One Flaw in Women

By | Today's Quote | No Comments

Sharing the One Flaw In Women ………. 

By the time the Lord made woman,  He was into his sixth day of working overtime. 

An angel appeared and said, 

“Why are you spending so much time on this one?” 

And the Lord answered, “Have you seen my spec sheet on her? 

She has to be completely washable, but not plastic, 

have over 200 movable parts, all replaceable 

and able to run on diet coke and leftovers, 

have a lap that can hold four children at one time, 

have a kiss that can cure anything from a scraped knee to a broken heart

-and she will do everything 

with only two hands.” 


The angel was astounded at the requirements. 

“Only two hands!? No way! 

And that’s just on the standard model? 

That’s too much work for one day. 

Wait until tomorrow to finish.” 


But I won’t,” the Lord protested. 

“I am so close to finishing this creation that is so close to my own heart. 

She already heals herself when she is sick 

AND can work 18 hour days.” 


The angel moved closer and touched the woman. 

“But you have made her so soft, Lord.” 


“She is soft,” the Lord agreed, 

“but I have also made her tough.

You have no idea what she can endure or accomplish.” 


“Will she be able to think?”, asked the angel. 


The Lord replied, 

“Not only will she be able to think, 

she will be able to reason and negotiate.” 


The angel then noticed something, 

and reaching out, touched the woman’s cheek. 

“Oops, it looks like you have a leak in this model. 

I told you that you were trying to put too much into this one.” 


“That’s not a leak,” 

the Lord corrected, 

“that’s a tear!” 

“What’s the tear for?” the angel asked. 


The Lord said, “The tear is her way of expressing her joy, 

her sorrow, her pain, her disappointment, her love, 

her loneliness, her grief and her pride.” 

The angel was impressed. 

“You are a genius, Lord. 

You thought of everything! 

Woman is truly amazing.” 


And she is! 

Women have strengths that amaze men. 

They bear hardships and they carry burdens, 

but they hold happiness, 

love and joy. 

They smile when they want to scream. 

They sing when they want to cry. 

They cry when they are happy

and laugh when they are nervous. 

They fight for what they believe in. 

They stand up to injustice. 

They don’t take “no” for an answer 

when they believe there is a better solution. 

They go without so their family can have. 

They go to the doctor with a frightened friend.

They love unconditionally. 

They cry when their children excel

and cheer when their friends get awards. 

They are happy when they hear about 

a birth or a wedding. 

Their hearts break when a friend dies. 

They grieve at the loss of a family member, 

yet they are strong when they think there is no strength left. 

They know that a hug and a kiss 

can heal a broken heart. 

Women come in all shapes, sizes and colors. 

They’ll drive, fly, walk, run or e-mail you 

to show how much they care about you. 

The heart of a woman is what makes the world keep turning. 

They bring joy, hope and love. 

They have compassion and ideals. 

They give moral support to their family and friends. 

Women have vital things to say and everything to give. 

HOWEVER, IF THERE IS ONE FLAW IN WOMEN, 

IT IS THAT THEY FORGET THEIR WORTH.

Let It Go Let it Go

By | Household Tips | No Comments

This is definitely the song of the year!!  

[wp_youtube]moSFlvxnbgk[/wp_youtube]

I found other uses for this song when my friend, Plet posted this in instagram.  True and funny 🙂  Make sure to play this song while cleaning in the house! 🙂  

We should just LET IT GO and learn to say good bye to things we do not need in our homes.  

let-it-go.jpglet-it-go.png

and maybe even in our lives 🙂

Inspired again by this which my other friend, Arlene, posted

CLEAN AND KEEP THINGS ORGANIZED AND NEAT – Inspiration from my Tita Nena

I also keep a lot of stock of all kinds of these plastic containers in all sizes – for baon, for leftovers, for sharing some food with friends 🙂 , for organising

Another way to Let it go!  WRITE! Express yourself and let all your emotions out!  This is from my Tito Rico.  I told him that I am glad I have my website to just LET IT ALL GO! Maybe not sad things but definitely positive things to share!!!

Oliver and Maude

By | Household Tips, Shopping | 5 Comments

So nice to meet Julia Morales!  It’s a small world since we have many common friends 🙂  She is also into monogramming with her own line called Oliver and Maude. Beautiful and elegant items!  She can also monogram anything under the sun for as long as she can do it 🙂  She told us that the wildest request she has ever had was having a dining table monogrammed 🙂
