During the typhoon Glenda, Mama's house got tore up. She lives by the ocean so it is very windy there especially during typhoon months.
I tried to encourage my Mom to live with my sister in the city but she doesn't want to. She is used to living at our old place and she doesn't want to leave the memories that she and my father have built for years.

While eating breakfast, I told my kids that we need to send my Mom some money because her house got tore up during the recent typhoon that hit Philippines. My son immediately said, "I Will donate $10 off my savings!" J.Rylie C. said that we should have a garage sale this weekend and whatever we collect, we will send to "Lola". My heart melts with my children's compassion.

Come to think of it, a garage sale is a great idea. We have so many baby stuff from our storage that we don't need anymore. So if the weather is good this weekend, we will have a garage sale. I have never done this before but will give it a shot. With enrollment fast approaching and bills piling up, money is a little tight. Budget crunch!!!
