Yesterday was pretty hectic I didn’t even get to check my email. Maybe it was also because I overslept. Kaya my time for coffee and email was forfeited. I hate staying up late. Because my next day is affected.
Got a piece of jewelry for Mark. I’m so glad he liked it. I had to get it for him when I saw it. It was the most beautiful piece I’ve ever seen. I’m happy he was willing to wear it. He doesn’t care much for it. But this one was really nice.
Lya visited Ria. Spent the whole afternoon with Elaine in Aunt Czarina’s house. Wanted to stay over but Mark wouldn’t hear of it. Actually it was ok with me that she sleeps over. But Mark will never allow it. And I understand him. My father was a strict man. And sleepovers was a no-no. So I never experienced pyjama parties while growing up. Except once in Nora’s house and then I slept so early, I missed all the fun. Well if I didn’t sleep early they wouldn’t have fun. Until now I am haunted by the picture they took of me sleeping. Some were with my mouth open. Yaiks!!!! So, Lya? Sleepovers aren’t that fun anyway, so go home and sleep here.
Now, the kids are on vacation except for Lara who still had to graduate. Graduate? With one year of kindergarten. Why does one have to graduate in kindergarten. Is it because the quality of students are degrading by the year and mothers are afraid it’s the only graduation they are going to experience? It’s a bunch of crap if you ask me. It’s plain waste of time, effort, and money. Lya and Leon now can sleep up to what time. But I had to wake up Lara because she had to go to "general practice". What is this? A concert? Well…… it can be compared to a concert. They practice endlessly, they have a costume( the toga ) and we were made to pay an amount which was necessary for graduating. Haaaaay!! But I guess it’s ok because Lara looked cute in her toga. So cute that I had to bring her to a studio so a professional photographer can take a pic of her. Will post it here once I get it.
Now, I’m just waiting for Lara to finish eating breakfast. Then I have to go on with my day. Take Lara to "general practice". Go to McCoy’s and do my daily routine, get Lara again. Cook lunch, nag the kids the whole day, do my surprise visit McCoy’s again. Make some sauces perhaps, critisize my kitchen, etc etc just to keep my staff on their toes. But don’t get me wrong. I love my staff. They’re wonderful. Been with me for a long time. Some are on their fifth year. And they’re like family to me. But I have to do my job so they will do theirs right?
Oooops, I have to end now. Lara is now brushing her teeth and it’s almost time for us to go. Today is another day, I am praying it goes well for me and all my family. Have to visit my mother, she’s complaining ever since I married she’s lost a daughter daw. Maybe this afternoon after all my chores.
