Swimming the Week Away

I’m here at last!

Hello everyone! Hello world! I miss my routine and I miss you all!

It has been almost a week, I guess, that I haven’t written and published anything. If you’ve read my previous article "Pretty Messy Busy Days," you will definitely know the reason why. Yes! I went missing with the kids. What a great alibi, hehe! But, yes. Life happens, and they can indeed change our world upside down.

Actually, I have to blame my work partly too because it keeps me busy ever since the world began, but I can always squeeze in my virtual hassles in the evening despite a busy day job. Apparently, the past few days have been just so toxic, but it’s a good kind of stressor for me. I love the kids popping into our lives and in the house occasionally. It gives a different kind of joy, it must be a bit tiring but manageable. I just have to scrap out some guilty pleasures, like Netflix, read.cash and my routine exercise in the morning. Hopefully, I’m back in full swing starting today.

So, yes, I went missing for almost a week. My nephews and niece have been keeping me busy. We went swimming almost every day since Thursday! We literally swim the week away, lol!

I know anyone can relate how tiresome your body gets after some hours of swimming. Have you experienced that too? 

Yep, that’s what happened to me. After an afternoon with them in the pool, spring, or on the beach, I’m so exhausted in the evening that I could only tap a few messages to read and to reply on my phone. My eyes would completely give up in doing anything else. It’s amazing how I could fall asleep so fast, lol! I no longer need Netflix for that, haha!

Our hometown, Iligan City, is known to be the “City of Majestic Waterfalls,” thus obviously we have lots of spring resorts and swimming pools nearby. In our neighborhood, we already have two waterfalls, and one of these is so accessible, just a 10-minute drive from home. We went there last Thursday afternoon.

My nephew’s birthday was last Friday and the kids enjoyed swimming in Taytay Resort. Another tiring day that I was so helpless to do anything online in the evening, lol! I’ll be writing about it in a separate article perhaps.

Yesterday was my grandfather’s death anniversary, and we went for a drive to my mom’s hometown. My aunt has a beach house with a small resort on the seaside, which I have shared from this blog "Fun and Sun in Windy Place Beachub Maigo." Of course, spending an afternoon on the beach got the kids thrilled again to play in the sand and in the waters, so yes it’s swimming part three for Saturday.

My brother and his family traveled back to Bukidnon this morning. Aww I kinda miss the noise and chaos. While, I'm back to my old routine, the house is so silent that I can only hear the tapping of my keyboard and the sniffing of the little girl left with us. Poor thing, this is what she got from swimming the week away. I hope the little boys are all doing fine back in their home sweet home.

That's it! Thanks for reading! And, have a blessed Sunday everyone!
