1. Memo ::  uh-oh!
2. Copy ::  paste
3. Office ::  supplies
4. Stapler ::  lost again
5. Paycheck ::  woohoo!
6. Watercooler ::  cold
7. Desk ::  cluttered
8. Human ::  Resources
9. Resort ::  to the beach!
10. Boss ::  impress him/her

These words reminded me of that very short time I sent working as an Admin/Human resource assistant. Paperwork was boring. The tedious task of knowing the computer codes to use was a bit too much for me since the ones we used then were the old chunky machines, so unlike the netbooks that people use these days.

If perhaps I have a chance to go to this line of work again, I’m not sure I will enjoy doing paperwork more than the challenges I deal with at my present work.

These photos were for a photo scavenger hunt (different from the Saturday Photo Hunter meme that I participate) that I plan to join but was not able to.

Some photos included were taken by my 13yo daughter.

1. A View from Above (looking down)

Airplane ride from Bohol to Manila (photo taken by my 13yo daughter)

2. A Macro Shot

Sunflowers are very bright and lovely flowers

3. Laughter

Going down a slide is pure happiness

4. Relaxation

A respite and shade from the noon heat

5. A Celebration

Christmas, ‘tis the season of joy and love.

6. A Sunset

Cityscape sunset

7. Sun/Lens Flare

Sun flare being blocked by a big leaf

8.  A Bridge

Would you dare cross that hanging bridge? No, there are no crocodiles lying in wait just in case you fall down but then, that would double the fun, wouldn’t it? (Photo taken by my 13yo daughter)

9.  A Shadow

Wouldn’t you know, it is almost high noon but because of the shadows cast by the trees, this road is quite shady and still cool for a walk.

10.  A Garden

My MIL‘s home garden (Photo taken by my 13yo daughter)

Monday is not a day that I really look forward to, especially when I feel I still have to rest more.

Monday means work, homeschooling and yes, more work.

On the other hand, Monday means weekend is something to look forward to and this weekend, I intend to have more fun with the family 😀

So in order to make my day (and perhaps your day too) brighter, I decided to post this beautiful flower photo.

The flower made me smile and felt better 🙂

Last night’s dinner with mommy blogger friends had neighbors and neighborhood as one of the many topics being discussed. I of course, shared the horror show called “our neighbors” that we always experience.

One time, one of the kids said maybe we need to move if these things make us upset. If only it is as easy as it sounds, be it that there are lots of real estate people willing to pitch a sale, we would have moved already, even if it means going as far as talking to a Wilmington NC real estate office.

Hmmm, why not? This would definitely be a welcome move, to say the least. Maybe, I need to do this before we can afford that move, LOL!
