I am a stay at home mom with a more than full-time career. I have a a two-year-old without a baby sitter.

And as such, I barely have time for myself, let alone time to do the housework. Well, I do them, but not routinely, only when it is badly needed.

The things that I am required to do would be to clean the toilet and bathroom, mop the floor, clean the surfaces, and wash pretty much everything here and there. And well, I do not do the laundry and ironing–all I need to do is to put the clothes inside our cabinet, but I could not even do it!

Darn, I sometimes thing that I would rather be doing them. However, I have to prioritize. I need to work and earn a living so that’s why I don’t mind it when things seem topsy turvy. However, there will really be a point in time that I could not take it anymore and so I will get up and do them. Then I would feel better again–at least for a few days.

It can get pretty dusty here in the room that the best thing to do is to wipe surfaces at least every other day. Oh well…I try…

Musical Hangout

Every thing is a learning opportunity for Dindin. Last time, we were malling at SM and we passed by the bridge way where there was a Casio shop selling keyboards.

There was a unit there with keys that light up. It was actually for beginners so that you can just follow the light and learn to play a song. Dindin could barely reach up the keyboard but she tried and looked like a pro player of a casio keyboard! Too bad the place was small so I did not have space to maneuver and take a nice photo of her.

Dindin is really quite musical. She seems to like percussion instruments. But lately, she developed a liking for the guitar and keyboard. We will never really know unless we send her to get some training. We will see.

Now a mother of six children (either biological or adopted), it is reported that actress Angelina Jolie is pregnant again.

Living together with baby-Daddy Brad Pitt, the report said that Jolie is already 3 months pregnant but is barely showing. She did not make an official announcement yet but she has already told a select number of people. And apparently, some of the “select” people that she confided in has already talked to the media.

Anyway, just last week, Jolie was seen at the 2012 Golden Globe Awards wearing a cream asymmetrical Atelier Versace gown and she nowhere looked pregnant. Maybe she is just really thin.

I just think she is so cool so be able to handle so many kids. She is also reportedly having difficulty with all the adjustments that her body is experiencing, but she is enjoying being pregnant. Wow!

This is going to be the seventh child in the Jolie-Pitt brood.
