Nice Treatment for Your Nails

I happened to see my former office friend whom I’ve never seen in two years. As always few hours are not enough for us to talk about everything that we’re doing right now. We talked about our families, our other friends and what’s keeping our time now. She resigned from office ahead of me and she ventured into her own business. Busy schedule and lots of responsibilities kept us away for months without communication and we were so happy to see each other now and took advantage of the day to update each other. I told her that I’ve started working at home and doing some online works. I was surprised that she has ventured into a different business now. She’s into nail care products business and as such I asked about how she came into this kind of business. We both have sensitivity in our nails even before we were together and the desire to solve her problem lead to some research that helped her. She wanted to help others so she built a clinic and store for it.

One of the first things that you will notice in people especially women when you come to meet them is their nails. Having clean and well maintained nails is very becoming and a plus factor to a woman’s total look. I have sensitive nails and I’ve thought of every possible solution to make it healthy and strong. This includes applying moisturizers and lotion during cold season to beat the dryness. We should treat our hands and nails with special treatment once in a while to make it look and feel wonderful just like our face and hair. Anyway treatment can be done in your own home if you don’t have time to go to salon like my cousin who has someone who goes to her house to clean and put nail polish on her. It feels wonderful having your hands and feet get special attention.

Now back to my office friend she’s still looking for other nail care products that she needs for her business. She wanted variety so we browsed online for such things and we came upon www.nailsinc.com which offers wide range of high quality nail polishes and nail care products with different variants. Their products are chip resistant and easy to dry. They also have plenty of nail treatments and accessories, just about everything you need to pamper your nails.

What attracted me are the complete nail treatment pack for weak and peeling nails. It’s all I need for my problem nails and hands. It will be a good treatment for bendy nails. The kit includes express remover wipe, cuticle oilpen, 4 way buffer, hyde park base coat and albert bridge super glossy top coat. Check them out for your own particular needs, my friend already did.

Medical Legal Illustration


I’ve been using the PC for almost 20 hours a day and most of the times I feel pain in my wrist due to constant typing and manipulation of mouse. It’s not new to me as I’ve been a constant user of computer ever since I graduated from college. I’ve graduated with a course in computer engineering so it follows that every job I take me always have a PC as my working tool. I even had a job which requires me to work sometimes on a straight 72 hours with just meals and one hour sleep as break from using PC. It was hard on your back and on your wrist plus a lot of deprivation in sleep. I was just lucky that I didn’t develop a wrist problem which is so much like arthritis.

I was even warned by my sister years ago that research has found a certain ailment which is made worse by severe misuse of our wrist like using it in a wrong position of keyboards in computer. Her officemate has been diagnosed having a Carpal Tunnel Syndrome and she was advised to rest her wrist as her sickness might worsen if she’ll not heed the advice. Their office alarmingly changed the position in each computer they have because their doctor confirmed that wrong positioning of wrist while typing will worsen the newly found ailment. It’s best to rule out all possibilities of having it.

Nowadays medical professionals find it easy to discuss to their patients the theories and facts about sickness and diseases by way of using medical visual aids Medical Legal Illustration. MediVisuals made it possible for medical experts to inform and guide their patients through medical legal illustrations for various medical reasons. It greatly helps in determining the extent of injuries for workers’ cases, injury lawsuits and other cases where medical illustrations are needed. It facilitates a better understanding of a more detailed inside view of the human’s body and an accurate medical conditions that can be use to settle arguments.

:Thursday Challenge - "Food"

"FOOD" (Fruit, Vegetables, Cookies, Candy, Meals, Food for Animals, Feast, Hungry,...)

My entry for this week is our food feast last year when my friend Jen and I attended a get together dinner with our old friends. We're all busy so we decided to have potluck meaning each of us will bring some food for the occasion, no pressure, no price, just anything that we want to bring. When we finally unwrap our foods we laughed because some have the same kind. We have two bilaos of pancit, two packs of lechon manok and two pork liempo. It's good that we also have fruit salad, some mushroom steak, plenty of pika pika foods (chips) and various kinds of drinks mostly softdrinks and iced tea. And we love the hershey's kisses on our table courtesy of the host, they have plenty!

Sleep Deprived

Still feeling sleepless even after a four-hour sleep. I've been working hard every night that I only get around 1-2 hours of sleep for four days because when I work until dawn I also have to wake up before 5am to prepare food and things for my two daughters and then my youngest and hubby. After they were all off to school and office that's the time that I'll do all my offline and online tasks. Pretty much like an ordinary mommy :-) but I'm not accustomed to having afternoon siesta as I've worked for less than 20 years in various jobs and sleeping is not allowed of course except on lunch breaks. I'm not one of those who rests or sleeps on breaks that's why I'm not so keen on afternoon breaks. But I would want to in the future so I can recover from dawntime OT , just a little adjustment I think!

Trying Out New Recipes and Restaurants

If there’s one thing that satisfies me that’s cooking and I think it’s already in my blood and veins. No matter how busy I am or how hectic my schedule is I always make it my pleasure to cook for my family. I’m an experimental cook which means that I don’t cook according to book because I always put something of my original spices and style in what I’m cooking. I’m also a very economical cook that I always find a way when the needed ingredients are no longer available or too expensive to buy. Cooking is a wide field of people trying to put their heart into what they’re doing. I always believe that it’s already in my heart ever since I was young.

I was born into a family of musicians and cooks. My grandparents on both sides were the community cook whenever there’s a wedding or feast. They even made some money out of cooking. Even though I wasn’t trained by them as they died when I was a child I grew up in a home where cooking binds the family. My Mom used to bake our birthday cakes and cooks very well too. Now that she’s not that strong to cook her always gives me some tips on cooking.

I’m trying out chicken and pork dishes in a baked-style cooking as per request of hubby and my kids. Though it took me more time than cooking it the traditional way it brings me happiness that I can make them happier by preparing extra ordinary meals. I’m now into experimenting various style in cooking spare ribs and trying out some nice sauces. But for those who really have no time to cook you can treat your family once in a while in nice restaurant that serve impeccable dishes and I’m sure they’ll be happy dining out somewhere for a change.

I happened to have a chat with one of my former officemate now living in Manhattan and we’ve been talking about good old days when we hop around restaurant in Libis for some good fine dinner. I told her to check out Rosie O'Grady's, one of the leading Restaurants In Midtown Manhattan where they serve the finest steak and seafoods. Tourists frequent the place as they’re just about the area near Times Square, Rockefeller Center and a walking distance to major museums. It was a nice location and superb foods so there’s no stopping my friend now. She’s a real fanatic of fine dining restaurant especially upon looking at their menu like this one : The Prix Fixe Lunch Menu.

Learned My Lessons Well!

I think I’m staying up late this evening as I’ve got a long list of tasks to do. I’ve learned my lesson now I will not do my tasks on due dates. That habit has affected me a lot and I’ve scolded myself for doing so. I’ll finish all my tasks due for tomorrow even if my sleep will just be a dream. It’s always better to be early than running for deadlines. I hate that habit of mine and promised myself I’ll change. From this day on I’ll leave a one day allowance for the tasks so if there’s a correction of problem I’ll be able to manage it.

Accessories for the Whole Family

I’ve always liked looking at gadgets and techie items and its accessories. Now that my kids are growing up they’re more attracted to nice things like HTC Pure Accessories for their own mobile phones. I remember buying my second kid mobile charms with her favorite character for her cellular phone. Now she’s asking if she can have one of those HTC Pure Cases we saw just the other week. Anyway I still have to see it to be able to decide if I’ll buy it and I also have to look for other HTC Accessories like memory cards and cases. I really need them now.

My Home is Not Haunted

Just took this test for fun and I'm glad that the result is ok, I don't actually want a result that will say that my home is haunted :-)

Your Home Is Not Haunted

There's nothing particularly creepy about your home. Anything you notice is probably quite normal.
You probably already knew that your home isn't haunted. In fact, you may not even believe in homes being haunted.

Your home is welcoming, warm, and comfortable. Even on the coldest and deadest of nights, you feel safe.
Your home is the perfect place to watch a terrifying horror movie. No matter how scared you get, you'll sleep soundly afterwards.
