On Counting my Blessings

A shot I had taken online from Nuffnang's site.

It's only the beginning of the year 2011, and I am speechless with all the blessings I have received. This early I have so much to be thankful for. i won in the Nuffnang and Nutroplex Top of the Class Blogging Contest (Best Story)--It was something I had not expected in the first place because I thought I write too much. One blogger I know even said that she finds reading my blog posts really boring that reading them lulls her to sleep. I'm sorry if this is really the case, i just love writing so much that sometimes, there are tendencies for me to write really long blog posts. Anyway, winning that blog contest gave me some kind of confidence. It had given Kyle a Muji study table and chair and P8k worth of gift certificates from Fullybooked. The latter meant that I could finally regain the mini library that I had lost from super typhoon Ondoy in 2009. I had once blogged about losing my interest on books after my precious collections submerged in flood water--I could vividly remember how I tried my best to dry my books and save them with a hair blower--drying them page by page. Other hardbound books, I grieved and cried for them an entire week. God must have finally heard and answered my prayers, He had restored my interest for reading books again.

Then, I had also finally repaired my mac mini. I've had it reformatter and upgraded from a Tiger 10.4 to a Leopard 10.5. As of this writing, I am still trying to adjust with its new operating system and with its new specs to boot--its got iWeb, Time Capsules, Space among others. I am forever grateful to Liza Abrigana for referring me to Ynzal Marketing after Apple's Power mac Center had denied me. And to Mr. Nomer, the technician who was very patient and helpful in answering my inquiries. Thank you so much!

I was able to find a new therapist for kyle as well. It's quite difficult for us to travel to Culiat each Thursday afternoon, especially after Kyle's classes--but I trust the Lord God that it will all be worth the trip. I hope to see improvements in Kyle's behavior soon. I'm giving it a time frame...

To those I may have wronged, I ask forgiveness...
To those I may have helped, I wish I did more...
To those I did not help but SHOULD have, I ask for understanding...
And to those who HELPED me big or small, I sincerely thank you from the bottom of my heart.
