·        Tita Madre emailed me that a brother of her co-nun in Botswana will be going to Africa.  And so, if there is anything we want to send (like medicines and vitamins, etc.), we can course it through him.  Yahoo!  At least no more air freight and again the hassle of explaining to couriers that Botswana is in south of Africa. And so, I dropped our small package for Tita Madre to the said person going to Africa (he’ll be leaving on the 28^th na agad kasi).  Of course that happened with some glitches.  Of all the drop off areas, it had to be in one of the weirdest street in Makati (Florida Street in Palanan)!  I was to look for a “3462” along a three-block short street; and the task took me 20 friggin’ minutes (pabalik-balik ako sa street na yun)! One, the street does not have ample lighting.  Two, the houses/buildings do not have their numerical markers (I literally have to knock and ask, “3462” po ba ito?”). Three, the numbering of the houses/buildings is soooo absurd (not consecutively done). On the one side in the middle of the street, I saw “3479;” on the direct opposite side, I saw “3461.” I thought, oh well, “3462” must be the next house, if not, near it might be already.  But no,  “3462” was not beside nor across or anywhere near “3461!”  “3462,” I was told much later by a passerby, is on the next block of the street.  Next block?! Gawd!

·        Weird, I was not caught in any heavy traffic along service road this morning!  To think I left home late and Pacquiao arrived an hour ago (would be passing by near our area).  I swear, traffic along our area is really sooooo unpredictable!

·        My eyes! My eyes!  Watching TV this morning (local news and CNN) was tough.  Blurred vision from my usual chair across the TV set!  Then, driving was tougher.  Everything was a bit bleary.  These words I’m typing are a bit blurred as well. Either I just have tired eyes due to lack of sleep (went to a wake last night) or prolly my grade must have gone up again.  Incidentally, nanang’s got eye problems as well.  Her eyeglasses conked out on her yesterday.

·        Speaking of nanang, her lab results indicate she’s got a problem with cholesterol too.  Unfortunately, this and her age gave some complication with her aorta.  Let’s see what the doctor has to say. At least her uric acid level is good.  So oatmeal diet for her. The project 2 folks are also problematic with their cholesterol level.  Dang. The stuff we eat are killing us.
