Meet Ups

babie — Fri, 27 Aug 2010 05:25:50 +0000

I have no idea that my cousins who are from the USA are here. My mom is going to Mall of Asia to meet them. Actually, they went straight to the province and just passed by Manila today to meet my mom before going back to the USA. If I could, I would go with my mom but I am physically incapable. Hehehe! Anyways, she told me before she left that she will be meeting up with wholesale liquidators too for the business. I guess this is a good move for the business. Actually, my dad has been looking for ways to expand the business and people to handle them. I guess this is one way for my parents to do just that.

Fall Back

My eldest sister told us that she is resigning because of the pressure that she gets from work and the fact that her partner will be working abroad. I am not really sure if she will become a stay-at-home mom, just like me or whether she will look for a less stressful job. Whatever she decides I am sure that she will be successful in it. In fact, she can get any job that she wants even customer service jobs. To be honest, I guess this job is the job that we can always fall back on if we want to go back to the corporate world. In fact, with the onset of call service centers so many people (men and women) have means to support themselves even if the work one has to comply to the 24-hour shift.

First Things First

We have been meaning to buy a new digital camera, not just any camera but the one that I want.Hehehe! However, hubby said that I need to take care of my health insurance first. He said that I should look for one that offers the same deal with that of North Carolina health insurance. I should probably check if they offer their insurance outside of North Carolina. Anyways, since he will be paying for it, I should probably just listen to what he says so he can already buy me the camera that that he promised me. I saw him checking it out last weekend.

What’s Done Is Done

I realized just now how remiss I am when it comes to blogging that I have lost a lot. Hehehe! Sayang! I am not talking about just one but many. What was I thinking?! Lazy much?!?! Tsk! Tsk! Anyways, bygones… they are all gone now. I can’t get them back. Oh well.. lesson learned.

Mood: super inis at myself

Water To Drink

babie — Sat, 10 Jul 2010 13:49:34 +0000

Whenever we have to drink water whenever we are not at home, I make sure that we ask for filtered water. There are times when we do not bring my daughter’s water jug and she gets thirsty easily so I have to ask clean drinking water every time. That is what I love about Amici. You can already see for yourself that the water that you drink goes through a water filter. So you know that your kid is drinking clean water. You do not even have to ask because it is already indicated. Plus ice is readily available.. all you have to do is to pull the lever and you have your ice cubes.

On Unforgettable Weddings

babie — Sat, 19 Jun 2010 14:24:43 +0000

The last wedding that I attended was my sister’s wedding and it was a wedding that was talked about for days on end. It was a wedding that showed the personality of both my sister and her husband. The place was beautiful, the food was delicious.. I could go on and on about it. But you should have been there to actually see and feel why everybody who attended loved it.

There is also a wedding that I really wanted to attend but was unable to because of my condition. When they got married I was put on bed arrest due to pregnancy complications. Good thing I have a facebook account so I was able to read about it and see the pictures. Anyways, for me to attend, I would have to travel all the way to Buxton and let me just say that it would have been worth it. I saw the pictures. It was awesome! How envious I was that I did not get to attend. A wedding venue buxton is a wedding every woman dreams of. The guests and family members raved about how beautiful the place was even the wedding reception venue buxton. How I wish I was able to see it personally! I heard that it can also be used as a civil partnership venue.

Highest Rate Of Vehicular Accidents Involve Motorcycles

babie — Sun, 06 Jun 2010 16:25:21 +0000

I see motorcycle accidents almost everyday. That is why I am extra careful when I see a motorcycle coming right at me or beside me. One can never be too careful and I do not want to be the cause of another person’s injury. There was even a time when I saw somebody who can no longer get up and it would seem that his arm is no longer connected the right way. It is gut wrenching seeing people like that. My husband used to ride his motorbike too. One of the wisest thing he ever did was to give it to his older brother so he does not get to use it anymore. His older brother though was involved in a recent accident. A kid ran in front of him while he was moving. The kid sustained injuries and needed a cast. The parents asked for injury claims even if it was the kid’s fault but since he was still a kid my brother-in-law paid what was asked from him. I would do that too if I were in their place. That was not the only accident that he had gotten himself into. He sustained injuries before. He was rushed to the emergency room. I am not that sure if he was able to get motorbike injury claims at that time. Although I hope he was able to. It is important that one should be able to fight for one’s rights especially if one sustains injury. One needs to pay for hospitalization and medicine expenses you know.

I do not know if there will come a time when I need to drive a motorcycle. If ever that happens and I get into an accident not caused by me (of course), I will definitely seek justice and make sure I get motorbike injury compensation.

Bonding Moment With Other Mommies

babie — Fri, 04 Jun 2010 14:02:24 +0000

This week I was able to bond with the other mommies who waited for their daughters. I was able to talk to them about what they do during the times when they are not waiting for their daughter’s class to finish. Well, one of them is a teacher but she owns the pre-school so she has the time to bring her daughter to and from school while the other one has lucrative investments. Her investments range from stocks to gold. She told me that you can never go wrong with it and now is the best time to buy gold bullion. She went on and on about it. I can somehow understand her fascination with gold because my grandfather who passed away was like that. He invested in gold.

Moving-Up Day Pictures Done

babie — Thu, 13 May 2010 07:18:33 +0000

Just got back from my daughter’s previous preschool and I already got her moving-up day pictures. The teachers were all there and they were amazed at how much my daughter has grown. I haven’t really noticed because we are always together so maybe she has grown or maybe she was just wearing pants which made her look a little taller. So getting the moving-up day pictures is one item off my list of things to do. I still have a couple of items left to do for this month and the list includes asking about asset based lending. Yeah, we hope that our plans of having our very own business will push through. I was able to ask a little about it at the bank but the bank personnel there lost me after speaking about it for 10 minutes. I need my husband when it comes to things like these. Besides, my daughter was getting bored already and she was all over the place which was also the reason why I was distracted.

Be Careful Of Strays

babie — Sat, 01 May 2010 13:50:34 +0000

Dogs are cute and adorable. But a person still has to take extra precautions when dealing with them especially stray ones. You do not know if they have been mistreated by a previous owner. So you will never know if they are out to attack you which is not really their fault because their experiences have taught them to be wary of all humans. Do you know that a lot of people have been bitten by dogs? Dog bites can be dangerous especially if the dogs have rabies. If you have been bitten, it is better to go to a doctor immediately to get anti-rabies shots. It is up to you if you want to contact an Austin dog bite lawyer after but the visit to the doctor is a must. A friend of mine has been recently bitten. That is why I always tell my daughter to be careful whenever a stray dog approaches her. We have taught her what she should do and not do when dogs (especially the ones that she is not familiar with) gets near her. She likes dogs you see. She must have gotten it from my mom who loves dogs too.
