Any woman who has gone through infertility would understand how painful it is – both emotionally and physically and also strenuous on one’s pocket.

Do you remember the very first time you said “ Honey, I am pregnant” to your hubby when the pregnancy test kit showed a double line? I still remember that particular day vividly. We were at the fertility clinic and the urine test results showed a positive. Hubby and I had gone through years of…

Trusting My Guts Feelings
Posted on
My guts feelings have been right most times. Even though I had gotten a verbal confirmation from this maid agency that supplies temp maids that he can provide me with a temp live-in maid for one month starting this Sunday, somehow, I just had a feeling that the maid will never arrive.

One of the highlights at the breakfast buffet at the Sheraton Imperial Hotel coffee house was the range of honey available for the scrumptious waffles.
