Back From Quiescence

Thursday, September 22nd, 2005

Finally, I’m back!  After what?  Almost 3 weeks of silence!  The past few weeks were really the most hectic weeks of my life!  I don’t know why but clients were pouring in, launching a new product soon, preparing numerous reports, helping in creating a new business plan and so on and so forth. But I’m glad that I’m still A-ok albeit the stress and the deadlines(?)   

Well, aside from those adrenaline-rushing, heart-pounding activities, I still managed to go back to my aero class!  Actually, just kicked my butt off awhile ago and it really feels good to sweat it all out!  After that illness that struck my bro, I’m determined to get fit and be healthy.  As for Alex, he’s slowly (but surely) decreasing the number of cigarettes he’s puffing daily.

About my kiddo, he’s growing smarter and cuter everyday.  And he’s becoming and looking more and more like his dad!  He now walks, his vocabulary is increasing (as well as his appetite), and he’s fascinated with hot wheels and TV commercials!  That even if you go crazy in front of him or yell at him, his eyes stays glued on the TV set! Duh?!

Anyway, I guess this is all for now.  Imagine, it’s already 8:45pm and I’m still here in the office.  I’m just waiting for my hubby.  In a little while I’ll be out of here!  Can’t wait to go home and be with my son.

Chow! = )
