I didn't realize that I could file a claim a maternity benefit from SSS. Although my OB told me about it during my follow-up check-up after my miscarriage, I didn't pay much attention to it, thinking since I'm a voluntary member only, maybe I wouldn't get much. Thought that the effort to get the requirements from the hospital and filing the claim would not be worth it for the amount I would be getting.
Inayand I went to TheFood Club Lifestyle Buffet a few weeks ago to use the vouchers I've bought. We were excited. We were ready. We got to the restaurant a few minutes before its opening hour. We waited awhile outside. Good thing, there were tables and chairs for guests.
I rarely buy new books. Second-hand book shops are my go-to whenever I wanted to buy books. I get excited whenever I'm going to these book stores since I feel like I'm on a treasure hunt whenever I browse different titles, check out the back covers for the story's gist, and see how much I could save.
Late last year, I bought two vouchers for a discounted lunch buffet at a restaurant that I've been wanting to try. I'll be using these vouchers with Inay soon and I'm grateful to have the opportunity to give her her first encounter with an eat-all-you-can restaurant.
I noticed that there are still readers of my blog. A big thanks to you! Anyway, enough stories about my D&C. It just makes me sad whenever I think about it. Not to mention, a local host also lost her pregnancy recently, it brings back memories of what I went through. For now, I'll be writing about my dogs, Nami and Bruno.
I'm a writer by profession and a reader by heart. This blog started as a venue to record my wedding planning escapades. And now, I'm keeping it to journal my stories on being married to an OFW, dealing with infertility, my quest to lead a healthy and "green" life and trying to have a baby.
