"My Lifes Journey In Focus"

My Dahlia
My first ever to plant Dahlia's and I didn't know that if it's already in fall I have to dig the root or tuber for me to plant next year. Though there are two options, to leave it in winter but covered it with a thick mulch or to dig it up and store in cool dry place. I decided I'd rather leave it in the ground and covered it with a lot of dried leaves, then covered it again with plastic then covered it with dry leaves. That is my own experiment if next year it will grow back it's a success ^_^. If it's not then I am going to buy more Dahlia's because this flowers are just pretty. My yellow Dahlia is huge like giant size while the red dahlia which is at the right side is short and the flower is small. ^_^

I am thankful and my siblings could attest to this, that my parents teach us not to look down upon a persons shortcomings, weaknesses and downfall. Rather, be a friend in the true sense of the word and treat everybody nicely because my parents believe of this phrase "what you sow is what you reap".  Growing up I have friends who are are gays and lesbians and frankly speaking they are very nice to hang out. They are such wonderful persons and I enjoyed their company. They are the same as we are, they have feelings and they get hurt. Back in the Philippines my gay friends are doing good and every time I have a chance to chat with them I have a good time and I laugh like there is no tomorrow haha. They are such good people. This morning I just knew that one of my gay friend is coming here for a visit. His sister is working in CA and he is asking me where to visit and where to hang out. Of course, I would love him to enjoy his stay here in the US so I point out to him some good Ho…

My DH granddaughter just delivered a beautiful baby girl last Thursday. She weights 6 lbs and some inches. She had complete five fingers and five toes. Two eyes and two ears ^_^. Jokingly aside that is what parents do when a baby is  born to checked if something is in the right place ^_^. 
I remember when my sister delivered her second  child. It was hurtful because the baby died. It was the first time we loss a child and my sister and my mom was devastated by it. When my sister delivered her last child, she was a bit premature and seem like weak. So she stayed in the incubator or days and my sister will go to the nursery room to breastfeed her. It's not fun to loss a baby nor see them sick. I was in the nursery room and I see my niece for the first time inside the incubator I felt sick too. I like to burst in tears but somebody should be strong. When I was close to the incubator…

What we did yesterday is to help my DH aunt in arranging and packing her stuff. Her husband which is my DH uncle just passed away last February and since they had a big house she don't like living there anymore. He had three children all grown up but two are out of the states and the other one lives nearby but they don't have a great relationship to each other. While I was packing there helping her put all her canned goods to a plastic container my mind is running 160 miles per hour ^_^. I was thinking living alone is not fun at all specially when you are in your twilight days. In her age she should be playing her grandkids and just make life easy. Uprooting the place that she live in for 50 years is not as good too. She had plenty of memories etched every corner of the house and I could tell she is feeling it but she doesn't have anyone.  I know my Aunt will have a hard time living in a Senior apartment with a little space but who needs big house and all the stuff when her…

In this time and generation  dating has plenty of style now a days. Back when I was growing up in the Philippines we had the usual and laid back style of dating. The man should visit the lady at home. It is a taboo if you would meet the lady in the street or any restaurant. Nowadays it's a different. We already knew that there is such thing as virtual dating and as I look at it there is nothing wrong with it.  I meet my wonderful husband online. We started emailing each other until I asked him if he knew how to chat and if he had a webcam. He didn't know all of those and so I have to teach him how to do it and we are thousand of miles a part he is here in MI and I was in the Philippines. It was a little hard on my part because I had to do the chatting in another website, put my photos in another website, chat to him in another website it's almost like at the end you are at a lost. Th…

Wow where the hour goes today we've been out for the whole day helping my DH Aunt move from her house to  a senior apartment complex. Living in their house for 50 years she couldn't even believe how much they accumulated they've got a lot of stuff. And later in the afternoon, my SIL called my DH to have a dinner at her house because my BIL and his wife is here from Texas. It was good seeing them after so long and my DH had fun talking with his brother and it's kind of nice to see them together once again.  This brother of my DH who is from Texas started talking about baseball games. And him and my DH nephew loves to play any kind of ballgames, I guess because they are younger hehe. Anyway, he told everybody that in buying a baseball ticket we have to go online and check ticketamerica.com . It's where him and his family back in Texas do all the time. They love to go to any baseball stadium just to follow his favorite baseball team or watch concert. My nephew said that…

That yellow flower is so rich and alive! You have done a wonderful job capturing the vibrancy of yellow.
I'm starting to think maybe yellow is my favorite colour. March 19, 2010 11:09 AM

I've been to Niagara Falls many times and often wondered abut stopping in at the Ripley Museum. After seeing your photos I guess its something I will just have to do! June 11, 2010 5:53 AM
These are the words that Barry leave at my post. I may not know him personally but I do missed him. The last two weeks before he died he didn't leave any comments anymore I wonder if he was already too ill, I wonder if he suffered a lot, it makes me sad.  By his words, I could te…
