2nd day of cooking lunch Usually we pack breakfast and lunch but as I mentioned yesterday that hubby requested me to cook lunch for the carpenters so this is our 2nd day cooking lunch. Doing the cooking in the farm is fun and you will forget your diet. Yesterday, it was mongo with coconut milk and today is sinabawang gulay with shrimp and fried fish. This will take a week to finish building the sty and we are exciting for this new and additional venture from God.

Who can relate having a husband that make you tail him anywhere/everywhere and whatever he does? Mapa hardware, mapa delivery, mapa farm, mapa carpentry buntot ka pa rin? Whaahh!! Minsan nasisira ang sarili mong schedule kasi may lakad sya o gagawin sya na kelangan nandun ka rin.lol! But then, mas ok na to kesa naman umaalis sya ng hindi mo alam kung saan ang lakad at kung ano ang gagawin. So how is your Sunday pipz?

Morning with oatmeal🤭 I mean in my face. Oatmeal paste as my facial mask helps my sensitive skin. I consistently do this as my skin care. I add it up an aloe vera as a moisturizer. No creams and powder for months. I can go out without them on my face. I choose to be natural than suffer the side effect later. Good morning Monday!! Safety hustling!!

Twenty-five Twenty-one An on going Series on Netflix, who is watching with me? I just missed Nam Joo-hyuk !! I just want to borrow Hee Doo's line, " Distance with your opponent is the most important thing in fencing, and I think I failed in it. I expected too much from you and Yu-Rim." *Sometimes we expected too much from others according to how we look up to them or how we know them but we don't see the flaw and that flaw might be the reason for distancing or drawing…

Father and son convo and bonding is priceless!! What do you think are they talking about?lol! My husband is crashing the coconut to have cocomilk again. Mahilig sa gata or nagtitipid lang? Hindi na kasi bumibili ng gulay sa labas hanap ka nlng ng bunga ng langka, puso ng saging or mga dahon dahon sa paligid. Life in the farm is not that costly for those who know how to plant and raise farm animals.

Because the weather was bad in the morning, the carpentry work was cancelled and I did not cook lunch.We ended up buying our viand. I also bought a piece of mango for dessert and it tastes good. They say, the fruit in season is the fruit we needed the most. Just like watermelon during summer and mango is rich in dietary fiber, I think mango will be needed for all seasons. Thinking for what to snack later🤭

"Piko" Batang 90's alam na alam laruin ang piko at masaya yan lalo na sa bukid. Kanina na babuyan kami kaya tinuruan ko si Markey how to play 'piko" ay naenjoy naman nya. Timely din sa lesson nila na counting kaya ayun, nagtake na rin ako ng video para sa behind the scene. Children nowadays do not engage in physical games but online at mobile games. The greatest challenge for mothers is to teach them to play outside wherein they can run, jump, slide and get sweat. Still a…

Breakfast in the shop with the gang!! As promised, my daughter come with us today in the shop. It is Saturday and she has no other task to do in the house so it is our time to be together having breakfast as family in the shop. We can only be together during dinner. I am having a deal to her today that she needs to learn to sell, bag and to do the cashiering work and she will receive allowance in return. She agreed so let us see how long it will lasts🤭 For lunch, we will be…

Press On!! From the message during the worship service until the closing song spoke about pressing on!! Press on in serving the Lord! Expect challenges and struggles. Take effort at your best, no excuses, just press on to gain the crown! These words are so familiar and "gasgas" na but if you really pressing on with your commitment, it will strike you within. If you are struggling, just be reminded of the blood shed by Jesus Christ, that was the best example of pressing on!!…

What keeps you warm in this cold rainy afternoon?! Is it coffee? Pillow? Cuddle buddy? As for me, playing this legendary mobile games on my hubby's cellphone, Farm Heroes Saga ( who is playing this game) keep me warm. I can't move on with the next level , been out of life and again for refill. Who can help me win over on this 1645 level?! Whoaahh!! He was playing it since 2010. Ok lang maulan wag lang mawalan ng signal at power.
@Halmarkey
The rain pours harder today than yesterday. There are floods along the way to shop and we decided to commute via tricycle because using car at this situation will not work. Hope and pray that it will not cause damages in humans, animals and plants. Rain in summer will affect the seasonal fruit that needs summer heat and the quality of the harvests. Had our breakfast with this Potato ramen, this is the 1st time trying this flavor and it tastes to my satisfaction. Let us all…

Dami ko nang pinaglalaban sa buhay, dumagdag pa tong clan ng mga pusa ko sa shop.lol! Kumakain ang asawa ko ng breakfast kanina at sumaktong dumating ang delivery for our restocking kaya tumayo sya naiwan ang pagkain sa mesa. Pagbalik nya, saktong tinangay ng pusa ang ulam nya kaya galit na galit sya. Lumabas ang lighting at thunder sa bibig nya. Hindi ko sya maawat sa sitwasyong ayokong kami ang mag away kasi nakikitanv nabadtrip talaga sya.hinayaan ko syang kumain at ako…

Holiday getaway but you can't go?! Take out your sunglass and pose in a good background. Lol! Yeah! I did it today🤣 I just chose to enjoy the holiday being an audience and chaperon of my hubby in doing his welding works. He needs to finish the sty this weekend because the piglets we are about to buy is already in the right age. Unpaid holidays and forfeited time to enjoy are always part of the investment. If you want to engage in a business, expect more of these!!!
@Halmarkey
Having an afternoon coffee? After the bad weather, summer heat can be felt. Would you dare to have a coffee at this hour? Sipping a coffee makes my mind travel. It brings me to the another world.lol! I am just overwhelmed of the things God is pouring me and I wonder if I deserve those things.whoaahhh!! I just need another cup of coffee to be awake. I was composing this content for about an hour now and I just need to finish this before the sun sets to be relatable.lol!
@Halmarkey
Holiday Hang over?! Holiday is finally over!The school send the lesson for the for my kindergarten son and we will be having our lesson time again tomorrow, activity and performance tasks to do. Who is wishing for the holiday to be extended?Maybe some of you are travelling back to the city for work tomorrow, just be safe and for those who are at home, let us sleep early to regain strength and get ready for tomorrow's hustle. Good night pipz and blessed resurrection sunday!!
@Halmarkey
Sty update!! Its been 2 weeks building the sty, had overtime during the holyweek until last night and today will be the final ang finishing day. In hog raising the sty is the most important part of the investment. It could be playing the biggest role along the process. Engaging in this kind of business will be another adjustment and learning. More update and topic about livestock in coming posts!!
@Halmarkey
Sty Ready to Occupy!! Finally! It is ready be occupied but before we get the piglets we disinfect the whole area for to be free from bacteria. Later before the sun sets we will be getting the piglets that we bought from the nearby farm. It is not healthy to travel the piglets under the heat of the sun to avoid stress. We will be raising 12 heads to start! Whoahh!!hog raising nowadays is costly and risky pero saan ba ang walang risk at walang gastos? Magmahal nga eh, magastos…
@Halmarkey
Retake! Retake! Retake! I brought Markeyboy today to the shop to finish his performance task and activities for the week. Tomorrow will be the deadline and we need to finish everything today. It happened that his teacher reminded me of a video need to submit using the Mother Tongue in a content. Karay-a is out local dialect and my son is not that fluent in karay-a. He used to speak in Tagalog or English so I need to coach him what to say. It took us how many retakes to…

Welcome to your new home piggies!! Here they are resting after having their lunch. Sana all piglets!! They are 12 all in all divided into 2 rooms. We are feeding them with Pigrolac products. We are planning to use both variety, the Vital (cheaper product) with the 6 piglets and the Premium ( pricey) with another 6 piglets. We will be comparing the result since they are siblings. Let us see after 85 days!!
@Halmarkey
As we started our piggery business, I realized I should have a calendar with me. It is the basic need to prepare because we need to monitor the feeding according to its brand feeding guide and at the same time the budget for it. Aside from the calendar, I am taking notes of the milestone or the activity that happens on the process because it will be useful for the next cycle of batch of piglets. My husband had an experience raising the hogs way back 10 years ago but this is…

Why record both sales and expenses? In business these two are the blood life but in Christian life, they are the basic figures you need for your tithe and offerings. Every single centavo you need to record it for you to have an accurate source of data when giving your tithe. Who is practicing tithing here?This is my own way to record my income and increase for weekly and monthly tithes. Done our dinner and now in bed.

Alarm Clock for Morning Struggle!! Who is using an alarm everyday to wake you up?! For me, my alarm is set everyday at 6am not to wake me up but its for my bath time! Yeah, my eyes don't need an alarm clock to wake up, it has its own waking up time at 4am - 5am!! I need to take a bath at this hour to have enough time to prepare everything before we leave the house or else everything will be ruined. Morning struggle is for real for me. I am a wife, a mother, an entrepreneur,…

Is it a Glitch?! My feed does not show the recent posts and the lastest post I can only view is 5hours ago and when the were comments or replies in my post I can't open to read and to share my blessing (see the 2nd picture). Is anyone experiencing like mine? When posting the reminder about spamming pop ups.

Mama Pig is in the House now!! In addition to our piglets, we decided to have a mama pig.We went to a farm to select or to see if is a good breed. Unintentionally we brought Markeyboy and we did not expect that it was far for him to walk and there was a bamboo made small bridge to cross. His dad carried him at his back to cross because he was afraid to. When we got there, here is Mama pig and the breed is Petrain! Who is a hog raiser here? What can you say with this breed?

My husband got a cut while doing a carpentry work in the farm. I went out to look for any medicinal plant for first aide just to stop the bleeding. "Sa bukid walang papel pero my dahon". I found this "bungarngar" (medicinal plant) that the elders used to put in the wound like my husband's. It stopped the bleeding and it cleansed the wound.My husband continued what he was doing. I was not active for more than 24 hours because of the fiesta that made me an instant cook…

Weekends for you but it's a day to start a new week for me!! It's Saturday and we brought Markey in the shop today! I need to make up time to teach him in reading. Being in a home school, I am the one who can assess his progress. The school year will end soon in June and I am not confident about his reading. He will be in Grade one on the coming school opening so we have to double our time in reading. I downloaded some short stories and poems for his reading materials. We…
