What this blog is about

April 10, 2010 by Sheila | A B & Me 5 Comments

I created this blog for two reasons:

1 – I am getting reconnected with the old me.
I used to be very conscious with the way I look. I like painting my nails, experimenting with make up and doing my hair. Somehow, I lost that part of me. Most of the time I’m just too busy or too tired to do anything else.

I always say, this place makes me fugly! Dry skin, wrinkly face, thinning hair. Ugh! Don’t get me started with the seasonal bouts of dandruff and chicken skin!  (Seriously, its the weather! We only have two seasons here, HOT and HOTTER!)

I’m not a slob, ok? I like pampering myself….scratch that, I LOVE PAMPERING MYSELF. It’s just that I do not have time. I can’t do it regularly. And my wallet would surely complain.


2 – I love blogging. Whether just blog hopping or writing my own

I love to blog. I love to read blogs. I love to pamper myself. So I now focus my attention on beauty blogs. This is my friend’s fault. She started it! And I followed. 

Everything is DIY in this blog unless specified. I am staying pretty for much much less!

I also joined a blog carnival. What is a blog carnival, you ask?

A blog carnival consists of blog post links from different bloggers. The links will consist of a particular topic scheduled for that week. From time to time and at different intervals, one of these bloggers will act as “host” of all those blog post links, thus the term “carnival“.

This is a great way to find bloggers with similar interests, find new friends and most importantly put your own blog out there! Let other bloggers find you. This is a good way to share your own experiences, tips, join contests and even win special prizes!

So this is my blog. I hope you like it and learn something from it. If there is anything you want me to blog about, please leave me a message. And don’t forget to visit our Blog Carnival. It’s open for everyone! Join us.

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.

Hello!

Hey there!
We’re a Filipino family of four figuring things out in California after living in Dubai for years. This space is part blog, part memory box—where we share life lately, parenting wins and fails, travels, and everything in between.

Sometimes it’s deep, sometimes it’s funny, but it’s always honest. Thanks for hanging out with us!

I’ve been thinking a lot about the whole “YOLO I’ve been thinking a lot about the whole “YOLO” mindset. It sounds fun — and sometimes it IS harmless. But when we let it guide our decisions without pause… it can turn into a habit of acting first, thinking later. 

This post is just something I made to process that idea. What if we shifted from the YOU ONLY LIVE ONCE to YOU ONLY DIE ONCE? 

It’s not being a buzzkill. It’s about modeling self-control, delayed gratification, and faith in action—even when it’s not popular. 

What do you think: YOLO or YODO?

Ps. I shared more of the story behind this thought over on @threads if you’re curious (same handle!)

You’ve been my constant for 20+ years—through chaos, kids, and late-night cravings. You serve, you provide, you love us like crazy. We’re so lucky! 

You’re really a hard habit to break.
