Husay: 51st Litratong Pinoy

Posted by girlie on February 28, 2010

Photobucket Aanhin ang mga knitting needles na yan kung hindi mahusay ang nagmamay-ari nyan (ahem). Oo may tinatago akong husay sa pag knit kasi sa youtube lang naman ako natuto at ito ay hit and miss. Tutorials here and there ang drama ko kapat di ko alam gawin ang mga stitches. Hanggang ngayon naman ganun pa rin ang drama ko. Sana pagdating ng panahon, lalo akong huhusay, yung tipong di ko na kelangan panoorin ang mga vids para magawa ko ang certain stitch na required. Haha may tagong husay nga naman ba? Eh bakit nangangailangan ng kodigo?

Spring Flowers

Posted by girlie on February 27, 2010

Ever since I remember, it has been my dream to have a little garden when I build my own house. Sadly that dream didn’t come to reality, but you can never tell. I don’t think that will happen anytime soon since we don’t really have enough space to put up a garden. It can probably happen when we build our “retirement” home. This time I’ll see to it that I will have a beautiful garden filled with all these flowers. I can imagine how I will go gaga when all these flowers are in bloom. You very well know that flowers are my favorite subject when it comes to photography. I don’t think I will ever get tired of taking photos of flowers. I remember doing that every Sunday over at my Mom’s house when she used to have all these beautiful flowers. My sister used to send her seeds, seeds that she thinks will grow here. True enough it did and it just made my Mom’s garden beautiful.

Now going back to having a beautiful garden, once in a while we talk about wanting to retire in a much cooler place. We just want a smaller house this time, in a bigger lot. I want to have a flower garden and a vegetable garden. I want to have a big lawn where the dogs can run, and the grandchildren can play. Haha I am funny, I talk like I’m going to have grandchildren anytime soon. Naaaahhh, my eldest is just 16, too early to be a Mom. Ha, I guess I have to stop talking now, my imagination has gone wild.

And Her Secret is…

Posted by girlie on February 26, 2010

I wonder if this friend of mine is already updated when it comes to the insurance business. She has always been noted as a top broker for how many years already. I don’t know if her secret to staying on top is insurance advertising. There is nothing wrong with this, in fact if I was in the insurance business, I too will dwell on that. If it’s a better way to improve on the sales then why not. Today we should think of ways and means on how to go about our businesses. The competition out there is tough so thinking of a better idea is not bad after all.

Stop Counting!

Posted by girlie on

Photobucket That’s what I had for snacks this afternoon while the other had a bowl of fruit salad. Yeah I am bitter, because I try hard to lose some unwanted pounds. For the first time I checked the number of calories of what I ate, and it said 85. I was like oh no! I spent 1 hour using wii fit and burned something like 208 calories, and a cup of oranges is already 85? From now on I will stop counting. I will just enjoy my fitness routine and I wish I can say enjoy my food too, but nah thank you!

Knife to Open?

Posted by girlie on February 25, 2010

I promised not to hurt myself anymore. Yeah you learn your lesson the hard way. You can’t blame me, I was just super excited to get my stuff. I am talking about some shopping. It’s normally being delivered in a box. And what do you know, knife comes in. I should have ordered this box cutter together with the stuff I asked someone to buy for me. Darn! How barbaric, opening a box with a kitchen knife. It’s like eeewww. Oh never mind, next time around those knives won’t be anywhere near the box.

Promotional Items

Posted by girlie on

It’s the election season here in our country. A lot of stuff are being given away, some useful, most are not. How I wish that instead of giving out something that can’t be use, someone would think of giving away these promotional hand sanitizers instead. It promotes health and wellness. These should be the kind of stuff to be given away, and not something that goes to the bin. I might as well suggest this to a relative who is running for a national post.

Entrecard or Adgitize

Posted by girlie on February 23, 2010

Which one works? Entrecard or Adgitize? It takes too much of my time dropping, I have 4 blogs you see. But I acknowledge that it helps when it comes to traffic. But which one is really effective? I am too lazy to read, so please someone please tell me? Haha I sound like a brat, but I owe you one, pretty pretty please?

Photobucket Ayayay! Tatanggapin pa kaya ako ni Ms. LP? Buwan ng Agosto 2009 pako huling lumahok at iyon ay ang aking pang 49th entry. Ganda ng aking pagbabalik di ba, pang 50th, sana golden na golden ang pagwe-welcome sakin.

Gustong gusto ko ang shorts na iyan dahil sya ay mukhang luma, gutay gutay at may mga mantsa ng pintura. Sadyang nung ibinili yan, ganun na talaga sya. Espesyal ang shorts na iyan dahil ang totoong nagma-may-ari nyan ay ang aking anak na lalaki. Matagal na hindi kasya sa kanya yan dahil sa sya ay palaki na ng palaki. At ako naman na palaki at palaki rin ang nakinabang sa shorts na iyan. kung ako ay dating size 0, ngayong ay hamak na size 6 lang naman, ang baboy ko na di ba? Ok lang kundi di ako magkakaron ng boyfriend shorts sa aking wardrobe.

Need Help with Compensation Claim?

Posted by girlie on February 16, 2010

Accidents do happen. We do not know when and when it happens we are never prepared for it. What’s worst when accidents happen it’s so hard to get compensation claims. I hear a lot of stories regarding that and sometimes it makes me think why these things are happening. Indeed we live in a cruel world. If one can get away with it, then they would. It’s pretty unfair if you think of it, for one you are entitled to claim the compensation that you need. Like I said an accident is not your own doing.

Now there are others who do not want to go after such claims. Maybe they think they do not have the resources to do so. The others are not physically fit to go through all the requirements or the paper works that goes with the claim. Now if you fall under this category, let me tell you that someone can help you out with your Compensation Claims. Their services is totally free. I know what you’re thinking, it’s too good to be true, right? But I tell you it’s free, you need not put out a single penny. If you are successful with your claim, then you get it 100%. Still too good to be true? Again let me share with you that fees involved will never be charged to you but to the third party’s insurance company.

Getting interested now? All you need to do is pick up your phone and call. If you can’t do that, you can always go online and fill up the form. They have experts who can help you out with your possible COMPENSATION CLAIMS. Don’t waste you time anymore and don’t let the agony linger. Who knows, the compensation you get would help you out with your ongoing medication. That claim can go a long long way. The more you act with hesitation, the more harder or almost impossible for you to claim.

Blog Makeover

Posted by girlie on

Ever since I got hooked to Facebook and it’s games, I’ve forgotten about my blogs too. There will be times that I’m too lazy to write or update and I just want to spend time at Farmville, Farmtown, Cafe World, name it I play it. Anyway, I finally decided to give my Blogspot makeover. This is where I started wayback July 2004. Omigosh, been blogging for 6 years already? Hope you find time to take a look at my new layout. I thought I wouldn’t manage doing it since I didn’t know where to start last night.

I Want to Grow Taller

Posted by girlie on February 15, 2010

Looks like I am in search for the best hgh supplement. Why? Someone wants to grow tall :P Who? I am not saying. It’s one of her frustrations I tell yah. But, but she has grown since the last time, but not noticeable enough. I’m not really familiar with HGH thingy so I’d probably read more about it. I need all the information I can take my hands on, then from there I will decide whether to let her take it or not.

Have You Decided?

Posted by girlie on

Are you like me? I mean before I buy products that I haven’t used or if it’s basically new to me, I go out of my way to look for reviews made on the product. I have to know what people say and by that I won’t commit a “mistake” of buying something and eventually it would save me money.

If you notice staying fit is getting to be a big thing. People resort to just anything in order to have the desired weight they have been dreaming of. Most of us would resort to diet pills and exercise. Maybe you might like to take a peek at this lipozene reviews first before deciding on which pill you want to use. And this is what I’m saying, read about what people have to say first, consult you doctor too before deciding on which to purchase.

My Cafe, My World

Posted by girlie on

Photobucket Ha! Sure I haven’t stopped playing FB games, but there’s just like 3 games compared to 6 or 7 I used to play. I don’t know but I can’t let go of the 3 remaining games that I love to play. It’s a stress buster for me. I feel relaxed and happy playing those games, but my life does not depend on it if you care to know :P It’s the creative juice I am after. It makes me happy seeing my cafe so pretty, my farm so organized, and my pet so cute in her new outfit. I admit it takes so much of my time so I am learning to just put a few hours on it, and not on a 24/7 basis.

I Need a Diet That Works

Posted by girlie on February 14, 2010

People are getting conscious of their health nowadays and I am one of them. I know I have really abused my health by not eating the right food, not exercising at all and worst smoking. But I am glad to report to you that I had progress with with the 3 already. I am now aware of the right foods to eat, but I still search for diets that work because I am on the heavy side now. It’s actually my first to go over 110 lbs. I do my exercise 3x a week and soon it’s going to be everyday because I already bought my Wii Fit Plus for days that I don’t go to my aerobics class. I’ve been smoke free for more than a year already and praise God that I was able to do all these.

Healthcare Products

Posted by girlie on February 13, 2010

My father was sick for a very long time. I remember he had his first major stroke the year I was married. I really cried a lot because it was just too painful for me to bear. I was pregnant with my first child at that time and they would ask me not to cry too much. Part of Dad being sick is his need for incontinence products. It was really needed. I think he used it for something like 4 years. Mom really took good care of him. It was then I realized and wished that once day I will be like Mom and her dedication to my Dad.

Pizza and Ice Cream

Photobucket That was what she asked for when she came home from her 4 day retreat. Apparently she was starved and needed her comfort food. Funny how she was sending me SMS that she misses my cooking already and she does not like what was served to them since day one. So as requested, we went straight to Mall of Asia after we fetched her from school, and yes we gave her what she asked for. It was a great bonding moment for the family.

New Smile

Posted by girlie on

There was a time I was considering having dental implants. That’s actually one of my insecurities, my teeth. I wish it was perfect, I wish it was pearly white and I wish it was good enough to be chosen to appear in a toothpaste commercial. My search for pearly white perfect teeth led me to Orange NJ dental implants. That’s how exactly I want my set of teeth to be. I does not look fake at all. You wouldn’t even notice that their clients have implants.

I Want to Drive Momma

Posted by girlie on

Ish has been requesting that she’d be allowed to learn how to drive already. She’s already 16 and she can now apply for a student permit. Funny how her Dad reminded me to have my car insured. Yeah right now it isn’t, but I am scouting for an auto insurance already. The hubs is right after all. It’s really right to have my car insured so that when anything happens we won’t be the ones shouldering all of the repair expense.

Lawyers in Oklahoma

Posted by girlie on

I really like the fact that almost everything is now available in the internet. It really saves a lot time rather than going to the offices even just to inquire. What I like most too is that right there and then I could compare and study. There’s one thing I envy when it comes to Oklahoma and I wish it was also readily available to where I live. I’m talking about this Oklahoma City lawyer who has his own website. I wish our lawyers here would also start building their websites so that they would be within reach to some prospective clients.

Still Not Done

Posted by girlie on February 9, 2010

I finally got my SOA (Statement of Account) and made the payment yesterday. It took so long for the files to upload, even the payment took so long. I asked the teller how much he can process for a day and he said about 30 only. Can you imagine that? This is because their system is so slow. I even suggested that since taxpayers double yearly they should have anticipated it and had an upgrade in their system. Still sucks big time…I am asked again to come back to claim my business permit on the 17th. I think it would be wise if I go back a week after it’s due to be released. I have a strong hunch that it won’t come out as scheduled.

The Long Wait

Posted by girlie on February 8, 2010

I’ll be going to Manila City Hall again this afternoon. I’ve been asked to come back for my Statement of Account about 4 times already. They gave me a number to call to inquire if it’s out already but it’s real hard getting through. I will again attempt to go there this afternoon and hopefully it would be out by then so I can get our Business Permit. There are probably too many business owners in the City of Manila, or probably I didn’t bribe the people there so it took me forever to get my permit. I applied on the 14th of January and what are we now, February 8? They moved the deadline to February 26, after which a fine would be added for late filers.

The Luxury of Sleep

Posted by girlie on February 6, 2010

Photobucket

I was hesitant to go when I got invited to attend the Johnson’s Baby Bedtime event. I told the organizers that all my kids are grown up already. Actually I wanted very much to attend, but then again at the back of my mind I was like what am I gonna do there? I’m too young to have grandchildren so I won’t be able to apply what I’ve learned. But I’m happy that I did, I learned a lot of things.

I am a hands on Mom, and I am surprised that there were a lot of things I missed out. I probably did it my way which thank God was effective. I didn’t find it hard taking care of my 2 precious kids probably because I had a very able nanny. But if I could turn back the hands of time, I would follow strictly a bedtime routine for the kids. It would not only benefit them but the Moms as well.

Sleep is very important for the baby because it is during this time that they are more receptive to growth. Mommies out there, hear me! This is what I learned! Every baby should have a sleep routine if you want them to have a sound sleep. Mind you, you should be consistent in implementing this, otherwise your effort would be in vain. Start off with a warm bath and please make it quick. I think you already know what will happen if you don’t. It’s night time remember? Avoid doing things that would perk up the baby otherwise he would think that it’s play time. Set the mood in other words and make him remember that it’s bed time. You can play soft music that will make him settle down. After the warm bath, you can give the baby a soothing massage. I’ve always believed in touch therapy. Aside from the fact that it contributes to the growth of the baby, it makes the baby feel loved. Here are the different massage techniques you can give the babies. Now after the massage is some quiet time with the baby. It can be a lullaby, or you can read to her a bedtime story book. There’s nothing more soothing than hearing a mother’s voice.

Mortgage 101

Posted by girlie on February 5, 2010

Are you about to lose your property to the mortgagee? I worked in the mortgage industry for quite some time so I know how someone feels about losing their homes. Not many know that mortgages can still be refinanced especially if the mortgage value is not that high yet. For first time mortgagors, don’t panic. There are ways and means on how to lower or adjust your mortgage rates. Consider refinancing if you are already pushed to the wall. There are also helpful mortgage articles you can read, who knows you can find the solution to your problem in one of the articles.

Zebra Tips

Posted by girlie on February 2, 2010

Photobucket The last time I had nail art was a month ago. A christmas(sy) one. Then I went plain because that kind of blue I had was too beautiful and I didn’t like to ruin it. Anyway, I saw this design in one of the live updates in Facebook. I said to myself, hhhmm I’m gonna copy it. Next time I will not use silver as the base, I should have stuck with french manicure then made some zebra lines on the tips.
