No worries Ate Kujo- M. I do it whenever. I don't even know if you're there or not, except with Ate Bebz, I know she isn't around. Hope when she comes back or you come back you'll still see each other here or for real.

Yeh exactly. Well she has been trying to get a job for quite a while and the hubby was going to be the house husband, but it didn't last long. He even bought my friend a washing machine and tumble dryer, but Bessie thought he bought it rather for himself.

Sometimes being a mom was a disadvantage to her and other things because they assume mothers can't commit and be flexible to work with 2 kids to look after.

She got her early proper Xmas present . I'm gonna joke that she's like a "soccer mom" now driving around with her new jeep. She was driving the jeep with the kids to the in laws, but they weren't around, so she popped instead to my bf's house this morning while I was running errands and went to work.

She wasn't always a mothering type and wasn't really bothered with children, but she can't imagine having no kids now. She isn't ambitious, she's just happy to be married, able to work and have the kids grow up and leave as soon as they can.

You've time to be a mom and all that yet sis. You aren't that old and you've that close friend potential more than friends to make your dream come true, yes??

Joining a group was only to be an experiment at the start just like blogging and magazine. I wasn't really fuss with the mag section. Being in a group is good if you don't blog, but I find the thread posts goes too fast. At least with blogging no need to commit. I can come and go whenever that's why by the time TaJane's group was formed, I prefer blogging and more content to stay in my corner. I'm done with joining groups, but won't say never. The invitations to groups were random. I didn't even know the members.

hhahaha you're definitely not bland. lol Out of all people. Maybe you're joining a dead group that is barely active. Which group did you try to join?

You could've joined TaJane's group when it was active. I'm sure you might suit joining GV, which could be the more active group at the moment. The group is good at meeting up regularly and doing charitable causes and discussing Filipino issues.

Anyhow as long as you're happy in your group of friends. That's more important.

'te I tried to make sense of what has past and to let you know whenever I delete your comments, not all of them are wasted. Wish I could delete all of my own comments in other blogs, but the owner of bloggers would've to do that for me.

Ate Tess you're in my second batch of guests G2. Out of those mentioned, kuya Lickquid, Merian143, True_Blue22 and fantasiamore are still blogging. The rest are sparingly commenting or appearing like icu4u2 and anonymousjed and possibly pink_thighs.

I've never heard of a blog either Dan. Hence, my misconception of blogging anything under the sun and not care and be the fool for the moment and care about it later.

My mom did something similar to my first pc, which I bought with the first and last biggest pay packet. She covered my desktop and beyond with multiple versions of folders. No idea how she did it.

Happy weekend to you too. Hope you've a nice happy thanksgiving. The same for Ate Tess and Elz.

Yeh it's fun seeing all the personalities and the clashing of personalities also adds to the drama. Although at times, it get a bit too much and gave me a headache reading the constant arguments whenever there was one.

F.... I'm guessing fga?? I've heard he was fancied by some ladies here.

Mad is a sweet guy. Always has his own comforting words and at times rhyming words to share.

Dimas..... did he have any other handles?

I've heard a particular blogger. Unsure if it's a guy, but s/he sometimes made up rumours about me and a friend or reading into my blog too much and turned into some comical idea.

Do you miss your Daddy blogging?

Honestly I didn't know what I was getting myself into TaJane. It was my first time on the internet to join any kind of socialising site.

Didn't know such things happened online and certain persons are capable of many personas and fool many. After a while it became suspicious. With some explanation from other members, it became a little clearer what was going on. But to this day, I'm not fully sure who's who and why do it and what they were doing everyday to accomplish such things. It was very confusing. From time to time, I was being manipulated to think the worst of my fellow members, was sent filthy messages and insults were being directed at me, which I ignored and replied to say along the lines that I'm not interested in his or her game.

I'm relieved you know of the saga and confirm that it was true.

I gave my private chat mail once and had to block it because the chatter was asking too much questions for a stranger I just started chatting with.

I don't think I've come across apocalypto. At least I can't remember.

I try to be sane. Dunno if it comes across well.

Och don't mind Scot, British guys are like that on the internet quite often. I can imagine him singing something like "I know something that will get on your nerves". He knows what would tick people off and he handled it without tact like a troll.

FlyingScot would be better off eating food at home by a Pinoy chef rather than street food. I barely eat street food myself. I wouldn't trust it for hygiene reason and we can make improvements as far as taste is concerned.

If foreigners meant to be offensive, they could say a lot worse. Sometimes we Filipinos can be too sensitive I'm afraid.

Yes you did without question, except what you needed to know direction wise. It was so surreal to see you sitting there waiting on the driver seat.

Over here, childcare can be quite expensive as childcare workers have to be qualified to do the job most of the time. The qualification to take care of kids is increased to level 2. If a child minder isn't qualified then s/he will get paid much less and is subject to abuse.

I've offered my time at night if they need babysitting like before. Sometimes when they're away for the night or on holiday, I stay with the kids at their house with my bf or bring my godson at my house for a couple days and up to a week. If you're here, you'd make a good babysitter.

Currently, she can get cheaper childcare in the afternoon, my godson can go to an after school playgroup. It's cheaper than an individual childminder to pay per hour. Then the older son can go to the great aunt after school. Everyone else lives further away and they either don't want them to stay at the dad's parents or the bessie's parents don't always want their grandkids when they already have other grandchildren to look after. Hence, she knows bf or I are available nearby if the in laws aren't.

She's coping not too bad so far, but she's very exhausted since this is the first job since she had to stop 5 years ago and had trouble getting back into work. Then her back was bad from an accident caused by someone else, which would be a long story to explain. Having the second child made it worst, so working many hours standing around a lot makes her back very sore. But as you said, she's tough and strong because she knows she has to get on with it no matter what. At least her jeep with her own insurance and income along with other blessings on top of that gives her the extra incentive to keep going.

When you find the guy for you, hopefully everything else will follow after that with God's will.

I've a website with my nerdie friends, but it's more of a niche group between us and hardly any of us post on it. I'm a member of a gamer site, but I'm more of a visitor, reader and I don't make much comments there as they're way too elitist at times and the minute they know I'm a female, they'll be constantly trying to get attention as most of them are guys. I try not to be obvious. I use it mainly to send private message to my school mates and bf.

hahahaha really you did that sending applications? I didn't know the group were picky. I thought they welcome anyone. How strange. They should be very lucky to have you. It doesn't make sense. You aren't wacko or far from being bland. You'd make them lively.

hahaaha it isn't that bad. You've got great people around you and your pets. You do indeed get involved in your own charity causes, no need to tell you to do it. You just go and do it.

You shouldn't underestimate yourself or feel intimidated, in case you cramp their style or step on their toes. You'd be surprise how people respond rather than react and if they do react with nastiness, that's their problem, not yours. You seemed afraid before as well with Ate Bebs and a few remain afraid to approach, but look how you are with her these days. So friendly with each other. Such a turn of circumstances.

I lived in my own corner most of the time. I wasn't particularly tight with anyone, except those who are very approachable and reciprocates with love and kindness.
