Bonfire At The Camp

God has given us a good weather for our camp meeting. We prayed for the sun to shine because we’re using our tents and planned to sleep on it. We also had our bonfire on the first night of our fellowship. We prayed for the stars and not the rain and God has given us what we prayed. It was really a cold night and the fire in the middle of us gave us warmth to stay there for about two hours. We had barbeques and a lot of sharing.

Travel To Our Camp Site

Wow! Just got back from a three-day camp meeting fellowship in Indang, Cavite just a few kilometers away from Tagaytay. Actually we passed by Tagaytay on our way to our camp site. It was a safe and nice travel with slight rain showers along to give us a colder temperature inside the car, actually I’m chilling lol!

After just a few hours we reached our new camp site – Villa Dominga Forest Resort in Lumampong, Halayhay, Indang, Cavite, a 6 hectare land full of flowering shrubs, fruit trees, resort, retreat house and conference halls. The place is so nice and wide that all the kids ran through the grassy fields outside the conference hall while we were arranging our things. That’s so perfect for the camp meeting activities for children.

Here’s sharing some of our pics on our first day:

Bags All Packed for Camp Meeting

Got our bags all packed for our December camp meeting and we're all excited for the 3-day camp fellowship ahead of us. I've filed my leave early last week for today because I really need the whole day to check and pack everything we need, actually I started last night. I'm a heavy traveler always bringing extras on clothes and food so if it's a 3-day camp you'll be shocked to see baggage good for 5 days lol! Anyway it's useful on this camp we have now as the place is really far from everything, the nearest market is 90 minutes drive so it's really better to have some extras on the side. Justified lol!

Boy I was so tense that I might not beat the time as we also had our company's party today and I can't snob it so after everything's ready and packed I went to Gerry's Grill in Libis near our office to attend, have some dinner, watch out the fun and raffle. It's a right decision as my boss keep on looking for me to help him see that our employees are well served. Cash raffle prizes kept on pouring in but no luck for me again as usual, I'm not lucky on raffle. The moment the party was ended we claimed our attendance fee of 500 bucks and back to our house.

Awareness on Mesothelioma

When I was young I always heard about the uses of asbestos in many things. Its use extends to workplaces, dwellings, buildings and many other areas where this so-called miracle mineral was used. I remember seeing it on ceilings because it is known to withstand and diminish heat.

Few years back it was found a major hazard to human health if inhaled and exposure to this can cause lung cancer and mesothelioma. Those who have incurred mesothelioma are those people who worked in industries where their work exposed them to particles of asbestos. I was relieved to know that this mineral miracle was already banned.

My Birthday With My Churchmates

After 5 years my birthday falls on a Sunday again and it's more special to me. My church mates keeps on teasing me to have a grand celebration and I just smiled at them. Anyway I've really planned to have some celebration because our group loves cooking and eating together whenever there's an occasion. Actually if there's no birthdays or anniversaries we always think of something to celebrate just to have some eating together.

My mom-in-law brought two large bilao of biko con langka and I've brought 2 trays of brownies which for me are the perfect match for spaghetti. As usual our dear sisters helped us in cooking 5 kilos of pasta. I was so touched that my church mates always lend a hand in preparing my blowout for the whole church.
It was a happy celebration and I thanked God for giving me loving family, thoughtful friends and a warm community of church mates. The day ended with much happiness and I'm glad to reach this stage of my life with gratitude to my Lord that He has blessed me not with so much material things but with the real riches of peace, love and faith. Thank you Lord!

School Christmas Party

Thank God it's the last day of my girls in school and it's their Christmas party. Spent my night wrapping their exchange gifts and something for their teachers. I always give gifts to my kids' teachers on this season to give thanks and gratitude for their untiring efforts given to their students.

My mom is a retired teacher and I remember her having many gifts from her students even if they're not her advisory class, she's always been the students' favorite because of her kind and caring ways to students. She even give food and money to those students who go to school without allowance.

Since they're big girls now Ruth is 11 and Gen is turning 10 next month they choose their own clothes and you can let them go on their school christmas parties all by themselves, of course they have their service cars. Since Jollibee and Shakey's didn't go back on their proposed food orders I dropped by at the nearest J store to buy my kids food for lunch. I just let them go earlier and I followed after buying their chicken and burgers.

For the last five years in their elementary days I always took a halfday leave to accompany them but this time I only had a few hours stay in school and went to my office just an hour late. I've only watched them participate on some games and when I think it's ok for me to go I decided to leave the school.Time flies fast and before we knew it our children will no longer be kids but just as long as they need our caring and love they will always be our babies.

Finding the Best Car Insurance

I love traveling on a car to different places that’s why I always see to it that we have the best benefits of auto insurance to ensure that no matter what happens we’re safely covered. Insurance is very important and without it your travel can be of danger to you, your family and the car itself. We love traveling as a family especially on our church camp meeting fellowship where we held our fellowship service on faraway places. We usually go to places that are quiet, serene and far from the bustling city.

We seriously spent time and money to maintain our car in good condition and be updated in our car insurance so that if anything happens we would be covered by an insurance company who would take care of all expenses. It’s just that sometimes insurance quotes are so expensive that others can’t afford it. I was pleased to know that Nlgha offers comparison of various insurance such as car insurance, health, life and home insurance from various reputable insurance companies. This is the best way to get cheap car insurance because you’ll have the ability to compare and choose the best deal available. They also have car insurance guide to help you learn the basic things needed to compare and purchase insurance for your car. After all it’s always good to know what you need to know.

Josh' School Program

Have accompanied my son Josh to their school program, no costume for this year just a red santa cap on their head. He didn't advised me what they will be doing in the program, he just told me that they will sing, no props, no costumes, no everything just their presence. I was worried that they have some little instrument or accessory to bring but there's no notes on their notebooks and not even a hint on the notice. Oh well it's ok for me just as long as Josh is happy.

Almost missed the first part but just in time for the opening prayer. As always kids were so cute in their different dresses, polo and slacks. Children are always cute for me! I always find something nice about them. The program went smoothly with much effort from their teachers who guided them in their various presentation. Oh boy they just can't seem to run out of talents-the teachers I mean! They can sing, dance and do anything just to make that their students will perform nicely, some kids are not moving though lol!
Josh' group was the last group to perform and I laughed as he sings, moves, turn around and jumps with much effort with a little winking on me as he moves, funny little boy!

Debt Consolidation Advices

Many people are burdened with too much debt that their monthly salaries are not enough to cover their monthly loan payments, let alone think of where they will get the money for their everyday expenses. I’ve been thinking what leads us to this financial situation. It must be over spending on things that are not our basic necessities.

It’s not bad to buy the things that you want just as long as you can afford it and better if you will save for it. Another thing is using many credit cards to buy unnecessary items, sometimes people have the thinking that it’s ok to splurge on a shopping spree if you’re using credit cards. Others depend on different loans like emergency loan when they need immediate cash which is good only if the need is urgent because the interest rates are usually high.

Financial crisis can enter our lives and we must be extra careful with finding solutions like avoiding getting loans from companies with high interest rates. We can consider asking help from our rich relatives or getting some advice from debt consolidation companies which offers good solution to debt problems. They will help you consolidate your credit card balances and various loans into one single loan which will enable you to recover because you’ll only be paying one low monthly payment.

Debt consolidators will negotiate your existing loans so you’ll be able to pay only what you really can afford, no pressure and no worries. Best thing also is they will give advices on proper money management, saving money and getting yourself in control of your finances. It’s really good to consolidate debt because it’s one way of getting out of bad credit reputation and you’ll soon be debt-free in two to three years. So if you want great peace of mind start calling them now at 1-888-314-1402 and consult for free.
