So, my twitter page and Facebook timeline was flooded with different emotions, from shock to disappointment due to the loss of PacMan to Marquez. I must admit, I am not a boxing fan but I felt weak when I saw a photo of Pacquiao knocked out, lying face down. I sure hope he’s OK.

Ever since I moved here in Dubai, I never had a “proper” Christmas celebration. I don’t know. I guess it’s because I always felt that this is not my home. I barely hear Christmas songs played on the radio. (or maybe I’m not tuned in long enough?) This year, I want a change. I want to decorate the apartment.
Last year I was back in the Philippines and once again I was able to celebrate Christmas like we used to. I put up the tree, decorated the house, cooked food and entertained kids. LOTS of kids. I had so much fun and I want Blake to experience the same.
So this year, I am turning to Mr. Google and Ms. Pinterest for some inspiration.
Hey there! I’m a mom of two who loves to crochet. Balancing work and motherhood is crazy, but I handle it with love and humor. With my eldest entering her tween years, the chaos just got a whole lot more interesting!
I’m fueled by coffee and dream of working from home. When I need to chill, I turn to my trusty essential oils. They’re my secret weapon for staying sane in the madness.
Join me for mom life, crochet, and my journey to work from home and retire before life passes me by.

Thanks Liz! Will post pics of course, but it won’t be as beautiful as your photos! 🙂
Well at least you’re moving on. I’m so jealous!!

Awww. This is good to hear. Please post pics once you’re done decorating.
No Christmas for us this year. 🙁 We’ll be busy packing and unpacking. Oh well… a nomad’s life.
