Do I Get Enough Sleep?

I must admit that I'm so guilty of not getting enough sleep. I have high tolerance for staying up late, that is why my body is starting to give up on me. I do a lot of things during the day and not any of them is for myself. I mean I do household chores, running errands, mothering, being the accountant and secretary of the household, make and return phone calls, etc, etc. So at night when all the chaos subside, when I should be resting and sleeping already, the time for myself now begins. Doing my own things meaning blogging and recently scrapping. These two interests have been grabbing away those precious zzzzz's from me. I stay up as late as 3am and i'm just amazed at why I could still stand in the morning taking care of Mikey. Whew, need to sleep early more.

Just for fun, I took this test and anyone is welcome to grab it.





You Don't Get Enough Sleep



You definitely don't get enough sleep, and it's turning you into a mental zombie!

You need to get more sleep, starting tonight if possible.

Avoid caffeine, keep a regular bedtime, don't watch TV before bed, and sleep in complete darkness.

What's For This Week?

This will be another week to look forward to, for my son and I. I like to do things with Mikey and I welcome each day with so much gratefulness. I know not a lot of moms are able to share the same moments with their kids for a lot of reasons, so I treasure each time spent with my son.

To start the week, today is Monday and we are going to attend the Mother Goose Monday in Norton Public Library. Mikey will be able to see his playmates again while I will get to chat with my girlfriend moms as well. After our Library stint we will go back home to get some lunch and nap and then later today, we will join the Moms Meetup Group for an open gym playdate at Gymboree. Here more playmates and more moms will definitely attend, so it will be fun.

On Tuesday, we will go to Mikey's regular Gymboree class. He's been attending the Level 5 session and its quite a lot different. The class is more on imagination and pretending, I'm so happy seeing him participate more in his class. On Thursday, he will have his regular session with a teacher from Early Intervention. He's been having sessions with them once a week for 6 months now and I feel like he doesn't need to get anymore classes because he's doing great already. But he is contracted for a year, so 6 more month to go. I always follow up with anything that he learns either in Gymboree or Early Intervention so Mikey progresses really fast.

Wednesday and Friday are open for other pop up playdates and visits to friends and relatives, so we'll just play it by ear.

Mom's Meetup Group


Since I joined the Mom's Meetup Group in my town, I have attended quite a lot of playdates already. It's fun to be able to get out of the house and get my son to socialize with other kids and for me to have some 'adult' conversations with other moms as well. Yesterday we went to Easton Playground for some fun activities with the bubbles. The weather was so gorgeous and Mikey had fun roaming around the playground patiently pushing his Elmo bubble maker on wood chipped ground. He also had fun swinging back and forth in the kids' swing. When it got very hot, we shielded and sat under the shade of a tree and had some snacks. I had fun exchanging household talks with my girlfriends Josie and Ruchi. Then at 12 noon we called it a day. Mikey and I headed to Costco to do some grocery shopping. We came home around 2pm.

Featured Friends

My blog was featured as one of the top 5 picks of the week by Barb and I have to do the same for other 5 friends.

When you feature your friends' blogs, you will help increase (hopefully) their page rank and yours. You can read more on this here and here. So if you want to help friends, keep the ball rolling, make your own 5 featured friends and keep them for 1 week. To return the favor, include the link or name of the person who has featured you.

Example:
1. Butchay is one of my featured friends.
2. So when Butchay will make her featured friends for the week, she has to include my name and she will pick 4 more from her own list of friends.
3. She will inform ALL her featured friends to keep the ball rolling.

If you use Blogger, you can add your featured friends using the new page element 'Link List'.

My Featured Friends Blogs are:
Barb's Definitely Maybe
Clark and Butchay's Blog
Deborah's Kiss Me Quick
Dana & Debbie's Fil-Am Journey
Kookie's BrownEyedKookie

Fill Me In

It seems that this particular blog of mine is only intended for all the tags I received from friends. Here is another one I got from a new online friend, Butchay.

I AM… What I Am! What you see is what you get.

I WANT… to make a difference and give positive influence to everyone.

I HAVE… a loving and supportive husband and family.


I WISH… I could be in one place at the same time so I can be with everyone I love.


I HATE… hypocrites, show-off, all-bark-and-no-bite people; people without regard for other people's time


I FEAR… of height and being in small narrow spaces (I'm claustrophobic)


I SEARCH… inexpensive but high quality merchandise, I'm on a look-out for budget extender all the time.


I WONDER… why some people don't have a little bit of conscience when they inflict harm on others


I REGRET… being very career oriented and not getting married younger. I could have more children.


I LOVE… God, my family, and friends


I ALWAYS… attend First Friday masses.


I AM NOT… very disciplined when it comes to sleeping on time and getting some rest.


I DANCE… every time I hear dance tunes


I SING… children's songs with my son all the time now, lol.


I CRY… easily when I watch sad movies, or think about my loved ones away from me.


I WRITE… anything from the heart


I WON… $2 from scratch ticket, hopefully bigger next time, lol.


I AM CONFUSED… when talking to most fast food teenager staffs here - they talk fast and to themselves


I NEED… to take a break and think more about my health


I SHOULD… get my scrapbooking started


THE LAST THOUGHT YOU GO TO SLEEP WITH IS… thank God for all the graces received for that day; pray for all my loved ones to be kept from all harm and danger; and pray for another wonderful day ahead.

I know I started this again quite late so most probably everyone has done this already. But let me try my luck and pass this on to Lutchi and Loannah,

6 Quirky Things About Myself

I got a tag from my friend Amy to write 6 quirky things about myself. Merriam-Webster Dictionary defines QUIRK as a peculiar trait; idiosyncrasy - a peculiarity of constitution or temperament; an individualizing characteristics or quality; individual hypersensitiveness (as to drugs or food)

The rules:
Link to the person that tagged you. Post the rules on your blog. Share six unimportant things/habits/quirks about your self. Tag 6 random people at the end of your post by linking to their blogs. Let these random people know that they are tagged by leaving comments in their blog. Let your tagger know when your entry is up.

6 Quirky Things about myself
"Every man had his own quirks and twists" (Harriet Beecher Stowe)

Here are my quirks:

1. I can hardly tolerate food with ginger but love green tea with ginger.

2. I am claustrophobic and have fear of height - my husband missed some rides and featured attractions in Disney World because I was too scared to be in them.

3. I would go to a mall with a list of things to buy and come home with different items in the bag, mostly kitchen wares and anything for the house.

4. I love to organize and rearrange furnitures in the house every so often to avoid monotony.

5. It takes a while for me to get things done around the house but if I have company coming or party to be hosted, I can flip the house in a heartbeat.

6. I am very direct and confrontational when the situation calls for it.

Now I am tagging the following to do the same.

Deborah, Loannah, Marilyn, Lutchi, Inday Fe and Lucille
