Had a Bad Fall!

I had a bad fall last Sunday after our lunch at a fastfood restaurant few blocks from our church. We were leisurely walking back to our church when I suddenly lost my steps and fall on my left side suddenly. My right ankle was the most injured part with dislocated veins which caused my feet to be swollen after many hours. My left knee suffered bruises and my skin were scraped out which gave me pain until now. My right arm and shoulders up to my nape suffered the most because it’s where I forced my whole body to lean on. I was just lucky that the palm of my left hand which turned red recovered after two hours. I had an hour of therapy from my Mom when we arrived home after 6 hours. It was so painful that I nearly screamed my pain; imagine having your veins in your ankle dislocated?

Well I’m beginning to feel alright now except for just little pains in my back and knee. I had to work even I’m sick but just to visit some blogs, read my emails and finish some due tasks, not enough time to bid and get more assignments. Well I guess I should be starting my blogging holiday mode now, don’t you think?

Water Therapy

I’ve learned from my Mom that there are sickness that can be healed by water therapy and we have a book confirming that so when we want to resort to natural healing of minor sickness we apply water therapy. Even if you take medication for fever, colds, cough and some other sickness it also helps a lot if you drink plenty of water. It applies not only to sickness but for someone like me who want to lose excess pound, instead of drinking powdered juices or coffee we should drink water instead and it’s even better if it’s not too cold. Well it seems hard at first but very beneficial to our body if we make it a habit. Just make sure that the water that you drink or you use for therapy is a good, clean and purified water or it’s filtered from contaminants by something like a gswf filter because it’s very important to know that the water we’re drinking is safe and clean for a healthier you.

:Looking at the Sky on Friday #54

Click the image to see larger view

This is a shot near to my entry last week at the top of the 4-storey residential and commercial building in front of the building where we rent our church venue. It's easier to shoot some sky photos across the building as it's a beautiful frontage of the clouds. The building looks majestic with the clouds almost touching the top. Nice that it's higher than the wires so there's no obstruction for me.

Happy sky watching!Visit more of beautiful sky photos here!

When your Work Always Change Location

My friend is complaining about her rental fee in her current apartment because at the start of the coming year it will increase its monthly rent. It’s hard to budget your money if all basic necessities like food and shelter increases while your salary don’t move a bit. I told my friend that she should think of having her own house instead of spending her money on renting apartment which she can’t own even if she’ll rent for many years. Her only problem with buying her own house is the nature of her job which changes work location after some years.

It’s hard to build a house and leave it when your work transfer you to new location. I told her she should have a mobile home just like manufactured homes I’ve seen online which she can easily transfer when she want to move to a different place. It looks like a regular house also and it has various models and prices.

Moving On

We’re happy now that we’ve moved on from the damages caused by the big flood few months ago. Our appliances were in good working condition except for some furniture that we gave up due to extreme damage. We still have almost all of them and we just have to buy a new sofa for our main living room. We need a big sized living room design furniture for that room as it’s our main area for accepting visitors. We’re still looking for quality but not so expensive furniture and I know DH will take care of that as he’s an expert when it comes to appliances and furniture as his work for 17 years is related to that.

Funny Bumper Stickers

We’re thinking of buying another car as we’re not so sure if our old one will be restored to its original condition after the repair. It was very much affected by the big flood that hit the metropolis and its deep submersion caused much damage. Anyway we can’t afford a new car so we’re looking for pre-owned cars. It doesn’t matter if it’s not a new model as long it will serve the purpose of getting us to church every Sunday, every midweek bible study and on our out-of-town ministry and camp meetings. Since we’re searching around and I find it quite interesting to look around cars of different types and models especially those with unique bumper stickers, usually the customized one which you can’t see on other cars. I know having one of these stickers make the car unique in its own way.

Many cars I happen to see have car accessories that will really caught your attention but I had a great time viewing some unique accessories online. I also had a good laugh when I found funny bumper stickers which will certainly turn your smile to laughter. They’re just samples but I find it so funny although I know some of the words there are true. I’m thinking now if I will order something of that kind and what design could I possibly put in my customized bumper stickers.

My New Baby!

No I'm not having another baby 'coz Josh is my certified youngest kid. I just want to blog here about my new blog which I started three months ago. This is what's keeping me busy even at nights. I can say that it's hard to start another blog because you'll have to exert extra effort, plenty of time and you'll have to think of new ideas. When I first had my domain blog added to my two bravejournals I told myself that I can't maintain additional blog as I'm too busy to update them all. But that was history as after Moments of My Life I added My Crossroads after 10 months and then added Beyond Horizons last July this year.

Now my new baby is Wahm's Cozy Corner, my blog about women's interest. There I talk about facilitating shopping, technology, various tips and more. It's entirely different from my other blogs except that I get to mention once in awhile my kids, well I can't help it! Visit my new blog and be my guest! Don't forget to leave your comments :-) Thanks!

Which One is Right for Me?

Two weeks from now I’ll be celebrating my birthday and I’m not decided on what I’ll buy for myself. When I’m just working in office I never buy myself expensive gifts as I try to spend most of my Christmas bonus on gifts for my loved ones, things and toys for my kids and home appliances. But since I entered the world of blogging and started earning online I compensate all my hard works on keeping my blog maintained by buying what I want most for the year. I’m just simple in many ways and I don’t buy super expensive branded bags. If I have one or two of those branded things it usually come to me as a gift and I appreciate it, it’s just that I don’t want to spend my hard-earned money on it. People are different and so are women.

On my first months of earning money through my sites I rewarded myself with a new gas range because I love cooking and baking. On the second year I bought myself my personal digital camera which I used for joining photo meme and which became my favorite companion everywhere I go. This year I planned to buy myself laptop so I can use it anywhere around the house or I can carry it along. When my brother searched around for the latest branded netbooks in my friend’s electronic gadgets’ brochures I began to think what’s the ideal for me, a lappy or a netbook. Anyway as I plan to buy it after the holiday season I still have time to think it over.

Blogging Overtime

Wow! I’m still awake this time at dawn, my online friends has signed off one by one and knowing that all of them were asleep makes me feel more sleepy too! I just finished half of my due tasks on my other blogs and I need a real willpower to go on and finish them all. I’m just worried that if I reached 4am I’ll only have less than an hour to sleep as I’ll be cooking for my girls before 5am. I’m happy that at least I have my mojo now, thoughts and ideas are flowing easily from my mind that I can easily write any topic on my list. I just need some patience and determination to meet my goal.

I didn’t prepared coffee as sometimes it gets me to sleep, strange but true! I only drink cold water when I think I can’t hold on anymore. Anyway I’ve had lots of practice when I was still working in consultancy firm which forced us to work on three consecutive overnights when we’re beating deadlines. I’m working at home now but the same strategy I used in my previous jobs on overnights still works for me.

Shopping for Baby Things

I’m so happy that my niece gave birth to a healthy baby girl last October. A new baby is a delightful addition in the family and it brings so much joy and happiness to every home. You know I feel that there’s a certain magic that baby brings. They truly add some fun and excitement and just to hear their little cries and giggles makes them so funny to me. Well baby girl Iya I’m referring to is a cry baby and when she visited us she doesn’t want her grannies to carry her but only me. I had to leave my online tasks to attend to her. I saw that my niece takes special care of her things especially her infant clothes which looks very cute to me. Since she’s a girl her clothes are all pink and white in color and they’ve chosen kitty designs.

The couple carefully chosen Iya’s bottles, clothes & shoes, toiletries and nursery furniture when she was about to be delivered and all things were ready when she was born. They’ve chosen a crib that’s fairy small to fit with their house size and they’ve added a swing for her. They do all of these things for their little darling in the house. I can see my niece sometimes get exhausted with the new responsibility of a mother but when she looks at the little angel she’s holding she will smile and feels happy enough.

It’s sometimes tedious to prepare everything for your baby especially shopping when you’re pregnant. It was easier now to choose and buy the things for your little one like babies and toddlers’ things through online shopping at Shopwiki. With this kind of shopping you can buy the things that you want in the comfort of you own house. No need to fall in line to pay, no need to walk around several stores just to pick your needed items. Shopwiki has all the specific stores that sells baby and toddler items. It makes shopping easier!
