can’t do confirm it

I have been a little concern over my weight. People say I have gained a lot, but there is no way I can attest to that. We don’t have a weighing scale to determine how much we weigh on a certain point of time. That is why I can’t do confirm whether or not what they say is true or it could be I’m just ignoring the truth.

Anyway, wifey said we should invest in that equipment especially now that we are trying to reduce weight. There are lots of affordable bathroom weight scales available in the market these days. It’s a great investment as we can monitor our weight on whatever day we want to. There is no need to run to the nearest clinic just to get our weights. Well, I guess she is right. All we need to do now is to find the most affordable, but is with great quality.

cold temperature bring illness

The cold temperature in a tropical country brings a lot of colds, cough and pneumonia cases. The people here are not used to having a low temperature that is why when the weather drops it is expected that a lot of people will get those mentioned above. And, wifey and Maya are not exempted from that. They too suffer cough and colds. Good thing those are the only problems they have. But, they were able to get rid of it after three days of medication.

I learned that there was a serious case of snow fall in some parts of the world. My friend even said that he can’t take his hands off the toro snowblower. He wanted to clean up their yard after the winter snow, but the snow keeps on falling day after day. He said it’s a better gadget as compare to using a shovel. However, the snow got deeper and he has no choice, but to use the shovel.

After learning that, I realized I am still lucky I won’t don’t have that kind of problem. All I need is a thicker blanket at night and our problem is solved.

a state of shock knowing what happen

It’s a shock to me learning that one of my friends in college has been hit by a car last Thursday. He did not get any other injuries except in the head that costs his life. He stayed in the ICU for two days before his body gave up. The entire thing brings pain and grief to all those who know him. Plus, his family is now facing financial challenges. That is why they need the help of knowledgeable, we-trained accident attorney to fight for their right.

 

can’t get enough of her holiday shopping

Oops, wifey and I have been spending a lot lately. We had some troubles resisting to the sale during the holidays. We end up purchasing items not part of our budget because they were on sale. Good thing, we deem we had a good buy or else we will surely regret why we visited different stores.

Anyway, it seems like wifey can’t get enough of her holiday shopping. I was able to get a glance at her laptop where I find different online stores for shoes and womens boots. Just like any women, she also loved shoes. And she has the tendency to buy so many of it even if there are some boxes left unopened, which is the bad thing.

For that matter, I already reminded her to use her new shoes first. She purchase quite a few during the holidays. Plus, we are already out of cash for another round of shopping.

hoping everything will be alright

My wait is almost over that’s why I’m back searching for health care jobs. I already found a number of healthcare job listings website. But, I did not apply yet since I don’t have much qualification. I just keep a note on each one of them. When the right time comes, I will come back on each and will send my resume in each vacancy I find suitable. For now, I will just go easy on them.

Anyway, I’m pretty much excited to go back job hunting. But, I need to pass the exam I will be taking March this year. That is the very reason I’m back reviewing my notes and books. My goal is to pass the exam. It will be my ticket to having a job I always wanted. I’m just hoping everything will be alright.

my Christmas wish lists

It’s Christmas day! But, I’m confused what to do. Wifey wants to go shopping as she deems there is a huge Christmas sale at the mall. However, I’m a bit dizzy. The three cans of beer happened to make me drunk. I’m no longer used to any alcoholic beverages. It’s been ages since the last time I had one.

Anyway, I will just stay in the house and look at the gold pieces before getting some nap. I wanted to buy gold online for a long time. It is even in my Christmas wish lists. But, it’s quite pricey for me so I failed to put a hand on it. Despite that I’m still hopeful I will be able to purchase it perhaps in the future. I will just work hard for it.

For now, I will enjoy the rest of the day and eat our entire Christmas dish. Then, grab some good sleep after. Or perhaps watch some movies I downloaded before this day.

Merry Christmas everyone! Have a nice and happy day!

Teaching Kids the Meaning of Christmas

Christmas is about family. Here is a collection of five crafts that you can make as a family to teach the true meaning and symbols of Christmas. Children will learn to identify Christmas using their five senses: sight, sound, smell, taste and touch. Pick and choose the activities you think your family will best enjoy, and spread them throughout the season. Start new traditions. Most importantly, use the activities to talk as a family.

Sight Activities - Take a Christmas Lights Drive: Pile everyone in the van after dark and tour your city or a nicely decorated neighborhood. Some cities will have a town center that will be lit up. Ask your children which decorations are their favorites and why. Talk about how the twinkling lights resemble the stars. Remind them that on the night Jesus was born a new star shone in the sky, announcing his birth to the whole world. Even people in different countries knew the Christ-child was born, and some wise men traveled to find him.

good thing I still have energy

Our leisure walking inside the mall, as said in my previous post, exhausts all our energy. But the smile in our face did not wear out until today. Wifey and I really had a great bonding time. Our feet hurt and feel numb already, but its worthy as it brings joy to our hearts.

Good thing I still have enough energy to combat some work today. My tasks piled up from the absence I had yesterday. Fortunately, I was able to finish everything before the clock hits five in the afternoon. It means I have the entire night to rest, do some blogging and read articles about gold. I still have a desire to buy gold bullion perhaps in the future.

while leisurely walking

After paying all our bills yesterday, wifey and I decided to roam the mall. I guess we just can’t get enough walking as we keep on strolling the mall every Sunday after the mass. It is good that way at least we can get our body moving and heart beating.

Moving forward our mall adventure, the whole afternoon all we do is leisurely walk inside the mall. We did not purchase anything until around seven in the evening when wifey remembers to buy a blanket. She almost forgets about it, good thing she recalls it before we decide to go home.

Well, we only purchase a regular and low cost blanket based on our budget. But, I can’t help to appreciate the beauty of sferra linens. These linens set the standard in luxury for the bed, bath, and table. With a steadfast commitment to unsurpassed quality, SFERRA continues to design for the times, creating a one-of-a-kind marriage of comfort and modern day elegance. When the right time comes, I’m sure to purchase Sferra product lines. But, for now I will settle to the ordinary and affordable linens.

disappointed over canceled plan today

I’m really disappointed when wifey canceled our plan for today. She is getting used to it already that’s why I called her attention about this, early this morning. Feeling guilty she promised to make up to me tomorrow. Hopefully, she will not cancel, but I will not expect.

For now I will just read some gold articles. I wanted to buy gold coins this year. But, I would need to do more in order to save more. Like many other, I am also fascinated with the beauty and magic of gold, and with its power to change men’s lives. Today, the beauty of a gold bar lies in its proven ability to diversify investments, protect wealth and preserve one’s purchasing power. Gold bullion is a unique investment.
