Ada Verastic Still Won’t Sleep In Her Bed. Technically.

My little human just turned 8 months old a week ago; hard to believe that 8 months have passed already. Although I don't remember where, I've probably mentioned this somewhere already that before we had Ada Verastic, we bought her a nice crib. It was not the most expensive, but it cost about $400. It took us about six hours, I think, to set it up. I had no idea that cribs came with so many parts, and as much as I don't like it, America is determined to turn me into a DIYer. Anyway, when we Read More

I No Longer Wash My Panties In The Morning

It is amazing how much changes with time. One of my favorite things on this blog is reading old blog posts and measuring just how much I have changed, if any. Take for example, this panties issue. It does not seem like it, but it has been four years since I wrote about how I HAD TO wash my panties in the morning. Morning = whenever I take a shower, even if it's at night. As I explained in my post four years ago, I attended boarding school for one semester in St. Louis College, Jos (hello SL Read More

Although Lilian and I were not BFFs, we did know each other well enough. She was always that girl - the one who was obviously open to things beyond her. Young and naive (and listening too much to my boy cousin who in Read More

Journal #17: May 2016

Welcome to June. June makes it official that we are in the middle of the year. Also that we are in the summer. I don't like the summer, but summer usually comes with events and fun activities, which is why I went for two weddings in May. Anyway, my May was an easygoing month. Let's recount. Ada Verastic's Birthday: Planning is in half-full swing. I have booked a couple of vendors, but I still don't have a venue. And I still don't know what the theme of the party will be. Also, I don't know Read More
