My most reluctant model. Not.

The recent economic downturn has caused too much damage on many people's lives in many aspects. I can say that we were one of these people affected by the greatest recession of all time. My husband lost his job one year ago. However, now that the economy is slowly picking up, the Lord God above has finally set down his plans for my husband. He just recently landed a job and today was his first day (after exactly 1 year of being SAHH - Stay at home husband).

My job gives me opportunity to work from home 2 days every week (yep, every week - unless there's a requirement for me to be onsite the whole week and this seldom happens by the way). So, today, the feeling was so different that I'm home alone. The place looks empty and quiet. To maximize the opportunity of serenity, I was able to dig (yes, I'm not yet done with my digging!) some of his old pictures (not that old though, maybe a few months or a year old). To show my appreciation of my husband's never ending hope and faith, I offer these to you (I hope this would make you smile even for just a bit) :

"Basura na lang ba ako sa buhay mo?" (March 21, 2009) Because the weather was nice that day, we, together with a couple of friends, decided to go to Lake Shore and relax. I remember that we also ate at a nice Korean restaurant before going to Lake shore.

"Dala mo na ba ang mga epektus?" (December 2008) This was at O'hare International Airport - Northwest Airlines Terminal. We were both so happy during this time. This was the day we were going to Philippines for vacation. *sigh* Wonder when we would set foot again on our mother land.


This was sometime in June 2009, inside the Metra Train (Northwest Line). We were on our way to downtown Chicago to meet with a friend from Cayman Island. He brought my old camera (which I still dearly love) for his use and snap! I took his picture while aiming at something (I don't know what).

So, there you go. Meet my most willing model. :)
