Lunchtime and there’s a heavy rain outside ….. storm ‘Helen’ entering Philippine territory.. I haven’t written a word or letter this morning for my required Julia Cameron/The Artist’s Way three morning pages …So this lunch break , feasting on bangus-fish and okra in olive oil and three pieces of bananas , am going to jot down anything that comes to mind .. like , didn’t I notice that most of the pictures I’m uploading in my blog are not mine … of course I thank and acknowledge the owners of those pictures … see … I have future plans for this blog … this blog will mutate into my travel blog when I embark on my post-retirement tour of Europe , both East and West , the Holy Land and Turkey ( is it part of Europe?) and then into my business blog/website when I put up my own clothing and home furnishings line/designs …I believe ….. Already, I have a byline for my designs --- “ I only wear originals ….. mine .” . But of course, that won’t do for a business ad copy … Maybe I can change that to “You only wear originals …..mine . Still doesn’t sound perfectly right for business purposes … I’ll think of something ….
I’m getting the hang of preparing my own meals … I have to watch my diet and nutrition . Got high marks (not necessarily good) for my cholesterol and triglyceride levels in my lipid profile , twice …. My HDLs, the bad guys, are way up here when they should be down there … and my LDLs , the good guys, are way down there when they should be up here , thus the oatmeal-salmon-lettuce-celery-broccoli- tuna-carrots-bananas-olive oil-grapeseed oil-and-the-like meals I prepare …sounds gourmet hah …I also do galunggong or bangus in olive oil, tilapia in olive oil next , kamote tops and okra in olive oil …. Maybe I’ll also try something French like ratatouille ( hmmm …. No red rick-racks underlining … I got the spelling right the first time …. …pat on my back …) feeling good about this diet thing …

Talk about my own photographs which I took with my cell phone cam , basic. One is the stingray pic I took on my solo visit to the Manila Ocean Park . I’ve titled it ‘Stingray Belly on my Head’ ---- funny the nose , mouth and eyes on one flat surface… called it that because I love salmon-belly and bangus-belly dishes . Another are the pics of my pet cats , the males in my life, Salvatorre (Badong) and Francesco (Coocoo). Badong in his , what I call, the emperor pose … I marvel at his natural aristocratic air , and Coocoo , in his shy, quiet, nondescript poses ….But he’s the easier company , quiet
and non-intrusive, the perfect condo cat . Badong is … I’ve never seen a noisier and peripatetic cat . Ninety percent of his six waking hours ( cats are supposed to be asleep about 18 hours a day) is meow-time while running up and down on whatever elevations there are in our tiny condo unit … and most of those six hours are during the wee morning hours. …. Arrrggh !!! I’ve turned into a screaming hag because of that ….
Bye time now …..
