Vacation Plans on Holiday Seasons

I’ve been reading and visiting sites and I learned that many of them are planning to go on a vacation or returning to home country. Here there are many promotional sales on ticket for a travel to Cebu, Davao, Bohol, Boracay, etc. You need to be very fast in reserving online to be able to book and secured slots for the promo. Speaking of vacation I have a former primary and secondary classmate who offered his house in Palawan if in case we happened to go there. If I have the time needed for that maybe I’ll plan to be there not just for one day but for a week or so. It’s nice for him to offer lodging as some all inclusive vacation packages are expensive during holiday seasons. That way we can save our money and use it for other necessities .

:Thursday Challenge - Youth (Children)

"YOUTH" (Young, Energetic, Optimistic, Children, Baby, Education,...)


These are the young energetic CHILDREN in our Church Sunday school and this picture was taken in our camp meeting last December. They were having some games here as they were being taught by our youth teachers. The children like the place there in Villa Dominga because they can run and have games with so much space and fresh air while we were just nearby at the conference hall having fellowship service. We'll go there again on December and my kids are all excited, they're counting the days now!

Comparing Health Insurance

I’m not really into getting much insurance to cover my family’s immediate needs for hospitalization and other emergency requirements. I’m contented with what we have for now which is the government health insurance which is mandatory for all government and private companies. This health insurance is easy to maintain as it’s very affordable and amount is automatically deducted to our salary. I and hubby are both members but when I quit regular employment I stopped paying for my premiums because hubby’s membership covers the whole family. Well this is good enough for us but it’s also limited unlike other insurances which cover a lot more. I’m thinking of getting another one and I’m glad that I can get health insurance lead to search and compare affordability and coverage of other health insurance companies.

:Today's Flowers #65

Click the image to enlarge

This is quite extra ordinary as it's a creeping flower plant that grows creeping around wood or any wall that it's been set up to. It's my first time to see this kind of flower which is one of the flowers grown by Josh' school. I thought that this is an upside down flower of some sorts. I don't the name of this pretty dropped down red flower so if anyone knows the name please help me!

Happy Monday! Visit more beautiful flowers at Today's Flower => here.

Checking Out Prices!

Time is running so fast and another 6 weeks more it will be Christmas and of course days before that will be my birthday also. I need to know the price of some gadgets I want for myself and since I’m not in the mood to shop around the mall I contented myself with surfing for those things. Anyway all of them are always on the net, shopping is no problem these days as long as you have the money. Online stuff are available on many sites and I tried to find my to-buy lists on Cyber Monday Specials. Of course I want discounts and sale items, who wouldn’t? Now I have an estimated amount of all those things, next question is when to buy them.

Taking a Nap to Relax

I had a relaxing afternoon yesterday when I let myself take a nap for about two hours before returning to my online tasks. I don’t usually give myself such pampering but I was on a bad blogging schedule for the past two weeks doing my online works until dawn. It started when I pushed with my bathroom renovation project where I supervised the workers almost full time and let all my works be done in the evening up to midnight and until dawn.

It was a bad schedule for me because my blood pressure went down due to lack of sleep. I wish I could have a vacation package just like the Outer Banks vacation rentals I’ve heard from my friend. But because it’s still school season I don’t have a choice but to post phone any plans I have regarding vacation. I can’t imagine leaving my three kids to my Mom while I’m relaxing on a cottage by the beach.

:PH#185: Veterans/Military

For this week's theme I'm posting one of my shots from Josh educational tour. Picture was taken at Philippine Airforce Museum where many of military pins, badges, patches and memorabilias were preserved. It was nice seeing all those military pins, uniform, equipment and everything about Philippine Airforce.

Always Have Clear Copies

As we passed by a store that sells DVD movies Josh urged me to buy one for him. I didn’t say no to him but told him ‘later’ as I’ve had an experience with buying DVD’s with that store. The movie has no sound and the copy is not clear. I can understand sometimes those people who prefer the original ones as the copies are really clear and you have a peace of mind that you’re buying the original and not just copies. And speaking of very precise and clear copies my hubby told me to buy bluray disc player and disc to get my desired clarity. He’s right and I’ll take his advice.

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.
