Yes, I am a busy mom and to keep my life more easier I make my own journal for the past years to stay on schedule.

These are my previous Blogging Planner:

While you can use your mobile phone app to schedule your life activities, I found it easier to have it on my own. But this time, instead of making my own blogger planner for this year 2016, I was hook by this planner called AGENDA.

THE COVER

I bought this planner very cheap, only PHp79.00 at Gaisano South Mall Davao. A planner is one of the best blogger mom accessories, very affordable for a budget mother like me.

I am a visual person, I don't depend so much with the gadgets, especially when the phone battery dies or the SD CARD accidentally corrupted and you forget to back it up and lose everything. This planner will allow me to keep track on different schedules, read notes and appointments, in that way I can see and read it in front of me.

I feel immediately in love with the customize front, it has a quote starter in every page you wanted to open.

Front Page is for the CALENDAR. Here you can customize the month by way of writing or used stickers instead of writing it down.

THE FRONT PAGE

What I like about this, is that I can put my weekly and daily activities in one space --- and that is in my monthly views!

Monthly/Daily Activities

Next page is for my FAVORITES. This is where I'll put my favorite place, food, things, and/or a special day markers, schedules for group syndication's, and more...

One of my favorite thing about this planner is the spiral bound thingy, printed on recycled paper, meaning I can removed or re-used this from time-to-time. No more re-writing the ADDRESS book.

This is the place I will put all my friends contact & addresses,
birthdays, email, etc...

It's a great way for every mom to keep her thoughts, motivation, and inspiration together in one place - inside a NOTES.

And to make it a DIY Planner and opt for a more personalized printable one, this planner is quite fabulous! There is a portion that you can hang or clip or cut a little clipboard (it looks like a card for birthdays or anniversary) that you can put it into your desk or punch a hole into to and pass it out just to remind a friend for a great CHIT-CHAT.

Every year, I see to it that I have a new journal planner for my blogging.

For me, a planner is a perfect accessory to compliment my busy activities as a mother and as a blogger. I couldn't survive without it! It's a calendar, folio, notepad and an alarm to remind me of my daily, weekly and monthly activities for 2016.

Here are some awesome and cute Best Blogger Planner for 2016 that you can buy online:

Large Hard Linen Journal - SHINOLA

2016 Time Planner Medium - kikki.k

2015-2016 Brushstroke Gold Foil Hidden Spiral Planner - Paper Source

Wise Words 17- Month Planner - Anthropologie

2016 Everyday Planner - Miss Tiina (You may print this for personal use only)

So that's it, if you want to have a chic and cute-awesome blog planner you can buy it at your nearest bookstore, malls, online shop and/or make a DIY Blogging Planner.

Thanks guys for reading my post..

have an awesome day ahead!

Glad that I was invited to attend the #SunLife Brighter Life Freedom Celebration held at Abreeza Mall, Davao City.

###

As a fitting start to the new year, the “#LiveFreePH Freedom Tour” made a stop in Davao City to continue its financial freedom rally. From January 24 to 30, Davaoenos were treated to educational booths, exciting promos, and a free concert featuring Sun Life father-son ambassadors Piolo and Inigo Pascual.

Beginning the journey

A string of activities guided participants to begin their own #LiveFreePH journey. In a bold move, they declared their vision of financial freedom with the “Live Free Freedom Wall.” Then they looked at their current situation, shared their outlook about the future, and pledged support to a community in need through BLISS or “Brighter Life Index: Social Sentiment.” And by joining the “Sun CeleBright” promo, they won free trips to their chosen destinations!

But what made the #LiveFreePH Tour brighter were the Sun Life advisors ready to help those who want to jumpstart their financial freedom journey. Some were so inspired that they chose to become financial advisors themselves.

Pursuing the mission

In front of a jubilant and captivated crowd, the “Freedom Celebration” concert headlined by Piolo and Inigo amplified the mission of financial independence for everyone. Aside from belting his signature hits, Piolo serenaded the winners of the hugely popular “Selfie with Papa P” - where longtime fans get to meet their idol and take home a photo souvenir. Inigo also showed off his dance moves and energized the night with today's popular hits.

“We want Filipinos to believe that a brighter future is possible. We want them to be inspired to take on their own path towards financial freedom. And that they can start this meaningful journey with the help of our financial advisors,” said Sun Life Chief Marketing Officer Mylene Lopa. The #LiveFreePH Freedom Tour kicked off last year with stops in Pampanga and Iloilo.

Thank you, Davao, for embracing the challenge of financial freedom! Padayon!

The experience to meet these two, Iñigo and Piolo Pascual is very engaging! So humbling to meet a very warm and inspiring personalities, the two have a great tandem as Father-and-son.

It happened that my father is a Sun Life GREPA Policyholder, and I was very happy to know that he invested his money to a secured financial program which combines both investments and protection, preparing for life contingencies such as death, disability, sickness or old age. It also covers child education, retirement benefits and can be use to start a new business.

Now, as a policyholder he is enjoying his money without the hassle and worry of life's pressure.

When Piolo discuss to us the importance of having a financial insurance, I was planning of getting one for myself. SOON!

Freedom Celebration

The event was tremendously successful hosted by Sun Life Financial held at the Atrium of Abreeza, Davao Mall.

I went there together with +Busyqueenphils , and we really have a good time at the concert.

FREEDOM WALL

At the Freedom Wall you will see this sentence: "My day of freedom is when _______________."

...and here is my answer....

"....when I see my two children get their diplomas in college and become successful with their endeavors".

The goal of every parent should raise successful achievers. And to reach that, they have to prepare for their child's future.

#BrighterLife

Touch the SUN for a more brighter life....a game wherein you must grab/catch the sun and win fabulous prizes!

#YouOnlyLiveOnce

The best is yet to come, here comes the SUN, shining bright on you...

A good time to celebrate financial freedom.

And I am very aware now, that it's not too late for me to invest financially. When you have children your perspective in life changes.

Experience a smooth-running Lispher Inn in Davao City.

A historic home of the Borromeo, turn into a simple hotel or an inn, aglow with the patina of a restored antique, the luster of fine Spanish exterior and interior design and the sparkle of the modern furnitures, furnishing and fixtures.

Antique Ceiling

We got the privilege to meet the owner of Lispher Inn, Mr. Paul Borromeo. And relay to us a brief history of what is Lispher Inn all about.

Mr. Paul Borromeo

According to him, its started with his mother idea. When they out for vacation and visit other countries, her mother usually look for a family-budget inn that has great service.

In other places, big houses turn in to a BED & BREAKFAST. A sort of a hybrid between luxury hotel and a private room. A B&B is usually a small establishment, it has up to 4 to 10 rooms. And his mother want this kind of a concept turning their ancestral house into a lodging inn but they want to give it with a twist.

That is why in 1998 LISPHER INN was born.

LISPHER is the acronym of their names. He did not divulge the names, but he assures us that it is the owner's name.

Lounge Area

Instead of having limited rooms from 26 rooms they have 41 rooms now, that is to cater the growing demand of their regular clients and incoming guests. Usually, their clients are business travelers, tourists and families.

BTW, they are the only Inn here in Davao does not allowed instant spouses ( you know what I mean here). Upon entering, you will see a sign from their front desk, "INSTANT SPOUSE NOT ALLOWED".

While waiting, you can lounge and/or dine-in at their restaurant at AVENIDA. (click HERE)
