Thank you for making me smile =)

I can't believe it's been 3 days since I posted something. I've been preoccupied with my kids' back-to-back concerts, offline writing, kids' TaeKwon-do testing, paperwork, poor eyesight and carpal tunnel (Sshh...honey's getting upset since I haven't made an appointment to get my new prescription)

And to top it off, Internet Explorer and Blogger are making it very, very difficult to post anything!

There are some awards (see photo below) I have to share with everyone. I feel so bad not posting it immediately but between time constraints and Internet Explorer-Blogger problems, I'm really getting frustrated.

The women that shared their awards with me deserve to have these awards bounced back to them because they always make my day. Everyday they stop by and leave me a message - what a way to start my day smiling!













So ladies, thank you so much for sharing the love and making me smile.
1) Tami of A Diary of A Mad Woman shared with me the You Are My Sunshine Award!
2) Veronica Lee of Of Mice and RaMen - shared with me most of the awards I got. She recently shared me the Best Blogging Award, Most Wonderful Favorite, Sushi Grade Award and But I was nice award.
2) Paula of A Party of Six share with me the Sushi Grade award, too.

If you haven't visited their blog, please do - they'll definitely make you laugh, smile and leave their blog inspired.

I'm sharing these awards to all of you who have stopped by and left me a comment or two. It's just shows that you care about what I post.

Please visit everyone that stopped by and grabbed the awards - it's just a few clicks and their posts will put TONS of smiles on your faces.

A few site I'd like to mention that you should definitely visit:

Let me leave you with a few of my favorite quotes from Denis Waitley:
"If you believe you can, you probably can.
If you believe you won't , you most assuredly won't.
Belief is the ignition switch that gets you off the launching pad. "

"Happiness cannot be traveled to, owned, earned, worn or consumed.
Happiness is the spiritual experience of living every minute with love, grace and gratitude."


Have a great weekend everyone!
How to get your award so you can share them with your favorite bloggers?
1) Download the photo of the award and post it in your blog/site.
2) Share if to anyone (as many as you want) . You can either mention them and their blogsites within your post or you can leave a comment in one of their posts.
I planned on posting everyone I shared the awards to but IE kept kicking me out.

Completed my first 16 Week IsaBody Challenge: Believe You Have A Purpose

My family is what matters most to me.  I’m 51 and a mother of 4 (ages 14 – 26). I wanted to be healthier, more active and stronger not just for me, but for the people I love.  I wanted to set an example for my family that we each possess the tools to master our wellness and vitality. I've always been petite except when I was pregnant ( when I gained an average of 50 pounds per pregnancy - 4 times!) Over the years I had tried various diet and exercise regimens, and I did enjoy a degree of success, but the results were not to the level I hoped for, and they were somewhat short lived.   Achieving stable, long-lasting results proved stubbornly elusive.    Then when I hit menopause everything became more difficult.    My body stopped cooperating altogether, and I was constantly grumpy. My waist and hips expanded and I found myself napping in the afternoons.    I started to accept the idea that there would be this new, less vibrant ...

SPICE-up a young child's development: social, physical, intellectual, creative and emotional

Children are the precious gems of a family. When they’re young and innocent, they are like sponges that willingly and quickly absorb any knowledge and emotion. That’s why at an early age, we encourage our children to read, be creative, be happy and feed their curiosity. With all the technology and instant gratification that children get from playing video or computer games, asking a child to read a good book has been a challenge for some parents .     “Your children are not your children.       They are the sons and daughters of Life's longing for itself.       They come through you but not from you,       And though they are with you, and yet they belong not to you.       You may give them your love but not your thoughts,        For they have their own thoughts.        You ma...

Immigration and Family: Will my mom ever get to see my daughter walk down the aisle

Last year when my father passed away in the Philippines, I went home and took some time to visit the U.S. Embassy in Manila to ask what the options are for my mother to return to the U.S. The consul reminded me of the 10-year travel ban. That on or after November 8, 2015 — not earlier – or 10 years after my mom, was deported in 2005 for overstaying her visa, I can email the U.S. Embassy and inquire about my mother’s approved petition. I asked if I need to file another petition, and she informed me I didn’t have to. I asked if I could… and she stopped me and said to ask everything on or after November 8, 2015. This is where I am, and where my thoughts are drifting as I celebrate this month my 16th American birthday. I am counting the months, the weeks and the days. My daughter is getting married in January 2016 and I would love to have my entire family, especially my mother, to be here when that momentous occasion happens.

Helping others surpass their goals and expectations

"It's not about the end goal. It's who you become by consistently pushing to the edge of your limits." - Robin Sharma Do you ever wonder why you stumble on new things?  Do you ever wonder why unsuspecting strangers cross your path? Do you ever wonder why your mind takes you to a direction you didn't think exist? I was walking to StarBucks to meet my husband when I noticed a sign...

Still shaky, skidded in snow, but so blessed my guardian angels are looking after me!

"Never again wonder, what to be thankful for..."   - Rick Warren, The Purpose Driven Life It’s yet another snowy day in New Jersey. Beautiful, yes but dangerous! In line with my goal for this month is to get back on schedule. I got up around 4am to get my 15yo ready for his Model United Nations conference. (Thankful that our neighbor offered to drive him to school by 5:30am ) I got my 9yo ready for school and I'm thankful that my other neighbor offered to drive him to school. I then drove my husband to the train station to Manhattan. I decided to stop by the Community Center and decided to run a fast 5K on the treadmill. I was 1 mile short because I was so sweaty and hot. (Note to self: dress lightly next time) While cooling down inside the car, I read Day 14’s chapter of Rick Warren's the “Purpose Driven Life” book. I felt really good because it just reminded me that there is always something to be thankful for no matter how awful yo...
