Dear Loved Ones,
Pleasant
Greetings from Sacramento, CA, USA! Much
Thanks GOD for being back to my 2nd home, after Pinas – enjoying the
nice fall weather – cool breeze – and the celebration of many birthdays! Sarah
had hers on Sept. 7, Mama Mary on Sept. 8 with my father’s anniversary too,
several relatives, then my own on Sept. 20 – praying for continuous good health
to continue loving, serving you more Lord!
The month was spent
adjusting to the slower pace of activities, after the hectic, happy vacation in
Pinas – back to our respective regular activities and responsibilities at work,
Church activities, Adoration Chapel commitments, doing Library duties, fulfilling
assignments as Eucharistic Minister; eating out and watching movies, and
workouts / exercising at the clubhouse gym.
On my birthday morning,
Sean surprised me with a wrapped present – complete set of Estee Lauder
cosmetics and perfumery – just what I needed; went to early Mass at St. Mel’s,
attended my Bible class on ‘Prophets’, culminated with dinner at FAT’S, then
movie – simple and memorable celebration! Much Thanks for greetings from
friends and family, likewise for the news from Pinas that Fairview Shipping
gave a bonus to all employees for my birthday and our 19 office anniversary –
sharing of blessings!!!
·
Re-joined my Tuesday Bible study group (after the 8:30 AM mass and
Perpetual Help novena) with the subject on Prophets (24 sessions). Also served
snacks of cake, fruits, tea, together with Rose Johnson;
·
On our Opus Dei group (2nd Saturday of the month), we have a
new younger priest Fr. Mark, replacing Fr. Turlock. More ladies were queueing
up for Confession as I prepared the list with Odette P. A new lady made the talk;
·
As part of home enhancement program, we ordered new set of bed for
Sean’s room. He chose the new ‘state of the art’ gel memory foam complete set
(9” double), from Empire Furniture and had them delivered on Sept. 17 (it’s
like he was the one having his birthday, oh well!). He’s truly having a good
night sleep!
·
Had an appointment with Ate and
Nong Nonie at Oriental Store to give them the $ check share of Panglao lot
inheritance. Instead, I delivered to their home in Roseville, more kindness to
seniors will be more rewarded!
·
Back to the regular reading of books for memory enhancement, and
watching movies for relaxation: Bridget Jones’ Baby – Renee Zellweger reprising
her ‘Bridget’ franchise series, together with Colin Firth and Patrick Dempsey;
Magnificent Seven, starring Denzel Washington and Chris Pratt, with 5 bright
stars; Deepwater Horizon, based on the true story of the BP oil disaster in New
Orleans, featuring Mark Wahlberg, Kate Hudson, and many others;
·
I am continuously communicating with my lawyer in Bohol, Pinas for the
titling of my Valenzuela lot property for its economic development, and
following up with Jen Alvaro of Megaworld for the 8I, El Jardin title.
Much love and Best Regards!!!
