Some days don't arrive with plans.
But it was full of moments.
Today was like that.
These are the ordinary snapshots that make up our simple, imperfect life.
And I'm grateful I noticed them.

A Short Trip For Muccho
Our day began when we brought our dog, Muccho, to our friend's house. They've been wanting a dog, so we offered ours. Muccho loves being outside too much. He keeps trying to go out, again and again. Unaware that not every road is safe. We place him on our e-bike. He sat there quietly. And then when we were about to get down, he peered through metal bars, his face pressed gently forward, quietly dramatic. 🤣

Mulberries
At our friend's place, they have these mulberries in their yard. Dark and sweet. It stains on my fingers as I gather them, so I make sure to just hold the stem.

Tokwa't Baboy For Lunch
By lunchtime, we have this tokwa't baboy. Simple food yet flavorful. The kind of meal that doesn't try to impress yet leaves your stomach full.

Twenty-Five Pesos In The Road
In the afternoon, we went to my brother's house. We were already on our way home when I saw a P20/$0.33, lying quietly on the road. Our e-bike passed over it, and for a second I told my hubby, that we should go back, as I saw a P20. 😅 And he did. We really did turn back. 😆 We slowed down, scanning the road carefully, questioning if it's really P20. 🤣 Still, we searched for the exact spot where my eyes caught it the first time. And then, there it was! I got down from the e-bike, carrying Aiden, and walked to the center of the road. My heart suddenly raced when I saw an approaching truck. But still, I picked it up. And right in front of it, added a bonus. There were P5/$0.08! Twenty-five pesos in total. After getting it, I laughed not because of the amount, but because of the effort. 🤭 The turning back, the slowing down, and the small risk for a small reward. Lol.

So that's it.
Just my everyday life. 🌷
Nothing big happened today.
And yet, everything mattered.
Until my next everyday snapshots...
Thanks for the visit! Have a lovely day. Buh-bye. 💗🌸
