Weekend Story: TAP Cavite Chapter Christmas Party + Quick Trip to our Naic Home

Last weekend was quite busy. The hubby and I were helping our new neighbors to move stuff. On Saturday, the hubby and I, along with my father, drove to our Naic home to pick up some furnishings to be brought to Bacoor. We also did some cleaning at the new house in preparation for the big move. We were quite exhausted but you know, family comes first. I think we only got to unwind when we attended the Christmas party of the hubby’s car club (Cavite Chapter only, this time) held at Musikapihan in Imus. I liked the place, the food, and of course, the company. I met this happy couple (the guy is a new member of the car club) and we chatted a bit about life in general. They were nice and I would love to see them again in the car club’s next events.

Weekend Story: House Repair + Bonding with Relatives

Our weekend was quite fun. On Saturday, we had some repairs done at our new neighbor’s house which required a trip to Wilcon Depot. On Sunday, we had lunch at a cousin’s place in Mandaluyong and got to bond with our relatives from Iloilo. We even got to enjoy free body massage courtesy of an aunt who is a great masseuse. Now my body aches a lot but in a good way naman, hahaha. That night, the hubby and I, along with my SIL Albie, checked out this newest food park to open in Bacoor for dinner. Our experience was quite forgetabble, though. The place was nice and it was not yet crowded but somehow I felt that it lacked a festive vibe. That, or I just chose the wrong food which put me in a not so good mood during my stay there.

Weekend Story: TAP Christmas Party 2018

Last weekend was a bit slow and quiet. The hubby and I, along with my SIL Albie, were just at home on Saturday doing the usual chores. On Sunday, I joined the hubby to his car club’s Christmas party held at Santolan Town Plaza in San Juan. It’s a nice-looking mixed-use development by Rockwell. The venue of the party was on the 11th floor. We had fun catching up with his car club friends.

Weekend Story: Adjustment Period (Bacoor for Good) + Our New Neighbors!

Last long weekend went by swiftly. It felt like I just blinked and the weekend was over just like that. A lot of things happened, actually. On Thursday, the hubby and I took a leave from work so we could help in packing the rest of the stuff at my PILs’ place that needed to be packed and moved. But before we could fill a balikbayan box with more stuff, fate had something in store for us. We had to accompany my two siblings to the bank because their home loan has finally been approved and contracts had to be signed. My side of the family is also staying in Bacoor for good. We are buying the house next to ours in Bacoor. As in the next door house. Ang saya-saya lang! Magkapitbahay na kami! We all prayed for this and our collective prayers were granted so thank you very much, Lord! 🙂

Weekend Story: Moving Tasks + Hospital Duties

Last weekend was spent packing and moving stuff. The hubby and I, along with my side of the family, also got busy attending to Mame’s needs in the hospital. She had a bad fall while taking a bath on Thursday morning and complained of intense back pain after, so we rushed her to the ER of Manila Doctors Hospital at Ermita. Apparently, she had a spine compression fracture and the ER doctor recommended that she get admitted in the hospital for pain management. She had an option for a surgery (kyphoplasty) for faster recovery but she declined (we supported her decision) upon knowing that the compression would heal on its own naman. She stayed in the hospital until Sunday afternoon and was prescribed more pain meds. She’s fine now and the pain is quite tolerable already but she’ll be back in the hospital for follow up check-ups next week.

Weekend Story: Preparing for the Big Move

So, the time has come that we have to stay in Bacoor for good. The property where my PILs work as caretakers (and where they are currently residing and the hubby and I staying in during weekdays) has already been sold. Last weekend, we have started packing and moving stuff to Bacoor. We will be doing the same in the coming weekends because we only have until the end of the November in Manila.
