Wasn’t Able to Make It

I am still awake! Or let me rephrase that, I just woke up around 12mn from an evening nap and now I am awake, alive, alert but not that enthusiastic. I had a very rough day both online and offline. It seems that I was not getting the best of both worlds yesterday. All I was getting was stress and more stress!

Anyway, I wasn’t able to finish my tasks yesterday. I was not able to beat the deadline as my boy’s exam took longer than I thought. We were finished nearly 5pm and we went downtown to run some errands. When we got home around 6pm plus, I turned my computer on. I was hoping to finish some tasks before the deadline. Then bang! A black-out took place causing me to withdraw from my work station. I involuntarily took a nap because I had no choice!

A few hours later, the lights were back, my husband woke me up so that we could eat dinner together. After dinner, I immediately turned on the PC but sadly, I was already too late. The cut-off has already taken place. So I calculated my earnings, and to my own despair, it’s not enough to compensate our bills that will occur this week. And that makes me so SAD!! I am now worried where I will be getting the money to pay off this week’s dues? It’s driving me insane!

I am hoping that a miracle will happen this week! I hope God will intervene and provide away for us to get through this. I am not actually praying to be rich or be famous blogger of some sort but I am only hoping that I could pay the bills, help bring food on the table and earn enough to buy Jollibee or McDonalds for my children every now and then.

Oh God, please help us with our needs!

A Post Before I Go to Sleep

My husband has just left for work and I am now about to go to sleep. I was awake all night doing some of my pending assignments. They are not actually due today but to get paid this Friday, I need to finish them before the cut-off which is tonight. I also followed up my ISP because one my clients (and me too) is having a problem accessing her blog. My hosting didn’t have any problem because the data is intact and other friends and colleagues were able to access but the problem was our ISP is not allowing us to view her blog properly. So, I stayed up also monitoring and following our ISP (we have the same ISP) so my client and I will have a peace of mind.

Sad to say, I was not able to finish all of my assignments. I still have few left. I wanted to continue doing some posts because I am not yet sleepy but my conscience struck me. I am carrying a baby inside and I have school kids that need to be ready before lunch time. I know I am desperate to earn for the family and for our monthly bills and credit payments, but I guess the money I will earn will not be enough if I get sick. I am more useful when I am healthy, so I better sleep and rest. I will try to finish all my assignments later this afternoon. My son will have an exam, so I guess we will not be staying longer at their school. I may have some time to finish before the cut-off tonight!Wish me luck!

As for the ISP, thank God they already have resolved the problem and now I can access my clients blog. So at least now, I can sleep. :D

The Month That Was

I was really planning to update this blog everyday but I guess I could never do that as of now. I am still alone against all odds everyday because I still have not found someone to help me with the household chores. My house is chaotic during weekdays and even more during weekends when everyone is around.

Anyway, I am not complaining but I guess if you don’t have someone to help you around; you are really bound to sacrifice few important things to give way to more essential and immediate matters such as your children’s education. As for my online endeavors and community projects, I have to delay them and try to accomplish them according to urgency. That means, less money in and more money out because of our daily with our home expenses and obligations.

Hopefully, I pray that God will give me someone who will be loyal to the family and a good house help. If I get someone like that, probably I could organize my life more especially with my new baby coming this September.

Oh well, as of now, I am glad that I am about to survive one month without any help at all. Though the house looks like a messed-up closet and our laundry is piling-up against the ceiling, I think we have survived! I guess….

Still Awake at 3:00AM

Every time I have a new blog, I can’t help but concentrate on updating it. I can’t stop the urge to find and upload plugins and themes I want. After that, I make some personal modifications to suit my taste.

Now, it’s already 3:00am and I am still awake. I was supposed to update and make a post in my other blogs but I caught updating and modifying only this one. I think I have spent at least an hour or more just looking for the theme I want, then another few hours tweaking the looks and adding several plugins. I also placed the links to some social networking websites that I have an account with so that people can connect with me there if they want to.

Anyway, since I am pregnant, I think I should control and stop myself now. I am still inspired to update my other blogs but I have obligations to my family in the morning. So better hit the bed and grab some snoozes.

But before that, how do you find the theme I have installed? Do you like it? My oldest blog was themed with color pink ever since time immemorial but my first love is blue, so for this one, I am planning to have a blue theme all the way!

Hello World!

The first time I used the pen name “Pinay Mommy” was when I started back exploring the world of paid to click programs. I was fond of them that is why I always sign-up with the same username “pinaymommy;” then around November 2007, my friend of my invited me to start blogging. She said that blogging can help me earn money from home legally.

So, I registered my first blog at www.blogger.com. Since the URL http://pinaymommy.blogspot.com was already taken, I registered http://pinay-mommy.blogspot.com. Then later joined many blog related companies using the name “pinaymommy” and even registered to social networking sites with the same username. Later around January 2008, I have registered my own domain www.pinaymommyonline.com and tied it with my http://pinay-mommy.blogspot.com. I was actually choosing between www.pinaymommy.com and www.pinaymommyonline.com at that time but I have chosen the later.

To make the story short, I became known all over the blogosphere and some social networking sites with the pen name “pinaymommy.” So, out of nowhere, I just decided to buy this domain even though I have no intention of making another blog because I already have a handful to maintain including other several community sites.

Anyway, I am planning to update this blog as often as I can. Update you with my latest online and offline activities and even some of my experiences that I believe its worth to share. By the way, I am not expecting you to visit this blog of mine but if it’s not too much to ask, if would be very nice of you if you could subscribe using the form below. And if you find any of my post interesting, well, I don’t really mind if you could visit me and leave a comment. Would that be OK? If so, that is really great!
