Short on cash but love seafood?

Carmina was planning to get a haircut on November 12, 2025, at Headway Salon in Tomas Morato . I called Mom Violy to see if she wanted to have lunch together and let her choose the restaurant. She then asked which seafood restaurant is located in Tomas Morato. Carmina sent the link to Mom Violy it is called,  Dampa Seafood Grill . When we arrived at Dampa Seafood Grill, the music was very loud. Since Mom Violy doesn’t like loud music, she asked if they could turn it down a bit. Upon entering, someone will ask how many are in your party; we told them there were only two of us, and they showed us to our seats. Mom Violy also requested a spot away from the direct blast of the air-conditioning. The restaurant has a policy to read before you place your order. Mom Violy decided to order her favorite butter garlic crab and shrimp from the menu, pleased to find the prices affordable.

Talking to Senior's

 


I have been receiving calls from my mom's best friends who are a senior citizen and telling me if I can hear them clearly as they tell me stories their children are telling them they need to start wearing a earing aid.

My adopted mom said why do I need to wear a earing aid when I call you I can hear you clearly and heck I don't want something hanging in my ear the more people know I have aged.

I was teasing my adopted mom people will not think your old because the hip thing now us younger people are wearing ear buds in our ears to listen to music so either way does it look like I am old too.

We had both laughed and my adopted mom either way I don't want something hanging inside my ears how irritated it will be to have something stuck inside.

Just last week I had received a new earbuds I had ordered online Manang V asked me what is that so expensive. I had informed Manang V it is earbuds to distract myself from the noise in the house. I asked Manang V do you also want one for your ears so you can hear us but for you it is hearing aid since you have told me several times you cannot hear us.

Manang V said my budget is PHP 150.00 ($3.00) I said if you buy something that price it will be broken when you use it once and there is no hearing aid for that price range.

Manang V said than I would rather hold off on the hearing aid and let you talk a little louder or go close to you when you speak.

I remember one Grandmother told me when you reach my age you will know how it is so right now you can laugh at me and I will laugh up there in heaven when you reach my age.
