Isang larawang kuha ng aking anak, mula sa binyag ng inaanak ko at mga kumareng nakilala sa pamamagitan ng pagba-blag.
Tanong ko lang, itinatago nyo ba ang mga mementos na ganito, kandila, invitation, giveaways atbp bilang ala-ala sa mga espesyal na okasyon?

I love to take naps. Sometimes my naps even extend way beyond the usual half hour or hour nap. I don’t think I need insomnia treatment just yet but in the future maybe I will.
I sleep late, much as I really want to do so other wise. I have to wait up for the hubby to arrive from work. Then I need to wake up super early at 4am to cook packed lunch for my children who are fetched by the school service at 5:30am. Yeah, my grade school children have to do that so it’s really a TGIF for them.
How do I manage to go through the day with so little sleep? As I’ve written above, I take naps. If it is impossible for me to do take naps, I try to move as little as possible to not zap my energy level.
And I take little nibbles here and there. I know, I tsk, tsk too to myself.
Do you reduce, reuse and recycle?
We do a bit of reduce, reuse and recycle. We have reduced our trash by not using canned food because it is not just a healthy option it helps reduce trash too.
We reuse plastic bottles by using these for water or fruit juices to bring to work or school. Disposable cups have been used in the garden too, as well as plastic spoons and forks from takeout food have been washed for future uses. Ice cream tubs are used for meats in the freezer, divided according to how these will be used. The big ones are used to knick-knacks too.
We recycle by way of tin cans, boxes, plastic and glass bottles, paper, plastic wrappers and even vegetable and fruit peelings. Gift, cereal and baking products boxes; bottles of perfume, lotion, (and maybe anti aging products in the future, lol), deodorants; toothpaste tubes, and so on and so forth… I put all these things in a different container for recycling, which our cleaning lady gets once or twice a week, depending on how much junk we accumulated.

Last Friday I got a super happy surprise when I got a cake delivered for me at hubby’s family home. I had to tell the hubby to NOT forget to get it from their house and bring it home with him since I wasn’t able to bring it with me. Am sure the children would be ecstatic with the nice and yummy surprise.
I told my friends in an online chat room that I also got the cake which I know some of them did and someone told me to NOT freeze and cake and slice carefully.
Ohhh… when I “heard” about the tips, I couldn’t wait till the hubby arrive with it and when he did, I took photos first before I sliced carefully.
There really was a surprise! Woot! A mobile phone inside the cake with a sim card! Well, it was not the htc desire hd phone which I am eyeing but since I am easy to please, I was not only happy, I was ecstatic!
Happy, happy, joy, joy! Read more

People always say they want to be healthier and live life fuller and take time to “smell the flowers” with every new year that comes. But how many really achieve what they aim for? How long can they last resisting the urge to take that one last bite of that cheesecake? Or the urge to just probably spend 15 minutes doing online games rather than spending time outdoors?
I’ve stopped making new Year’s resolutions for I don’t want to be disappointed in myself.
Instead, I made a mental note (which I hope won’t add more white hairs) about the things I want to accomplish this year.
This includes limiting time to doing online time wasters like online games which prompted me to install Chrome Nanny. I still have to remove Mozilla Firefox yet but since it has crashed again while I was using it earlier, I am all the more tempted to do so.
