It’s the start of the “ber” months and that means Filipinos are starting to decorate for the Christmas season.

And I’m not yet ready.

I mean, not only financially, but also for things that I need to fulfill, meet, or just do.

I haven’t been to the beach!!!

We cancelled the family trip to Singapore next month due to the worsening condition of my other nephew so I’m racking my brain searching for alternatives. The original plan was to go to Singapore for a long weekend with my kids, my mom, and my sisters and nephew and I will stay behind for work after they fly home. But circumstances have changed—good thing I haven’t registered for the conference that I was targeting and haven’t booked anything yet.

I haven’t done anything with my life so far…ah well I did quit my post as manager. That’s it. I haven’t gone on a solo leisure travel since 2018.

Ah but I did buy a car without in-house financing or bank loans so that took out a huge chunk of my savings… 🤔 No wonder I feel poor these days—I’m trying to build up my bank accounts that I emptied last July so I don’t have any frivolous purchases recently.
