Opsss... I forgot..

I've been running after writing tasks lately but then I completely forgot that I have some tasks that have been pending and are already past its due date. It's a good thing though that the company wrote and reminded me of my pending tasks. Thank God that they haven't cancelled my assignments but instead gave me another 2 days to submit. Thank God for the great favor. I hope that they will still give me writing assignments after this blunder of mine.

Oh, I'm so forgetful these days.. I already bought an organizer but I think I've only written my name on it and nothing else. I better get organized or else be forgetting a lot more things.

Of Passbooks and Taxes

My FICCO passbook is one of the many things that has been lost in the flood. I still haven't done my transaction for this month and I'm quite hesitant to do it this week because I'm sure there will be some paperwork to be done for my passbook to be replaced like get an 'affidavit of loss' from the lawyer and etc. I hope that I will really spare some time to go to their office next week as we are now quite free because we already have someone to help us at home and at the same time take care of the kids while we are gone.

It's good that I was also able to retrieve my SS Id with my number on it. If not, then I'll have to file a report of loss and etc to our Social Security office. It's not quite easy if you lose some things. I wish there will be some firms who can help us do these paperworks and stuff just like there are firms who can make strategy for international taxes.

Flood of Blessings

It's almost a month now since the 'great' flood that we have experienced. We are still staying in our cousin's house but hopefully we could go back to our house next week as the repairs will be finished by then.

The 3rd of January was indeed a shakening experience for us. It is a day that we will never forget. But, just as how our house got flooded with the 2 meters river water, God's blessings after that was also flooding in our lives. We have seen God's love and care through the people who have helped us in many ways. We have also been blessed materially and financially.

Through these blessings, we were able to replace the things that we have lost with NEw things; new shoes, clothes, bags and etc. We were able to clean and repair the houses ( my moms house, and two sisters' houses). Not only that, but a bit of house improvement was also done in my two sisters' houses. Once we are all settled in our home, we are also planning to have a thanksgiving with all our neighbors ( especially those who have also been affected by the flood) and at the same time give them some gifts too. God has indeed blessed us and that is to be a blessing to everyone.

God is indeed faithful in our lives. We have seen God's miracles of provision and meeting our every need. Glory to God!
