I’m tired of ordering takeout. The other night we had pizza from Domino’s and I was so unhappy with it. I needed to eat real food.

Since I knew my new refrigerator would arrive this afternoon, I bought some greens that would last us until tomorrow. Then I will do a big grocery shopping tomorrow evening after work… If I finish early. 🥴

Last Friday I followed up my requests for meetings with people in Singapore and booked my hotel and plane ticket. Because I was so exhausted, I didn’t realize I typed my maiden name on my ticket instead of my legal married name which I haven’t used in 8 years. Now I had to jump through hoops to change it to my legal married name that matches my passport. Philippine Airlines is charging me USD 25 for that. 🤦🏻‍♀️

Good thing I mentioned this to one of my bffs, who was my travel partner to HCMC two weeks ago. She told me the Department of Foreign Affairs is allowing married women to change their passport name to their maiden name even without annulment. 🎉❤️

This is wonderful. However, I have to fix my birth certificate first because of a huge error my father made when he registered me. 🤦🏻‍♀️ This complication sprang up when the National Statistics Office was consolidating and digitizing records to become Philippine Statistics Authority and the agency flagged this to me. Long story short, I need to go to the Manila City Hall to fix this and I need a week off to do this because this entails a lot of back and forth between offices.

I will do this after my Kuala Lumpur trip in June.
