Shelved under My Family, My Thoughts, Snapshots, Weekend Snapshots

As I have written here, weekend, specifically Saturday, was rather drab. A bed weather day as they say.

No special places to go to for Mother’s Day. I didn’t want to go anywhere where there are lots of people with their children running around and just wanted to savor being at home for this special day so we stayed in. No traffic, no noise, just peace and quiet.

Belated Happy Mother’s Day Julie. Glad you enjoyed the bed weather and spent quality time with the family.

I missed a lot of memes this week including PH and WS. I’ll catch up next week.

Take care.

Sometimes or most times staying at home is really better than dealing with traffic and the mob. Belated happy mothers day.

Ghee, sorry po ha, that is not a black and white photo that is colored. That was how the day looked like, gray and sad.

Thanks for the visit :)

:D Thanks, Meeya.

It was my day and they (hubby and son) “honored” my request to stay at home. Alam mo naman dito sa atin if there are occasions like these, jampacked.

Thanks for the visit, Rachel, even if you are very busy.

Sometimes I feel tired, doing all these memes, especially I travel to and from work, I am exhausted already and not in the mood to bloghop.

Still I try, even if I don’t get to visit a lot of entries. One meme though that I get to visit with enthusiasm is PH since I have made a lot of friends there. And it is up on weekends :)

Thanks, Cookie. Maybe because sawa na ding lumabas so staying at home is a luxury for me. Not for long since I will be cutting down the days I have to go to Ortigas.

Jampacked talaga. They could not persuade me to go anywhere. Would have wanted to go to one of my favorite places but we didn’t wake early enough for that.

I love the flowers in your garden. At ang ganda ng macro shots mo ha :)

I love this entry … this turning away from the worldly rituals of a so-called special day (made so by the commercial sector) and turning inwards.

Plus i love the picture too.
