New Eyeglasses for Me

I love my new eyeglasses which I bought last month. I got it from the moving optical store that serves offices in our place. They’ve been in the business for several years now giving personalized services to employees right at their working places. They would call to schedule their free eye check-up and after the check-up they would show their branded sets of eyeglasses. I actually don’t want to buy as I have 3 old eyeglasses which I think is enough for my various activities but when I laid my eyes on the purple frame I can’t get my eyes off. 

It’s nice that they offer installments because employees will not be able to afford sudden big cash on eyeglasses right away. Anyway there’s no hassle in buying as they collect every payday and their price is still competitive compared to branded eyeglasses on mall stores. Since I know that I’m getting a good deal I gave myself a prize for working hard and bought the purple Levis frame and lens. I was asking if they have roberto cavalli sun glasses because my friend need to buy a new pair of sun glasses for his field office work. Well as expected they have no current stock as their big stocks are more on the eyeglasses but they promised to look for me.

Relaxing Outdoor Activities

When we had a vacation in the summer capital we visited all the known places there and lingered on the park more than any other places. It’s where the kids had some real fun times because they did some biking and boating which they can’t do often when we’re in our home. As expected they didn’t want to stop not until they’ve seen that it’s getting darker and felt the cold breeze in their skins. Still they have more capabilities to withstand cold, at least better than I was. Even when I’m dressed in full protective gear against cold I was not able to ignore the freezing weather. 

When one of our friend tried riding on a horse my little boy asked me if they have to wear riding apparel like rj classics with matching riding boots and all. He has this idea that one should be dressed properly to be able to ride the horse in the park. Well any rider should have protective gear also but if they will only ride for half an hour with the complete assistance of staff maybe it will not be required. All in all our vacation proved to be so relaxing, happy and the whole family has bonded a lot.

Extra Coverage for Liabilities

Many people rely highly on their insurances for the things they need in their lives. They never fail to get insurances for their properties like houses, lots, cars and even on their health. It makes them feel secured that no matter what happen they can claim enough money for the coverage of their properties when stolen or damaged. For them security means getting reliable insurance companies to take care of themselves and their properties when the going gets tough. They actually have a point there because I’ve seen how my former boss wisely use every inch of his insurance whenever his cars met accidents or when one of his properties suffered fire damages. 

 In view of this I was thinking that this kind of people should also have umbrella liability insurance just in case their claim exceeds their policy limits. Well for some people their coverage might not be enough when things get tough. This will be very applicable to certain cases like the recent accidents occurred with some buses where they hit accidents on high flyovers. Few months ago I was astounded to hear one bus dropped off the highest skyway road because of driver’s reckless manoeuvring. I’m sure his operator did dream that he has excess liability for the damages incurred.

Getting the Best Deals in Shopping


I love surfing online stores and at times I shop online because of the tempting coupons and deals I chanced upon. I’m a frugal Mom and though I enjoy shopping for my family I see to it that I get the best deals in the market before I splurge. Lately I’m so fond of getting food and restaurants deal coupons and my kids are always excited for my next purchase. 

Now I’m thinking of buying my latest camera wish online but when I think of the shipping cost I became hesitant of purchasing it. If only I can get free shipping coupon that would allow international free shipping I would have bought it. The price is really way too low compared to the price here but it has to be shipped to reach me. I really want the camera but I’m still in doubt where should I buy it, maybe in the next few weeks I’ll be able to decide wisely.

Nice Place for Worship


With our new area for fellowship for more than a month now we feel so blessed that we were given a privilege to use the whole of the wide 5th floor area for our church service. We’re still renting one of the adjacent rooms in the lower floor but the management allowed us to use the spacious area in the upper most floors while it’s vacant. After we’ve finally set up the place we feel like it’s really for us. Now there are plenty of rooms where we can neatly arrange our activities. 

We can also cook if we want because the area gave us a spacious pantry, 2 extra rooms for functional use such as Sunday school, Pastor’s prayer room, youth corner and a lot more. Of course if our fellowship’s place is to be considered we should be replenishing our things to match the place. We were thinking of buying new musical instruments, new stacking church chairs and everything that will help in enhancing our new place. As the place is so convenient and just right for us we’re wishing that we’ll stay there for long period of time

Reliable AC Repair and Maintenance

Working is a mixture of fulfillment, excitement, hard work and sometimes little inconveniences that you have to suffer when you’re at it. Some employers can provide the best accommodation and facilities for their employees but for others they just content themselves with giving just the basic essentials. In my work I’m happy and contented that my employer have chosen a cozy building in renting for our office space. If others felt the super summer heat last March and April we didn’t because when you’re inside the premises of the building it always feels like cold season of the year. We have a control panel of the centralized air conditioning system that includes on and off buttons only so I guess the coolness level is the same as all offices in this 33-storey office building. We actually turns off the ac at late morning and turn it on after our lunch break which will last around two hours only and it will be off until we depart. 


I was thinking that the building administrator has gotten a reliable maintenance service for their air conditioning system because it’s always at its peak condition which is very important for office environment. Just like our ac system here those living in Austin and nearby areas can get their residential and commercial air conditioning services from a trusted company like that of ac repair austin which provide personal, fast and reliable service around the area.

Missing Wahm's Days

I've been very lazy lately with posting our family activities here. Not lazy in the real sense but very busy actually. Having two jobs is not a joke and sometimes I feel like giving up my regular job. Not that I don't love my job as this is the job that I can honestly say I love my colleagues but it's taking most of my time. The Mom in me always want to be with my kids and I can't do that when I'm away here working until 6pm. I also miss serving my Mom with surprise fave foods which I did when I was working at home. Those times were priceless moments when we're the ones left in the house when the kids were in school. We both love to cook and prepare yummy desserts and that's where we perfectly bond. Really missed those days!

Keeping Yourself Fit & Healthy

Today’s generation try to live a healthier lifestyle because occurrence of life threatening diseases keep coming to a dangerous level that defies no age. In this aspect people are in search of better ways of living, healthy meals to eat and alternative ways on how to keep our body healthy and fit. A year ago when I was just working at home and have plenty of time I indulged in cardio and aerobic exercises and even tried some Zumba and Taebo. I had a great time with working out for a minimum of 1 hour daily for 5 days a week routine. It has done plenty of benefits for my body inside and out. Now I am missing it as I’ve committed myself to a regular office job which robbed me of my exercise time. 

Workout and exercises are recommended for people who want to have a healthy and fit physique because it eliminates excess fat and trim down your body in a good proportion. For those men who wants to add muscles to their body they can enroll in a specific program that will specifically promotes muscle growth. Most men react positively with workout regimen which after some months of regular routine achieves their muscles and gains a different stronger feeling. But for others who wants to be assured that they get their muscles growth fast they can try some bodybuildingfactory products that help improve muscle gains and extra strength. 

We just have to be extra careful in taking body building supplements because others has a lot of promises but produce no results. We should read reviews and mark sites that offer noticeable results which add muscle mass and lose stubborn fat deposits in our body. It’s not all about muscles but that of your overall weight and strength gains which is very important in this season of sickness. By keeping yourself fit and strong you’ll have better resistance to prevailing sicknesses.

Managing Your Family’s Expenses

There are plenty of bills to attend to whenever a month closes by and a semi-monthly earner like me should learn how to handle finances to manage all of the bills and family’s needs. My online work is a great help in my money management because it adds up to my monthly budget. I depend on it to pay for my kids’ school fees which are a little bit expensive as they’re all studying in private schools. My friend keep telling me that I’m lucky with my two jobs but I can only say that it’s not all luck because it’s mainly hard work. 

Most of the times I spent my rest hours doing my online work so instead of relaxing in front of television with my kids I spent it thinking of good ideas and articles to write. I’m not complaining because for me it’s a blessing and I know when I retire from office work I could always count on my online work to support my financial needs because I can just do it in the comfort of my home with no age limit. Speaking of retirement, some of my friends who retire early in life and are waiting for their lump sum retirement pay will be happy to hear that they can purchase annuity payments for their lump sum cash. Most of them needs cash this opening of classes and it’s a relief that they can use some of their money now.

A Real Handy

DH has free time now as he stopped his summer job in a cable company to attend his classes these coming days. I’m happy that he was able to help me with covering the little boy’s notebooks and books which is a bit hard for me since I have plenty of office job and when I reached home I’m super tired from my travel home. He even attended to minor repairs of appliances in the house and with the use of some of his electronics and hand tools he was able to repair our dryer and a kitchen appliance. He’s a real handy when it comes to house things and I’m lucky to have a husband who always help and assists me with my chores in the house. With my hectic schedule and full work load now I really need some help.
