Practicing With My New Camera Phone
It’s been a while, and I mean the last time I updated this site was more than two months ago. I love my new phone camera. So easy to take photos. Tried it again this morning taking photos of plants thriving in the garden.

About arlene
It's been some years since I started this blog. Supposedly, it was only to share my plight as a cancer patient and survivor but over the years it has somehow evolved into something personal about my life and my family. So really glad to have met you all wonderful people out there. Someone commented once that he liked the title of this blog, Dreams and Escapes. Dream on, there are more things in life than we really think. Be happy, you only live once. Sometimes you also need an escape from the vicissitudes of life and this blog helps me cope. Welcome. Feel free to leave your comments, I do welcome them.13 responses to “Practicing With My New Camera Phone”

Merry Christmas
It’s been more than a month since we saw each other, they were here when Noel and Lanette arrived from the USA. That was more than a month ago. Yesterday we had our Christmas lunch. We forgot to take pictures except for the two shots I took during our meal prayers. Then I also took […]
It’s Nate’s 10th Birthday
Nate’s First Communion
I am saving photos of Nate here during their first communion last Friday. He is growing so tall for his age.
Proud Nonna
Oh my! So proud of this little guy (not so little anymore), he is now almost as tall as I am. Nissa just forwarded a copy of Nate’s grades for their third grading period. Everything went up despite that most of the time he is unsupervised because Obet and Nissa are now reporting for work […]
Nate At The Garden.
They came here yesterday to celebrate New Year with us. After lunch, Nate said, “can we go out at the garden Nonna?” I asked him why and he added, “I want to pick kalamansi”. That’s Philippine lime. I told him they are still so small so I showed our two jackfruits. “Can we play instead?” […]
More Shots
Here are more photos of Nate’ birthday. They spent it in Subic in Zambales. It was a joint celebration of their 10th anniversary and Nate’s 9th birthday.

Gosh, why do I find it so hard to acces this site. Still a trial and error thing. It always points me to my main blog.

Be Strong And Courageous
It’s been a while. I am reblogging this here from my main blog Dreams and Escapes. I hope you’ll find time to visit it to. My gosh, I got so excited when I saw it. There are several designs actually and all with Biblical passages. One of the vendors in our subdivision is selling them. […]
What A Surprise!
I can’t believe I haven’t touched and visited this blog like forever (an exaggeration of course) but I was so focused on updating my main blog so I forgot about this. Early this morning while I was watering the plants, I looked up at our jackfruit trees and saw this. I was hoping I could […]

Lato, Anyone?
Gosh, I can’t believe it’s been almost a year now since I posted something here. I am always updated with my main blog though, a link of which is attached here. Sharing this photo I took yesterday, we locally call it Lato salad, a appetizer. I love seaweeds and I buy them once in a […]
He Is A Big Boy Now
Nonna’s joy. I think this is the second time I posted a picture of my grandson here. He is turning six this coming November. Time flies. Happy Grandparents’ Day to all proud grandparents like I am.
Something To Think About
Gosh. I haven’t updated this site for so long concentrating instead on my main blog Dreams and Escapes. I hope I would be able to post more in the coming days.
My Garden Blooms
This is just my 89th post after three years of blogging. But I have always been updated with my main blog. You can find the link here on the right corner of the blog. I’ve recently took shots of our garden blooms. Summer is here and more blooms could be seen. […]

You are such a talented photographer and gardener, friend ❤️. Thank you for sharing!
Oh, thanks Jenny. I appreciate this.
Good work. I had to enlarge to see the fruits 🙂
Thanks Derrick! The fruits are small actually.
They all look unusual and exotic to me, Arlene.
Glad to see you enjoying your garden.
Best wishes, Pete.
Thanks Pete 🙂
Great photos. Did you post from your phone too?
Thanks Angeline. Transferred them to my PC first.
Thanks, Arlene. That’s what I do too. Still have trouble posting from my phone.
I sometimes use FB then download them later to my PC.
