Introducing a New Self :-)

Thanks to Metro Joe for inspiring me to tap again this blogger account of mine. By the way, stumbled upon your blog while searching for BPI mutual funds. Congrats on your blog and hope you can update often.heheh

As of this time, am being pissed off with smart bro's internet connection. Imagine the whole day yesterday, all pages I tried to open keeps on downloading forever.

What pissed me off more was that I really can't open even a single file from gmail. So frustrating. That's why I opted to open notepad and start opening up again to the world through this blog.

Anyway, I am Hazel, 27, an ordinary citizen from a province in Northern Mindanao, a wife to a loving husband, and a mother to my one and only 3 year old Niña Razelle.

I am a lupus patient specifically SLE, just diagnosed last August 2013, in case someone with same case stumbles on this blog. Hope to meet a fellow someday whom I can talk to about this condition of mine. Will have separate post for this soon. For now, I'm having my prescribed meds in a daily basis containing Plaquenil (1s a day), Prednisone (15 mg dosage), and a daily dose of Caltrate and Iberet Folic to fight against the adverse effects usually caused by the other 2 meds.

Here is what my AM meds like, taken every after breakfast:

Plaquenil, Pred 10, Iberet Folic

And here is my PM meds, taken right after dinner:

 Pred 5, Caltrate

I used to take plaquenil for twice a day and 20 mg dosage for prednisone but thank God, doc reduced it just last month.

As for my hobbies and lifestyle, I just go around my daily sched at home babysitting my 3 year old baby and facebooking from time to time,lol! My hubby just preferred for me to stay at home to personally look over our baby because of my condition and because, he's also working abroad so might as well grab the opportunity to be with our baby while recovering from my so-called lupus.

Goodbye for now and I'm really hoping and praying that I get to update this blog more often. Thank you so much for reading.

updates..just about anything..Royal Wedding..

I really envy those people who really take time to blog. Writing can be fun but can really be draining sometimes especially when you're not used to it, like me. Just thought of updating this one because I miss this blog and I just feel like it. Got the time because my li'l one is already asleep, thank goodness. :) So far, my life as a full-time mom is enjoyable and rewarding. Indeed, a li'l smile from your li'l one can really make up all your problems and negative thoughts. Seeing Niña's smile can really make my day. Especially now that she's in her 7 months, I'm so proud that she can already do "commando crawl"..hehe..here's a pic of my pretty baby..

I'm so proud of her. Motherhood is not that hard at all as described by many. Though you still got a handful of things to learn, your instinct will always be beside you. I'm just so thankful that I have great parents-in-law, a loving husband, and a great family of course.

Hmm..let's save all that motherly posts soon.

Talking about the Royal Wedding, I just want to share how I admired Kate Middleton's beauty so much. Honestly, I just knew about her last month, few days before their wedding. So poor of me. I'm not as hyped about the royal wedding as the others but still, felt excited about it since it's just this time around that I get to appreciate and understand things about the Royal Family. :) I can't agree more to the news that says Kate has been listed as one of the Best Dressed Women nowadays because indeed, she is. Another thing I admire about her is her love for sports and being so confident which makes her really deserving to be a princess. I just hope that Prince William and Princess Katherine will stay in love the way they are right now. :) Long live the newlyweds!
