CONDOMINIUM

Well, wala koy mabuhat. Nimsg man siya lagi last Monday 8/15/22 evening so I sent him info about condo units for sale in Panglao. Actually dali ra kaju sija nibawos to my msg about the condo units. Hmmm, ganahan ra pud siya mopalit ug condo sa Panglao? Sa 2023 p lagi daw to mahuman pohon. It's Royal Oceancrest Panglao, sa may San Isidro area. This site, https://primaryhomes.com/projects/royal-oceancrest-panglao. Akong gicharan oi. I said at least this time, he will not have a friend who has property in Parañaque but also in Panglao too! Heheh. Wala p man daw momsg ni Ate Ica lagi so basin nagstudy p to siya kung mopalit b o di or kung unsay iyang response lagi siguro. Interesado man daw pud mopalit ug condo unit diris Cebu si Darwin Astillo, my high school batchmate because his daughter is studying in CDU man. Ate Ica is just looking for her 1st sale jud. So jia you to us always. Aloha! :)

2ND TIME

Niari sila Dodong and family, albeit for a very short time lng jud for the 2nd time here in Cebu last August 10 to 13, 2022. Panagkot sa Simala ra jud to lagi ilang giari and gisulit n lng pud ang bayad sa sakyanan sa barko maong gasuroy2 pud sila as much as kaya. First time to diri ni Maris, Delia's cousin nga mao n pud bantay ni Patrick ron. Lingaw sija kay diris silong natulog kay wa kaagwanta sa katugnaw sa kwarto. Btw, plan ta sila moadtos Danao lagi sa maguwang ni Delia but tuas hospital daw kay napaso sa mantika. Get well soon always. Aloha! ;)

And by God's grace, nasaka ra lagi ang plastic cabinet sa taas y'day afternoon and nahuman naho ug balhin ahong mga butang by today 8/13/22. Sus daghan kaju ko ug mga sanina oi nga nakatago lng lagis plastic drawers ni Nang Anel. Aho tong pangsul-obon pohon. And nakalimot n lagi pud ko that I have those clothes and other stuff. Maong nice jud diay ng every now and then manghabwa ug mangsort para makit-an lagi ang mga tinagoan sa ilawom. Ig December siguro pohon mopalit n pud ko ug parador or isalbar tong parador ni Nang Anel kay pwede p mn jud to lagi aron kabutangan sa ahong mga libro2. Kaduha man jud mi nagdungan ni Delia ug sulti lagi last night gawas sa ahong damgo nga tae early this week. So kwarta n jud lagi to pohon2. Jia you to us all and aloha! ;)
