GOOD MORNING PHILIPPINES! HELLO BLOGGING WORLD!
How are you guys! I know that most of my co-bloggers/readers here are doing great as two of them are my facebook friends already, Edel & Mylene,, yey! Well, It's been a while since I last wrote here, so medyo nakakapanibago din. I took a chance also to rearrange the layout my site just a little but to my dismay some gadgets contents were lost :(. But it's okay, I'm here again regaining this hobby of mine back into this platform again. So here's a little glimpse of my life today.
*MY HEALTH - I am so much grateful that inspite of the depression and hardships I have gone through these past few years after my chemo, my tumor marker is always within the normal range except for some small nodules on my breasts, polyps and stones in my gall bladder. I always make sure that a regular check ups and monitoring on its size is done every 6 months, " bawal mapraning kakaisip at bawal pumalya sa ultrasound and Ct Scan" but other than that - I'm good. Thank God for my second chance in life.
*MY FINANCIAL STATUS - " Unemployed up to this date (did not pursue the job I applied last year) "nasanay na kong hawak ang sariling oras.", But even if my income from my sari sari store and house rental is way below the minimum wage I had before, I feel so blessed pa rin." Sometimes when you have so little, you'll have a lot more to be thankful with.
*MY SAVINGS and INVESTMENTS - I pulled out all my shares in FAMI and SOLDIVO, used some of it and invested the rest in PagIBIG fund. Yes po, I continued my Pag ibig Mp1 voluntary contribution and P2 savings. I've also withdrawn some in PHILEQUITY and minimum shares were left. I've nothing against mutual funds and stocks but time is very essential in long term investing. Given my situation, it's not wise for me to invest long term anymore. The probability of being alive for 20 years or more is very unsure,"how morbid no?", but that's the reality of life.
*MY SPENDING HABITS - that's the amazing part, a lot of it changes after Big C battle and when covid pandemic hits us, "mas wais at kuripot na po ako ngayon talaga" in spending on my needs than my wants. My wants became my simple joys as I have prayed to God to bring back the little joys I had back in my childhood days and glad it was granted. (I'll be writing a post about it).
So here I am now, I'm well and able. Sharing my life's story and updates again. All thanks to the mercy and grace of GOD.
Hi, Grace. Happy with your life updates. Everything's well. Lagi ko kaya inaabangan yang Sunday after mass service pics nyo ni mother mo sa FB. Nagu-good vibes kasi ako. Simple life is happy life talaga. Hope more people will be able to realize that. I'm reading this e-book "Your Money or Your Life" by Vicki Robin and ang dami ko na naman learnings and realizations. Keep blogging, kasi ako medyo dami na naman backlogs, busy-busyhan na naman. See you around! God bless! :)
ReplyDeleteHi Ms. Edel. Yeheey, thanks for spending some time sa blog ko, alam ko busy ka. Congrats Sis - kita ko ung pag award sa yo ni Pres. Duterte sa fb.
