My Wishlist for this Christmas

If you have a wish for this Christmas of course I have too. So let's Make a Wish and God Will do the Rest; nobody knows that our wish will be granted anytime soon.

Here is my Christmas Wishlist:

1. For my husband to come home - I know this is impossible for this Christmas

2. Printer- because I don't have it and i think I need one

3. New Digital Camera- I have one but there's an optical problem and that's what the lady told me when I let it checked at the repair shop.

4. New Cellphone- because what I have right now was faced out already in the market.

5. Clothes- I need new one because I'm gaining weight and can't wear anymore some of my clothes

So those are what I want for this Christmas. I think not that much than yours.

Let's bare in Mind that "It's better to Give than to Receive"

Merry Christmas!

The Couple with 18 Children

When I open the computer yesterday I saw at yahoo headlines the woman from Arkansas named Michelle Duggar had just delivered a baby girl by cesarean section to her 18th child. When I read it I asked my self "What 18th baby?". Oh my goodness!I was really surprised on that woman. And they said they want more.

So the Duggar family have now 10 sons and 8 daughters. Hmmm.. When do you think they will have another baby? Well, We will watch out for that.

Anyway, having a big family is fun when the kids are grown already, but of course big expenses also especially when they reach in college. So the parents must have to prepare in everything for their needs in order to raise their children well to be somebody in the future.

Wedding Anniversary

Today is our Wedding Anniversary. This is our 1st time being apart in this unforgettable moment in our lives as a couple. Time really fly so fast, without knowing that we're now to years in service. lol! and I almost forgot! How dare me to forget? I don't know 'bout my husband if he does because I'm the first one who greet him.

For 2 years in marriage we are now blessed with 2 babies, a girl and a boy and both were delivered Cesarean . The baby boy named Daniel James is now 1 year and 4 months and her sister Dhurianne Angela Aquira will turn 4 months this coming 20th of this month. So that is a short story about our marriage life within 2 years.


This greeting card below is for my beloved husband.

New Year a New Life


Few days to go and 2008 will be over. A New Year and a New life, but have you think if what it would be like? I think nobody is not hoping that it would be a fruitful year compared to the past years. More jobs, more blessings and good health as well.

Since it's a new life, we are also thinking of some new things to do or need to be change in our lives. I heard some people saying "My New Year Resolution is to quit Smoking", and another individual also saying "My New Year resolution is to Stop dating different men." So, what about you? I'm sure you have too. And 'bout mine? Hmmm.. I just want to be on time at all times because it take too long for me to do things. This is always one of my new year resolution but not yet fulfilled. Hopefully next year I'll start to shine. lol!

Blender



I just purchased a new blender a month ago and then today the housekeeper told me that not functioning anymore. It was not the cheapest one compared to the rest brand. I seen that it is in a good quality but even if the stuff is in a good quality as long as not cared properly it would be damage easily.

Sad to hear that news from her but I have no choice except to get a new one because I really need it for my baby's food. He's now 1 year and 4 months but still eating cereal and the solid food must be blend because if not he'll vomit it or will not eat at all.

Entrecard Problem


Entrecard is a very useful one to the bloggers to get more traffic in their blog and that's the main reason why I joined there. Another reason also is to have more friends. But from the time I registered til now I still encountered the same problem.

If I log out and then wants to log in back after a few minutes I can't log in anymore. I tried it many times but was failed and I don't know why.

Why is it that entrecard can't fix this kind of trouble? Many registered users raised this kind of problem when I visited their forum but I think they don't take any action regarding this. Well, hopefully this will be settled soon.

Getting Own Domain

Lately I'm planning of getting my own domain. I have to make some research first before choosing from which site. I heard about godaddy dot com and when I looked at their site they're on sale. Actually I am looking for the cheapest but reliable one.

Where do you think i can find that? Honestly speaking I never tried doing this (buying own domain) in my whole life so I really don't have any idea how do it and how it works. And that one is of my next thing to find out. So be with me guys I'll tell you soon my discovery.

Here Comes the Rainy Season



Rainy season is here. Raining all day at Saturday, and I was trapped at home. I'm planning to go out to have some groceries but due to the rain so I prefer to stay inside the house and it's very cold also.I remember the previous day I went out and I was wet because I forgot to bring my umbrella. The weather this time is different, you can see that it’s very hot but in awhile it rain. It would be good if we’ll just prepare at all times always bring the umbrella every time you go out just to make sure you’ll not be wet and get sick afterwards because of the changeable weather.

During rainy days is nice to stay in bed covered yourself with a thick blanket then snore at any time. Yes really nice to sleep have the body relaxed and free from thinking anything.

My Thought About Business

zwani.com myspace graphic comments

I love involving myself into business. Well, what kind of business do you think is good this time in behalf of the economy crisis? This monkey business came into my mind; do you think it’s good? I heard people talking about monkey business but I really don’t know what that means. Sorry guys I was born yesterday. Do you have any idea?

Seriously, business is good if you have the capital together with your dedication to get involve into it, and that’s very important. Aside from you own your time you are also the boss and nobody can dictate you what to do. I want to start one if I have the capital but I have to make some research first the risk of the particular business. I’m looking forward with that very small capital but can gain big profit. Do you think it exists? Let me know if it does.





Household Helper

Today is not a good day for me. The housekeeper and the babysitter are giving me problems. They abuse my kindness. They are eating my son’s food. In fact every time I have my grocery I also have something for them like chips or anything for them to eat. I provided them a supply of bathe soap, toothpaste, shampoo, and etc which is free of charge, but why they are acting like want for more? Oh gees! I’ll always be in trouble. I had also an experienced with the previous babysitter, what she did was a different one she drink the infants’ milk which is only for my baby. Weird, right? Maybe she just want to have a share also and to mention Similac( infants’ milk) is very expensive milk so expected I’ll get mad.

I don’t know what’s in their mind guys why misbehaving like this. This time is hard to find a trusted and reliable one that’s why I trait them well, but this is what I get in return. If I only don’t need anybody’s help I’ll let them go a long time ago, but sad to say that I really do.

So this time I really confronted the two of them that I don’t like what they did. Hoping here that they will not pass through to the other ear all those words I say.

Simplest Way to Preserve Fruits and Vegetables

We want to preserve our fruits and vegetables as much as possible to remain the freshness of it. What we usually do is put it directly inside the refrigerator using either a plastic box or a plate. And did you notice that usually it is good only for a few days? Well it is, and I do observe it.

What I’m going to share to you guys is a different one; it is the simplest method using the aluminum coated plastic bag. Instead of throwing away after removing the content we can use it in this means. The good thing for this is the freshness last for weeks. Can you imagine that? So really amazing! Try to look at the pictures bellow




aluminum coated plastic bag from Quaker
note: any other aluminum plastic bag would do







after 1 week this is the result.


** Don't fold or seal the opening of the bag.**

The Blogger




I felt lazy and tired when I woke up this morning. Since I start blogging I sleep late most of the time and it made me feel tired and sleepy. Well, I think that's the natural feeling of an sleepless person, am I right? What do you think? I'm having fun! Got addicted to it from the time I started blogging and not only that I'm yearning also to earn something. Being a full time mom taking care of the babies waiting for the sun to shine life is boring sometimes.Maybe not unless if going out everyday and go shopping, go to places wherever you want. But I'm not that rich. I usually went out before when no babies yet almost everyday I can't stay at home. But now is different I have to save money, even single cents I keep that. So hopefully I can earn something from what I am doing lately.

7 Tips On How to Save Energy at Home

I know that as an individual as much as possible we want that our energy consumption at home will be very low so we won't be paying that very high amount, am I right? Aside from that benefit we can help also our mother earth from global warming. So I have some tips for you on how to do that and I'm sure you'll be glad if you'll find out that the following bill is decreased. Actually I just read about this but I just want to share this to you especially that the electricity is keep on increasing now a days.

1.) Draft Dodging
In the average home, nearly 20 percent of all heat is lost through unprotected openings in windows, doors and floorboards.

If you feel a draft, weather strip your doors and windows and use filler to close up cracks on window frames and floor boards.

To test an area, simply hold your hand or a lit candle, up against a door or window. If you feel cold air coming in … warm air is escaping. And as your mother always said, “Why heat outside?!"

2)Turn It Down


Turning down your thermostat by just 1 degree can reduce your energy consumption by more than 5%.... And you won't even notice the difference.

And, while you're at it, don't heat rooms you're not using. This can save you cash on your heating bill.

3.)Turn It Off

You already know you should turn off any appliances you're not using. This includes switching off lights when you leave a room.

And don't use that “standby” function on your electronics. According to the California Energy Commission, devices set to “standby” still use power, accounting for 35 percent of the wasted energy in your home. Eliminating that this could save $1 billion every year in the U.S.


4.)In Hot Water

Your hot water heater does NOT need to be set higher than 140 degrees Fahrenheit, or 60 degrees centigrade. Any higher, and the system automatically adds cold water to cool it back down for use. Now that's just wasteful.


5.)Waste Not, Wash Not

Don't run your washing machine unless you've got a full load. If you can't wait, make sure to use the “economy” or “half load” settings.

Modern washing machines work just as effectively at 100 degrees as they do at 140 degrees. But that 100-degree setting cuts carbon emissions by one-third.

Tumble dryers use up a lot of energy, so why not hang your clothes on a line instead? This is better for your clothing AND the environment.

Speaking of washing, taking a shower instead of a bath uses about 50 percent less water and energy.

6.) Insulation Installation

Up to one-third of the heat in your home escapes through your roof. You can prevent this by insulating your attic. Not only is it simple to do, but it's the most cost-effective energy-saving measure you can take.

And don't stop there... If you haven't already, insulate your walls. This prevents another third of your heat from escaping.

7)Hit The Breaks

Saving energy is not only good for the earth, it's good for your wallet. Government tax breaks and rebate incentives are often available when you retrofit your home to be as energy efficient as possible.

In the U.S., consumers who install energy-saving equipment in their homes may be eligible for a $500 tax credit. Check your local power authority for more information.
Good Buys and Tips
From light bulbs to kitchen gear, there are tons of energy-efficient appliances available on the market. Amazingly, these machines often use 50 percent less energy than other models.

And, after you bring your energy-efficient appliances home, make sure you use them in an energy-efficient way…

Don't boil more water than you need, don't leave the fridge or freezer doors open longer than necessary, don't forget to defrost your freezer regularly, and try give your hot water heater regular check-ups.

And while you're at it, you could save even more by switching to energy-efficient light bulbs.







Showing of Gratefulness



My precious daughter is now 3 months old and I am very happy that she's fine and healthy. As a sign of being thankful to God for giving us a healthy and beautiful baby I purchased her a cake from
Goldilocks. Usually I do it every month if can remember.lol! And my hubby asked me again if who eat the cake. So I answered of course the beautiful witch. lol!(referring to myself). Well in fairness cake from Goldilocks taste good, they can count on me as one of their avid customer and hopefully they'll give me discount next time.

Happy Fiesta Nuestra SeƱora Virgen de Regla




Every 21st day of November is the feast celebration of Virgen de Regla. Nuestra SeƱora Virgen de la Regla is adored at the National Shrine in Opon, Lapu-lapu City, Mactan Island of Cebu. People already used to go visit from different parts in Cebu just to witnessed the event, they offer prayers and some light candles. This year is my 2nd time being there and joined the crowd. I saw vendors everywhere selling anything. It is also practiced that one to two days prior the celebration and during the feast day vehicles except private are not allowed to enter to the place so the people have to walk like 1 kilometer going there. So I was one of those guys walking but I have fun. Hopefully by next year I can still join the celebration.

Lexmark Uniform

Have you heard about Lexmark Company? It is an International Company that manufactured ink for the printer. In fact they are also selling printer, fax machine and so much more. Lexmark has a site in Lapu-lapu City that is located in Visayas that purely manufacture printer ink and to mention it is very expensive compared to other brand. So that's only an overview about Lexmark.

The story is this, when I went to the supermarket I saw a beggar wearing lexmark uniform. There are two of them, I don't know where do they get that uniform. My only point is, what do you think would be the reaction of the Lexmark people that their uniform is worn by the beggar? And what if the Lexmark people and the beggar meet in the street wearing the same thing. Well, maybe they will be shock or might be upset.












Poor Smart Internet Connection

Three days already since the Internet connection is on and off and it made me upset. I keep calling the Smart hot line for the problem encountered and you know what they told me? Ma'am please just wait within 30 minutes. So the blogger is waiting and call back again. The next phrase I receive was "Please wait within 24 hours I already made a report about your problem". So the following day same problem again til today and keep on calling again, again and again and got the same answer. Hopefully Smart will fix this technical problem.Really poor connection I don't know when this will be fixed, hopefully soon. And I'm calling Smart to give me a rebate for this.

Reimbursement

For almost 3 months waiting thanks God it's now reimbursed.I'm glad I got the check from my health Insurance. Having such insurance really helped me during my hard times. When I gave birth as a cesarean my health insurance is very useful and I appreciate it so much because it lessen my hospital bill and my baby is covered with that. The reimbursement that I got is from my baby's hospital bill, since newborn has no birth certificate which is one of the requirements in availing the benefit so the transaction was transact late.

Thanks It's Friday

I went to the supermarket this afternoon to purchase some baby food and on my way home I heard the DJ (Disc Jockey) saying thanks God it's Friday! So I remember that today is Friday. Friday the last working day of the week to those who are working but there are also some company that are open 24/7, it means 24 hours in a day 7 days a week. Reminiscing the past when I was working Friday is not a great day for me because I work in a manufacturing company open 24/7. Sunday still a working day but we have an options to work or not, but in my case I still work because I want to earn more. Months passed by I realized that I need to rest and enjoy my life not that work to death and can't see the sun shining anymore.

So to you guys, though we need to work but still give time to yourself and to your family especially if have kids.

Toddler Shoes

As time goes by my baby boy is now big and growing faster. This morning while we are sitting in the couch I tried to let him wear his old shoes and I noticed that it is becoming tighter and I'm sure that soon it won't fit anymore. Actually my son don't like wearing shoes, he prefer sandals that is why I am not fond of buying shoes for him except sandals.

Since his shoes is already small I am thinking of buying a new pair for him, a shoes that he will be comfortable wearing while walking. He really loves to stay outside most of the time and he can have lots of it when his daddy will be here. Dad and son bonding again while walking with the new comfy shoes. While browsing in the net I found this 2 cool and very comfortable by just looking at it and really good for hiking. You can view some of these at childrensplace store they are also on sale.















The Swing that I like

When I went to the mall few days I ago I found something very nice and I got attracted to it, it's an adult swing. It is really nice. I tried sitting on it and imagining how I wish I can buy it and put it in our backyard. The more will be nice if the backyard has some trees and flowers so you can feel the breeze while sitting on it with you partner in life. That would be nice, right? Well, I'll just dream about it and the swing.

Fixing Your Baby's Flat Head

As a mother we don't want that our baby will have a flat head. I'm glad that my first baby which is now 14 months old don't have that problem. Is that a problem? For me I can consider that as a problem. During his early months of infancy I told my husband that I don't want our baby's head will turn into flat. And he kept telling me that I'm too much. Yeah it's true I'm really too much and it's because I want the best for my child. If anything I can do I'll do it, that's how I love my baby. So I bought a pillow for our little one that can support his head and we also keep on turning him from side to side.

For moms out there you can fix your baby's flat head with the instructions below:

1.)Allow the baby to sleep on his side. If you change his position during the night often, his flat spot will begin to go back to a normal shape.

2.)Use a blanket or wedge at night to keep the baby from laying on the flat part of her skull. The non-flat part should be resting on the bed.

3.)Encourage the baby to play on his tummy. A sufficient amount of tummy time can help him development as well as take the weight off of the flat spot on his head.

4.)Hold your baby often. If you keep the baby out of swings, cribs and car seats for a few hours a day, it will take the pressure off of the skull.

5.)Ask your doctor about a pressure helmet. In severe cases, a doctor may use a helmet to help reshape the baby's head back to normal.







Sucky Finger Baby

My baby is 14 months old and he still suck his fingers(the little finger and the ring finger). When he started teething I become more worried about it because he got cut on his fingers where he often suck and it take time to heal for that wound. I think the teeth is sharp that's why he got cut on it. I tried putting glove on his hand so he can't suck and forget soon, before it works when he was 12 mos. but when I stop putting glove he turn again as a sucky finger baby. Besides from the glove I also tried putting ginger (extract) on his finger and it didn't work. My last option this time is to put chili on his finger and I know he'll cry so that's why I'm hesitant to do it. I know the glove will not work anymore because he knows already how to remove it. There were many times I put it and when I check it the morning it's not there on his hand anymore. So regarding my last option I still have to think many times about it (referring to chili) if have to do it or not.

Is there any mom out there who encountered the same problem as mine? Will you please share some of your tips to this worried mom over here?

Belief

All Souls Day is the time for us to visit the dead ones and offer some prayer to them. But prior to that day people are busy cleaning the tomb, painting and some other things that they need to do in the cemetery. And you know what, I'm just wondering why people in some rural areas in the Philippines have this weird belief. They are offering food to their dead ones during All Souls Day by putting food in the altar of their house. And that's because they believed that the spirit of the dead will roam around visit their relatives and friends. Is it not weird? What do you think?

You want to be SEXY?

Word sexy has a lot of definitions and it varies to the perception of the individual. Some people I know they define sexy a body with a curve or figure.Whatever the individuals point of view is, we'll just respect them.

So if you want your body to be sexy just simply do what is written below:

1.) Don't eat cook foods for breakfast, eat only fruits but don't eat fruits for dinner.

2.)Drink virgin coconut oil (VCO) twice a day.

3.)Have a detox diet and drink 12-14 glasses of water a day.


All you have to do is discipline yourself and you'll see the result after 3 days.








My Incision

Without knowing that from the time I gave birth from Cesarean it's now 2 months and 12 days. Time really fly too fast. My baby is now getting bigger and my incision is also started fading. I'm so thankful that the pain is also going away, gosh it was really painful. So since it is a major surgery I was restricted not to carry my toddler and not allowed also to climb up the stairs many times in a day. Despite of all those restrictions I'm still blessed and grateful that it's now over.

Thanks to God! Hallelujah!

Don't Know Where to Spend Holidays?

Holiday is the time for us to spend time to our love ones. No work! You don't need to get out from bed early in the morning like around 3 or 4 a.m. just to reach the early bus and for us not to be late from work. Holiday is really a special time for us to stay with our family. During this time People are planning to go the beach, malls for shopping, park especially if have kids, so the kids can run around and play. Really lots of options to do, and if you prefer to spend it in the beach I highly recommend Plantation Bay Resort. The place is great! They have the beach,pool and a very nice man made lagoon. If you have kids there's also an activities for them too.









This kind of place is where you belong. So, Have FUN!
