I woke up this morning feeling uneasy about something. Parang masikip damit ko. I realized I was still wearing the same clothes that I had when Edmund and I went to church last night. Tapos masakit ang ears ko, yun pala I still had my earrings on, and my black watch. I fell asleep pala without changing my clothes and removing my jewelry.

I forced myself to stand up. I got disoriented because my surroundings were different. Kasi in our room, kahit ako nakapikit, I could go to my bathroom, I knew how to navigate even with eyes closed or in pitch darkness.

Yun pala, I fell asleep in my daughter’s bedroom. The last thing I remembered was Edmund and I came home at 9 pm tapos my daughter was in her bathroom nag-me-make-up kasi gi-gimmick daw with her Ateneo classmates. Then I sat down on her mattress. The rest is history.

I had an hour of sleep yesterday. Before I could go into deep slumber, the alarm went off because Nyke’s Delta flight was early. I cried and cried at the airport and in the van after we dropped him off. I was still crying intermittently the whole day.

Nainis pa ako kay Edmund dahil sa ipis. Yes ininis nya ako dahil sa ipis. They rhyme. Inis and Ipis.
Even before we constructed this house (7 years ago), I had requested many times to cover the entry points from the drainages to the house with a screen, to minimize the chances of ipis entering the main house. Hindi nya ginawa. Tapos, now that we’re renovating our dirty kitchen, sabi nya oo daw tapos yesterday morning I noticed several ipis have started to enter the kitchen, yun pala wala rin sya balak sundin ang sabi ko. Nasagad na ako sa inis.
I got so drained. I had severe migraine attack. I took Biogesic, hindi nawala. After 5 hours, I took 250 g of Ponstan and Bonamine. I also placed hot towel on my forehead, head, shoulders and nape.

The two of us heard mass at 6:40 pm, late nga dahil sa migraine ko. Then we went to Home Depot to look at stainless kitchen cabinets, then dinner, kaya pag-uwi, plastado ako. Until now my eyes are still puffy.
