Wow I just received more blessings tonight and so are my online friends. We’re all excited about it and tweets were just as excited as we are. For bloggers like us who are doing some online job the blessings are in the form of opportunities and assignments. Some says that when it rains it pours and it’s exactly what I felt now because I also have some opportunity blessings early in the morning. It’s such a blessed day!

Maintaining a Healthy Body

It takes a lot of discipline and self-control to maintain a healthy diet. It’s actually easier to succumb to your longings than to start a meal plan of purely healthy meals consisting vegetables, fruits and fish. Well I had the will to do this kind of diet last year and it paid off as I lost some pounds. But I stopped more than two months ago because I can’t prepare a different meal for me due to busy schedule. I was again faced with the problem of excessive pounds from working too tight during night time. So for now I have to get back to my old regimen of eating less fatty foods and more of fibrous healthy foods.

That’s my resolution if I want to get back in shape. I still have to work out my problem with my tummy. Well for my friend living in US for quite some time the only solution she know is the vaser liposuction in Chicago which is perfect for those who want to remove excess pounds in the problem areas like tummy, thighs, abdomen and many more. They’re using a new advanced technique in surgery that can reduce your fat without affecting the important parts of our bodies. It’s recommended for people with healthy lifestyle who just can’t get rid of fat in some areas of their bodies.

:MYM - Hiding and Playing

Gotcha! I caught Ryza in the act here as she's trying to hide from her father. Her father was following her every turns she goes and was telling her to stop in one place. On the next picture she thought she finally escaped from him but I saw his father hiding from her on the side of the car. Funny father and child! She's one and only anyway! Ryza is my godchild, she's a granddaughter of our Pastor in the church. She's just one year old here last summer camp meeting!

Preparing Funds for Car Repair

We’re happy that finally the car mechanic that we’re waiting for can now give his time on our car and possibly he can make it run in a few weeks time. We just have to prepare our funds for our car repair and eventually get a cheap car insurance like that of estatecarinsure so we can still have budget for other miscellaneous needs of our vehicle.

Even if we can use my brother’s pickup every time we have a need for transport it’s still better if we’re using our own as we don’t have to pick it up early in the morning and return it at night. Sometimes DH was too exhausted that he wanted to rest immediately after driving a long mile. Well anyway with the car’s repair and my kids’ graduation and transfer to bigger schools I think we should work harder to save some more funds for these expenses.

Should Have Break Time Also

I’m too engrossed in what I’m doing that I can’t feel the pang of hunger in my stomach. It’s just when my Mom reminded me that I still haven’t eaten my lunch that I was brought back to real life. I was always like that when I’m writing lengthy article. I feel as if I was in the article too lol! Since my little boy and Mom had eaten the brownies that I bought in the morning they opt to wait for me as they still full and satisfied with what they’ve eaten.

When I learned that they’ll wait for me I left my work and had my lunch. I’m still thinking of my article and was planning to go back as soon as I’m finished with my lunch when my Auntie arrived. Oh well that finished my state of reverie and brought me back to reality that I should also stop and have my break time from writing.

Beautiful Mailboxes for Your Homes

I’m so happy today even if it’s Monday. I usually have this thing about Monday, the one I used to have when I’m still working in office. They call it Manic Monday and I call it Monday sickness. Whatever it is I’m so glad that I’m beginning to love Monday. This day brings happiness to me as the sun shines so brightly but not as hot as the other week maybe because of the rain last week. That one day rain brought so much benefit to areas with super dry lands. Anyway what really makes us happy? It’s in knowing that a lot of people love us whoever, whatever and whenever. I just checked my mail boxes and found out that the letter my cousin is waiting for has finally arrived. She used to live with us so she decided not to change her address as it might not reach her so fast when she put her provincial address.

Anyway I’ve already sent a text message and she replied that she’ll drop by next week to get her important letter. She really needs them for her safekeeping. Communication is really very important in a one’s life and letters are one important form of communication. My Mom always tells me that a single letter can make an angry fellow to relax, a sick man well and a lonely man happy. Sometimes it can also stop or delay war. Such powerful tool to communicate. Even there’s email now which can send letters in minutes I still love the good old idea of having Residential Mailboxes because I love receiving handwritten letters and it will be protected if you have mailbox in your home.

They can also add beauty to our front yard if we took extra effort in choosing the right style, color and quality.

Manic Monday #203

How did you decide to live where you do? The place we're living right now is the place where my father and his ancestors lived ever since. Our family's root is here and my Mom agreed to my father to move here from my Mom's provincial hometown because my father's work was herein his town. Since my Mom was a teacher then she can continue her career anywhere she decided to live. Ours is a nice town as it's the nearest town to city, we're still geographically located in the province but we're like a city with easy and near access to super malls, good schools, colleges and everything we need.

Do you like risks, or do you avoid them? What major risks have you taken in your life? I'm a careful planner and if I can avoid big risks I'll try to avoid them but sometimes it's part of our life and we should be able to experience taking risks once in a blue moon. The major risks I've taken in my life are getting married, leaving my 16-year corporate job and working at home doing online freelance writing. Care to know the results of my risks? I'm perfectly happy with all the risks I've taken in my life because before I take any risk I consult God and pray for His guidance and signs.

If you had to choose, which could you live without: TV, the internet, a telephone or friends? I need friends to get me through life, friends can't be bought or replaced with expensive things. I can't work without internet because I have an online writing/paid blogging job besides I can do all communications through internet because there's facebook, instant messaging, chat rooms, Pc to phone call conversation and emails. So that leave me to choose between TV and telephone. I think I'll choose television because it will entertain me and watching tv with my family is a kind of family bonding too..... So that leave telephone because I can still contact my friends through net :-) clever lol!

What Part of Fairy Tale Are You?

I'm very fond of watching and reading different stories of fairy tales when I was a child. I remembered most of the stories until now and I share it with my three kids. It was fun reading and storytelling on fiction stories because you'll see the excitement and happy smiles of the children when you tell them fairy tale stories. Anyway I found below test online, feel free to do it as well!

You Are the Fairy

You are charming, cheerful, and a little bit magical. You make other people's lives better.
You are a bit eccentric at times, but you truly care about people in your own way.

You are hyper and restless. It drives you crazy to sit still, and you are usually the first to leave any event.
You are unpredictable and flighty. No one can guess what you'll be up to next ... or where you'll be!

Window Films for Your Home

The sun’s heat these days can really cause sudden attack of hypertension and some skin diseases but I’ve heard that we should protect ourselves now from prevailing heat wave stroke that caused confinement to some people in the hospital. Actually upon hearing the news on television last Thursday I suddenly felt dizzy from going out in the sun the whole day. I got many errands and commitments that day that I found myself neglecting my protection from sun. I was just glad that I was at home already when I felt sick and in pain.

I’m thinking about it now again as the sun’s glare kept on reaching our windows at the terrace. The curtains there is made of silk and the rays of sun can easily get through. I appreciate it on cold days but on these summer days I’m thinking if I could get blinds for the windows. If only I could get some of those window tinting los angeles products for my house it would be very effective. I heard many residential and corporate offices are now using these window films because they have proven its versatility when it comes to UV protection, security from theft and safety from accidents, earthquakes and some other natural disasters.

With the use of window film los angeles in your residences you will not only get UV protection but a lot of savings for cooling costs too because they reduce the sun’s glare and 99% of the harmful UV rays. Besides, your precious furniture and interiors would be protected too from being worn out easily. Its effectiveness can extend up to corporate buildings, to your car and to your loved ones.

Help Your Child Live a Normal Life

Our five senses are very important in our lives. We should be able to make use of our senses in sight, smell, hearing, taste and touch in order to cope with learning and living a normal life. If a person lacks one of these senses she will need to be treated or undergo therapy to at least be as normal as possible. One of these senses that seem to lack in few children is the sense of hearing. It’s unfortunate to lose hearing because through this important sense we learn to communicate languages, enjoy the arts of music, develop our language and enjoy the beautiful sounds of nature.

When I saw people suffering from hearing loss I felt their difficult experience as I have a cousin back in our province who suffered hearing loss since birth which led her into speech difficulties. It’s a difficult situation for her and her family helped her live with her incapacity and supported her all the way. If only Cochlear Implants is available those days she would have lived a normal life. Now that technology has advanced itself in medicine many disabilities were given treatment and I’m so glad about it because disable people will have the chance to live a good and normal life.

With the help of MED-EL Cochlear Implant system there is a renewed hope for children and adults suffering from hearing loss. It’s a combined product output from the latest innovation in hearing science and modern technology to give way for coming up with the perfect solutions to those cases with hearing impairment.

Cochlear Implant Surgery will greatly help those who have severe to profound hearing problems to understand what people are saying, improve their speech, listen to music and communicate with people. Communication is very important in our daily existence and with it you can learn, have friends and understand the people around you. This solution is not for everyone so if you have a family member that suffers from hearing loss consult their doctor first to see if they’re qualified for cochlear implants.
