I cook, save where I can, and try to live life to the fullest. Along the way, I hope to share some information that I hope others find helpful or at least, entertaining.
It is 2012. It is mid 2012. We are half way through 2012 and according to certain religious groups, the end of the world may just be around the corner.
What have I done with my life so far? More precisely, what have I done with my life since 2009 since I started this blog?
Well, [...]
My husband came home the other day with a new baby walker for our little girl. Before I had a chance to yell at him for buying at retail price, he announced he got it for $15 versus the over $50 retail price tag. Good husband. Good husband.
I took a quick glance around our house [...]
Three months ago, I dropped off my son for his first day of pre-school. He clutched onto me as tightly as possible when he thought he was being abandoned. He screamed, wailed, and tried to escape. When I went to pick him up, tears stained his little cheeks – evident that he spent the whole [...]
My 3-year-old son must have somehow knew I was threatening to sell him on Craigslist if he doesn’t behave. Almost immediately after the last post, he started to eat properly, sit properly and my God, listen when I tell him to do something. Here’s a conversation we had just the other night.

Sometimes I feel like I fail as a mom.
I used to think that once I become a mom, I would be the best mom ever. I would have the most obedient children in the world. They would listen to my every command and do my every request. Parents all over the world would look at [...]
I see the light at the end of the tunnel! I’m 33 weeks pregnant today! Rest assured that this be the last time I’m going through this tunnel. Unlike my first pregnancy, this pregnancy has many complications.
On Friday morning I came into the hospital for a routine checkup on my gestational diabetes. Turned out [...]
After my son was born, I told myself I will never, ever, ever get pregnant again. I was absolutely miserable. I didn’t even have the morning sickness. However, I was miserable just being so big. I am a very tiny and thin person, so gaining 30+ lbs was a great deal of stress on [...]
I hate crowds; can’t stand them. I want to go in a store, get my errands done quickly and leave without any interruptions. Anything that deters me from that puts me in a really bad mood. Case in point when I was very close to slashing someone tires for trying to steal my parking space. [...]
I hate shopping for clothes. I seriously do. I hate walking around. I hate browsing. I hate trying on clothes. And mostly, I hate dealing with crowds. My hate for shopping most likely stemmed from the fact that nothing ever fits me. I would spend countless hours browsing through racks and racks of clothes just [...]
I have been coughing for like…forever. My days are violently interrupted by loud, uncontrollable coughing that leaves my stomach in pain and my throat sore. Coworkers, families, animals, and micro-organisms scramble for cover as I cough my insides out. Instead of going to the doctor, I decided to patiently wait it out. Weeks passed. Months [...]
