DIY-ing

Even as a kid, I was never the crafty type. I did not enjoy arts because I felt that it always took so long to finish. LOL! But when I started a home with my husband, things changed. I guess nature has a way of changing people to so they can better perform their new roles. I am now always on the lookout for making new things from whatever I see around the house, either for practical use or as a decorative piece. Do you want project ideas, too?

Back to the Grind

When I tendered my resignation, I started visualizing my life as a SAHM. I figured I will have more time to do more things. Boy, was I sooooo wrong! I barely have the time to go to the bathroom to do my thing! That, I can find time for, no matter how difficult. I have to! But other things? Unfortunately, they're kicked out of my to-do list. One major example is exercising. I used to be a constant image in the nearby gym. Nothing compares to starting my day with a nice workout. Now, I just couldn't do it anymore.

This is me. And this is my life.

Welcome, guys! My name is Myra, a stay-at-home mom of two cute little girls aged 2 and 3. I lived a pretty cool single life. I had a great time working as a business development executive for a known skincare and cosmetics brand. You could say that I was paid to look good. 😉 And not only that, I also had the opportunity to travel to different countries to promote the brand. I got married when I was 31. I did not slow down one bit. I felt like I didn't have to. My husband was equally busy as a law firm partner. We just saw to it that we took care of our marriage and one another, but our separate careers went on. And then parenthood came. At first, my schedule was fine. My bosses were kind enough to allow me some time off whenever I needed to. I also had telecommuting benefits, but it was impossible to work while attending to infants.
