What in the world is going on?

Greetings my friends,

I hope everyone's day is going great. Today, I want to talk to you about what's happening with me and in my life. So, if you are not the kind of person who is interested in reading about what others have to say about themselves or their lives, stick around (see what I did there) ;P. And if you are, then read on...

First of all, let me start about talking about the party we are planning for our daughter. You might remember that a month ago, which was basically when I disappeared, I wrote this post about my plans for this year and what happened last year.

Her birthday is in December, but unfortunately we are postponing it again like last year. There are reasons and one of them is budget. Remember, I mentioned in the last post something like we want this year's party to be the best it could be? That is what exactly we are trying to do. I don't want to throw a crappy party again, just because we currently are on a tight budget. So we thought that if we want to throw her party on her birthday (which makes SENSE!), that's how it will be! CRAPPY! And if we wait, it will be like how we have thought and planned! The best party it could be!

However, I do have a lot of ideas and plans, at hand, ready to go! I would love to share them with you if you like.

Next, I want to talk about what's going on in the world. This may be a very sensitive topic to some people, so I'll try to be careful with my words. It is a sensitive topic for me to write as well, and I'm looking for words to talk about it.

The thing is that the things that are happening around the world are saddening me and every time I see something bad happens to anyone, I feel so sad. I, currently, feel like there's just too much negativity going on right now. And somewhere this negativity is impacting me too. I am a very positive person, I will always think about and look at the positive side of everything. I rarely take things in a negative way, but some issues are depressing to see for me. I think that's what was going on with me and kinda still is. I think that's what stopped me to write, but I'll try my best to give my best.

On the positive side, this negativity has encouraged me to know more. I feel like I know more about things now, as compared to I ever did before. I know more about what's going on around me, I know how to handle situations better, I can stand up for myself and my fellows, etc.

Well, that's all I can say without going too much into details and hurting my or someone else's feelings. I know I was too vague and you had no idea what I was talking about, but now I feel light. I feel a burden has been lifted from my chest and I'm back to normal.

Let me know if you'd like me to talk about it in details, but be cautious because it is a extremely sesitive topic!!! I really don't want to say something which would hurt anyone's feelings. Talk to you guys later.

Last but not least,

Birthday party planning and bloopers from last year...

Good day beautiful people of this beautiful world,

I hope everyone's day is going well; sending you all the wellness, if for any reason it is not.

You may be wondering why haven't I posted in a while. To be honest, I was planning for my daughter's birthday and trying to decorate my apartment (on a budget).

Hold on, before you think my daughter's birthday might be right around the corner, it actually isn't.

It is in December. I know it is 2 months away and that seems like I'm going ahead of time. I actually don't think so, because I really want to be prepared for this year.

Now, what do I mean by 'be prepared for this year'?

Well...you see, I am the kind of person who does everything at the last moment (which I hate and try not to, but somehow end up doing it anyway). So, that's exactly what happened last year!

Since it's my beautiful daughter's second birthday, her first ever birthday was last year (OBVIOUSLY!). First birthdays are special, or maybe they are not. For the family it is, but for the child, it doesn't really matter until like 3rd or 4th birthday. So, it was supposed to be the best birthday it could be, but it was a disaster!

Yes, it was!

We hadn't planned, we didn't know what we were doing. We were just like huh?

In addition, we had planned 1 month later. So let's say her actual birthday is December 20th, we planned for Jan 20th, thinking that if we have more time, we'll do it better.

But a year later, and after some days had passed, we realized it was a horrible 1st BIRTHDAY party anyone could ever throw!

I feel so bad for the families that had to attend! No, seriously I do! I had no party food, no games, no personalized cake, no theme, basically it was just blah!

The food I had was like actual meal, children were playing on their tabs/ps/electronics that they had brought with themselves (I guess they had a feeling :D).

This year, I want to make up for last year! And we are scared that what if no one comes this year? What if they got too scared last year, that they never would want to come to any party at my place? We will be heart broken!

But I have faith and I know people will come; despite what they experienced last year! :D They know that:

At least, I hope they do! :D

Stay tuned to find out what I have planned for this year's party and the home decor I was talking about. Talk to you soon.

STAY STRONG!
