The 2010 Acura TSX

A lot of car companies and manufacturers suffered from the recent economic and global crisis and their business was greatly affected. Some of them didn’t pursue in their fields and stopped operation. I’m glad that my sister’s company and their suppliers of beautiful cars have somehow managed to maintain their financial stability and managed to survive because demand for new cars has not stopped until now. Some companies have no other choice but to close down to stop financial difficulties in the end. Despite the crisis that’s enveloping many countries now many people still look and search for the newest model of their favorite cars because to some people collecting different cars has became a hobby .

Well for those who really want they could visit some sites where they can read reviews of chosen cars like Honda’s acura tsx which is a sporty front-wheel compact sedan suited for the younger clients because of the car’s high tech look and perky performance. With its cool high-tech features, quiet refined interior and power train your money is all worth it when you buy this car. It also comes with standard safety gear which includes anti-lock brakes and curtain airbags. Btw you can easily hook up your favorite MP3 player here and it has a Bluetooth where you can send anything you like.

Prenatal Vitamins

I feel like getting back to my bed now as I don’t feel good staying late. I just recovered from back pains and from my fall last month and I can’t afford to be sick again as my work is affected. I’m thinking if I should go to my doctor and ask for advice on what vitamins should I take for my strength that would not make my appetite bigger. I want to be healthy but I don’t want to be over weight.

I’m not much so keen on taking vitamins because I’m more adapted to natural ones like fruits and the only vitamins that I took was when I was pregnant. Pregnant mothers should take prenatal vitamin to get enough nutrients for them and their babies inside the womb. It’s a kind of supplement that’s perfect and made only for the mother and babies. Guess I’ve passed by this stage already, I’m happy with my 2 daughters and son.

Working at Home

It’s getting late again and I know I should be stopping now because as per doctor’s advice I should refrain from working too late at night to restore my strength again. I guess I can’t help it once or twice a week especially if I have too many tasks on due. With the current economic crisis now you’re lucky if you have a stable job, some business that has enough earnings or if you have online job like me. It’s really comfortable to work in your own home and it’s like hitting two birds in one stone and that’s earning good income while taking care of the kids. Just the thought of not having a helper now made me smile because I don’t have to allot funds for them. These days every little expense should be taken in consideration and before indulging in some things we should be wiser in our spending ways.

Cleansing Diet

I’ve been reading books and glad that I’ve found some really good tips on losing some excess pounds through exercise, healthy foods and proper diet. I want to start a cleansing diet but afraid that it might be too soon for me. I know I should limit my intake of food first before diving into cleansing diet to train my stomach into taking lesser foods.

Cleansing foods are really good not only to remove excess pounds but to cleanse our system as well. I’d like to try this before I heed to my friend’s advice of taking some fat burners to eliminate some pounds immediately. I’ve been reading diet reviews like hydroxycut review and I think they’re not for me as I’m accustomed to having natural diet plan. I’ll try to remove pork meat in my regular food plan and replace it with fish and veggies.

School Days Reminisce

I was visited by my old friend in school and it’s been years since we’ve seen each other. School day stories were endless and look as if one day is not enough for us to recover from missing each other. She’s still working in accounting firm and was shocked to hear that I’ve been employed to do accounting works as well. She knows that my profession is Computer Engineering and she laughed at my stories of how I managed to work in accounting department with no formal education on it. Anyway it’s really a good-old-days’ chat but she didn’t finished the whole afternoon with me as she’s having some difficulty in her sitting position and she forgot that she has a doctor schedule for treatment for hemorrhoid. So that’s the reason also of her painful feeling but she said this doctor she had an appointment with is a good one and guarantees a good treatment. She’s promised to return again as soon as possible.

Stop Vices and Start a Healthier Life

I’ve worked in a building where there are many call centers renting the place. It was the owner’s priority to have tenants with business like that. So I get to see some of the ways of their employees and I noticed that their employees go out of the office every break time just to have some smoking session at the ground floor outside the entrance foyer. It’s in their system that every time they took a break it would be for smoking one or two sticks. Every time I see them I’m very conscious of what might happen to their health if they continue living like that. Smoking is very dangerous to health and when you started early in your life smoking there’s a big possibility of having lung cancer when they grow old. Sometimes sickness comes early in life if the person’s body is not strong.

If they only knew that every single cigarette and alcoholic drinks that we inhale, smoke or take into our body decreases our life span and make us vulnerable to deadly sickness. Worst thing is they’re not the only affected people as anyone who inhale or smells the smoke can also be a candidate for lung sickness or disease. Non-smokers developed lung cancer if they’re exposed to smokers so people who smoke endanger not just their lives but the lives of other people as well. I hate to think that many people could be sick for someone’s vices.

It’s really better if people start to live a healthier life as it’s not only painful to be sick but costs considerable amount of money also. Same with having heart problems as this sickness is a traitor; you’ll never know when it will hit you. Cardiac arrest is frequently the causes of many deaths among people past the age of fifty but there’s a solution for this as early detection could save them their lives. With CVTSA’s provision of efficient and reliable treatment to cardiac patients there are bid chances of surviving. They performed cardiac surgery through experienced cardiac surgeons and nurse which results to fast recovery of cardiac patients. There are many operations performed successfully by them and these include lung transplant, heart transplant, robotic surgery and other related cases. In view of all these things to avoid deadly sickness we should all try to live healthy, eat the right kind of foods, have exercise and avoid vices.

Noticeable Changes

I’m beginning to see some changes in my eldest daughter Ruth since she reached 12 years of age. The first one is her height which is becoming very noticeable among her friends and I’m also receiving some remarks from other mothers that she’ll soon be taller than I am. That’s a good one because I stand almost 5’4” so she must be growing up to be a tall lady. Her body started to have shapes and she’s not so thin anymore because she has very good appetite on food now. She loves to cook and try to eat varieties of food including vegetables. She’s now learning how to do her hair in more ways than the usual ponytails and headbands.

Now I’m teaching her how to care for her skin especially on her face so she’ll not be worrying in the future for acne medication. I know that acne is part of growing up but if you learn early in life how to prevent it you’ll be spared of acne problems. I didn’t experienced so much problems in my face when I was in my teens that’s why I’m teaching her prevention of it. I believe that an ounce of prevention is better than a pound of cure.

:Looking at the Sky on Friday #59

Click the image to see larger view

This shot is from the side of a fourth storey building and the view is across a national highway. What attracted me is the solid formation of the clouds creating a circular motion as if they're going to drop down anytime. A little bit scary if it's stormy day but since it's late afternoon it's understood that the color of the sky is only due to the start of sunset! I will never cease to wonder at the sky, i just love sky watching!

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

Safe and Sound!

Just returned to work after finishing so many offline tasks and duties. I’m still tired from yesterday’s fire in the neighborhood and I can’t seem to end my heartful thanks to God for keeping us safe from this disastrous fire. The place still smells smoky and there are still many ashes in the air. Faith and prayers can really move mountains, but this time it’s not mountain but fire and God stopped the fire before it reaches our house. Electricity was cut off until 5pm and I was in a real hurry because it’s also my bible study day and I didn’t want to miss it. A neighbor taking up nursing was asking me to help her in her assignment on diseases and cure like heart disease transplant, digestive problems, herpes simplex treatment, and many more. Actually I have a compilation on that subject as I used to do some research work for my SIL and I’ll just lend it to her.
