MMT #14 - Mom-ME Time, 28 August 2011

My me-time this week was watching My Binondo Girl. This new television series of ABS-CBN is about a Filipina-Chinese named Jade, played by actress Kim Chiu, who pretends to be a boy for her Chinese father to accept her.

The primary setting of the television series is in Binondo, Philippines and some scenes are shot in Hongkong, China. Binondo in Manila, Philippines is the oldest Chinatown in the world, established in 1594, and is primarily populated by ethnic Chinese families.

Although I didn’t stood-up-clap-while-shouting-bravo yet, I enjoyed it because I get to unwind after a long day mommy time.

How was your me-time this week?

How was your weekend ladies? Mine was same as the other weekends I always have.

Moving on to today. I exercised for a few minutes, yes a few minutes - I don’t want to too much strain on my uhm…muscles first day of workout, don’t want muscle pains later, so 30 minutes is good enough for today.

Belly dance, some leg lifts and dumbbell lifts for the biceps and triceps.

It worked for me before, especially the belly dance videos of Neena and Veena, so hopefully it won’t fail me this time. If you want to try it out, just look for their videos on YouTube.

I read from sports websites that one can get the most benefit from an exercise routine for two weeks at the most. I therefore try to change my exercise routine every two weeks.

Happy Sunday everyone!

I had a very stressful weekend. Why? I had to help my son review for his quarterly exams scheduled this coming Tuesday to Friday. But before the “stressful” weekend, I had my alone time Friday afternoon while my son was with his Chinese tutor.

My ME-time was doing a week’s pile of laundry. My companion while doing the laundry - my IPod shuffle. I bought this IPod shuffle with the purpose of distracting myself from getting tired while running. No, not during a fun run - that’s dangerous. Running in a track oval. I haven’t been running lately but it’s been put to good use by distracting me from getting mad while scrubbing RJ’s dirty school uniform.

Now I enjoy doing the laundry because of my Ipod shuffle. I now consider laundry day as a fun way to have my ME-time.

Yesterday, I was able to have a few minutes of ME time.

We went to Shangrila Mall with the hope of finding soccer shoes for RJ. The shoes that he tried for the past few weeks were either too small or too big for him. When we arrived there, RJ joined a Thermos cooking event so I was able to have my alone time shopping.

I was able to find comfortable shoes for me and a few good books for RJ. But we were not able to find spikes for him. We have to keep on looking. In another sports store, in another mall, perhaps we’ll be able to find one already.

Happy Sunday everyone!

My official ME time, from the previous week, was mall time. I went to the mall last Friday while my son RJ was still in school. I reluctantly went to the mall, I was supposed to sleep so yes I was reluctant to go, but I badly need a new camera. I was planning to buy a red Canon DSLR camera but ended up buying a pink Canon IXUS 1000 HS.

I decided to buy it instead of the planned DSLR because it was on sale. Instead of paying the regular price of Php 24,000, I was able to buy it for only Php 14,000! This cheapskate mom had a wonderful ME time because of that.

Did you also have a wonderful Me time? I hope you also did. Share it here, just click the linky below.

I was able to have my Mom-ME time everyday last week. Yes, everyday! Good for me? Well, I'm sure if you're a SAHM or WAHM, you most often than not have this ME time also. As soon as the school bus picks up RJ, I turn on the television and watch the local morning news of ABS-CBN while eating breakfast. I also watch other local channel's morning show while the ABS-CBN news show is on commercial break.

A good combination to start the day, right? Breakfast they say is the most important meal of the day. Although I'm not a big breakfast eater, I try to eat a portion good enough to make me full until lunch time.

I get ideas on what to blog about from the morning show. But I'm appealing to the news team to please, please give more importance to good quality news instead of reporting  gruesome, unimportant news that even give wrong ideas to uneducated people. Report what happened but don't give the details of how the bad deed was done.

I might have frowned a bit when I watched those bad news, but overall my ME time was superb! So, how was your ME time?

How was your weekend mommies? Mine was very tiring. 

But I was able to have a ME-time before my "tiring weekend". I was channel surfing friday night, while waiting for RJ to finish his friday-night-PSP-marathon, when I saw Sarah Jessica Parker's face on the television screen. And then I saw Hugh Grant next. I never knew they had a movie together. 

So, how was your ME-time? Share your stories here.

How was your weekend mommies? Mine was good but I was worried the past few days because of the storm Falcon. Although Mr. Sun gave a small glimpse of himself, I'm glad that the heavy rain has stopped.

I just got back from doing my weekly grocery shopping. Before that we, me, my son, nephew and sisters, went to church to hear mass. Then the kids enjoyed an hour playing in Timezone. They went home after that and I went to the grocery store.

I was planning on having a foot spa but I will just do that next weekend. An hour, in the grocery store, of buying the things that we need for the week was my ME-time. Some of you might not consider doing your mommy chores your ME-time, but everytime I am by myself is already a ME-time for me.

I was able to relax my mind and be stress-free for an hour,so that's an awesome ME-time for me already.

What about you, how was your ME-time?

I'll be having my ME time at exactly 4:30PM this afternoon. Although my son and my sisters will go with me, I'm very sure that I'll enjoy my ME-time inside the cinema. My sister already bought our tickets for the Green Lantern movie.
