November

It has been almost 6 months. I didn't think I will be writing again. Six months is a long time. A lot happened since May. The most important of which are:

1. I am back working for HQ!
2. I went to Virginia and New York to meet the new teachers with Roly!
3. I attended a mini-reunion with my high school classmates at Laguna Niguel!
4. I got Los Angeles USD!

The exclamation point at the end of each sentence implies how each event made a huge, significant mark in my golden life. And I guess I will be writing more about each in future posts.

Monica just had her birthday. She is now 23. When she invited me to go out to window shop with her, I knew it was going to be an uneventful day for her. I immediately agreed to keep her company - for most of the day. I treated her to coffee and cheesecake (!!!) at B&N. I know she loved that. She asked her dad to cook monggo for her :) and Roly obliged. I wish I had more to give to her. She is such a sweet child, she works and studies hard. If I could only wrap the moon and the stars for her, give her someone who could love her and whom she could love with uninhibited passion :) I remember asking EQ if there is someone good enough for our daughters. And she said she found one for hers! I pray mine will find someone soon. I feel she is missing out on loving and being loved. Seems I already wrote this in my previous posts. I must remember what my Mama used to say - "Be careful what you wish for!" :)
