I’ve been to Australia more than five years ago and I enjoyed my stay at Sydney. We had an international convention there that was attended by 60,000 delegates at the Olympic Park. It was such a memorable event in my life.

We also got to tour on some of the major attractions like the blue mountains, and the darling harbour to name a few. Australia is a very nice place to visit. If I could go back I would like to see the other parts like the Gold Coast which is famous for their beaches, shopping and theme parks. So maybe I should try to search for hotels in gold coast and see if there are cheap deals. If there is none then there is no harm to try out hotels in surfers paradise.

But then again, I should be searching hotels in Adelaide instead. Adelaide is a charming place flavoured by local wineries and murray river.

Or how about perth hotels? Hey, they are all good places to go so I can’t seem to settle down on which one I want to visit. A women can be fickle minded sometimes. Hahaha!

As early as now, we are teaching B.boy to be polite and cultivate good manners. He now knows to say thank you whenever he is given something. He says ‘Opo’ when talking to elders and he says please whenever he wants something.

A few nights ago, we are on the bed playing when he wants to get the pillow underneath my head. He keeps on tugging the pillow but obviously he will not be able to pull it out because of my weight so he blurted out ‘mommy, alis’ while shoving me away.

I sat down, held his hand and looked at his face while telling him we need to talk. We usually get his attention by doing that. He knows that whenever we do that it means there is something important that we want to tell him.

Mommy: B.boy, if you want to get something that someone is using or you want to go some place else and somebody is blocking your way, it is better to say “excuse me”.
B.boy: Okay.

A week has passed and the same thing happens. He wants to go to the other side of the bed but I’m blocking the way. I was surprised when he said “excuse me mommy”.

I have asthma and I’m very prone to allergies too. My known triggers are smoke and stress. Occasionally, I get hives too. Hives are raised itching welts that appear suddenly on the skin, usually remain for a few hours and then disappear as mysteriously as they came. Two years ago I was confined because my whole body was full of hives and they won’t go away with drinking medicines. They have to give the medicines intravenously and they also need to monitor my condition.

An allergologist was referred but she couldn’t figure out why I’m having hives. In short she doesn’t know what triggers my allergies. M0rn1ng believes that it is because of cat dander. I have a pet cat that has been with me even before we got married.

We had the cat transferred to my mother in law’s place after B.boy was born and we got it back again a few months ago because of mice infestation in our house. Since our ‘little friends’ are now gone, M0rn1ng wants the cat back to her mom’s house. I’m reluctant with that because the cat is a bit old already and transferring houses causes stress to animals too. So I’m thinking of keeping the cat and just get a dyson animal vacuum , dyson animal vacuum, dyson animal vacuum (three for emphasis) to get rid of cat dander. I’m not sure if he agrees. I understand that he just wants the best for me and B.boy but I love that cat too.

Oh, let’s just see how it goes.
