Just an update to remind myself months or years from now of what I was preoccupied with at this point in time...
I recently realized that I, once again, have regained my sipag and motivation to work. I lost my motivation before leaving for the US (which was last second half of 2023) and still didn't have it when I returned last year June and even until 1st half of this year. I guess it was BTS's announcement of their 2026 world tour. PRIORITIES. Lol. So, now, even if I am alone in my workshop and it is Christmas season- I am merrily working on orders. I'll have to make do with what I have and what I can accommodate. Maybe if I'll need an extra set of hands, I'll hire on-call help. Next year na si Madam Meme na nagpaparamdam.
Speaking of Madam M... I already asked her to come back just for three months, October to December this year, to help me with production. This was last year. She said yes naman. And, I also asked her in person when we met her in province earlier this year- she said, 'Diba nag-oo na ako, ate?' O e diba malinaw na dapat? She suddenly messaged me around July or August na baka hindi pa siya puede kasi nga maliit pa yung ampon niya achuchuchu... Okay, fine. I contacted the other option, Nica. Nica said yes also pagkatapos lang ng birthday niya which was in the latter days of September. Biglang nagmessage ang Madam M kung puede siya na lang. Sabi ko pupunta si Nica at message siya Nica kako baka kasi mag-iba isip. Anywaaaay, that was my bad. I don't know what Madam M said to Nica basta biglang hindi na tutuloy ang Nica at nakahanap na ng ibang work mas malapit sa kanila. EH BAKIT HINDI AKO MINESSAGE PARA MAGTANONG KUNG HINDI KO NA SIYA PAPUPUNTAHIN??? So sa inis ko, hindi ko rin papapuntahin si Madam M... hanggang kaya ko. One thing I learned from these helps leaving at the most inopportune time without consideration is gamitan lang 'yan. That mentality will keep me from having sama ng loob. I mean, when I returned from the US it was when I needed their help the most being I can't and shouldn't strain myself too much, and it was also when they left me alone. Pero actually, I feel, it was a blessing in disguise. Business was slooooow and at least I didn't have to think about pang-sweldo with just me working on orders. So ayun, everything happens for a reason.
Moving on.
I have been to an osteopath twice just recently. I discovered I have a neck injury, which she's trying to correct/heal. The neck injury I must have gotten from getting massages from blind masseurs. Sabi nung bulag na masahista frozen shoulder DAW- so pinatunog niya yung mga buto-buto ko, hinigit mga braso etc. and there's this one time that when he rotated my arm, sumakit na yung right shoulder ko after that session. Hay. I actually like going to the osteopath, I like being the dry needling part most especially when done on my upper back and shoulders. Mahal lang siya, beh. Not LOL. Nakakaloka, tumatanda na talaga ako- I feel it in my fingers, I feel it in my toes. Still, not LOL.
Anyway, ayan lang muna. I hope to get more orders since Christmas is just 75 days away.
Work muna tayo po, opo :P
