It's Ma's birthday today. *happy dance* 89 years old, bless her. And even though it's a challenge to live with her at times, that is part of the package.

Am having to plan for necessary things that I hope I won't have to do for a long time yet; but one must be practical. As the youngest in a household with three seniors, one with a serious medical condition, it is the Damoclean sword of my life.

We're planning to go up to Tagaytay. The weather is cloudy outside, perfect for a drive into the country. Though the way up has lost a lot of its rustic atmosphere what with real estate developments sprouting like mushrooms. Lunch at Taal Vista=buffet! Yum. :)

Back home after a day in Tagaytay. Ma had fun and enjoyed the cool air at Task Vista, Everyone ate well from the buffet, I even managed a half-hour back and shoulder massage. *g*

Went into housekeeping mode directly we arrived home; put away clean laundry while Ramon fed the cats. Have to attend to the litter pans now, while Dad catches up on American Idol.
