Say it out loud!
I LOVE YOU!
Say it out loud! Tell your Mom that you love her until there’s more than enough time to do so. You don’t want her leaving without you being able to tell her just how much you love her and appreciate every little thing she’s ever done for you.
I love you, Mom!
Happy Mother’s Day!

Hot, hot, hot!
I was just telling a friend of mine how hot the weather is the past couple of days. I a tempted to get new Casablanca ceiling fans to install all over the house. I really felt bad that I sold my mom’s air conditioning unit to my paternal aunt. Now that we need one, we don’t have it. Prices of ac units have gone up and it’s impractical for me to buy a unit now that I can possibly get the same for a much lower price after summer.
I just wish the weather will ease up. I am praying for a relatively cooler weather today onward.
Are you experiencing the same weather as here?

Value of money
They were taught the value of money early in life. They may have grown up as privileged kids but they know how to earn the money they spend on themselves.
The guy works for his dad assigned to the Airtex in tank electric fuel pump. He works there on school breaks and saves up the money he earns from his stint there. The girl works for her mom’s boutique and just like his brother, she saves up the money she earns from her part-time job. She is planning to invest her money on a food business she and her best friend will be opening soon.

The trail
When I was a kid, there was this trail that my cousins and I always follow whenever we’re in the province. It leads to a river and back then, it was already a big mystery to us why the trail was not widely used by the residents of the place. Every nook and cranny of the province was a mystery for us to unravel. It brought us magic and adventure and lots of horror stories to tell!
I love that place. When I went back there a couple of years ago, the trail was still there but I was told the river was no longer there. It was developed into a residential area and that the trail leads to nowhere anymore.

Depressed even more!
Did you know that there are anti-depressants that can make you depressed even more? And by depressed I mean because instead of being better, the meds can give you a bigger problem in the form of birth defects. I remember a cousin of mine who had a congenital heart disease and it’s so hard for my uncle and aunt to see my cousin suffering from it. I know it’s even more so for the parents who took anti-depressants and then the drugs causing the side effect giving the child a birth defect in the process.

Gain an Hour a Day
To find time for what truly matters…
20 Minutes at Work It takes a second to check if an email is urgent, but new mail sucks up time when you break concentration to answer each message. Stash nonurgent e-mails by clicking “reply,” then “save as draft”. Set a time to answer them later.
15 Minutes In The Kitchen Prep work can take longer than actual cooking. If you don’t want to buy pretrimmed veggies, take a tip from Rachel Ray’s “30 Minute Meals”: During lulls while making Sunday dinner, wash, trim and store produce for the week.
20 Minutes While You’re Out Whether going for a bite with friends or brown-bagging with a co-worker, set an end time when making dates. You’ll resist lingering, and it won’t seem rude when you get up to leave.
5 Minutes In the Car Engines warm up best while being driven, so no need to spend time sitting in the driveway with the motor idling.
Trust me, the one hour a day you saved can be spent in a more important matter, like talking to a love one, or saying hi to friends you haven’t talked to in a long time.

The Schultz Philosophy
The following is the philosophy of Charles Schultz, the creator of the ‘Peanuts’ comic strip.
1. Name the five wealthiest people in the world.
2. Name the last five Heisman trophy winners.
3. Name the last five winners of the Miss America pageant.
4. Name ten people who have won the Nobel or Pulitzer Prize.
5. Name the last half dozen Academy Award winners for best actor and actress..
6. Name the last decade’s worth of World Series winners.
How did you do?
The point is, none of us remember the headliners of yesterday. These are no second-rate achievers. They are the best in their fields. But the applause dies. Awards tarnish. Achievements are forgotten. Accolades and certificates are buried with their owners.
Here’s another quiz. See how you do on this one:
1. List a few teachers who aided your journey through school.
2. Name three friends who have helped you through a difficult time.
3. Name five people who have taught you something worthwhile.
4. Think of a few people who have made you feel appreciated and special.
5. Think of five people you enjoy spending time with.
Easier?
The lesson: The people who make a difference in your life are not the ones with the most credentials, the most money, or the most awards. They are the ones that care.
Don’t worry about the world coming to an end today. It’s already tomorrow in Australia. -Charles Schultz

Stricken with cancer
If there’s someone who knows how it feels to hear the doctor tell a loved one that he had cancer, that would be me. I heard when the doctor told my brother that he had leukemia. It was devastating! We didn’t know whether to scream or cry or do both!
How much more for those who found out they got cancer from actos? The very medicine that is meant for you to get better actually gave you a worse sickness!
If you are in that situation, might as well seek legal recourse. At least file a claim against the company behind actos and get back the money you are using to make yourself better.

Craving for the bears
I am craving for bears… gummy bears actually! It’s been a long time since I was able to munch on one. Those bears hold a special place in my heart as so many funny memories are attached to it.
Anybody wants to give me some?
Happy Monday everyone! I hope you are all having a great Monday morning anywhere you are.

Drink up!
It’s Sunday night in this part of the world. Tomorrow is another start of the work week and I know that majority of us dread the Monday morning rush. So why not drink up a bit so you can go to bed earlier and wake up refreshed. No, I am not saying drink up and wake up with a hangover, okay. I say just drink a glass or two and go to bed after.
Happy Sunday everyone!

Brand new home
We are an above average income household. My sisters and I all have jobs and we all earn a monthly income. My brother is also about to go have a nine to five job of his own. Very soon! It will surely take us a while before we can finally save enough for a brand new house but as early as now we are dreaming and ‘collecting’ stuff for it.
We have our eye on the Marge carson collection of home items. Hey, if you dream, dream big! We are also eyeing an exclusive subdivision and the house and lot will have a modest size swimming pool and a three port garage.
I can’t wait for our dreams to come true. A brand new home. That’s been a dream that we know will come to fruition soon.

Another angel in my life
I now have another angel up in heaven praying and looking out for me. My grandmother passed away and I just know she will always be there for me and the rest of the family looking out and keeping us safe. It was really sad because what happened was so sudden there was no time to say goodbye and yet it was also a blessing to all of us since we bonded stronger than ever.
I guess there really is a blessing in every death. We may grieve but if we take the time to step back and look at the whole picture, you will see a blessing took place at the moment of death of your love one.

How To Find Stylish Nursing Uniforms
Just because you’re in the nursing profession does not mean that you have any excuse not to find the most stylish nursing uniforms available. Here are a few things that you should look for when shopping for nursing uniforms that snap, crackle and pop.
Color
White is a very hard color to wear especially if you are working in a nursing environment. If you’re on the day shift, your uniform will probably be dirty by noon. Uniforms are available in many different colors and some of them have a print as well. Choose from sea green, pink, khaki, purple, red, orange, blue and many other colors. Colored scrubs are vibrant and can add a positive spark to a patient’s day. There are even uniforms that have designed with cartoon characters on them. A lot of pediatric nurses choose these types of uniforms to keep the kids in the unit happy.
Functional
Pretty much all of the nursing uniforms that are made nowadays remain functional while offering different style options. Most of them have large pockets and are very comfortable to wear around. If you’re a nurse you already know the importance of comfortability during the daily grind. You’ll want to find a stylish uniform that fits well and doesn’t constrict your flexibility at all.
Uniforms are available as mock wrap tops with a split neck, flare pants, drawstring pants, V, round or square necks, just to name a few choices. When it comes to nursing uniforms you now have options.
Designer uniforms
There are some uniforms that are made with high than average materials and construction. These are definitely worth the price if you are looking for something stylish that will last longer than the regular scrubs. These designer fashions are also available in different colors, styles and fabrics.
I purchase my stylish uniforms at www.scrubsgallery.com so that I can get my uniforms delivered to my door and don’t have to go through the hassle of shopping in town.

Others’ expectations of us
This is true. Other people’s expectations of us sometimes hold us back. If we don’t know how to cut ourselves free from it… if we don’t know how to live our lives not always seeking the approval of others… then we will forever be held back by what others think of us.
I hope you are living your life not by the standards of others.
Happy Monday everyone!

Golden future
My mom used to be interested in gold coins. We had silver ones before that I believe she and dad were able to sell when we needed the money for a small convenience store. Now that I can spare some for an investment, I am thinking of continuing that gold coin investment my mom was interested in the past.
I am turning 34 in August of this year. I don’t know if I will be able to reach the age of 60 but the best thing to do is anticipate old age. What if I really reach that age and I have no savings or investments to speak of? Better start now, right?
And that’s what I plan to do this year. Start investing and saving up and stocking up for my old age.

Leg support
She is a dance instructor. She dances from morning until night time and she loves what she does! Imagine earning from doing something you are passionate about… that’s what she has in her life. Her passion for a living. The only negative thing about what she does is varicose veins. Good thing there’s juzo compression stockings that she uses to avoid the very thing she’s afraid of.
She vowed she won’t stop dancing until she can still use her legs. She won’t stop teaching dance lessons until there’s someone who wants to learn how.

One step towards saving
At home we will begin using led lightbulb in almost every room of the house. This is one step towards saving on our monthly expenses. As we are all very much aware of, the prices of basic commodities are going up but monthly earnings are not. Might as well do something to cut down the costs and save up a bit.
We can cut down on costs if we find the time to do it. One step towards lesser costs and it will pick up for sure. You will find one way and for sure you will find more as you go along taking steps toward a more balanced household income and expenses.

Sophisticated woman
I’ve known her for years and years and I have never seen her in anything other than sophisticated clothing. If you see my good friend Nina in person, you will know right away that she is obviously into fashion. It need not be the latest but the ones that will truly look good on her are the clothes that she wears often.
Right now I know that she loves the fenn wright manson brand, modern and chic clothes that will surely fit the sophisticated woman like Nina. I remember accompanying her shopping a number of times in the past. She was thorough when looking for her clothes. It needed to be quality made aside from it being fashionable.
If you would like to check the brand, go to Gray & Osbourn where you will find different clothing brands of the best kind. You will surely satisfy the fashionable woman in you when you shop there!
