Our Weekend

I just want to justify why I'm not yet finished updating this blog. hehe! I'm not done yet with the sidebars, header, title, etc. Hopefully I'll find time within the week.

Anyway, last Saturday, we went to Batangas to attend a wake. I'm not really sure if we are related to the family but we are close to them plus, my sister stayed in my aunt's house when she went to Milan that's why we went. Another agenda is I'm hoping that we'll be able to take home lots of fruits (I want avocado, ripe mango, papaya, etc) that's why we went there too. Unfortunately, my uncles said there are no more avocados. If we were there 3 weeks ago, we could have brought home a lot. Sayang! They gave us na lang bananas which are ok na din. Then, we also bought "tablea" (these are blocks of cocoa powder made from cacao beans). There are tablea from the Visayas area pero syempre love my own hehe! I like the taste of the Batangas version. Like when you cook it for hot chocolate or used in "champorado", mas masarap yung ala-eh! hehe! Anyhow, when we got everything we need, we prepared na for our trip back to Manila. Lance had a great time in Batangas, cool air and he can run anywhere. :)

Come Sunday, I woke up at 5:30 to go to the market. Me and the yaya need to leave early to make it to the 7:30am mass in the chapel right across our house. When we arrived home, Lance is awake na and is watching Barney with Paul. We prepared na for the mass then had breakfast after. I tried putting Lance to sleep at 10am for we need to leave at 12pm for his class at the little gym at 12:30. Lance doesn't want to sleep so we just played with him. Thank God naman, he wasn't sleepy when we went to his class. We got home at 2pm then Lance went to sleep. I was just chatting with my siblings and cousin while Lance and Paul were sleeping. When they both woke up at 5pm, we just played with Lance and watched tv. And when I looked at the time, it's already 8pm and time to put Lance again to sleep. :)

That's what happened to us last weekend. Tiring but fun! :)

Shoes Sizes

Jenny tagged me and asked about my shoe size.

{Start Copy}

What's your shoe size? Are your feet the same size as your mom's feet? How about your sister's feet? Can you borrow shoes from each other?

Post a picture of your latest shoe buy.

Tag the number of women of your shoe size, i.e. size 5 = tag 5 friends. Don't forget to drop a line in this blog when you're done. :)

My mom's shoe size: 7
My size: 6 1/2 sometimes 7
My sister's shoe size: 5 to 5 1/2


my latest shoes from crocs :)

Actually it's been a few months since I bought this one but this is the latest, hehe!

My mom and I can use each others shoes if we want to since our sizes are almost the same. And because of that, it's easier to ask my mom to buy shoes for me since she knows my size. With regards to my sister, we never share shoes together because her shoe size is much smaller than mine. Sayang nga eh coz she has plenty of shoes. hehe!

I'm tagging Mhay, Bang, Maybelle, Kitts and Aggie.

Exhibits

Our company often participates or sends people to attend exhibits. Just like last month, members of the management committee went to Singapore to attend an exhibit and check on these trade show displays to see if its applicable to our products here in the Philippines. They are also on the look out for new products for business development that we can offer here in the country.

Some of them found opportunities for business development which they presented during our rest of year planning last Thursday and Friday. Since the products are new, a lot of people asked questions during their presentation. They were able to answer some questions but there are some that were not answered as well. But our President is quite happy with the new products they presented.

Before the ROY planning finished, our President gave a summary of the targets for the rest of the year for each department heads. Likewise, he asked the support group to give their 100% support so as to meet these targets. He also asked some department heads to participate in exhibits so we can showcase our products especially the new ones we are offering to the market. He asked us to look for truss and banner stands that are sturdy and attractive so that people will visit our booth and hopefully achieve the goals set. The management team is praying to end the year positively so that all of us will have a wonderful Christmas and New Year.

My Wednesday

Today is not a good day for me. It actually started last Monday. I was out of the office for 2 days last week (that’s Thursday and Friday) due to our rest of year planning for the company. Then I was not able to go to work on Monday because I’m having a hard time breathing. I think it’s because I was tired last weekend and also because our baby girl is growing well inside my tummy. I already listed down the things that I need to accomplish for this week but before Monday ends, I received news from my staff.

He texted me and told me he’ll be resigning effective August 1. I wasn’t expecting this because we talked about it before and he told me that if in case he’ll resign, he’ll wait until I come back from my maternity leave. I guess he received a nice job offer that he can’t resist. I was both happy and disappointed when I heard the news. Happy because I know his concerns and I’m glad that with his new job, he can help his family. But I’m also disappointed because I really need him now since in two months time I’ll be on maternity leave and will be back after two months. And by the time I get back, we’ll have our ISO audit again. I just hope our HR people will find someone to replace him the soonest possible time.

And now it’s almost 6pm and I’m not yet done with the things that I need to accomplish today. :(
