I cant believe my last post was in November last year.  Nevertheless here I am.

I have been missing this small space of mine.  For couple of years this space has served as my creative space and outlet.  Even when I was MIA, I always knew that I will be back.  Before I can say all the blah blah, lets get to the reason why I left this beautiful space of mine.  Its all valid and very interesting.  I PROMISE.  Keep reading.

I got pregnant.

Yes I was with a child.  Now you asking yourself who stops blogging because she is pregnant?.  The answer is “It is me”. So from morning sicknesses to exhaustion, I had to just pause.  Not that I had morning sicknesses 24/7.  I did not feel comfortable sharing my pregnancy journey on the internet.  I know many ladies enjoy sharing their journeys and some people start blogging when they find out they are pregnant, just to share this awesome journey.  I completely understand.  I deeply enjoyed my pregnancy journey.  It was one of the happiest time of my life.

Me and Cullo were fulfilling one of those lifelong dreams.  We were building our dream house.

I also did not feel like sharing this beautiful journey.  These project kept us very busy.  We spent months flipping design books, catalogues, magazines and meeting contractors and subcontractors.  The whole process was remarkably invigorating, humbling, frustrating and finally satisfying. I don’t know how many  show houses we visited.  I found was easier to decide on the number of rooms we want and the general structure of our dream house.  It took us long to decide on the finishes, the type of tiles, the material for cupboards, the type of lightings.  The house is almost done, The pic above is outdated.  We just need to put some final touches.

Those are the two main reasons my blogging was interrupted.

I’m now back at blogging.  I might not post as often as I would like and as I used to before, because often kissing and cuddling my little two nuggets will take priority.  I am aiming at at least writing one post a week.  That’s not too bad, ha!

When I was pregnant, huge and bored I used to come to my site and browse though the posts.  The smile on my face though when I look at some of the pictures and think about the day the picture was taken made me want to document more about our life and my thoughts.

I realised that I was more committed and disciplined in everything I was doing and my thoughts were very clear. Everywhere I was going, I was observant.  I was getting more out of life.

I am an early riser and writing about my morning activities (running, watching sunset, morning walk at the beach) made me realise how much those activities made me happy.  I now know that when life gives me lemons I can easily make lemonade after a walk at the beach or a quick run or watching the sunset.

I AM HAPPY TO BE BACK.
