Been Here & There, Doing This & That

Work, school, managing the household, (well, partly managing it since the husband has his lion's share of running the home), budgeting, meeting with friends, weighing my options on important matters.....these are the things that I was preoccupied with the past weeks. But aren't these also what most people are busy pondering about almost everyday of their lives?

I keep on postponing updating this little space of mine. Didn't I tell myself this is one of my stress relievers? Why on earth am I setting this aside? So for a quick shot at this, let me post some pictures to sort of chronicle what transpired the past weeks.

Ours is the last group to report for our MANACC class. I was thankful the business review at the office was rescheduled for this week. I cannot miss this very important activity. We prepared for it like we are gearing up for some battle that we have to win at all cost. We have to meet several times after work so we can polish our report. I am so grateful to have my groupmates since all of them are very cooperative, very enthusiastic and everybody contributes his fair share. And our Mommy Anj is ever so caring and ever so motherly. Needless to say, school and the learnings I get from the different sharings in our class recharge me. MM MBA program is like an end in itself for me. Anyway, the report was good though we ended the class at half past nine pm already. The picture on the left was supposed to be part of our closing credits in the video presentation.

Had lunch with my good friends at the office a few weeks back at one of our favorite restos in the area where I used to work. Thanks to our "Mother" for the treat! You're the best! Anyway, it's at Santis Deli, located at the ground floor of Astoria Plaza, Ortigas. I love not only their cold cuts but their healthy snacks. There's one there which I always buy but have not memorized the name. It's like KitKat chocolate, only creamier. But what we go back for at Santis is their Angus beef. 100 grams is enough for one person. Though for guys, they usually order 120 or 150 grams. Ubos pa rin nila. :)

Yummy Angus beef!



This will be a very busy week starting tomorrow. What week is not, tell me? :) I do want to post and update here the rest of the "happenings" the past weeks. I hope I can do that within the week. I'm quite ganado to blog and blog and blog hop.

Time to hit the bed! :)

@Work and @ Play





***Second avatar edited coz my daughter tinkered with it. Result, my avatar was gone and was replaced by her own.*** See her blog here. :)

I have been tinkering with these avatars with my daughter a few minutes ago. Multi-tasking actually. Cooking, checking the washing machine and doing these avatars in between.

It was fun doing them. My daughter had a grand time creating avatars of everyone in the family including her friends.

Anyway, these are what I've come up with. My avatars at work and when I'm just going around malls. Although a few extra pounds will make this more realistic. Not my fault, the sample body form is generic. :)
