I’ll be starting my new job tomorrow and most people I know asks me, “Are you excited?”. My honest answer is no. I’m more nervous than excited. Why? As I’ve said here, I haven’t worked (as an IT professional) for almost 4 years and this is my second chance and have to prove my worth. Secondly, I’m commuting from work and I’m not familiar with this place yet. I know I can bring my own car but, katamad e. Third, new job means new people. Last but not the least, Vera. I don’t know what to expect. Can I handle being away from her the whole day for 5 days in a week after being with her every single day for 16 months? buhuhuhu. I really hope I can adjust well. Para sa yo to anak!

And for all the readers of this blog, special mention to the working moms out there, para sa inyo ito!

P.S.
My tummy seems to be so excited… bad trip!

We use curtains in the 80’s. Then in the 90’s we changed it to roller shades specifically in the bedrooms. Then before Vera was born, we changed ours back to curtains and I plan to change the blinds on Vera’s room to curtains again, just like what we have in our room. It looks more refreshing for me. And I think it’s good to choose blinds if you intend to use the air condition more often which we are not.

I have been planning on losing weight since I got back from the states and up until now, nothing has changed! *LOL* I am a lifetime member of one of the oldest gym here in the Philippines and I have never lasted more than two consecutive months exercising. My main purpose then was to tone my abs (ala Janet Jackson-abs). I think it is the hardest part to tone.

Anyway, hamey and I were actually suppose to go to the gym this morning. He needs to lose weight (badly). He’s also a lifetime member but just like me, he doesn’t go regularly. I remember 3 years ago that he even drinks this chocolate protein supplement after going to the gym. He can probably have this (legal) prohormones to help him convert those fats to muscles much faster. I hope he wouldn’t look ala Arnold Schwarzenegger after awhile. *grins*

We are planning to renovate our bathroom for the nth time (4th to be exact). We no longer use the tub so it just makes sense if we remove it. I like what my mom did with her bathroom. I think she bought the complete DIY Shower here at the depot outside our village. Perhaps I can also change all our faucets to a Hansgrohe faucet, cheapest shower faucet goes around $320 (about PHP12,800). *grins*
