Too much gala (outings).

Body responded with immune system crash.

I've had just been getting back to posting regularly and my body said slow down. 🤦🏻‍♀️

Had to go get some medicine and garage bags. Toni asked me what i wanted to eat and all I wanted was siomai and chicharon bulaklak.

Comfort foods are sometimes necessary.

Now may this head and chest cold leave me alone, please.

I got sick when I first arrived. Im assuming I will get sick when I finally feel 'moved in' because thats how my body knows it can relax.

Living in the Philippines and the adrenaline of moving is wearing off, but the weight of living in the US is gone.

Im tired from navigating the logistics of the move, but its absolutely nothing compared to our life in the US.

I get asked by people if I can manage without katulong (hired help) here. And in my head I go over all the things i had to do as a working mom on top of the housework.

Truth be told, we dont really miss much of our life in the US.

Its easier to take care of ourselves here

Finding beauty from the things that fall.

Keeping structure at home amidst the chaos.

Finding time to have family fun, while secretly sitting in nostalgia.

Its fun playing Zelda in the same room that i would watch my brother play games on our old tv. i just nwver thought id be the one playing it 🤣 i was always thebone that watched it.

If you didnt notice what I've listed, mindfulness, structure and routine, and community/family relationships are all healthy coping strategies.

What things do you do that you downplay, but are actually preventative health care?

It hits 31 C (87 F) and you start sleeping with a flannel on 🤦🏻‍♀️

Toni likes the room cold, and then I'm freezing lol. But really my body has just adjusted to the heat.

It was 28 C (82 F) today and I was in jeans and a thirt not even sweating. In the US, I could NEVER lol. Always shorts by the time it hit 70 F.

Funny how quickly it takes for the body to adjust.

Anyhow, cant wait for the beach this weekend.

Derp.

Your body recognizes when it’s safe to calm down. Normally it triggers what looks like fatigue and mental fog. But really it’s your body signaling it’s safe to pause.

We moved from WI to the Philippines two months ago and it has been non-stop shopping for furniture and appliances until our moving boxes came. Then it was shopping for storage. Doing all this while waiting in government lines and homeschooling my kids has been a lot to juggle.

I stopped making content to make sure I could be a parent everyday after handling all the official moving business. And trust me there’s a ton of content to be made.

Hopefully this means you’ll hear more from me as I get sick of unpacking. lol

I even bought derpy tiger to bring me some joy lol

The food culture in the USA is one that I made sure to break out of before starting our family.

Before kids, Toni and I shopped at the Lyndale Farmers Market in Minneapolis every weekend. After kids, it wasn’t financially sustainable so we pivoted to learning and working hard to get to homesteading.

We began a family culture of only shopping for what we needed and learning to grow what would feed us for the year. We did this alongside our closest family friends raising our children to be as close to our food as possible. We didn’t want to raise our kids to fill the refrigerator with food that would ultimately be forgotten and tossed in the trash. A common occurrence in a US Household. When you know how hard it is to grow and prepare your food, you’re less likely to just let it go bad to throw in the garbage.

We watched the trends and projected the coming years as our kids got older and decided that for the future of our children we needed to move out of the US to give them their best opportunities.

Moving to the Philippines while earning dollars is a privilege we will never take for granted. Which means, just because we can, doesn’t mean we will. It’s not about living with the convenience of US capitalism in a country that has a lower cost of living.

It’s about teaching our kids to be grateful for what we have in our day to day, as Toni and I optimize what we do save into more opportunities for their growth and development.

We went from a place where we were pinching pennes as a family of 4 at $100-150 a week to living very comfortably getting what we need at $50-$70 a week. The bulk of this cost, is meat.

Focusing on what you need declutters your fridge. But this habit can stretch to your entire life. You don’t need to move across the world to practice this technique.
