Feeling Sleepy

I believe I have not yet fully recovered my lack of sleep for three consecutive nights because there was no water.  I'm used to taking bath before going to bed so I have to wait until water gets back because we have no stored water in the pail or whatever container we have since we have not prepared with that water interruption..

I am able to sleep only during midnight or even past midnight. Today, I still feel very sleepy and I lack the energy to work on my tasks that's supposed to be done.  I need my vitality back:).  Anyways, have a great day friends:).

Alarmed by Keona's frequent poop

Yesterday while at work, I got a call from home that Keona had already poop 4 times. Grandma told me to just fetch them at the mall when I got out at work for they brought Keona with them. When we were on our way home, Keona poop again and was followed by another 2 poops when we were at home with approximately 1 hour gap in between.I was alarmed because it became very frequent and it's wet. I called up Keona's pediatrician for advice and he told me that the best thing to do is to have a stool exam the soonest that we can. We need also to keep her hydrated so we have to frequently let her drink water and have her take a pediatric hydride.

We decided to wait for another poop and bring it to the laboratory for examination then we'll just buy pedialite on our way to the hospital. 1 hour has passed but there's no poop. Two hours passed and still no poop came out so we decided to just go to bed for I was already very sleepy.

Until in the morning, there's no poop, so perhaps it was just viral thing or maybe due to the many raisins she ate the other night. She likes to eat a raisin a lot that she consumed quite plenty the other night.

Advent recollection for me and hubby

Advent is a time when we Catholics prepare for the coming of Jesus in Christmas. As I have mentioned in my previous post, me and hubby attended a recollection. It is intended for evaluating ourselves in a spiritual manner. As Socrates have said, "an unexamined life is not worth living". So that recollection is like examining ourselves. It's also a good time for us to bond spiritually.

A lot of things we have learned from our facilitator Fr. Jose Mari Esquadro:

• we should let go of our past hurts and we should not allow it to hamper us from growing.
• we can be likened to a well. in the surface is a very clean water but beneath the water, there's dirt and mud in it. but if we go beyond the water, there is that spring which gives life to the well. as a person, we should not dwell on our woundedness.
• we can be likened to a mustard seed. the question is..have far have we grown? do we bear fruits?
