Hi Holly, Oh, so you are now full time into freelance writing?  What were you doing before that and did you just change career by tranistioning into it or just change completely right away?  I am thinking about the same thing..  It is…

It's exciting to take steps towards pursuing your passion, isn't it? That's what happened when I made the decision to pursue freelance writing as a career a few years ago--it just makes me feel more "alive." :o) I…

New Year 2012

With the new year just starting, I want to sit down again and think about new year resolution. First to recap last year, year 2011 was very special for our family as my daughter Sophia was born in 2011.  She is a bundle of joy and truly a blessing from God.  My life has changed dramatically since then and although there are tough times, but I wouldn't exchange my life now for anything else.  We spent our first Christmas together and was especially wonderful with my parents around for Christmas…See More

Pregnant In Week 19

Week 19:

My baby is growing rapidly. I started to feel that it is pushing upwards sometimes and I find it harder to breathe. I am still going to prenatal yoga and it helps me quite a bit to stretching out and strengthen my body. I admire those ladies whose tummy is already very big and is still going to yoga class. I will attempt to do the same until the end of my pregnancy.

For some reason, I feel more tired these days so I am sleeping more. I also started to be nervous about…

Pregnant in Week 18

I don't know why I suddenly decided to start writing about my pregnancy experience but once I stepped into my second trimester, things seem to change dramatically everyday. Once a friend told me to write down everything or take a picture of how things are changing because this kinda of experience is so invaluable and precious. They are part of my life experiences. As a result, I have decided to start writing a short blog about how I am going through my pregnancy every…

Christmas This Year

How is everyone's Christmas? I had a very relaxing Christmas this year. This year, many of my friends are out of town and I just stayed in town. It was a good break because my husband got to relax a bit and took 2 days off! Taking days off is almost unheard of these days and I guess that makes us cherish our time together even more:) We didn't do much but had hot pot dinner on Christmas Eve and watched the movie Avatar on Christmas Day. Life as a couple is very enjoyable and with both of our… Continue

I am A Working Machine

I feel like I have become a working machine these days! After passing my 20's, I thought that I can settle down and start a family. I got married but with no kids. At the same time, I am working my butt off for more financial stability. Sometimes, I just want to slow down and do what I enjoy doing. I like to help other people and spend less time in the office. However, these days and with the current economy, it feels imperative that I should earn as much as possible, especially before I have… Continue

I don't know if you've read this or not, but I got this site in my email and thought of you. It's about tips for setting up a nursery: http://www.babble.com/products/baby-products/nursery-design-new-baby-bedding-decorating-ideas/?utm_source=Babble&utm_campaign=23815c1485-11_1111_9_2010&utm_medium=email

yup. got kicked out of the house, became homeless, he's working his butt off to get us an apartment, we keep either getting declined or simply not hearing back, i'm stuck 300 miles away, i'm pregnant, he has managed to hurt me a few times, i've managed to hurt him a few times.. yup grand ol' marriage this one.

Hi. Life sucks. I'm 300 miles away from my husband and have no idea when I'll be back in his arms. It's been 7 weeks and counting already, and it's eating at our marriage.

There are no words out there to explain how financially stressed we are. My school just screwed me over, and I now owe an excess of $3000 by the first of June or pay $500 a month for the next nine months. That, topped with hospital bills to make sure I'm healthy, is not good. I don't have that kind of money anyway. $500 would take all of our family's income, because we also have to pay rent $300 biweekly. I don't even make $300 and my husband doesn't make much more than I do. We are seriously screwed right now, and that makes me scared to do anything about the baby..
