Tipid Mode

Weekends are a great opportunity to slow down. To do simple things that make you and your loved ones happy. To just sit back and relax. To unwind and take everything lightly. To rest while we still can. Because before we know it, work is staring us in the eye again.

Weekends are also a time when we get to spend more money than usual. Like when going to the mall to dine out, watch a movie or simply to shop. This long weekend is no different for my husband and me. We’re staying home and do not have any agenda to go out of town. We’re on tipid mode, after all. (In English, tipid means to observe prudence in spending or to tighten one’s belt.)

My Funny Husband

I think I have the funniest husband in the world. His sense of humor is the best. Or at least, it is, in my mind and ears. He loves to throw jokes at me. He enjoys making jokes out of ordinary things. Sometimes I wonder if he’s starting to lose his sanity. He’s crazily funny, if you know what I mean.

Having a husband like mine is like having a clown in the house. It always feels like there’s a children’s party happening right in front of me. I admit I get annoyed at him sometimes, but almost always I end up missing his funny antics when he finally stops after my reprimand. It’s just so sad that our angel in heaven wasn’t able to experience his dad’s coolness and endearingly funny personality. (We miss you, baby.)

Routinary, But Never Boring

The past weekend has been quiet for us. We were stuck at home doing the usual stuff. Yes, we got to visit the mall but only to pay bills and get fresh supplies.

While the hubby was busy doing the laundry and cleaning the house, I labored myself in the kitchen (cooking diva ang peg!). The hubby and I, we love to share household chores. It really doesn’t have to be always equal, though, as you can see he does most of the work. Haha.

Quiet Weekend

It’s not every time that we get to experience a quiet weekend. You know, a weekend where there’s very little or zero happenings. Last weekend was a perfect example of a quiet weekend for us. The hubby and I just stayed home doing household chores together and taking our much-needed rest after. That kind of stuff.

Except for our quick trip to SM Bacoor to replenish our pantry supplies, we just spent a quiet weekend at home. It was scorching hot outside so we just watched a lot of TV, played a lot of games, ate a lot of food, and cuddled and kissed each other like there’s no tomorrow (okay, that’s exaggerated).

First Wedding Anniversary

Yesterday, March 17, was our first wedding anniversary. The hubby took me out for a lunch date at Corniche, one of the restaurants inside Diamond Hotel. We had a great time feasting on the wide buffet spread. We’ve dined at Corniche a few times already and every time, the food was good. Nothing spectacular but definitely hotel quality.

Diamond Hotel is close to our hearts. This was where we had our wedding preps and it was a big part of our wedding video and photo shoots. The hubby and I have fond memories of our two-night stay at the hotel (prior and after the wedding) and we like the fact that it’s facing the Manila bay which makes its ambiance truly romantic.

6th Month

My marriage, not my pregnant belly. Another month has passed, and I can’t get over the fact that time flies by so quickly. I guess I better take down notes lest I forget all the happy moments and the little milestones we’ve experienced in the past six months of our togetherness.

Marriage is a delicate thing to handle. While we can never be experts on it, we sure can make ours a good one. With a baby coming soon, our start-up family is on the verge of taking off! What better way to celebrate than with a silent prayer? God is really good. Thank you so much for all the blessings, dear God.
