School Reservations

I've been struggling with my time now since I got plenty of errands in school. My daughter is graduating from primary school and will transfer in secondary Christian school. I'm arranging reservation for the little boy for his second year in Grade school in LJCS and for the two girls in TUMCS. Both schools sent their forms to confirm our intent to enrol the kids next year to their respective schools. I've already sent the forms back to school Administrator and will come back this summer for enrolment. School will end this month and I'm looking forward for my two-month break from school. Got myself a part-time work in office to help a friend. Anyway I can do some of it online so I'll still be active in blogging.

Safe Travel

I was chatting with my friend abroad and we were talking about some dreams of us which we love to have when we retire from work. Of course for me I love to buy and own a motor home because we’re fond of travelling to faraway provinces and motor home is the only all-around vehicle that would help us in our trip. Considering we have three kids it will be of much use to us because it contains everything we need during and after travel. 

Well it’s not bad dreaming for one, after all it’s free to dream and when I’ll finally be able to buy I’ll make sure I’ll get the best and affordable motorhome insurance so no matter what happened I’ll be at peace that we’re covered with insurance. Anyway I’ll have to work hard before I can own one but I’m super excited at the thought.

Legal Help for Road Accident Victims

Summer is starting now. Yesterday we attended a small church gathering with our brethren. When we travelled back home we encountered so much traffic different from all the other Wednesdays we had. We felt bored and hot from the humid weather and we thought it’s going to be a long traffic ahead but we discovered that an accident on the U-turn slot caused the traffic jam in the area. The careless driver who drove recklessly and hit another car in the middle of the slot caused the heavy traffic. 

I’m sure some passengers were hurt and would demand justice for the accident. I know they will get their lawyer like Austin personal injury lawyer who will help them legally and assist in whatever compensation they should be getting from the case they filed. It’s just fair to have compensation because some people lose their job when accidents hit them. They need the money to start a new life after the ordeal of the accident. So if you’re in the Austin area and you need help about the accident you can contact O’Hanlon, McCollom & Demerath – Personal Injury Lawyers – 808 West Avenue, Austin, TX. 78701 – 512-494-9949

Enrolment Cash from Gold

The current school year is ending now and I’m looking forward to being with my kids all day for two summer months. For college students some don’t want to take a break and they also want to enrol for advance subjects this summer vacation. Well that would mean additional expenses for their family and if you’re one of those whose thinking of extra cash for their summer schooling why not turn your broken, old or scrap gold jewelries into money. This way you’ll have instant cash for gold and it will solve the problem for extra finances for education. Education is an investment and it’s good to give our kids a good education. In the future it will help them get a good-paying job.

:Blue Monday: Little Boy's Fun Day at the Beach

My little boy excitedly posed for me here while playing at the sands.  We've just arrived at the beach and he immediately ran to feel the sands and the waves.  He told me that on our previous visits to the beach he was so young to remember it.  And he's right about it as he was just a baby when we last brought them to the beach. It's not a planned visit though because we just decided it a day ago.  It was New Year's day and a great welcome to the new year ahead.  We had our food from new year's eve celebration and we were with our church mates.  It was not just fun for my little boy Josh but for the whole family as well.

An Enjoyable and Relaxing Outdoor Space

Most of my friends are planning for their summer vacation as early as now because they’re taking advantage of promotions and good deals. Summer prices will be higher on resort accommodations because the demand for vacationing places will increase also.  I don’t have plans for now as we’ve only planned for our summer camp meeting on the mountainous hill in our nearby town and that would fall on the Holy Week.  Anyway since most of our vacation will be spent on our home sweet home we might as well plan on making it more comfortable and relaxing especially on our patio and outdoor spaces.  I’m just glad that we have enough space to put in some patio décor as additional furnishing to make our outdoor area more inviting. If we want to use it as a retreat from the bustle of the city we should furnish and make it more restful.

Well for those who really want to turn their patio into something like that of some place they visit for vacation they could have the same effects with Outdora’s varied outdoor products.  For a great bonding with family and friends one could have a pool firepit for a lazy and relaxing chat over warm fire while cooking some grilled foods for the picnic. It could be a group gathering or a simple romantic dinner for two. Just as long as you keep the place very inviting for entertaining friends or having some quality time with family I think you‘ll have a memorable vacation even without going out anywhere.

Outdora changes the way you look at entertainment and relaxation as they bring the best to achieve excellent results in keeping your home and family happy together.  They have varied products that can help convert your outdoor space into a beautiful oasis that you can relax your weary mind and forget about the outside world.  They provide high quality accessories and outdoor furnishings that you can have like patio furniture, greenhouses, gas heaters, grills and barbecues, fire pit, patio umbrella and a lot more. All these quality and helpful products you can get at lowest prices available online with 100% satisfaction guarantee and minimum one year warranty.

They Love Arcades and Playground

Josh loves playing in the arcade just like his siblings. On many special occasions of the kids they would always ask us to give them time to play on arcade and when they play we would play also so we can have more bonding moments with them. We love basketball and baseball and we play it as family. Whenever we’re in some park or resort they also look for some commercial playground equipment to play and to satisfy their longing for big playing equipment. My little boy had it in school but they’re allowed to play on very limited time only. I’m relieved that he never asked me to buy him one of those because I know that it’s too expensive for personal use only. We’ll just bring him to the park more often.

:Photohunt: Mostly Black - Black Clouds

 

Click image to enlarge view!

This is my view in the late afternoon when we had our outing in Cavite beach together with church brethren.  I saw all black greyish clouds looming atop the sea sending signals to us that rain showers are coming.  It's good that it happened an hour before we left the place and just a few raindrops.  It was the first day of the current year and we always go to the beach or somewhere to welcome the year with good vibes.  

The kids spent the whole day playing sands and swimming. They only come back to our cottage when they're hungry or thirsty. They really love the beach and so do I. Anyway the mountain looks dark also and they told me that beyond the mountain lied the province of Bataan.

Tired from School Activities

It’s a long weekend and I spent this weekend thinking of delicious recipe for my family as they’re all here since yesterday. Yesterday was the celebration of 25th anniversary of EDSA revolution and schools have no classes. It’s also a good break as the little boy was tired from their family day and field demo in school. Before the presentation they had series of rehearsals so I’m glad for the break. Both the little boy and I were tired and we slept past 6am the next day. 

We always wake up before 5am but yesterday we really took advantage of the holiday. How I wish we have those hot tub I saw online so we can use it when we want to relax our tired bodies. I’ve seen the hot tub spa covers and I agree that it’s really a must to get durable cover for the hot tub. If only I have it I would take good care and buy the best covers to protect it. Hmm maybe I can save for it.
