I had a tough, busy and wonderful week.  There were problems, but there were also things that made me smile and are really worth celebrating.  Well I guess, mothers always experience all kinds of emotions in a short period of time.

First, the trip to the hospital. Jeff had these skin rashes last Thursday night, so we immediately went to the doctor to have him checked. The doctor explained this and that and Jeff is to take the anti-allergy tablet she prescribed.

Second, the trip to the movie house. Jeff and I watched Madagascar2 last Saturday.  It’s a funny movie with a heart.  You have to watch it, especially if you have kids ;)

Third, the trip to the hospital . . . . . again. When we woke up yesterday morning to prepare for school, Jeff had the rashes again. So right after he had his breakfast, instead of taking a bath and heading for school, I took him to the doctor. He was injected with I forgot the name of the anti-allergy which made him sleepy and slept the whole morning. And in the afternoon until now, the rashes are gone!

Fourth, the trip to A Nice Place in the Sun. I got a little surprise from Annie who awarded me the I’m a Quiz Whiz badge. This is because I answered Tuesday’s Question which she posts every week.  I suggest you head on there too, people.  You will get to share your funny or hearty thoughts and get to know other bloggers more as well.  It’s so much fun there.  And thanks, Annie! ;)

And fifth, the trip to God’s Best Gift where Rocks gave me this:

Thanks, Rocks.  It’s really nice knowing people like you ;)

I got myself a new ‘Visa’ card!

   Posted by: abelle   in awardable me

Nothing makes a tiring day awesome but good news . . . . .

Today is Saturday - my laundry day.  After finishing off a week’s pile of dirty clothes, I was surprised to get a message from Liza of Moms . . . check n’yo.  She awarded me the BFF Gold Card below.  I often receive calls from different credit card and insurance companies offering me this and that, but I keep on turning them down because I am really not interested.  I already have a credit card with great service and big credit limit.  But who can turn this one cool Visa card down?  No, not me.  Never! ;)

Here are the rules:
1.  Only 5 people are allowed to receive this award.
2.  Four of them have to be followers of your blog.
3.  One has to be new to your blog and lives in another part of the world.
4.  You must link bank to whomever gave you this award.

So who am I awarding this BFF (Blogging Friends Forever) Gold Card?

1. Rocks of God’s Best Gift - For all the good things she does for others, she deserves this one.
2. Carlota of My Web-Blog Designs - because aside from the free ad spot & free blogger layout she provided for me, she never fails to amaze me with her works.
3. Vhiel of Designs by Vhiel - like Carlota, I admire her beautiful works.
4.  MJ of Sagada Philippines - because every time I see his name or his blog, it reminds me of one thing I very seldom do in my life - travel.
5.  Edna of A New Beginning - I hope all is well now, Edna . . . . .

I am a Million Dollar Friend, and so are you!

   Posted by: abelle   in awardable me

I was awarded The Million Dollar Friend Award by Ann of A Nice Place in the Sun. I saw her link on my dashboard yesterday, but was caught up with so many things that I wasn’t able to do a post for it. When I read her post this afternoon, I was flattered and it made me think of the nice people I got to know here in the blogging world. All of them I haven’t met in person, but each one of them have done something for me, made me smile or have touched my life in some way.

“You are never a burden.. don’t ever think that. Friends need each other to pick them up when they are down and I would do nothing less. ”
Dawn Drover~ Twisted Sister


A Million Dollar Friend is the kind of person who instinctively knows what it means to be a good friend; this kind of person makes you look forward to the days ahead and fondly remember the days that have passed. - A Nice Place In The Sun

A million dollar friend is someone who not only pulls you up when you’re down, but also always finds a way to not let you fall. - Abelle, Only in Silence

You Here! Post your nominees and tell the world what a million dollar friend to you means. That’s it! ;)

End Copy - - - - -

Now, I’m passing this award to:

Jasmine of La Vie en France for touching me with her journey to having another baby again. Jasmine, I also considered what you did, but it won’t work for us because my husband works abroad. But still, I salute you for that.

Rocks of God’s Best Gift, because like Jasmine and I, she also is praying for a baby - a first for her.

Carlota of My Web-blog Designs for the blogger template she made for free for my other blog. I will always be grateful, Carlota.

I already made some ‘thank you’ posts before - here, here and here. All the wonderful people I mentioned there are also being awarded.

This award also goes to MJ of Sagada Philippines (thank you also for the recommendation on Entrecard), Chorva of Chorva.net, Edna of A New Beginning, Karen of My Funny Dad, Harry, Vhiel of Can of Thoughts, Mama Flo of Mama Flo’s Place, Ruby of Pinay Mommy Online, Gen of A Message from my Heart and many many others for all your comments; to Rebecca of Freaky Frugalite, Carole of Carole’s Thoughtful Spot and Lady Rose of Diet Pulpit for mentioning Only in Silence in one of your posts; to all my readers and subscribers, please accept this award I am giving especially to all of you; and to all other fellow earthlings who became part of OiS, one way or the other.
