in our small one-bedroom apartment for more than a year, we have finally decided to move to a bigger house before Kalia’s arrival.

We will start transferring some of our stuff and furniture tomorrow, though we’ll have to wait until the electricity and water service is up before we completely move in. The lessor says it could be late next week.

The house was a real good find for us because it met all our criteria: the rent is reasonable, it has two spacious bedrooms, our own free parking space, within a safe compound and, best of all, it’s just 10 minutes away from our workplace. Plus, it’s right beside a hospital, in front of a drug store, and two blocks away from the market.

The structure is actually old that’s why I didn’t like it when I first saw the exterior of the apartment. But when we checked out the interiors, everything was newly-renovated and we were told that we would be the first tenants to occupy it.

I’ve asked Mama’s help to spruce up the place so it’ll have that warm cozy feeling. I’m actually excited to decorate it because this is going to be our “first” home. You see the apartment we live in now is actually Kernan’s bachelor pad so it was already set up even before we were married and I just brought my clothes when I moved in.

The new house is a clean slate and hubby says I can decorate it any way I want. Yay! :D

Kernan and I plan to stay there for a couple of years while we save money to build our real dream house.

I already told him I had a vision of what our dream house will look like.

I have a confession to make: When my hubby is not sleeping beside me on the bed, I cannot go to sleep. So when he has to stay late at work or during boys’ night out, I pop my favorite movies in the DVD player and go on a replay movie marathon until he arrives. [...]
