SM Lagro, Quezon City
Saturday, Aug. 19 -
Peter went to see his Dad in Project 6 and hoped to play tennis with him. I decided to do some house cleaning since it's tiring to go out in all the traffic and pollution. Boy, my parents got an imported maid. Lucky for them. :-P I cleaned and cleaned and still I haven't finished.
The weather was beginning to get dark by the time my parents left for choir practice. My sinus was acting up too. True to my sinus forecast, it rained that afternoon just as soon as Peter came back from Proj. 6. (He had an adventure when he rode the jeepney to get there as well as when he took the FX - a/conditioned public cab coming back to Lagro).
That night the rain poured so hard, it felt like a huge dam was being dumped on our roof. By golly, it was the first time in years that I've heard it rain this hard. And, to them this was not the hardest it had rained. Well, it's monsoon season so we should expect some rain quite frequently.

My parents left for Church at around 7 a.m. Peter and I followed an hour or so later. It was still raining and Peter felt he'd rather stay in but I reminded him that here in the Philippines even if it rained hard people were still out and about.
We got the first jeepney out of our place. It was an empty jeep, which was the worst choice. We could have gotten that jeep and got out in Fairview where we could have gotten a taxi or fx which could have brought us to the Church on time. Because the jeep was empty he had to stop frequently to find passengers which took about more than an hour. So we missed the start of the service and missed my Aunty Marissa and her husband Johnny who were waiting for us - they are leaving tomorrow to go back to Geneva. Shucks! That means we'll have to visit them in Geneva again. :-P
The guest speaker at church this morning was the Rev. Dr. Ed Agnir, who was a former UPCYMian and minister at CRL. He is in the Philippines to attend the Silliman Founder's day celebration beginning this 24th until the 28th. The CRL choir sang well this morning - one John Rutter and one Dougles Warner song.
Tito Manny drove us home in his car. But before that my dad treated us to the Sangkalan restuarant in Fairview. Thank goodness for frat brods, we got a free ride home.
Soon after arriving home Peter and I got ready to come here to do some long awaited posting. Hopefully, the next post won't be that long.
