Sick grandma
My paternal grandmother is now confined in the hospital. She was not feeling well and felt so weak that my aunt rushed her to the hospital. The attending doctor in the emergency room told them that grandma had to be confined because a series of tests had to be done on her. She’s been in the hospital for the past three days and so far all the necessary lab tests were done already.
We visited her yesterday and when she heard that the ekg machines were free to be used and she had to be wheeled in for another test, she suddenly got nervous about it! We had to tell her that we wouldn’t leave until she came back and that’s the only time she calmed down.
It’s really a must to have a healthcare plan these days. You don’t know when you will need it specially if you are already a senior.

Game from the past
One of the games from the past that I played was yoyo. When I was a kid, boys and girls had their own yoyos and everyone knew how to play it. We knew how to do the tricks. We were all very active players, I tell you.
I am just reminded of my former love for yoyo when I saw diabolo online and I heard my brother talking about it. I told him how we used to be so active in playing yoyo and how I knew some of the easy tricks. I tried but I am now rusty so I think I need to brush up on my yoyo skills and let my brother see how good I was.

What makes you cry?
I will admit it… I am a crybaby! I wasn’t like this but I guess old age is creeping in and the tear ducts are loosening up. Hahaha! I cry at the silliest things. I cry at touching scenes be it a tv commercial. I cry when I read novels. I cry when I watch movies.
Of course, I cry when I am reminded of my loved ones who are already with our Creator. And whenever I see my brother, our youngest, celebrating momentous events in his life without a mom by his side.
What about you?

Swimming love
Another set of kids I know who loves to swim are the kids that my sister tutors. One boy and two girls. All three of them are siblings and just love swimming every single day, rain or shine. Their parents already bought pool supplies for their own pool so that they can enjoy every day after school. Once they get home, my sister will start tutoring them on their homework. Once all their homeworks are done, they can then proceed to their favorite activity which is to swim.
I wish we also have a pool at home so that my little girl can also swim as much as she wants.

Relaxing Sundays
It will be relaxing Sundays starting next month for Irish and her kids. She got a pentair pool pump for her newly built swimming pool in her backyard. Her kids love to swim so she thought instead of paying in public pools every Sunday, she’d just have one installed at home. And she did.
Now it will be relaxing Sundays at her backyard pool beginning this weekend. It will surely be a lot of fun since she also invited her kids’ playmates and their mommies.

A makeover
This place near where I live is having a makeover. I think the deliveries that came last week were indications what the makeover will be about… rustic decor for some rustic feel at home! No wonder the facade of the house is now looking like a log cabin from afar. I think they used some tiles on it that look like wood or something. It’s pretty interesting as you don’t see that kind of house often in a city.
But hey, to each his own. If the family living in that house wants their home to look like a castle, so be it! It’s their home, anyway.

Dance to the beat
My little girl just loves dancing. Whenever she hears a song with an upbeat tune, she will break out into a dance with steps I don’t know where she learned. She wants me to play music videos via youtube and I just have to find a youtube downloader just so we both don’t have to suffer through a long period of buffering time.
Right now she dances to several tunes so I keep that on for whenever she feels like dancing within the day. And that will have to be at least three times! Ha! Ha! Ha!

Concern for other women
I love how a friend of mine is helping former domestic helpers move on in their lives. They are now without jobs because of their age and instead of becoming jobless forever, my friend is helping them find another source of income. Three of the former domestic helpers are now in a cosmetology school learning salon services. They can open their own salons in their provinces or they can work for other salons willing to accept them despite their ages.
My friend’s concern for other women is doing them a lot of good! And Regency Institute’s unique approach to teaching beauty is the beginning to their new lives.

Side effect
I don’t know with you but I get scared when I hear of side effects of medicines sick people trusted to heal them. Unsuspectingly, the sick person, instead of getting better, becomes more sick! This will happen to those taking Crestor if they are not yet already suffering from serious side effects from it.
File a Crestor lawsuit with the help of legal experts. That’s what you should do if you are suffering from side effects from this medicine. Do not be afraid to come forward and assert your rights. You should fight those people behind this medicine linked to serious side effects!

Disney in 2012!
I am reminded of a dream my siblings and I have been nurturing since we were little kids… to go to Disneyland! We would like to experience it even if we are now grown-ups. I saw the disney hotels in Orlando and, boy, did I start feeling that yearning again to go to Disney!
I hope we can all go this 2012. I hope we can all see Mickey, Minnie and the rest of the Disney characters live. It’s a child’s wish, I believe, and a simple one at that. The only hurdle to this wish is our source of funds.
Very soon…

A new beginning
We all deserve a second chance in life. A new beginning. There are those struggling with dependency and bad vices. There is still hope for them. Go and get dual diagnosis treatment. There is still a way to get the bad stuff off a person’s system if only help will be given. And, of course, the desire to get better is within the person’s heart.
This is the perfect time to a new beginning. The year is about to end and a new one about to start. Perfect timing. If you are looking for a fresh start, or for a love one, this is it. Get them help. Get help yourself!

Got enemies?
When I was younger I was a war freak. I would look for reasons to fight the persons I didn’t like. Enemies were nothing to me. I thrived in hatred back then.
These days, I hate having enemies. When the realization that life is short hit me, I thought why waste precious time fighting? Why waste precious minutes of life being angry over someone who doesn’t really matter in the overall scheme of things? So I stopped with the fighting and concentrated more on the living a great life.
But, hey, that doesn’t mean I don’t have an enemy or two. I am sure I still have one or two living under a rock somewhere. Do you have one?

Great deals this holiday season
There are so many great deals this holiday season and all you need to do is to look patiently for it. A friend of mine told me about the eddie bauer coupons 2012 that she found. She was able to find a lot of items that she can give to love ones because of those coupons. I will be looking as well later in the day.
Patience is the key during the holiday season. Traffic jams, long queues in shopping centers and malls, packs of individual shoppers everywhere. You will lose your patience if you are not prepared for it. But if you are, there are gems in different areas of the city that you can find.

A creative being
If there is one person who has the creative juices to come up with a product that will make everyone’s jaws drop, that would be Rein. She really knows her craft! She is an artist through and through and a creative being born to make really beautiful things.
Can you imagine a bookcase made of glass tile? Yes, she did it and when someone saw it, the bookcase was immediately sold! She also has several other crafts that she made and were all sold within 24 hours of it being displayed in her shop.

Unwind with music
I was writing and not minding the world a few days ago. I had an epiphany when I stopped for a while and just listened to the music blaring in my ears. I realized that I can think more clearly with my Beats headphone on! I realized that I am more relaxed when music is on. I don’t feel rushed or harassed at all!
Music is my way to unwind after a really busy day. I listen to mellow music before going to sleep. If I can only let the music keep playing all night long, irregardless of electricity and my ears’ well being, I might let it.

Free!
Laugh your heart out,
Dance in the rain,
Cherish the moment,
Ignore the pain.
Live. Laugh. Love.
Forgive and forget!
Life’s too short to live with regrets.

Sometimes…
I believe it. We don’t know that sometimes what we thought is a wrong choice will turn out to be a blessing in disguise that will lead us to a positive result.
We just have to believe ourselves and keep the faith that everything will fall into place sooner or later.
Happy Monday!
