Alive & Thriving Goals Monday : Night Mass Begins... || AATYr6 || Prompt A Day 😊
Start of another work week... and it's now the middle of the last month of the year 🎉 Locally, it's the start of the Simbang Gabi -- ideally, it's held early morning, but for years now, I've attended the anticipatory mass that happens the night before. I do prefer the 8pm mass rather than getting up at 4 or 5 in the morning. 😝
No meal subscription during the weekend means I cook my own. I decided to mix canned corned beef (relief goods from the Christmas package given by the local government), chicken sausage and macaroni. Voila! I can enjoy this soupy dish as I did have leftovers. No meal delivery for the last two weeks this year though, so I will need to do some meal planning for the next few weeks. 🤔
Saturday steps be like... almost 5K but still not quite. 😒 Seriously, I wonder what else to do to get there. 🤔 And no, I don't like going out often. I definitely need walking exercises inside the flat. Hmm..
I got a lovely surprise this morning when I saw the purple wreath plant finally produced multiple stems of flowers. 😮 I've waited for it for years.😍 I thank the universe for this beautiful gift. 💞

'Tis a quote after my own heart. Honestly, if I would celebrate for only once a year, I might become sad as I'm celebrating on my own during this time of the year. This will be the third year, but I've decided to spread out my celebration and appreciation for life. It's no longer about finding meaning but creating meaning in each and every day. 😉 I have no idea what the new year will bring. My 2025 was not really all that good, but I will look at it as lessons learned and continue to move forward. Perhaps having an optimistic mindset will bring be brighter and better days ahead. 🙏❤️💡

Back for another week of tracking Hive goals. There's a new Christmas mission on Rising Star game so I needed to buy the necessary card to do the mission. 😅 I've gotten one prize already but will keep doing the mission till I get the second card. 😛 It's still too pricey to buy it at this time. 😝
Hive goals remain: 16K HP, 300 HBD, 75K AP. Just keep growing.. slowly but surely.. one day at a time 🎉 Back for more tracking again next week 🎉
Nine days to Christmas eve.. it's great that there's the simbang gabi to help me with the countdown. 😆 Well this is it! Counting down now.. have you got any plans for the holidays? I have yet to do my meal planning for then 😂 I think I still have time.. let's see what I can come up with by then..
I actively work on these affiliate sites daily. Goal is to reach another payout on LL. I'm a long way to another round of cash out.
It's finally a wrap. Time to rest and recharge for another day. I believe we're working until the 23rd. Then we get around two weeks of break. 😮 I guess I will just handle it when it comes, but it might help if I make a list of stuff I want to accomplish when I have the extra time. Will definitely be working on that list. Well, have a wonderful week y'all! Nighty night from Manila. Ta-tah! 👋

Well i don't do mass or any other religous ceremonies, i also had a side hustle turn into a full business so that has kept me busy.
For Xmas we have family over and have a traditional buffet for 3 days over the christmas week with various family members attending throughout.
When i say traditional is just for our family really as most people in the UK sit down to a full christmas roast and trimmings.
Thankfully i do not have to worry about meal planning, that is the wife's job 🤣
Or as we say in my family a pink job 😉
Have the best week @iamraincrystal
