Rebuilding Houses?

Then this wholesale apparel might just be right for you too. I have been looking for some cheaper furnitures and house gadgets I can use at home and I stumble upon this site. They have quite a lot of good and cheap items so I bookmarked it and shared it with you moms and dads out there.

I will share more and look for more useful sites so I can share them all with you. I am going to need to rest for some time though. It has been tough being sick and even if I hate to say it, I probably might be away for some time. But who knows, I might not take long, anyway :) We’ll see :)

It’s Not Just Me!

I thought I was the only one worrying about my pimple problem but I guess I am not alone – laughing out loud and rolling on the floor real hard! Why? Because the person who seemed to be so caring about her skin and is always bullying me about my pimples is having the same problem now! Haha – reason why I am laughing is because that person is my sister! She used to always tease me that my skin is dark and am ugly and unappealing, etc. Really – she was like that – until she had the same problem as I. Now, she’s also on the lookout for the best acne treatment in the market and is frequenting a facial salon.

I worry about her though because she used to be so confident about herself and now, a single pimple would depress her as if the worst thing have happened to her. I wonder if she will be able to cope up like I did. The first day I had my very first pimple was at the age of 19 and I am already in college. Good thing is – I am already going out by then. I felt devastated with that big pimple and can’t go to school. That became worst when more pimples surfaced and I can no longer hide them all! And boy, believe me, I would’ve wanted to drop out if not for my scholarship that time. I guess I should just keep on talking to me sister, give her hope that everything will be ok and to keep on working and working so she’ll have lots of money to spend on her dermatologist and the her medications. I used to have a dermatologist and it really helped me a lot. But now that I am a mom, my kids are more of my priorities than these pimples :)

Got A New Aircon

After a whole month of battling the heat and I mean super heat this summer, we finally got a new aircon! The kids were really happy and even thanked us for getting a new one. I pity the poor girls because they now have prickly heat that feels itchy all over. Now, they can sleep soundly again and I need to prepare for the monthly electric bill once more LOL!.

It was a long shopping tour before hubby finally decided to get this one. He’s been constantly wandering around looking for some spring plungers and won’t focus on what we really need that day. We also went to buy school shoes for the kids as well as rubber shoes they can use for the PE class. Both were provided by my mother-in-law – *wink wink*

We were already tired even before going to the mall so we headed straight home right after we got what we need for the house and the groceries. I wanted to stay longer but my body already wanted to lay down and sleep and I think I have to give in while it still wanting some sleep LOL! I have never been really tired and lately it just keeps on getting worst. Is it just because I am getting old or does my job really feels exhausting?

The Reciprocal of Being a Mother

Is receiving tons of love from your children and your husband. The impact that a mother bring to her children can never be valued by any financial figure. This is an untiring occupation. And last month, I am very very fortunate to have received some great mothers day gifts from my family.

I wasn’t expecting anything that day but hubby wanted to go out for a movie and insisted we should so off we go. I was only informed that day we will be leaving the kids in a playroom inside the mall they can enjoy the day. Unfortunately, the store have closed all the playrooms for reasons we don’t know so we were left with bringing the kids to the cinema and it was the very first movie. Ironman 2! The kids enjoyed it being their first but there were times that they wanted to go out already due to some scenes they don’t want to see. We were lucky to have finished the movie without any problems with the kids LOL!

I was insisting to go home after the movie because I still need to work on a couple of kits but hubby wanted to have dinner and while eating, they all greeted me a Happy Mother’s Day. It was a very special day for me. I may not be as surprised as I should be but it really made me happy.

One cannot really measure or put any value as to what a mother brings to her child. A mother is a constant companion, a teacher, a chauffeur, a personal nurse, etc. She does everything for her family and most of the time, she sacrifices a lot for them.

So if you belong to those who still doesn’t appreciate what your mother does for you – it’s time you see what she does and be thankful you have her.

The Smoking Grandpa

When my kids are in my parents’ place – you will often hear me complaining to my father. He’s a chain smoker and I hate seeing him smoke when the kids are there. Primarily – my daughters are very sensitive when it comes to dust and smoke and so I wanted him to understand that it isn’t something to be taken lightly.

He have personally witnessed the very fragile situation that my daughters went through and he was able to undo his habit back then. And now, he went back to what he used to be – a chain smoker. I never really liked being around him because of passive smoking and I do not want my kids to suffer the same. I wonder when he will stop. Hmm – I saw something on the net about electronic cigarettes but really not sure how it functions or if it does have the effect of the regular cigarettes. I might probably have to check it out and see.

If this innovation is a healthier version of the old cigarettes, I will be very much willing to share this information to him. For now, I only have a few reviews about it but I will have my own research. I wanted to check on this personally. I know my father would hate me for asking him to stop smoking but if I can have something to replace that, I know he’ll give it up – just like the time when I am always bring home candy substitutes for cigars. He liked it.
