Matti’s Cry, Car Maintenance, Hubby's APE Last week, my husband went for his annual physical exam at a specific health clinic in Tagbilaran City. This was required of his employer but since they need to do it from a partner clinic as it is covered by their HMO, he had to do it in the city. The clinic had no available doctor the other week so they had scheduled him to come back for the physical exam interview with their resident doctor. It’s a Tuesday and the start of the…
Detoxify From the Net While Still in Within the City *The perfect definition of detoxification from the internet and the city pollution.* - Jean Figues Dear ***readerist*** friends! I am going to share with you here a throwback trip when I joined a retreat for our BPO friends, a time to reflect, meditate, and be one with nature, praising God and adoring His wondrous works and what He had been doing in our lives. We had an overnight stay at Lava Mountain River Farm, let me…
Won 100$ of TLOS While Livestreaming I am feeling blessed today because I had received so many blessings! Last night, I was drafting a blog article for the Steemit top 3 recommended posts for booming support. I had been having a hard time finishing it because Matti don’t want to sleep and it was already 10 in the evening. Usually, that blog must be published before 1 PM but it has been past midnight and I was still drafting it. The reason was that I need to check on each…
Thursday Memories on Photos Hello my dear readerists, I was up already at 4:30 AM, my baby boy was crying and I guess he was not having a quality sleep since last night, perhaps because of teething so when I got him back to sleeping, I turned on my laptop and stared on my browser, I have to write but I can't think of what to write, although, I know there are so many things to share. I resorted to reading articles and I stumbled upon @BreadChamp 's who shared some photos…
Bike, Banana, Carbonara, and No Screentime for 3 Days Greetings to everyone! I am really glad that I slept early last night. Technically, it's already a Saturday for me as I begin to write this article. But I am going to talk about Friday and what happened on that day. Sometimes, I begin to think diary stories are boring because my daily routine is just redundant but I am reminded that every day is unique and there will always be new things happening throughout regardless if…
Swap APX to TLOS on TSwaps There has been a dilemma on how to get our earned APX tokens from Appics app. If you are not yet on that application, I would suggest you go check it out because it's going massive in the next few weeks. There are just a few hiccups in the app which is why ambassadors are not yet fully onboarding their friends and investors are just lurking but as soon as the app has been polished, you'll see it going up, perhaps to the moon. Sign up here: Share…
Ukay Day Plus Matti Reading Upsidedown I have this article drafted for almost a day now. I thought I can finish it this afternoon after church but because it is the anniversary of our sister church, I became very busy and had only time to make this article tonight, I am typing this as I am breastfeeding Matti to sleep. I am hoping that I could get this done before my eyelids would close. Weekends are always a fun time because the husband is off from work and so he could take…
Tuna Panga with a View A few weeks before Odette, my husband and I decided to try dining at Jagna Baywalk food park. Jagna is two towns away from us, it isn't too far though, it would take around 15 minutes drive only and since we haven't been here, we decided to go before sundown so we could witness some sunset view but as we were on the car, we saw the sun was already setting, I guess we have to come earlier next time. Only a few people were at the bay when we arrived,…
My Firsts: Dish, Crush, Love, and Hobby I have seen a new prompt again and after reading some especially @BreadChamp 's, I decided to try it as well. So I picked the questions here: Tag questions. http://www.tagquestionss.com/first-time-tag-questions/ So, let’s go into the questions immediately! Tell me about your first cooking experience Before getting married, I am not into cooking, I felt like it was a complicated thing and so as much as possible, I would shy away from…
Get To Know Me! 1/2 Hello there my *readerist* friends! It's another day and another opportunity to write! I am glad that we have prompts and challenges in this platform, we are saved by this phenomenon called writer's block! So I want to thank @Micontingsabit, I read one of her blogs about getting to know the topic, read her article here: Can I Know Me More? She was also inspired by BCH_Lover. So I give the credits to these two persons, I was able to create two articles for…
My Fear, Childhood, Collections, and First Job | Get To Know Me 2/2 Hey guys! I hope you are all doing well today! I had just tucked the baby to bed, he got a mild cold right now so he was a little fuzzy before bedtime so I am expecting another sleepless night for me so that's why I must publish this article fast and go to bed immediately after. This is the second part of my Get To Know Me prompt. If you haven't read the first part, you may check this link: **Get To Know Me!…
Groceries, Food Park, Binignit, and Steemfoods! Dear Readcash friends! I miss writing diary here so I decided to pause with the prompts. I just also realized that I have not written a monthly overview of my February activities and goals so I have to create a draft for that as well. But this article won't include that instead, I will share with you some of the things which had occurred last Wednesday, that's yesterday. It's almost Friday though so I better write this before I…
Our Room at Birds of Paradise Resort In November 2021, after we visited the family in Oslob, my husband and I decided to check-in at one of the resorts in Panglao before heading back to Guindulman. Resorts in Bohol at that time were mostly offering discounted rates due to the pandemic. I searched for which should be the best one for us, it must be affordable but *instagrammable*, if you know what I am saying. I found Birds of Paradise in Tawala, Panglao, this is where the…
Introducing Birds of Paradise Resort Previously, I shared with you how our room at the said resort looked, my husband and I both agreed it was worth booking this. So as promised, allow me to share with you how the outside looks, the entire resort can be roamed around in less than ten minutes, that's how intimate this resort is. I won't prolong this intro though so let's go and check out how the place looks. Related article: **Our Room at Birds of Paradise Resort**…
What Brings Meaning to My Life? I have decided na gawing Taglish ang article na eto. Maraming salamat kay momsh @Micontingsabit at nainspire ako na itry ang Taglish dahil hindi ko pa natry eto ever, or maybe nakapagsulat na ako ng pure Tagalog but not the Taglish one. Lakas makaconyo neto pero pag i-pure Tagalog ko naman, nagloloading ang utak ko. Here's her article: Sari-Saring Tanong https://read.cash/@Micontingsabit/sari-saring-tanong-403461e6 So, this article is all…

Let's Go To Tubigon Hi there my dear *readerists*, I have been wanting to share with you our trip to Tubigon last Sunday but I was very busy I couldn't get to finish this draft plus, the images were still on my phone, I needed to upload them to this article before I could get to start writing because this is a photoblog which means you have to brace yourself for picture overload. So last Sunday, we traveled to Cebu City but a day before that, we had checked which one was the…
Leaving Tubigon Behind My previous article was all about our road trip from Guindulman to Tubigon. Check the article here: **Let's Go To Tubigon** https://read.cash/@Momentswithmatti/lets-go-to-tubigon-96dfa7c3 The photos attached on that blog were all taken on my mobile and were unedited, I never had the chance to straighten the images or improve the color grading, those were taken straight from my phone and so thus this article here. This time, allow me to share with you…
Guindulman Public Market Photography In an early morning, my feet brought me to our town's local market, on a Sunday, this is packed with vendors and customers but since it is a Saturday, there's no crowd which was a good thing as I brought my camera with me. *Am I the only one who feels awkward with bringing a camera and taking photos in a public place? I know I shouldn't but I feel that way each time.* Anyway, my husband and baby were buying some food at the nearby…
Saturday Night at the Food Park On Saturday before breakfast, my mother and I were both hanging our washed clothes and she mentioned the food park in Jagna. I told her that we had been there but that was during lunch. I suggested we must check it out at night so they can also experience dining there. She agreed. At the table, while having breakfast, my mother opened up the idea to my father and they both agreed. Everyone else loved the idea. But Saturday is a busy day for my…
SM Seaside Shopping for Rash Guard Greetings my friends from Readcash universe! I am really glad that while here in Oslob, I am able to hustle really hard because my baby is busy playing with other kids, cousins, and my mother-in-law is really hands-on in also looking after him, so I got a lot of me-time while here. It's like I am also on vacation, Matti and mama get to spend together only when he asks for liquid gold. And so today, I had published a few articles on…
Visiting Arcanys Again It's been two years or maybe more than that since I had been to JY Square. When I got pregnant, I spent most of my time at home because of the pandemic. There was a notice of lockdown in all parts of the country and so it was a little scary going out. My husband's company had allowed their employees to work from home, they were allowed to bring their PC units, and eventually, they were issued with laptops for more portability. It's my first time to…
Remember Labor Two days ago, my sister in law gave birth to her second child. Her first is a girl and now, they have a boy. Seeing her newborn's pictures make me miss those times when Matti was still a little one, very fragile and helpless. Looking at a newborn makes me think of how I am too was like that once in my life. We all have been in that state and it brings me so much joy that my parents had done all their best to nourish me. Now, since I was feeling nostalgic…
Private Villa in Panglao Livingroom & Kitchen My husband and I got married on a holiday. We made it that way so not to miss celebrating our anniversary. Thank goodness that this year, after two years of the pandemic, Bohol and perhaps the entire country is slowly getting back to normal, I mean the new normal with our facemasks on. Panglao's resorts are still offering lower rates though due to the significantly low number of tourists on the island. Boholanos can truly take…
Pineale's Bedroom and Bath + Pool Review Previously, I had shared about the living room and kitchen at Pineale Resort and Spa in Tawala, Panglao, Bohol, Philippines.

Going to South Cebu, Oslob After all the things we had done in Cebu City, it was time to go to Oslob. This is the main reason why we traveled to the province. If you had checked my previous postings, these were the events in the past days: **Let's Go To Tubigon** https://read.cash/@Momentswithmatti/lets-go-to-tubigon-96dfa7c3 **Leaving Tubigon Behind** https://read.cash/@Momentswithmatti/leaving-tubigon-behind-d3165b70 **SM Seaside Shopping for Rash Guard**…
Swimming Time! One of the things that I like about being in Oslob is how accessible the beach is, and I mean the public beach. Back in Bohol, although we have beaches too, it would take us time to get to a white sand one, we still have to travel around 10-20 minutes to get to one however, in Oslob, we just walk for around five minutes and we can already enjoy the seawater. So when we reached Oslob on Tuesday last week, our first goal was to swim especially since Matti had a…
I Am Older Than My Husband I am so glad that we have a lot of challenges and prompts these days, this means, I don’t have to think too much about a topic to write about. Tomorrow, we are heading back to Cebu City which means, I won’t be facing the laptop anymore for a few hours until the evening. But I am also excited because that means, we will be going to new places again. We are planning on going to Charlie’s Cup and then we will head back to my husband’s office because…
My Husband Broke His Macbook Pro Screen and I am Crying! Today's not a good day, there are really times when we just wished we didn't do such actions, now we have no option but to accept that there will be things that would go wrong in our lives. We reached Cebu City on Thursday night, we were told that the campaign starts on Friday and it might cause traffic so we decided to travel Thursday evening, we reached the city at 11 in the evening. We were both tired and…
When I Was a Student All thanks to these prompts, I am here again with another question and answer article. This time, I am joining the challenge regarding my school life. At magtataglish ako dito kasi, why not, bet ko lang. I read @Usagi ’s entry and I knew right away that I will be joining, naka Taglish din siya so ginaya ko lang. Haha. Without further ado, here are the questions: `Skipped A Class` Never akong ng skip ng class illegally, I mean, nakapagskip ako dahil sa…
Photobook Collection: My First, More Than 10 Years Old In a previous articles, I had mentioned about my collections of photobooks. Since I am fond of taking photos and traveling, I make sure to keep a tangible item for these travels. I still have a lot of backlogs though due to the changes in our location and so many things to do with the baby and my side hustles online. But I will keep and create them soon. Today, I'd like to share with you one of my photobooks. When we…
Why Are Toys Soo Expensive? Yesterday, I shared some frustrations about my husband not being there when I needed him as well as some bad happenings with the laptop but before I had those bursting moments, our small family was enjoying our time at Metro Ayala. My husband received a Sodexo gift card worth Php 1,000 from their company, it was from last December 2021, aside from receiving an item, every employee also gets a gift card and I want to spend it on Matti's toys. I…

Photobooks: Coron, Boracay, Davao I am not yet done with our photobook collection and I'd like to post all of them before I move on to another diary or prompt articles. I actually have a couple of drafts on my list but I'd like to just finish with the photobook first so even if I am itching to really publish a post right now, I just have to halt it a bit and get this one done first. If you have not checked the previous articles, I'd highly recommend that you go click on each…
Digital Bible Verses I had shared a few travel photobooks, but today, as the start of the month, allow me to also share with you a project that I had heartily created following a 30 day Bible verse challenge. Around 2020 when I had the luxury of time because I was pregnant and we all stayed at home because of COVID, I used my iPad to create Bible verse letterings and made a photobook after finishing the challenge. I was so happy that I was able to complete that and so proud…
