EMPOWERED MOM

These two  doesn’t go together? Family Time and Power Interruption does go together, when it’s permitted to be..

Today, my class and I spent only 30 minutes in class. When the brownout started at 6pm, we were all on our way out of the gate.  I was at Mercury Drugstore when my sister sent a text message saying that they will be going to SM. And I told her that I want to go with them since I do not have a class due to the power failure.  They have planned to go to SM after dinner because of the same reason. And so I went to SM and met up with them..

First, we shopped for Lili’s and River’s costumes for their closing program, and a few more to add to their wardrobe,  then we went to Quantum and Worlds of Fun.. Then we ate waffle dogs and bought a few more foodies from Watson’s. We headed home before SM Cagayan de Oro closed. When we arrived home, we only had to wait a few more hours/minutes then electricity came alive again..

This rotational power interruption is crazy, and is really giving a headache for everyone.. But, like all other adversities, we simply need to find what’s best about every situation.. After all, it’s all a matter of perspective..

My family had fun, especially the kids.. What more can I ask for.. Not asking for power interruptions to frequently come but, I am hoping we will be able to keep our cool when they come so as not to ruin a good family bonding..

A Louisiana sex offender was found out.. Well, that is what I read in another blog. It so happened that the father of the would-have-been-next victim saw this website about sex offenders with record. He visited www.louisianasexoffenders.net and found out as many names and photos were listed there, including the man who pretended to befriend his daughter and the entire family. Well, what do you know..  Truly, that is a site that is indeed very helpful. It is also encouraging people to use it and do searches through the site. It helps to know if the person you are dealing with has a record or not. And this data base website will somehow help you protect yourself, your loved ones and your family.

Just like the case of Jaycee Lee Dugard who was kidnapped on June 10, 1991, when she was 11 years old. And when she was found she had two children whose father is her abductor, Phillip Craig Garrido. The latter is a registered sex offender. And because he has a record, it was easier for the police officer to suspect something was not right when she met him along with his daughters when they went to visit. From that meeting sprung the recovery of Jaycee.

Imagine that..
