done doing general cleaning

Sunday
Nov 6,2011

At last, I’m done doing general cleaning of the house. I decided to do it early so I can start putting the Christmas decorations. My third child is really excited and she continually bugs me to assemble the tree. But, it’s a good thing I do it because I was able to toss away the worthless stuff. One of the things I wanted to throw is the plastic drawers because it’s already dilapidated and broken.

My aim now is to buy the 6 drawer log chest. For sure this rustic furniture is really sturdy and will last for a long time. It is made from hand draw knifed White Pine. The top drawers have an aromatic red cedar lining for the bottom of the drawers and all the drawers in the 6 drawer chest have solid aspen boxes with dovetail construction and side mounted, epoxy coated, 3/4 extension roller slides rated for 100 lbs. It really looks attractive and fits perfectly well in our room. I hope to purchase it before the end of the year.

  • news that makes me happy

    I’ve heard my son-in-law will soon start working as a nurse. The news really makes me happy even though he is still processing his license. His future is much brighter with that as well as my daughter. That being said, I should help him find new nursing scrubs. He tossed away all his older scrubs and left the newer one here. Shipping the ones he left is very inconvenient, costly and time-consuming. Buying newer ones and shipping directly to him is the best choice.

    Since he is new to the place, I’m confident he is concerned where to buy those scrubs. It’s difficult to search a huge place like UAE so it’s much better to do online shopping. Plus, they are somewhat busy so help is much appreciated. Good thing I have spare time in my hands. However, before I can proceed, I still need to know his size. I’m just worried when I will be able to spot my daughter to ask for that information.

  • Trick or treat! Happy Halloween everyone!

    Trick or treat! Happy Halloween everyone! Have you gone to the cemetery to pay respect to those who already left this world? Well, my husband and I already do that. I’m also done preparing meals for our little get together. Now, there’s nothing more to do except getting some rest, eat and probably visit some online friend or surf the web.

    However, after some deep thought, I realize it would be better to surf the web besides it is still early to retire for the day. I’m also still full so eating another meal would be a sin and my online friends are probably out to celebrate the day. This is the perfect time to learn the meaning of bioidentical hormone replacement therapy; what it is, what it does and many more. All I know about it is that it helps balance human hormones properly to optimize a person’s well-being. So, it will really benefit me to gather more information about it; who knows it’s the answer I’m looking to healthy body.

    help save nature

    Last year, the city government ordered to do waste segregation. This has to be done in order to help save nature and fight global warming. But, it seems like only few follow the order. I can still see a combination of waste in the waste bin. Even so, I still continue doing the segregation because I know in my own little way I’m helping.

    Currently, I’m throwing my biodegradable in the right waste bin. But, I’m planning to purchase a compost bin. I thought my garden can benefit a lot from the compost I can make from those waste. I’m not too serious with my plants before, but when the flowers started to bloom I feel like giving them extra attention and care. Giving fertilizer is the way to nourish the plants, but it’s much better to use the organic fertilizer, which is through making the fertilizer by myself.

    keeping myself busy

    It’s been more than a month since my daughter left the country. Some say I should move forward, but to be honest it’s not that easy. I still have a hard time missing her. It’s not like this is her first time moving out of my place, she already lived with her boyfriend for three years. But, she can always come home whenever she wants it or whenever I invite her. This time, we have to wait for a year or two before she can come visit me. This is the reason I’m keeping myself busy in whatever things I can think of. One of those things is web surfing.

    Basically, web surfing has become my pastime ever since I learned to use computer. This time what takes my mind away from my worries is the vga to hdmi cables. I Google what it is for, but until now I’m still unsure what it’s used for. It’s a very technical term, which I’m not really good. I read quite a few articles and even forums, but it just consumes my time and yet I still don’t understand it. The good thing, it takes my mind away from missing my daughter.

  • time indeed fly so fast

    Oct 15,2011

    Another “ber” month is coming to an end. Time indeed fly so fast. Before I realize it we will be celebrating Christmas again, which is my favorite time of the year other than birthdays. Speaking of which, I think it’s time to plan for Christmas gifts 2011. I already made my Christmas list that comprise mainly of my family and few close friends and relatives.

    My duty now is to find the best gift that suits each person. I still have two months to do that. But, like I said time flies fast so I don’t have to waste it to find the perfect gift. I don’t want to give anything for the sake of giving; I want to give something that creates value for the receiver. It’s much more important to collect great smiles and love as a return especially from my family.
