Busy Week!

Ugh! I can't wait for the start of Holy Week. We've been so busy the past few days I need a breather. Sometimes I watch our cats and can't help be jealous since all they do all day is sleep, eat, lakwatsa, repeat. They are all so calm, they only get stressed when there are other people visiting or when the intruder comes to raid their food bowls. 

I've also been making sure to spend time in the garden. Aside from watering the plants, I've been trying to re-pot at least one plant everyday. I've made a list of plants to re-pot and that helps keep me from being overwhelmed. Usually Meredith or Grogu accompanies me. They usually sit near me and watch me like they're my supervisor, haha. 

I thought we'd be free tomorrow, but I just remembered we still have a meeting. Zzzzz.

Home in Mondays: Must-have First Aid Kit

I had a sad birthday. My boys did all they can to cheer me up yesterday. Surprise after surprise came. I was ecstatic about it, but deep down I just felt broken. 

The past few months have really been challenging health-wise. I have been able to do less and less activities and that really frustrates me a lot. I started to be able to do more activities again after we got back from Bohol, but COVID-19 hit our family. I probably had it too, but with less viral load. I fought it so I could take care of my boys. Then air quality went bad and things have been downhill.

The struggle is real and yesterday I finally gave in and cried. I felt so helpless and hopeless. Aside from feeling unwell the help I'm supposed to be getting hasn't come. I've also been feeling down because I haven't been able to see my Mom. 

Sweetie though reminded me that I should not worry too much. He reminded me how strong I am and told me how proud he was I was able to help edit a book for Mama Mary despite everything. That made me calm down because it reminded me what I should hold on to whenever I face challenges, my faith. 

The first aid kit for anything is your faith. You can add a prayer book or stampitas, a rosary, Holy Water and a medallion too. What's most important is your relationship with Papa God. 

Build your spiritual first aid kit because you need to have it anywhere you go.
