Planning to Study Again

DH is planning to study again after several years of working, actually he’s already reached the minimum years for an employee to have a pension in SSS. We both reached the 120 months minimum pension requirements so we’ll just have to wait until we’re 60 and old. But I’m still planning to continue it even as self-employed individual only. Since Monday we’re searching for schools that he’ll enroll to. We want a school near our place because he needs to be close to operating our planned business.

He has one or two courses in mind and we’re looking for schools with specialties on those particular courses. There are actually many schools specializing in engineering, technology, business and more like cosmetology school in Texas which is for those who want to be skilled in that field. I hope that we can arrange everything so he can enroll this coming school year. He’s really very enthusiastic about it and I pray he’ll be able to study again.

Trendy and Stylish Maternity Clothes

Being pregnant is one of the things that you should be proud of because in your womb you are blessed with a little angel. I experienced the happy feeling of carrying my baby inside my womb and with three little angels that God has given me and my hubby I felt fulfilled and blessed. It’s a wonderful feeling that you can’t really express in words but its there in your heart. I remember how I take care of myself in every move and every second of my life just to protect the baby inside me.

There are many stages of pregnancies and alongside with it is choosing nice and comfortable maternity clothes all throughout your pregnancy period. For the working Moms like me then I must have some trendy and stylish maternity dresses to use for special occasions and gathering. I’ve seen some of my colleagues tries different kinds of maternity clothes that will look not just pretty but stylish as well.

Keep Our Air Clean and Purified

We need air to breathe and in our daily living we need clean air and environment for maintaining our health. I’ve heard so many stories of air pollution and some even took it in their heart to solve the problem but for me it should start at home. In the place we’re living in we can’t hide the fact that the air is not so clean because of cars, thrash and many other factors that simply pollutes the air we’re breathing in.

But you’ll be surprised that our indoor environment is more polluted than the air outside our house. We can’t really see those dust and bacteria but it’s there lurking around the place we’re living in. These microscopic soot-like particles will be trapped in our surface and before we knew it these will cause the growth of bacteria that will cause sickness in our house. I learned that this can results to allergies, asthma and other major diseases in the heart and lungs.

So before it happens in your household better equip yourself with air purifiers that will clean the indoor air in your house. It’s now a necessity to own at least one home air purifier for your family’s healthy being. If our family’s welfare is in danger we should make every step to safeguard them from dangers. Well if you’re going to ask me what kind of purifier I would choose I will most likely prefer the hepa air purifier over the ionic type because the latter was found to emit ozone and this is a harmful gas that would affect our lung tissues. HEPA air purifier has a better and efficient filter to manage allergens and harmful particles that can cause the growth of bacteria.

We should always keep in mind to choose the products that will ensure safety for our family. And for keeping our environment clean we should start it in our home by throwing our thrash in the right place and by avoiding burning them in our backyard. Our environment needs proper care now as it has been abused by many people. We should take care of the remaining resources we have. It’s God’s gift to mankind.

Workaholic Me

I’ve almost suffered from too much exposure to heat as I was down with mild chest pain and together with my current back pain I have no choice but to rest earlier. So I’m finishing all my due tasks so I can rest without worries. Being a workaholic like me isn’t easy because even if I’m resting I’m thinking of my work and when I resigned from corporate office I still have the same habit even if I’m working at home. Like now my head is aching and I feel a little dizzy and still I’m working up to my last thinking capacity. My Mom is urging me to rest now but I’m asking for more minutes. I still want to write more but my head is resisting now. I’d better get some sleep now as I’ve slept at dawn the other day. Be back tomorrow.

We only gave giveaways or small keepsakes for all of them, something to remember our wedding as years pass through. Well it’s nice to hear that marrying couples can now order beautiful keepsakes and gifts online.

It’s always been our dream to have our children excel in their class and have good grades. Well this can’t be achieved by just wishing because excellence or being good in school requires the child’s patience, abilities, skills and parents’ proper supervision.

A refreshing sight to see. This is my shot of the coconut plantation with beautiful sky and clouds as its majestical background. This is one of my shots at Villa Dominga Forest Resort and I can say it's nice skywatching there because there are no obstruction there - no cables, no wires and no passersby :-). It's Friday again and I'm greeting my friends at Latsof because I didn't participated last week. I was in summer camp meeting from Thursday to Friday last week with my family and church brethren.

Intermittent Connection

For the past two weeks we’re having some difficulty in our internet connection thus I’m having a hard time scheduling my kids’ usage in my PC because of my online tasks. I can’t let them use my PC because I have to maximize my time whenever the internet is in good condition. This week I had uninterrupted connection when I’m connected directly to my broadband without the router. I checked my Linksys router for any technical damage but it’s still in perfect condition. Almost everyday our internet fails to give us perfect connection in the morning or at midnight if I’m connected to router and it’s giving me headache as my sister and kids can’t go online. They will have to wait for me to stop or rest before they can use the net.

My friend is also having intermittent connection in her home broadband and she has to go to her internet café located in other area in order to use internet. What’s happening with some internet these days? I also noticed some unscheduled power interruption these past few days. Could it be a premonition of the coming not so peaceful activity next month? Hope not.

TC - Small Animals - Ducks

Thursday Challenge

for fun and learning

"SMALL ANIMALS" (Pets, Insects, Birds,...)

Lazily sitting on the grassWalking and looking for something :-)

Got these four ducks for my entry this week. I've noticed these 4 ducks outside the kitchen of our quarters in our summer camp fellowship. They always go in four, they sit together, they walk together and never missing one duck when they go. They seem to be friends as they never leave each other. The four ducks stayed together the whole day and it made me take a shot on them.

Got another entry here! For more 'small animals' themed photos click the title badge!
