Me on the phone: What happened to the electrician? Yes, there’s still a lot of pending jobs at the basement section. I see, fever, for one week now? Ok thanks. I guess I have to wait ‘til next week.

Still 2 weeks ago…

(talking to the Mason and Helper) Where’s Manong? I thought we agreed that he will be here by now to finish the fence.

Mason and Helper: He and his helpers can’t come today because they have a fever, even the painter and the tile installer.

Me: I see.

Last week…

A lot of people in the office got sick…Eye Sore, Pneumonia, Head ache, tooth ache and again …Fever!

Present week

Last Monday I was in the doctor’s office with my whole family, both my daughter and my son is suffering for whooping cough and again FEVER!

Nowadays I am into “looking for furniture” either it's brand new or second hand for our new house. I would like to give certain degree of credits on the sites that I commonly visit to check out new selling/offering products posted by certain individuals or company. Although I've been visiting a lot of website lately, I'll just emphasize the top three, I may say.

Basically it caters for Cebuanos. It’s so simple to register, the site has established intensive classifications for classifieds ads, there’s no fancy stuff (i.e. flashy headings) I can say that this site is straight to the point, one will never be lost, it’s easy to browse to the items/product that you are looking for.

                           *I sold my car thru classifiedads  last February.Thank you very much.

  Ayosdito.ph (ok here), is also a free online classified ads which provides service mainly to all over  Philippines. They explains everything in three words, EASY SIMPLE AND FREE. It plunged to the net last March 2009. I first learned this through Cebuclassifieds.com, they were advertising with their noticeable logo.

It’s so easy to navigate, they use Philippines’ map strategically for browsing the ads. You don’t have to undergo hassles in registering; registration is essentially included on post an ad process. You can post right away, but one thing I notices when I posted my ad it’s a No No to include web site address on posting.

The ff. message will appear after you are done with posting an ad;

Buy / Sell / Trade / Classifieds – ISTORYA.NET- Is within the website forum of ISTORYA.NET, one of the biggest online community of Cebu that I’ve known. Unlike cebuclassifieds and ayosdito.ph buy and sell in istorya.net sets rules before posting/starting a thread. I usually visits this site due to practically it is also one of the easiest ground where the buyer and  seller meet.

I am currently upgrading my online shop site...

 Yum yum yum

The other day we went to Manna Sutukil (sutukil is a Cebuano term stands for sugba (fish cook in charcoal) , tuwa(shells or fish cook in boiling water with tomatoes, onions and seasonings , kilaw (fresh fish, squid or shrimp added with vinegar seasonings, onions, tomatoes, ginger).

I have no idea where did they get the name of their restaurant, I am thinking that maybe they get it from the word Manna or Mana in the Bible, the food that was eaten by the Israelites during their journey in the desert.

Anyway, if it’s your first time to go there, expect that there are wide varieties of sea foods that you can choose. The prices are usually in per kilo, and that includes the way you want it to be cook,for example crabs are P280.00/kilo and you may request it to be steamed. For shrimps you may choose to cook it with garlic or hot chili sauce. Shells are usually cook for Tuwa or cook dry with butter. They also offer different kind of shakes (mango, pineapple) for P65.00, or you may opt for fresh buko juice.

We occupied the tables on the second floor, though they have also air conditioned room in the first floor, we still go for the fresh air,  Manna is by the way located near the sea. The restaurant is near the Lapu-lapu shrine and it was the same area where Magellan and Lapu-lapu fought dtd April 1521.

 Manna Sutukil, Mactan,  Lapu-lapu City, Cebu

Lunch out? No worries, in Cordova Cebu you can immediatley taste the freshest sea foods anytime.

Planning for Sunday get together?     Green Lagoon Resort  in Compostela Cebu might be the perfect place for your family. 

 Php500.00 per cottage.

This is one of the place that we visit if we are too tired of malling or going out on a beach in weekend, here we can have family picnic running with my daughter and playing with my son because of the wide open space picnic ground that they have.

Bye Bob I will miss you!

I went to one of my favorite supermarket last night to buy supplies for my son and daughter. I was in a hurry, I had only one hour to do it because I still have to report to the office afterwards. I noticed the rearrangement they made on their displayed products. It has been months as I remembered when they started their store renovations. It used to be so easy to pick up everything I needed when I have my time in shopping, but last night I was totally annoyed when I kept on back and forth looking for the items that I need for I was no longer familiar with the arrangement that they have. They changed everything from the kitchen utensils, babies stuff, can goods, chilled or frozen goods, toiletries, to holiday’s promo packs.

I just told myself that changes is constant in life,  and it will come to a stage that it is very difficult sometimes to welcome it and accept it. Sometimes it will take a while to adjust and be comfortable about it. There will be rough roads in accepting changes, but along the way I learned to receive unwelcome emotions. There will be struggles, there will be a tendency to dwell in the past denying oneself and hardly move on.
