Random Thinkabouts on a Good Friday

There were days that you may feel tired and you just want to lie on your bed stare at the ceiling and think about random things. Something random that you got to reflect on yourself as a human being, you got to reflect how your life has been, or you got to reflect what could have been.

This is just going to be a short random post on my day and something to think about.

I am drafting this article at 12:26md, feeling sleepy and tired. What did I do to feel this tired and sleepy on a Good Friday? The day was actually good aside from the fact that I was tired. By the way, my parents and our youngest sister went to Albay for our family Holy week tradition which I will write about soon. They will be back home by Sunday evening.

My sister, M, and her family are here so we can have someone to be with. If there weren't here, it's just me and Lil B alone for 4 days. Anyway, this morning my sister and her family were out because her in-laws usually do Visita Iglesia during Holy Week. As soon as they left our house, I noticed something on our sink.

Yeah I know so much for a good Friday. It was just me and Lil B in the house and I needed to do something about it because there was a leak under the sink and when I checked under, there were water that was about to flood out.

I tried to fix it, I failed. I stopped repairing this shizz and turned off the water meter instead. After my sister got home, we turned on the water metere again beacause she needs to water our plants. At the same time, I took advantage to wash the dished on the sink and felt like I need to repair the faucet again. Good thing that Lil B was too sleepy and tired from crying when I first attempted to fix the faucet.

I took the cling wrap tape and a rubber and tied the faucet with it. After a few attempts, my back hurts but I managed to do a little remedy.

Tadah! Not a great job, but I think I still did well. Now, we will have to wait and look for someone who can fix this as soon as my parents get home.

I actually plan to post it the same day I drafted this article but the me, fell asleep. I don't know I felt a little too tired the past few days.

The tiredness that I felt was similar when we went to Nueva Ecija to attend our friends' wedding. This time I was just at home with my sister, her husband and my niece. I can't really deny that having a little assistance is really burning me out. It could help me lose weight though. I just need to come up with an exercise or activity that both Lil B and I can do. Soon we'll be moving out from my parents' house and we'll be on our own.

To all mommies out there, I salute all of you. We all deserve a break from something.

It's okay to cry when you're tired
It's okay to be frustrated
It's okay to be release your frustrations
It's okay to ask for help
It's okay to take a break

Mothers are definitely wonderwoman of all times but we do have weaknesses.
Let your house be a mess so you can rest.
Your physical and mental health is your child's health and well-being too.
It's okay. You're a mom and it's all worth it.

This is just a simple message to other moms out there. I am sharing this message because that's what I am feeling right now. I have so many guilts, I have so many things to say and do but seeing my Lil B's smile takes me into a different world.
