Balancing Work, Life, Marriage, Parenting and Sanity.
Change of plans. How many times has this happened to you? As for me, I don’t recall anymore! Many of our plans changed before for some reason. Lately, another major family plan has been changed. Dane is going home…For good! ♥
If you are a friend from Facebook, you may have seen my post about Dane leaving again to go back to Saudi Arabia and work. He was on vacation for 42 days and it was one of the happiest days of my life. But just as things in this have to end, so was his …
I’ve used this photo several times on this blog already. This was Dane two years ago today. It was the day he turned his back on us and leave to fly for KSA. The day when all Nate did was run around the place. At 1 year and 4 months, he didn’t understand what was …
Dane and I’s video call yesterday was filled with tears (at least on my part) and hard decision making that we needed to do. No, he didn’t do anything wrong, lol. We were discussing (again) whether he’d return to KSA or not. This 2-year contract was the most challenging years we had in our marriage …

Last week, Dane told me he was not feeling well. He said his throat hurts badly. I told him to gargle warm water with salt and asked him to try to buy Bactidol if possible. He still had to go to work, of course! While at work, he said he had a fever and was …
Sharing the song that has been my constant reminder every time I miss my husband. God willing, in five month’s time, Dane will finally be home from Riyadh, KSA. Who would’ve thought it’s almost two years already since we said our goodbyes at the airport? Many say that it was too fast. For those who …
Today marks Dane’s 1st year as an OFW. If you are to ask me how I feel about it, I’ll say that I feel proud that we made it this far – well, I knew we’d get through this together, and even longer, but of course, we don’t know what lies ahead. If I were …
I have mentioned this once before: Dane went abroad to work for 2 straight years. When I thought about it before, I’d feel really sad and lonely. But now, I’m able to start adjusting and not think about it that much. Last Sunday, September 27th, Dane left for Riyadh, KSA at around 12nn. It was …
