No Difference To Me

Clams is one of my favorite seafood. Ever since when i was young i love eating clams already and until now, i still love it, i can't even get enough of it. Even though that i only get frozen clams here since you cannot find ocean that is close to where we live. I wasn't aware that this food is an aphrodisiac. One of my blogger friends told me about it. I was so surprised that this food could enhance to someone's sexual desire once that person eats it. I really don't have knowledge about this until someone told me.

But anyway, because of my curiosity, i googled it and found the answers myself. It is indeed that clams is one of aphrodisiac food. But what funny is, i don't really know what they are talking about because i never feel such a thing like my sexual desire towards my husband is being enhanced! lol! Seriously though, there is no difference for me at all, whether i eat this kind of food or not, still i always submit myself to my husband because i believe that a wife should submit herself to her husband no matter what. My mother told me that if a woman is being submissive to her man, marriage will lasts long and it makes the love grow more fonder and alive.

Sunny Day

I am so happy that it's sunny outside. The snow has stopped for at least today i am so relieved! My son got so excited after i picked him up from school because he knows he can play outside with his daddy. He asked his daddy to go out with him in our backyard and bring one of his balls so he could enjoy playing outside. His daddy told him that he wanted to go for a walk, our son got so excited even more.

They are outside now and nowhere to be seen. My husband and our son loves to go for a walk when the sun is out. Not me! Weather something like this, yes sunny but the wind is still cold, i would not dare to go out with them and enjoy the day outside. I would prefer to stay here in front of my computer and play my games rather than being cold outside even though i have thick coat i am wearing. I am not really fond of winter, i hate the freezing cold air outside that makes me sick. I don't know why my husband and my son seems like they are not affected to the cold air outside, maybe they are used to it somehow, but definitely not me! Even though i've been here for five years now, still i don't like winter.

Alarming Situation

I have not heard this illness that is called Mesothelioma not until i watched the series from a local show that i have been watching. I didn't know that this Asbestos could cause someone's life in danger! From what i saw to this series i have been following, poor people in the community has this problem from inhaling this thing from the company which is few feet away from their neighborhood. Mostly kids are affected to it, and i feel so bad knowing that this is happening in real life. They are just portraying what really happened to awaken the big companies that they should do the proper disposing of their wastes. Such an alarming situation, and i feel so sorry for those poor people that can't do anything about it because big companies can just get away from it by paying the department of health office, so they won't be put into scandal.

Sweet Little Potato

My little potato is really a sweet baby. He is a little more bubbly unlike my eldest one. When my eldest was a baby he was a quiet boy. I can't even tell he is awake already not until he pushes his musical toy and plays music. They have different characteristics, the youngest one is friendly and my eldest is shy. My youngest one smiles a lot while my eldest one gets scared if someone is trying to hold him or even just smiling at him. Well, i must say that my eldest one must be like me, i was like that when i was a little girl. I don't easily give my smile to everyone especially to those people i don't know. But my youngest one is like his dad, easily gives smile to everyone even if he doesn't know the person he is smiling to. They are both sweet to us though, it's just that i see their different characters. When my eldest one was a baby he likes to hug his security blanket, but his baby brother likes to hug his brown bear that someone gave it to him before he even was born. Just look at this sweet picture i captured in his crib early in the morning....

Family Insurance

Family is our top priority with my husband. We always make sure that our family is in good hands. That's why we got the best insurance for us, parents and for our dear kids. I just love how husband thinks of such things like this because he is really thinking ahead and looking ahead for the sake of our kids. He is always ready whatever the problems may come. The insurance that we have is really a great deal one, we can always depend on it whenever we need it. In fact, we suggested our family friend to have the same insurance like what we have and soon as they got their instant life insurance quote, they told us that it is indeed a great deal one. Until now they still has it and they are planning to keep it.

Mac Book Memory

Before i bought my laptop i was considering to buy a mac book. But some friends said that it's better to have windows than mac book. Some of them also told me that mac book is better than windows. Different choices of people and different features of each of the technology. A friend of mine has one mac book and she just barely had hers bought. She was the one who is been convincing me to replace my laptop into mac book because she knew that i love music and some other stuff that it is better to have in mac book. She also mentioned that she has no trouble of her mac memory since there is plenty that she can store her favorite files in her mac book as much as she can.

Falling In Love Is Delicate Issue

How do you fall in love? Do you wait for someone to do the first move or you do the first move? I myself fell in love once before i met my husband. I had a long time relationship to this guy but as what most people say, long term relationship don't last very often. And that's what happened to us, we parted our ways. When i met my husband, i wasn't really sure if that pain in my heart was healed totally already. My husband was being nice to me when we first met, he was a very gentleman, caring and thoughtful.

I was trying to say that i don't fall inlove easy, but if i do, i stick to that someone real closely. I am one caring, loving and a very thoughtful person as well. I can give my everything for the sake of that person i love. I didn't fell inlove with my husband right away since i was thinking then what's gonna happen to us in the future. But then destiny worked its own way. We got married and blessed with three kids. I didn't regret that i decided to get to know more about my husband when he visited me first time back home, he is one imperfect person that his imperfection makes him perfect. He's got some shortcomings but that didn't stopped me from loving him everyday, he is one great guy and he is one man a woman should be looking for to be a husband. I am so lucky and blessed having him as my partner in life.

I was just wondering why some people fall inlove so easy? Do you really call that as true love or is just a call of body's desire? You know what i mean! I can't seem to think how to fall inlove from one person to another in just a small span of time! Some of them are bragging how inlove they were to their partners but then soon after you know, that bragging person is now inlove with someone else??? And then little bit after they split, that someone is again, inlove to someone else??? I just don't get it!!! Is that really love??? Or purely lust??? I don't lift myself up here but that's just what i noticed to the others. And that someone i knew used to criticized someone before, but look at that someone now, doing the same thing just like what the other is doing before. I just feel so sorry for that someone....I still hope that someone will find and learn what really true love is....

Online Prisoner

People nowadays are pretty much online prisoner, especially to those who are far away from their loved ones like me. I am living here in the other side of the world while my family lives back to my country home. Thousands and miles away to fly just to see them and it is very impossible for me to see them as much as i would love to due to the pricey airfare. That's why most of us like me finds the internet so advantage for us to reach our loved ones whose far away from our reach. I cannot just simply live without my laptop, it will make me go crazy if i cannot open it as soon as i get up.

Being online is part of my daily routine, and without even checking my online world makes me weak, lol! Truly, i guess because i have nothing to do here aside from taking care of my family, other than that, nothing else more. Being online is quite and entertainment for me. If i have problems and i have no one to talk to because hubby is at work, i get to talk to my friends who are always there for me to listen. Also i can divert my emotion to the games i play, or watch my favorite local shows back home. There are tons of different things that i can do here. Not to mention that i also make money out of it, through blogging. I really am glad that online world is being introduced to me so well. And i don't really care at all if someone calls me an "ONLINE PRISONER".

Stainless Drum

Hubby just barely got home. I asked him what took him so long since he usually comes home around thirty minutes after he gets off from work. He told me he went straight to the store where he can buy stainless steel drums right after his work and bought a big one for him to use. He is going to put something on it and will store it in the shed. When he comes home late, it makes me worried because i have no way to contact him since we both don't have cellphones. I have the little advantage because i am at home and if he has problems or has some trouble, he could just phone me. But this afternoon, he made me so worried, i really thought something happened to him. I am glad he just went to the store to get that stainless drum that he need.

Getting Ready For The Trip

I need to get my boys's passports. The early the better, since i have to take care both of theirs. My oldest one's passport is about to expire soon on his birthday and this little one of mine has no passport yet. We are planning to go home this coming June, we still got plenty of time to do it but i don't want to rush time that's why i wanted to get them done right away. I have to get ready all the requirements that is need for their passports. I just renewed mine last year.

We had our awesome trip last year to San Francisco where i renewed my passport. We got to see the Golden Gate Bridge which was my first time being there. Lovely indeed. But anyway, i also want to make a list what i need to bring for my dear family such as perfumes, bottles of shampoos, conditioners and a lot of chocolate. I am really excited now since June is not too long to wait. But please don't tell my family yet, they didn't know i am going home, hehe...

He Is Curious Alright

I was watching television earlier and there was a commercial about weight loss formula. My son asked me what was it all about. I answered him in a very simple way for him to understand since he is only a kid that can't really understand what it is all about. I told him it's for the people that wanted to lose weight because they have extra fats that they want to get rid of. Or the formula are for those people that just simply wants to look awesome and wanted to maintain their healthy looking body enable for them to look more pleasant. He might not understand what i was trying to tell him right now but sure he will figure it out later when he is grown enough to understand these kind of things.

Frustrating Sometimes

I noticed lately that my oldest one is not eating good like what he is supposed to. I have been trying to prepare some good food that i think he would get interested to eat it but to no avail, i failed. He is not picky at all it is just i think he lost his appetite and i worry about him. He plays a lot but then very little food he only take from here and there. Hubby said that i should not get worried to much since he bites food from here and there. But since i am a "Worry-all-the-time-mother" as what my husband calls me, i am not happy at all seeing my son not eating properly. I even used some tricks to him so he would have the interests to eat the food i prepare for him. Ughhh, sometimes being a mother can be frustrating especially times like this, kids don't eat like what you wanted them to and what they are supposed to.

Exciting Vacation

I finally called my friend from North Carolina which is my neighbor back home. She said she is going home which made me excited because we are planning to go home as well with my two boys. I am not sure though if hubby will follow us because he will be depending how many days of vacation he can get from his work. But anyway, we didn't really talked that long on the phone because she was heading to run some errands plus she has to renew their NC health insurance. She said that she needs to get the things all done before she leave because her husband can't take care of all that since he is really a busy businessman that has something to take care too himself. I will call her again later to talk more about her vacation and we are really both excited because everytime she goes home i am here and everytime i go home she is here, we never get the chance to see each other there back home, i bet this is gonna be an exciting vacation for us.

A Good Meet

Yesterday when i went to the store to get some groceries and met my friend. We have not seen each other for a long time, i think it's been 2 years since i last saw her. So we talked for a little bit and asked each other what we're up to. And she told me that her husband has different jobs now, he is now in Texas and she will be following him with their kids. He just barely got his job where they make safety products . I can say that it is a real nice job for him, he has been unemployed for awhile and they were both happy that he finally found a good opportunity and will start their life there in another state. I wish her luck with her family and we bid goodbye right after i checked out my groceries from the cashier.

I Could Not Ask For More

That's right! What i am going to ask for more since i already have everything that makes me happy. I have a very wonderful husband that is always there for me no matter what and a very thoughtful partner in life. I also have two adorable kids that always entertains me in so many ways, whether to annoy me or to make me laugh. A lot of people say that money is everything, but for me it isn't the most important, it's my family that i get the chance to take care of and to see them everyday happy and healthy is everything to me.

My eldest son is going to turn 5 years old this coming May and it just made me think where did those years go? Seems like he was just a baby yesterday and he was just a little turkey in my lap. But now, he is a grown kid and in school already. Kids grow so fast and before the parents know it, they already wants to borrow the car key so they can take off!!! But for now, i am going to try my best to enjoy every moment with my kids as they grow, i love to take pictures of them a lot to keep the memory frozen and has remembrance. They will be kids once only, and you cannot turn back the time, that's why i capture those unforgettable moments so i can show it to them when they are fully grown.

Obesity Is A Problem

Losing weight is one really a big problem in this country. I am not so certain why most people are obese and having difficulty dealing to lose their weights. That's why a lot of best weight loss pills right now are out in the market to help those people that has obesity problem or even to those people that wants to lose a little bit of their weights. It's normal for us to get conscious to our body since the body is the indication whether we are healthy or not. So to keep our body healthy, we must stay physically fit and firm. Seeing those heavy looking people makes me wonder if they just let their body blow or they can just seem to get rid of their extra weight easy.

Employment

I am glad that the economy nowadays is getting better, it's trying to pick up and it's good news for the world. Although not totally but at least it is better than last two years. It was really hard for us because hubby had his furlough for a long time and we only depending on his unemployment support from the government. He was really down because our budget went so tight and we have to cut some of our grocery lists enable for us to survive. He is happy now upon hearing from the company where he works that they are hiring more employees for more employment which is really a good news. It just indicating that the company is doing well now enough to hire more people to work there.

Don't Tickle My Feet

Of all the three kids i have, my youngest one is the most ticklish. Even though i just try to hold him around his waist, he giggles and wiggles like a worm. He must have got it from me because i am one ticklish person myself. I don't like being touched so gently because it feels like tickle to me. Just like my little one, but i sure love to tickle him because it tickles my heart seeing him laughing and giggling. There are a lot of times that his feet pokes out from his crib bar and i tickle it and he would laugh so hard. His big brother does that to him too since he saw me doing it, but i told him don't overdo it because it is not good for the baby to be tickled all the time.

Take Action

Colon cancer is common to those people that gets older. I am not so sure how people get that kind of illness but it sure is heart breaking especially that has this illness is one of your loved ones. I remember when i picked up my son from his school, i overheard his teacher's conversation about this matter. And talked about colon cleanse that will prevent from having such awful illness. I really don't have any idea about it but when i searched it on the net, i found out that it is really important to know things enable for us to be aware what's going on with our body. It's better to take some action before serious problems occurs.

Keep Your Perfect Figure

I have been receiving lots of comments about losing weight so fast. In fact, one of my friends online asked me what is my secret and i just simply answered her that i am so busy keeping up my chores and taking care of my family as well. With that, it's quite an exercise for me to lose fat so quickly. She mentioned to me that she tried so many best fat burners but most of them didn't work for her. Poor woman, she is trying to lose her fats but she didn't lose it like what she wanted to. Losing fats is really a big issue to us women, staying the perfect figure right after giving birth is important to us enable for us look good and pleasant. Having kids doesn't mean that you have to blow big like a balloon, keeping the figure before having kids adds up woman's self esteem.

My Best Friend Forever

When i first came here in America, i hardly have friends. Well, there that what you called friends friends, but not really that close. I can talk to them whenever i see them but i don't hang around with them so often like what best friends do. But when my best friend came here a little bit after i did, we became so close right away. She always calls me and hang out with me. We have a lot of things in common that makes us spark as best friends. We have the same likes and dislikes. And if we shop, you can always find us where is the most cheapest things you can buy. We are a crazy shopper but we are not million spender, we spend but we're wise at the same time. We also like to bond a lot, going out and have fun outside. Just like this photo i have below, this was taken at the canyon, we really had fun taking photos out there and had some good photos like this, memorable photos that is worth to keep.

Breeches

I was going to see my friend after dropping off my son to school since her house is just nearby to my son's school. I phoned her before i left here in the house and she told me that she and her husband are going to the store to buy some breeches. They need a new one because they are going to bring it to her husband's brother's ranch. They have a lot of horses there, been there once and i would love to go sometime again, it's fun to ride the horse especially when the horse is well-trained. Another way to unwind and enjoy outside. My son got so excited to go there but we will see when weather permits. It would be awesome if we could go there again and let my son ride the horse for the first time.

Good Opportunity For Me

I was up late last night. There are times that when insomnia attacks me, things come pouring into my mind like crazy. Been thinking so many things, about my family back home and my family here, and then my mind started to think about myself. Hubby and i talked about me going to school soon and he agreed with me with it. I really want to continue my studies since there are a lot of courses online already like the LSAT prep courses. I am a stay home housewife and mother of two kids and this is the best way i can continue my studies without leaving my family enable for me finish my studies. I have heard that a lot of hands on mothers are doing this, so why not me too? A great idea and a good opportunity for me to grab.

Slushy Road

I just got back from taking my son to his school and made me scared because i slipped by our driveway. I was carrying my little one with his car seat. It happened to me many times, there were also times that i really hit my behind on the ground so bad. That's why i really hate going out as much as possible because accidents happens. I always try to be very extra careful when driving especially when the weather is humid and it is snowing because it's pretty sure that the road will be slushy and sleek and it cause bad accidents. I have read and watched a lot of news during times like this, it's not the good time to go out and drive around. If not only for my son going to school i would not dare going out for nothing.

Stay Beautiful

Mostly women are very beauty conscious. So am i! Who doesn't want to look so pleasant anyway? No one does. Being married doesn't mean it is the end of staying beautiful and healthy. In fact, being married needs to maintain the beauty enable for the husband to appreciate you even more, that despite of all the chores or attending the kids, still his wife managed to keep her beauty. Isn't that music to our ears, women? When our husbands whisper us that we are still beautiful in their eyes and getting even more prettier each day. That's the reason why i am always reading a lot of sites that helps me maintain my younger looking skin by reading this iQ derma reviews that helps my skin healthy. I learned a lot of things here such as how to get rid of my dark eye circles since i am always up late at night.

There Is Always A Solution

Getting old nowadays is not a terrible concern anymore. There's a lot of regimen that can help to erase those wrinkles on the face so to keep look younger still. I admit that i am a scared kitten when it comes to testing something into my skin. I really am not into those cream that some women usually puts on their faces to prevent wrinkles appearance. But then one of my friends introduced me to a best anti wrinkle cream that works for her. Well, nothing wrong if i try right? And besides, i already saw the result on her face so she must be using the best cream indeed.

You Name It!

I sure am an all around here in the house. I am the wife, the mother of two boys, the driver of my oldest son, taking him to school and pick him later after. Also i am the housekeeper and am the nanny of my little one, you name it! I can be all what you want to call it, lol! But anyway, despite of all these, i am a happy woman that is thankful that i get the chance to experience all of these. Some women are longing to experience the motherhood but they are having difficulties bearing a child. That's why even though i am busy as a bug, i am still happy because i see my kids growing, happy and contented with my care and love. And of course seeing my husband happy coming home from work knowing he has his family waiting for him to be home so we can have quality time as a family after.

I Need Fast Action

I was really so skinny when i was single, but when my first child came out from me, seems like i cannot get rid of this fat in my belly that's been hanging around for a while now. It got worse when i had my third child, i cannot tuck it in anymore, looks like it's a belly jelly! I don't think i would try to exercise though because working here by myself in the house is a lot of work for me already, good enough to be considered as my daily exercise. I am looking for the quick and best belly fat burner that will take effect so quickly for me, i really need to get this thing disappear, it looks so annoying to me.

Rapid Change Of Technology

Sure the technology is changing so rapidly for the better. Just like the computers nowadays, people that has knowledge are trying to enhance it every chance they get. I am always amazed to the changes and can't even catch up with the rapid change of it. I just found out that video card are now available in the market for people to enjoy more and for people to appreciate more the technology. People indeed has talents, within just a blink of an eye, technology is changed already because of these amazing brains they have. I am sure that soon when hubby is going to replace our old desktop, he would include this to his list so our son can enjoy the computer better playing his games online.

Facebook

What's with this facebook that a lot of people are hooked into it? As for me, when i first got my facebook account, my purpose was to keep in touch with my family and friends. And when i found out that there are a lot of online games in Facebook, then i started to get hooked into it as well. Some people added me because of the games, they wanted me to be their neighbors because the more neighbors the better.

Lately i have been receiving lots and lots of friend's requests but i pretty much ignored most of them because i simply don't know them. Well there are some that has mutual friends with me but i don't really care, especially the mutual friend is not that close to me at all. Don't get me wrong, i love to make new friends, it is just that sometimes i am being very careful because some of them are great pretenders. They treat me nice in front of me but soon as i turn my back from them, they stab me like crazy! And i hate those kind of so called "FRIENDS". I rather have few real friends than having hundreds of them and there is only real to me.

Anyway, about the Facebook online games, i am enjoying them so far. Such as the Farm Town, Farmville, Barn buddy and the Zynga poker games. Never thought that i would learn to play poker games since i have never played cards in my life for real! But one of my dear friend taught me how and got me hooked to that game, lol! Good thing it isn't real because if it is, hubby would be mad like hell to me for gambling the money haha. But i don't think i would want to get involve this kind of vice since it will do no good to me and to my family as well. I am sure that poker online games is that how far i would go, no more beyond that. So guys, if i don't know you and you attempt to add me without telling me who you are by sending me personal message, expect nothing from me, i will just hit the ignore button.

Online Business Degree

I have mentioned this matter to my other website that i am planning to continue my studies. Hubby agreed with me which is really a good thing. Considering that i am a stay home wife and a mother of two kids, it's difficult for me to find time to get myself ready and go to school. Indeed a very hard thing to do for me because i cannot even imagine to leave my kids to a baby sitter or to a daycare center since i have no immediate family that i can trust to take care of my kids while i am at school. So i decided that it would be great idea and a very convenient way for me to go to an online university and take my online business degree instead. That way, i can manage my own time and will be able to take care of my family's needs while finishing my studies. Nowadays, taking a degree isn't very complicated anymore for a mother like me. There's this online degree that i can take i don't need to worry about my kids leaving them.

Can't Trade This!

As you all know that i am a pure blooded Filipina, was born and raised in Philippines, a small but beautiful and stunning country somewhere in Asia where you can find mostly gorgeous women like me, lol, just kidding! But anyway, i have been living here in America for five years now and still i cannot trade the food that i have used to eat when i was there in Philippines still. Just like this dried fish that Americans called it "STINKY FISH".
Yes, it does have smell but it sure is yummy! Do you agree pinays? If you don't then you must be a hypocrite! No one could ever resist not to eat this kind of food since this is one famous specialty of Philippines, preserving the fish by soaking it on the seawater or marinate it with salt and let it dry under the heat of the sun. There is one more food that i can never trade to a steak here in America, we call it "GINAMOS" in south or "BAGOONG" in north.

Obligation and Responsibility

When i first got here in America i was really excited when i first touched and saw the snow. But as the years went by, i am kind of getting tired of it already. Wanna know why? Because i have a preschooler now that i take to school and i have a little one to bundle up to take him with me every time i send his big brother to school and later on bundle him up again to take him with me to pick his brother up from school. Isn't that sound so tiring and a lot of hassle?

I wish i have someone with me so i can just easily hop in the car and take off. But that is not going to happen since i am all by myself during the day. My husband works early in the morning and get off from work in the afternoon. So pretty much of the errands in the morning is mine. I guess no matter how i complain about it, i have no choice but to do it because it is my obligation and responsibility as a parent. I just hate to take off and get back home during snowy days, because it's really difficult for me to carry my little one and the driveway is so slippery and sleek. There are a lot of times that i nearly fell carrying my baby in his car seat. I am wishing i have my mother here to help me, but she is so far away from me that makes me miss her even more.

Biting Crib Bar

My little potato sure is a handful kind of baby. He is a lot different from his big brother. His big brother was more tame and quiet when he was just a baby. Every time he wakes up in the morning, i don't hear anything but his toys that plays music. But my little potato is more attention seeker, he just loves to be held all the time and i kind of don't like it because i can't do anything anymore what i am suppose to do. I mean, i love to hold him but not all the time that to the point that i cannot do some other things no more.

My little potato can be entertaining and sometimes can be annoying as well. Just like what he did earlier, he amused me of what he did. He bit the crib's bar. He thought it was funny because i was laughing, he smiled and laughed later on too. Just look at this picture how silly my little potato is!

What Happened To Her?

I just phoned my mother earlier and she told me what happened to my big sister. She was rushed into the hospital yesterday because she was bleeding really bad. As i was talking to my mother on the phone she was crying because she tried to call my sister's mobile phone but there was no answer. She also tried to call my younger brother who's with our sister right now but she didn't any get an answer from him either. My poor mother is hoping that she will hear any news from them soon, she is really worried to death about my sister. I am too, i just don't know what really happened to my sister. According to my mother, what she knew is my sister needs a blood transfusion and she needs it right away and they are still looking for a possible donor. I hope everything will be alright, i feel so bad that i could not be there with my sister. I am also worried about her kids, no one will take care of them.
