MMT in MK (Free subscription) | 26/11/2009

"ARE YOU FILIPINA?" were the words I heard when I answered the phone. Me: Well, yes. Sort of. My Mom's from the Philippines. Telemarketer: (giggles) Well, that's great. So you are Filipina. Me: (not wanting to go through my entire family tree, but my Dad's not Filipino. He's Chinese from the Caribbean. That makes me not 100% Filipina.

Saying goodbye to mother

Healing Philosophy (Free subscription) | 25/11/2009

Once when I was 2 or 3 years old, my mother pretended to be unconscious or dead. Of course I called out and fretted and shook her and just before I got too upset she of course ‘woke up’ and hugged me. She told me if it ever happens again I must go and get the neighbours. She would have been 23 or 24, a young mother playing games with her son. My mother died last week, aged 73, far from...

Minkie's Paper Paradise (Free subscription) | 24/11/2009

Since I received my new Wags n Whiskers stamp last week I just can't get enough of it! I think it has to be my fave Christmas stamp this year, especially as there's a little cat on it! So, even though I have lots of stamps worthy of using for my Christmas cards, I've once again turned to this stamp! I think maybe because it's a good size too, so I don't have to think too much when putting a card together...

Taking Baby to New Moon!

Life On Manitoulin (Free subscription) | 24/11/2009

I've been pretty fortunate to have a baby who is generally happy, good tempered, and easy going. I have been lucky that I'm able to take her everywhere I go. It is also my belief (probably my very naive belief!) that if I teach Little One that we go out to movies, plays, concerts and church, she'll learn that this is what we do and she'll learn how to act in those kinds of social settings. Maybe I'm...
