Dear Mama,
I feel cold right now, and sleepy, too. I hope it's just the weather, but I already took paracetamol to be sure, Mama. Honestly, I don't feel well but it's Monday tomorrow, I have to work,
Anyway, there's no one here to take care of me. I'm sure this will be gone tomorrow.
I miss you, Mama. I wish you were here.
I love you.
Daddy
Dear Mama,
Edgar is back to work since yesterday. Thank God his antigen test resulted to negative last Wednesday, Mama. I was really anxious before. I thought we will be going through isolation again. At least now, he is okay, Mama. Thank you for helping me take care of him.
Unfortunately for Angel, she is still not called back to work. Because she missed a lot of training during our quarantine, she has to wait for the next schedule new training to begin and she will be starting again. As she was advised, it might be at the last week of February, Mama. Although, there is no assurance that she might be called again. I advised her to try working on La Forge where she was hired before but she did not complete the pre-employment requirements. But she doesn't want to.
Anyway, at least I am thankful that all our children are well now. Hoping this will continue, and that we will be getting our booster shots soon.
That will be all for now, Mama. Please continue guiding and watching over us.
I miss you, Mama.
I love you.
Daddy
Dear Mama,
I am at the office now. Edgar feels better when I left for work, although he won't be going to work so he can rest. I also reminded him to continue taking medicines, Mama.
Please help me take care of him, Mama. Nothing can really substitute for a mother's love and care.
I miss you, Mama.
I love you.
Daddy
Dear Mama,
Dear Mama,
It seems I'm getting paranoid lately. Whenever I cough, sneeze, or even when I just feel cold I am already getting into a state of paranoia. I can't help it, Mama. I don't want us to go through that again, no matter how mild it may be.
Angel still isn't back to work even though she completed all the required clearance and certification because they are waiting for the schedule of a new training. She has to start again, Mama. That's the effect of the quarantine to her, even though she was negative, because she missed a lot of trainings. There is no catch up for them, so she has to start again.
Ralph still wasn't able to get the certifications, although he is already working because they are in a work from home set up. Next week he will be getting the certificates, as well as try to reimburse the expenses during his hospitalization.
Edgar is not feeling well right now. Although he is up and about, but he said he has cold. I hope it's just because of the weather, Mama.
It is still quiet now at the neighborhood, and I'm really glad it is. I have a slight headache right now, Mama. But I think it's because of the eyes. Probably my hair, too. My hair quite long and thick, now. My last haircut was last October, I think.
Anyway, that will be all for now, Mama. Hoping things will get better so I can be with you soon.
I miss you, Mama.
I love you.
Daddy
Dear Mama,
Sorry I wasn't able to write immediately. As I mentioned in my last letter, we went home last Tuesday, and there were a lot of catching up to do - house chores, my work, and my Toastmasters duty, among others. This is our first weekend at home right now, Mama. So far, it has been quiet here in the neighborhood. How I wish it will stay this way, Mama.
Angel bought a cake last Tuesday, and we were able to sing her a birthday song. It was a bit late, but as you know, we were all quarantined on her birthday. I hope we will be able to have a celebration for her this month.
Still a lot of things to be done. I hope I am not late and will still be able to catch up and prepare a better future for our children, Mama. I really want to rest, but I know my mission is not yet finished.
This will be all for now, Mama. Until we will be together again.
I miss you, Mama.
I love you.
Daddy
Dear Mama,
Dear Mama,
Dear Mama,
It's the second day of 2022, and things are getting back to normal... or should I say, abnormal. Aside from the recent under-development in Metro Manila, which was the heightened restrictions due to an action of an irresponsible person, things are getting back to the way they used to be here in Angeles City. The only thing that shows there is still Covid is the wearing of facemasks, which is not even worn properly by some people. Other than that, people are no longer taking precautions, Mama.
Of course, that also means it will start to get noisy here again in our neighborhood. And that will also mean my anxiety and stress level will go up again. If only there is a way for us to move to another place, Mama. Unfortunately, I am such a failure that I cannot do anything.
Tomorrow, the kids will be going back to work. Ralph is still here. They are still on a work-from-home set up as I mentioned in my previous letter. As for me, I will be returning to work on Tuesday. Too bad, because the original plan was next Monday.
Anyway, that will be all for now, Mama. I miss you. I wish you were still here with us.
I love you, Mama.
Daddy
