a blogger’s checklist

03.02.2011 No Comments

i’ve been a subscriber of daniel scocco for sometime now, and i’ve been learning a lot from his posts and here is yet another tip and trick i would like to share with you, especially the newbies (just like myself) in blogging. we have quite a lot to learn along the way, and thanks to sites like DailyBlogTips, loads of information and helpful tips are available to us online and free of charge!

read the entire article here.

i particularly need to remind myself of tip #5, i almost always end up publishing my post with a wrong spelling because i failed to proofread it twice (since i will always overlook something the first time i read it)

so the next time you click “publish” make sure you’ve ticked all these hints for a publish-perfect post. hope it helps!

Adoracion de Leon Parungao

October 25, 1949 – February 03, 2007

“But she wasn’t around,

and that’s the thing when your parents die,

you feel like instead of going in to every fight with backup,

you are going into every fight alone.”
~ Mitch Albom (For One More Day)

and maybe, maybe if thinking about it won’t hurt as much anymore

and writing about it won’t bring as much tears as it does

and maybe, maybe if growing older meant a better ability to cope

and if the passing of time will erase the pain

and fill the void…

maybe, i’ll just cheer myself with the thought

that you were looking down on us,

and saw my little boy,

and you smiled…

Whatta Wonderful Week! #1

03.02.2011 No Comments

firstly, i would like to apologize for the delay in my posting for this blog hop, i should’ve posted this last monday, but childminding, amongst other things, got in the way..so without further ado, this is my entry to the very first whatta wonderful week blog meme! hosted by our very own, pinay mommy blogger, mommy trish.

last week, i finished two paid to post articles, which is now posted here and the one for bv posted here. i did metion that one of my 2011 resolution is to earn through blogging, so hopefully, slowly but surely i’ll be able to accomplish just that:)

i also went to the eye doctor last saturday; i was playing around with my son friday night when i felt something caught in my right eye, which instantly hurt my eye and made it watery. upon inspection, my bro, ken and sis, cel, found this little wood splinter or insect lodged in my eye (in between the eye balls and that pink soft part). my fears kicked into overdrive with my mind quickly reasoning “you can still do your childminding duties with one eye!). but just so i can stop fuzzing and worrying, i went to an eye doctor the next day to have it examined and, blessed be, it turned out to be a mole that i just wasn’t able to discover before now. weird, right?

on sunday, jared and i (with my sis, cel, in tow) went to the grand baby company fair and met jared’s ultimate favorite, pocoyo! apart from that we also managed to score some good buys and fantabulous freebies. (i will make a separate post about it!)

here’s how we play this meme, straight from mommy trish’s post:
