(For those of you who don’t know what SOOC means, it means straight out of the camera.)

I havent been posting a picture of me for the longest time (I think since I became a SAHM) - so there you go. I gained weight this week (well, I think the past weeks, LOL) — too much sugar, too much salt, barely any water (could be the PMS talking too - the search for the best diet pill from diet pills review can now be stopped!). My hair can be tied now - so I need to get a haircut (I just want to get it done in Manila kasi), too many zits on my chin and the other side of my hair has too many white strands already. I desperately seek some pamper-me-time, but I know it will take a looong time before I can leave my kids alone - ever since I stopped working, I think I need them more than they need me. It is a bit vague but if you are in the same boat, Im sure you would be nodding your head in agreement with what I just wrote.

Hmm…people send me e-mails and ask me what do I these days. I always draw a blank - what do I do really? It seems that everyday just passes by with me mentally reviewing what happened and all I can come up are mundane stuff - blog, work a little, plan a little, once the kids wake up, I lose me time and just steal minutes which really doesnt accomplish anything.

It’s a far cry when I was still working when I can list all the things I have done or accomplished.

But what I accomplish these days are not really the small stuff you can list.
What I accomplish these days are investments on my kids - and whatever I sacrifice, give, teach them - they are all going to reflect someday.

My kids are blooming and making huge progress.
That’s something immeasurable for me.
So screw looking fugly for now. I can always steal time for myself when everything settles down. Soon.
