Hiatus

It has been four or five days since I last posted an entry. I haven't been busy, I have just been lounging around in the house, and just not feeling that there is anything significant or noteworthy that I can write about.



Well, except perhaps that my mom just turned 55. And there I was, hoping and wishing that at 55, my life would just be all right as it is with my mom. Then, there was Father's Day, and my dad clamoring for attention, as he is wont to do every year. And I remembering thinking, are we so self-absorbed the rest of the year that my dad has to resort to tactics in order to get our attention? What the heck happened to children trying to gain their parents attention? The tide has turned and it's now the opposite. And I feel a little guilty of not paying attention to my parents especially now that they are getting older...well, just a little. I'm a middle child and there's too much baggage here, and it's really ironic that the black sheep of the family -- me--- will be the only one left with the parents. Hmmm, some say it's only fitting.



Since I cannot write about me doing nothing but sleeping, eating and reading, I have to note how great the feeling is selling my mom's goodies again. Although I feel a little guilty because it's Liza who's selling it, I sold the idea to Liza. He He. Pushy me. It still feels good to hear from Liza the positive reviews and comments from the buyers.



I guess my hiatus has some worthy life notes as well. Come to think of it, we'll just have to look for that little extra in our ordinary lives.
