The whole nine yards

The Whole Nine Yards: 

Everything. All of it.

I haven't updated this blog for almost a year and I have a legit excuse for it this time. Motherhood happened and the spare time I have I spend it sleeping, socializing offline and tying up loose ends.

Fact is, motherhood has taken up so much of my time that B and I decided that I can't work and be a mother at the same time. We've been asking for this blessing for a couple of years and now that it has finally arrived, I am willing to give up my 10 years experience in real-estate in exchange for being a newbie mother. It's my first time to admit that I am scared because it's an unfamiliar territory and a small creature will be controlling my waking hours from now on but this road is well-travelled already and I have a support system which is only a call or text away. 

For now, I'd like to post a throw back picture before Nate was born. This was taken during one of the many field works I usually do and I get very shy when someone takes a picture of me at public places..and here I am hoping that I could make some semblance of a #ootd entry 

Also, have you noticed that I like dressing up like a grandma? Must be my age. Haha

When Pigs Fly : 
Something that will never ever happen.

I get it. 

(oh by the way, congratulations Leo on winning the Oscars!)

iworeitanyway was born out of trying every thing that I think would look good on me and documenting it along with my thoughts on life. On the span of my ootds, there were fashion risks that might look ordinary to you but is actually a risk for me. 

Though I have the propensity to follow a certain pattern when it comes to dressing up, I take a hiatus once in a while and slip into something comfortable like what I am wearing now. 

At 29, I still don't know how to drive and I always rely on my husband to drive me around. The weather has gotten hotter since it's already summer and as I grew older, I tend to be more upset than ever when I have multiple errands and have to commute to complete my tasks. This day was one of those days. 

My life has been a balancing act lately. I've been trying to juggle my personal life, my husband's health, work-related things and self-expectations and last night I ALMOST got emotional about every thing but as I was talking to Bryan, I realized that amidst all the morass that I'm in, I forgot to pray. 

You know what they say about "let go and let God"? Well, I am a bit of a control freak so I've been trying to wrestle the Player 1 controller from Him. I know I am of no challenge when suddenly, the task that I've been dreading but have to do was taken away from be by circumstance. 

Did it make me happy? Of course! Though the lack of work load used to rankle me, this time I've decided to step aside, hold the Player 2 controller, let go and let God. 

Yes I only comb my hair once a week
