Common Sense, Simple Solution

 

Even if I wake up early in the morning, I am always running late when I get to school. I usually blame the kids, especially Zach, when we are late (so lame) but I know for a fact that it’s me who is to be blame. I am the last minute guy. I find pleasure when I am pressured. I thrive at the last minute. I get a lot of ideas and deep reflection when I am running late. It benefits me when I am preparing for my class. I get to be more creative and my lessons become more  interesting when I am in the neck of time.

However, preparing for the school is a different case. You that I love to cook breakfast, filipino breakfast. I don’t like pancakes, nor waffles. I like sunny side up eggs, corned beef, spam, bacon or ham. To me that is a hearty and comfy breakfast. When I am doing this, my tardiness problem comes in. Instead of spending time to prepare for the school, I spend more time making breakfast and enjoying it.

Xandrei might have noticed it. Perhaps, he is already tired of running late. Tonight he told me, “Dad, is it ok to suggest to you?” Yes, I told him, give me your suggestion?

Well, can you iron your clothes tonight so as tomorrow we’ll not be late. A wake up call? Certainly it is.

Just Another Day

 

My day is just about to end. From 4 A.M this morning up to 11 tonight, it seemed work is never done. From school to house chores, you simply couldn’t skip. My last task today was to help Zach with his Science Fair. His was way above his grade. But I guess, he needs to grow up faster to be more responsible and take those assignments seriously. I hope what we did (borrowing tons of books, writing the research question, doing research and finalizing the bibliography) was right.

Ylize takes away all our stress. She simply is so sweet. Her signature “Hi Daddy” rejuvenates your tired and weary body. She starts to like Barbie this week. I hope this is just a fad and she will eventually outgrow in two weeks.

Mom, as always, is working. This is her 4th night. I wonder where does she get the energy. We really need to look at our expenses. I believe that no matter how much money you have if you do not know how to manage your resources, everything is not enough. We should be better I managing our finances.

Its Friday tomorrow, a day before our much anticipated weeklong break.

Its frigid today here. Temperature is down at 30 plus the wind chill. I am so looking now for the Spring. I’m tired of this winter. But I guess, it will be a month more before we could see the best weather.
