Upside Down, Happy and all around

Remembering

It's been a very very (x10 more) busy year for me and I'm still trying to keep up with all the activities I have.

I'm also very very (x100 or more) that God has given me and my loved ones so much blessings. Despite certain challenges, He always tends to give us hope and ensure that we are all taken cared of. Praise God!

I remember making a list of so many activities for oOhwables and all my projects that were supposed to commence this year. I can't say "unfortunately" because if I had pushed through with everything, most of it would have been half-baked. For sure, by next year, with my hubby giving full support and attention to the biz (God works in mysterious ways! I have been praying that He give me extra hands!), we are looking forward to finally launching GoOhwables and other projects we've been looking to do.

BELIEVE!

I stumbled upon a blog entry I made the previous year, it was a list of things, my WISH LIST ACTUALLY and I was really very surprised!

Here's the link (my personal site):

and another one I posted here:

WHAT CAME TRUE THIS YEAR:

Laptop (not really a Mac but Dad gave me one and Im really happy! :)
DSLR from my Mom
Rainboots (Wellingtons from my hubby)
M Baretto Bag (Thanks for the discount when I bought it Sandy! hehe)
Watch (I didnt get a Techno because there were a lot of fakes around but my hubby surprised me with a nice Kenneth Cole)
Havaianas (got more than 2 pairs as gifts)
New Sofa (we moved and got a very comfy 3 seater that Yanyan loves)
All of Yan-yan's toys were given to her in several occasions and even more than we expected

Others say the SECRET CONCEPT does work, I believe that when it's due you, it really just comes to you with a little help from the big Guy up there. :) Materialistic? I guess if you don't really need it, then its really not worth it. I actually forgot about the list I made hence the surprise of realizing the concept that "things will really just fall into place".

One SUPER BIG WISH me and my hubby had is to be able to find a place where we can lease and then own. I believe we've just stumbled into it the other day. Hopefully all things go well and we can look forward to owning our very own place within the next 2 to 3 years. We're scheduled to move-in January YEY! :)

Curiously, I'm creating another wish list this year. As they say, "LIBRE ANG MANGARAP!".

I'm in the "HOMING" mood so therefore, most of my wish list comprises of items to decorate our new home. :)

1. Home Furniture - I found this cool ebay seller. I'm so into Filipino designs for both fashion and interiors so I'm looking forward to the things they are selling:


ebay seller: abacafurn08

Abaca bench with storage pulls (cushions included)


4 Drawer Buri Stand



Abaca Accent Bench



2. Photo studio in a box from dponline

3. Super Comfy Flat or Semi-flat mid length boots

4. Basic Digital Multi-function camcorder and still camera

5. 2 to 3 new comforter sets. :)

6. Overlock Machine (4 thread)

7. LCD TV for the room

8. For the trip to Bangkok with mom to push through next year

9. A Car! (hehe)

10. A La Germania stove with oven (so I can start baking again)

I wonder what will turn up next year? :)
