today was a very tiring and trying day which made me realize that there are some things that i should have full control of but instead i didn’t. For all these things I regret not doing I am still grateful that…
*I was able to find something that I was looking for after walking to and fro and looking harder the second time around
*we (hubby and i) can still find humor with situations that test our patience and understanding (not to mention our sanity. har har har!!!)
*amidst all the things that look generic and bland there is something that will catch our attention and will stand out to be noticed
Let us be those persons who stand out among the crowd to make a difference in the dull humdrum of our daily grind.

by “normal” self-imposed standards, this day is a day I’d consider a crappy one but as I have promised myself, I will try to find things for which I am grateful for like…
*walking during a drizzle which gave me a headache but made me sweat a lot which made me realize how really i am unfit and that i need to do something about this (it’s like… complicated lol)
*the chance to bond with the kids by playing a few rounds of a card game called_________ worth Php10/deck
*hot tinola dinner (cooked by the resident short order cook = me) which made me smile inwardly as they slurped their way through a few more servings
there is more but this is it for tonight as I take time to slow down for Gratitude Journal 2/366

My Scouts went a-camping last week.
It was the son’s third time to go camping while it was the little girl’s first time to sleep in a tent outdoors.They each had their own sleeping bag, blanket, pillow, not-so-thick jacket and socks to ward off the cold. It wasn’t that cold according to them. Good thing they didn’t bring north face jackets.
Having recovered from two days of low-grade fever, it surely was a welcome relief for the girl to spend time outdoors except we were worried sick ourselves she might have a relapse and thank goodness she didn’t.
I’m guessing we will be having more of these in the years to come.

I love taking photos of lights and as a sample, here is my post with photos about lights for a 2007 Photo Hunter light theme. Below are two Christmas-y lights from last year’s Christmas season:
Christmas lights garland window dressing in my MIL home.
Lights for the Nutcracker Ballet Christmas show held at TriNoma last 2010.
Artificial lights are wonderful but nothing beats natural light, especially coming from the display of colors of a lovely sunset:
Happy weekend!
