Camp Meeting Vehicle

We’re running out of time regarding our car which should be repaired before our camp meeting next month. Because of the high demand of mechanics here in our place our schedule with my cousin’s mechanic was cancelled. He told us he can’t repair the car anymore as he’s fully booked until December. Now that left us with no choice but to bring it to mechanic shop.

As for our long travel next month we will just use my brother’s other car which is actually much bigger and just right for our baggage. It can accommodate up to seven passengers and one driver with a spacious area for all our things. As this car was bought two months ago I’m not sure of its insurance status. Anyway I’ll only check some insurance quotes for it to be ready if ever its insurance is due for renewal. We wouldn’t want to travel without the car being insured.

My Cute Visitor

Whew! Got a cutie visitor today – my niece daughter 1 month old baby Sofia fondly called as IYA. Her Mom entrusted her to us for more than 2 hours before her checkup with her doctor. She has two grannies to look after her my Mom and my Auntie but when she cries she only stop when it’s me who will carry her, funny baby! My Mom told the others that nobody can make me get off my chair from blogging but when Iya cries I stand up as fast as I can and embrace her. She doesn’t want anyone to carry her but me. Oh dear with all my due tasks today I’m lucky that I finished more than half of it before Iya made it obvious that she only wants me to cuddle her. Anyway it’s worth it as she’s so cute, soft and smells like milk hmm. I can still smell her on my shirt. Lovely!

I Just Love Fountains!

I’m very fond of looking at different types of fountains. I can spend a whole day of just gazing through it while having some books on the side. When we travel we usually stop or slow down our car when we pass by beautiful fountains. My kids love it too!

When Josh and I went to an amusement park in their educational tour I stayed some time around the fountain and took some beautiful shots of it for my photo stocks. With the huge fountain they have I wonder what kind of pond pumps they used to power it. I hope they’re easy to maintain because if not their fountains wouldn’t be as beautiful as it is! Hmm I just love fountains, makes me dreamy in a way!

Feeling Healthy

I feel much better now with my health as I don’t feel so heavy with my weight. I can do some exercises in the morning and I don’t feel anything wrong with breathing. You see last month I always had chills in the night and sometimes I feel something in my chest. I figured that the chills have something to do with work overtime and daily stress on fitting into my time schedule and the chest pain came from being overweight. It’s in my body system that I reached a certain level of excess weight I feel something in my chest but when I lose some pounds I feel normal again.

Maybe I wasn’t really meant for obesity so I should watch my weight from now on or I’ll be sick again. I’m glad that now I don’t have to take appetite suppressant because I can just eat half a cup of rice and vegetable and I’m satisfied. I disciplined myself to stay away from too much fat and carbo intake because it’s really a hazard on health.

Pushcart Educator Won the CNN Hero of the Year

I was so happy last Sunday night when I heard and watched the news announcing the CNN Hero of the Year. I voted for our very own Efren Peñaflorida, the pushcart educator from the Philippines and I have posted it in my other blog for anyone who wants to cast their vote on any of the top ten CC heroes. I admired his advocate for educating the less fortunate children on the streets and slums which have robbed of precious education because of poverty.

My very own Mom was a retired teacher and she shares the same passion of educating the non-reader children neighbours in our place. For me it’s one of the best awards given to individuals. Now that Efren Peñaflorida won there’s a great hope that this project of Efren will flourish into more fruitful endeavors. Please see this touching speech of Efren from CNN.

Bro’s New Car

Recently my brother bought a car and he’s been taking good care of it. He has another car which is a lot expensive than the new one but he decided to sell it and just keep the new one which is more flexible for his lifestyle. He’s a contractor and he finds it very useful to have a much bigger car than the one he’s using previously. Anyway before he sells his previous car he checked the insurance quote given to him by his friend because his car’s insurance will lapse in a month. He wouldn’t want the would-be buyer to have the car without insurance. He wants everything in order before he finally endorses it to the new owner.

Coupon Codes for Free

For us who love shopping but don’t want to spend much money on the not-so-basic necessities in our house we always look for big sale, best deals and discounts. Having discounts saves us money and it feels good to get a good bargain especially when you really want the item for your family. It’s better if you will find coupon codes to use as discounts for the things you want to buy online.

I was looking at Babies R Us for baby things and accessories on sale and I found some babies r us coupon codes, discounts, offers and special deals for free. I’ll have to buy something for the babies here in our compound and I’m glad to find some good deals. Just have to take advantage of those free coupons to make the most of my money.

Gen's Dental Checkup

Gen had her dental checkup for the last two Saturdays but still her tooth was not extracted as I asked her dentist to check if we can still save it. She had general dental cleaning with fluoride and has already finished all the light cure fillins she needed. When we came back after a week to see if we can save her tooth her dentist informed us that it can’t be restored as it didn’t reacted to the prescribed antibacterial.

Since Gen has a slight cough on that day we rescheduled her extraction appointment as she needs to be in good condition when her tooth will be extracted. It’s going to be her first time so the dentist thought that we should prepare Gen for it. Anyway she was told that she has very nice and healthy set of teeth and since it’s permanent already she should take good care of it.

All-Inclusive Vacation at Breezes Resort

Everyone loves vacation because it’s a time of relaxation and getting away from all the stress, pressures and daily routines of life. Once in a while we should give ourselves a break from the everyday chores of life to keep us in good condition physically and emotionally. All work and no vacation make a tired body so we should put importance on giving rest to our weary mind and body. I myself hadn’t had a vacation for years now, well if you will not count the three day fellowship in Tagaytay City twice a year. Actually for me that will count as we enjoy being there away from the bustling city of urban areas. Even though we spent camp meeting there we were relaxed and rested. It’s like recharging our mind and body for the coming challenges of life.

It would be more relaxing if we really spent some days or weeks off our routine work and booked an all inclusive resort just for our family vacation. I know Breezes Resort offers everything from comfortable accommodations to beach resorts up to fine dining and sports activities. I learned this from my SIL who loves going to a vacation by the beach and just recently planning to have a vacation where she and her family can enjoy entertainment, fine dining, some water sports and comfortable accommodations somewhere in the blue waters and rich landscapes of Caribbean resorts. She’s been working so hard that a month of relaxation in a beautiful beach resort can really do her good. She saved some money for it and she want to spend it wisely.

I would really love to do that also and spend my vacation in the old-fashioned Jamaica Island. I want my vacation to be different this time with not just the beautiful beach resort and scenic view but I would also love the Jamaica all inclusive vacations where they offer delicious cuisine which is good for those who love to taste different menus of different places. For sporty person like me I know I can indulge on several sports there. It’s nice to spend early morning by the beach just before the sun shines and feel the breeze of wind on my air. Oh my I’m getting the feel of the vacation already! Now you can imagine how good to have a Breezes Resort vacation and when you want it for yourself just visit their site and booked your all inclusive package.
