Gardening...Please be Good

I love nature, green makes me smile! I grew up in a family who loves nature, plants in particular. The garden in my parents' house is still maintained and it has been more than 30 years. The whole family loves gardening. I remember taking turns with my sibling caring for our plants. We each had our assignment to do. I think our love for plants came from our Dad. He loves gardening a lot and he is a green thumb. My other elder sister took after him. She used to maintain a garden store in the US and it was doing pretty well. Now she does backyard gardening and you will be impressed when you see her garden. She just knows how to fix it. I will need to take a lesson or two from her so that I will be successful in my gardening too. I don't know, but I don't think I am a green thumb. Plants die on me, probably the condition at home too because we don't really have a backyard to begin with. I just do potted gardening. It's a good thing everything is readily available in the world wide web and I found this gardening tips which I can make use when I again attempt to do it.

Snuggie for my Princess

It finally arrived! I asked my sisters to get it for me because no one is selling it here. I know, and I understand that. You might wonder why my daughter likes it. She feels cold all the time. She wears a hoodie when she goes to sleep, weird, right? But that's how she is. Anyway she'll be using that snuggie whenever we go on road trips. Just between you and me, I caught her wearing it while watching telly on a full blast a/c :P

Perfect Tee

I am a jeans and tee person and I am telling you now that I really love it. You won't see me wear dresses that often, but I try my best to shift once in a while. I don't know if I look good when I wear dresses and skirts, but I try to look pretty. I am most comfortable though when I wear a t-shirt. I don't have a particular brand but I see to it that what I buy is the durable one. I am also fond of wearing statement tees like this distro t-shirt I found online. It's a head turner all by itself. I think this is part of the kaos clothing line being sold online. I want to get one for myself, but I don't really know if they ship internationally. I still have to go through their faq to be able to get answers to my questions.

Always Available When You Need it Most

Ever since the husband shifted to e-cig, I always see him looking for rechargeable batteries. I know it's a small thing, but the frequency of his search does not go unnoticed. He even discusses it with me and asks for opinion. I don't know if in your household you use a lot of batteries. In mine I don't want to run out coz it's really frustrating especially if you need it so bad and you don't have a spare one. I've learned my lesson and actually started using rechargeable. It's always within reach if needed.

Shopping Fund

Oh my...this is there reason why I hate going to fashion websites. I always end up salivating on something. Grrrrr...hopefully it won't give me sleepless nights. Haha I can over react sometimes, but that is the most exciting part. Anyway I'm starting to put up a fund for stuff that I like. I will be needing a container to put whatever savings I have for that particular thing that I want. Well it can be an emergency fund too whenever needed. What do you say to this? Ok, let's get started. I saw this easy spirit sandals online and there's this item that I want to have. It sounds silly if I'll be putting up a fund for that, after all it's very affordable. I will find something else to salivate...oh the B bag that I badly want. I know it's gonna take a lifetime to save up for it, but why not, right?

Beautiful Eyes

I was contemplating on having eyelash extension for a while now. I finally did it last week and I like it. It felt heavy on the first few hours, but I got used to it right away. What I'm not used to until now is the fact that I need to be careful when washing my face, otherwise it's going to fall off. Recommended touch up is every two weeks. I need to be more careful if I don't want to go on weekly touch ups which will really be pricey.

I Have a History

I've been reading a lot of stuff lately and I normally do it online. I'm glad that almost everything is readily available with just a few clicks. Health related topics is one of my favorite articles to read. Ok I admit, I am scared of so many things especially when it comes to my well-being and that of my family. Health wise, one can really never be healthy. This is just my opinion so don't kill me, ok? One way or another we find something wrong with our system. It's probably due to our food intake. It's fun to eat so there is a tendency to overlook the kind of food we eat. My family has a history of hypertension so I am definitely a candidate of a rising blood pressure. Now I am looking into this l-arginine for blood pressure , I might consider making this part of my diet. I want to lower the risk of a heart attack or a stroke at least if I can't completely eliminate it. It's prevention on my part. I still have kids to raise and I can afford to die soon. I know I sound crazy but what the heck, I am just taking care of myself. You know what I am happy about now? I learned that prices have reduced tremendously, and this means only one thing, a lot of people can benefit from this.

I Want a Body Pillow!

I want a body pillow so bad. People, you hear me? I want that for my birthday. If someone is generous enough to give it to me even if it's not yet my birthday, then I'd be glad. I just sooooooo want it. Now I am imagining having a good night's rest with this pillow. This is going to be my lullaby since it cradles you in comfort from head to toe. I don't mind paying for it too coz I can't wait 'til my birthday!

Next Project

I just got my Mac Mini and this will be my next project. I need to start saving up for it. Time to think twice about all those unnecessary spendings so that I will be able to purchase this in no time. Now I'm starting to think about the time when I started having an online job, it was awesome. Offers keep coming and in figures I never imagined. Those times are long gone but I still earn online. The difference is that before I can purchase whatever I want in more or less 5 writing jobs, but now it takes a hundred years before I can do so.

Here I Go Again

What is wrong with me? Why do I want to upgrade my mobile phone every so often? Are you the same way too? Sometimes I hate myself, sometimes I don't because when I think of it this is my only indulgence. Anyway here is the htc desire hd I saw online and I really like it. I have a friend who owns one and she says it's simply the best. Now it makes me want to change my current unit, what do you think?

Cool Stuff for Trade Shows

We used to do bridal fairs a couple of years back. I wish I had discovered these Trade show display cases because this can really be put to good use. I just know that this is what we need. We could have saved more space for the people to freely move, yes our booth was always full. I'm not bragging but yeah we had lots of clients when we first started. It's just sad that the husband does not want to do any of this anymore. I think he got tired and wants to try out other stuff. Being the supportive wife (ahem) that I am, I will try and encourage him to do good in whatever new endeavor he wants to go into.

Officially Sick!

I was already a bit sick when we left for Baguio about 4 days ago. We only stayed there for 2 nights and it made me more sick. I thought my cough and colds would go away coz I was already taking meds for it. But lo and behold it got worse that I don't need to buy firecrackers for the New Year. Ewwww I know but what better way to describe my cough but that :D

Anyway, we enjoyed our Baguio trip. It was stress-free. I'd love to do this yearly in fact we already agreed that we'd do it every after Christmas. We don't really get to travel that much as a family so this is pretty much a welcome treat.

We Love Music

I was just talking about how I loved music when I was younger and that I think my kids took that after me. Both of them have made known their desire to learn an instrument or two. They already started and I am just waiting for the next instrument they want to learn. I think I see the daughter more interested in the Yamaha Drums while my boy is pretty much into strings. But I can also see that he wants to play the drums. I wish the husband played even one instrument. It would be a wonderful bonding time with all of us playing an instrument each.

Golf Course GPS

GPS goes to the golf course. Isn't that cool? If you want to have one, maybe you can get hold of the golf gps finder which I heard is one of the best. GPS in itself is already cool and I can't get over the fact that it can be used in a golf game. Wow! Talking about accuracy and all. This will probably give you the edge over other players if you have one. I wonder if every player has this one and if it's even an must have. Sorry I don't know the answer to that since none of us play golf. You can probably tell me, right?

A Hospital Scene

I recently watched this series on television (sorry the title escapes me at the moment)and there's this scene that caught my attention. It was actually a hospital scene and I couldn't help but wonder if we have it. I have not been too many hospitals here but with the 2 hospitals that we often go to, I have not seen them use computer carts. I find it cool and this is probably the reason why I particularly remember that scene. It's so convenient too, with just a few clicks everything can be recorded and retrieved. Anyway, I will let you guys know if we have it here already or vice versa.

Lucky Me!

I love it when F21 goes on sale. This one was not announced though. I didn't have any idea that they were having it. I just happened to meet with N at Megamall and I couldn't let the opportunity of checking F21 pass. I wasn't planning on buying either but how can you resist a double 50% off, right? Yes some items were sold at 50% plus another 50% off when you pay at the counter. Not only that items sold at 50% off get another item, so it's buy 1 take 1. Oh sheeesh, am I making sense? Anyway I got that skirt and a swimwear top for a little over P200 only. What a great deal! I wish they had more items that was on sale though. I know I am asking for too much :P

The Smell of Coffee Wakes Me Up

I used to go to Starbucks a lot for my coffee, but then I realized that it leaves a hole in my pocket. That's when I decide to purchase my own coffee maker. I am happy to say that I am one of the proud owners of these krups coffee makers. It's so easy to use and I can say it's durable too. I had mine for more than 5 years now and it's working just fine. I can say too that it will last another 5 years and even beyond. This is something to look forward to, imagine waking up in the mornings to a house that smells good coffee, simply the best!

The Everyday Scrub

Wow! I see a lot of nurses everyday, not! Relax, it's just that I see a lot of people wearing nursing scrubs. It's no longer confined to nurses this days. I don't have anything against it and I can't blame the spa people for deciding to use those scrubs too, it's comfortable. I myself have used it for sleeping instead of the traditional jammies, like I said it's comfy. So there, that's probably the reason why not only nurses sport the scrubs nowadays. One more thing, have you noticed that it comes in different colors already? Boring white is now out of the question.

I Want an iPhone, Shouts Everyone

With the latest ios update which allows one to use the iMessage (this is similar to BBM), a lot are asking, where can I buy iphone? I can understand why almost all want to get a hold of an iPhone. I was one of them and I am waiting and wanting an upgrade. But I don't think I'll get the current upgrade, I'll just probably wait for iPhone5 to come out. When is that you ask? Real soon, you know how the apple people come out with products. Sometimes I can't catch up anymore. Do you feel the same way?

Let's iMessage

I have another form of communication with my online bff. Online because we still haven't met in person. But even if that is the case, we still treat each other like we are blood sisters. I think I've known her since 2006 or 2007 via blogging. I stumbled upon her site and left a comment. From then on there's no stopping of our friendship. I am so looking forward to meeting her and her family probably next year. Just thinking about it makes me excited!

What Do you Think, Mom?

I find my daughter cute. She's very thoughtful especially to the bf. She inherited that trait from me. I don't know but I think girls are generally thoughtful. Recently she asked for suggestions regarding the gift for boyfriend birthday. She mentioned a few items which she thinks the bf would like. Sometimes I would go, I think that is too expensive, remember you don't have work yet. Yes, I can tell her those things after all we have a very close relationship. Besides what I'm saying is exactly correct. Why spend on things which you can't afford just yet? I think the bf would understand.

Photos Ready to be Shown

I have so much photos of the family to share. It's all stored here in my computer. Question is when can I have the time to upload everything? Just thinking about it makes me go lazy already. But no, photos as intended to be shared. Maybe I should create a slide show of all the wonderful photos I have and post it on Facebook for all my friends and loved ones to see. Yeah, I think I'll do that. I have to limit my game time though and really put effort on putting all these photos together.

Hunting for a Job?

I just learned from the news that more and more people are getting jobless nowadays. Blame it on the economy, some businesses are not making good. My heart goes to those who just lost their jobs especially those ones who have mouths to feed. Anyway, let me share with you in case you get interested. I have learned that there are Desk Clerk Jobs available for you to grab. Why don't you try sending your resume? At this point in time where everyone else is out there job hunting, this is already a great opportunity for you. Who knows, that job is really for you.

Keeping the Dust Away

I have been looking for these plastic shoe boxes for ages already. I know, there are a lot of plastic shoe boxes in the home section of every mall, but then the price is always in consideration. Can you imagine if those shoe boxes were priced at P200 each. No way I can afford to pay for it. Anyway, I found those shoe boxes in SM and was very reasonably priced at P125 for 2. That's because it's buy 1 take 1. I could have gotten more, but that was what (40 boxes) I can afford at that time. I want to buy 20 more boxes and I am hoping that it is still on sale. And I also need some more silica gel to put inside the box to help absorb the moisture.
