Road Trip Withdrawal

I am having a road trip withdrawal, if there is such a thing.

yet another road trip photo

The hubby has been sick since Saturday and the planned (unplan) road trips scheduled for Sunday and/or Wednesday (a no-work Labor Day holiday) are just that: plans.

I’m sure a lot of vehicles with car bike racks were on the road earlier today. I am sure too that a lot of people are enjoying their day out at the beach or having picnics under the trees.

I really hope the hubby will get well soon not because I want to go somewhere else but because I can feel his wanting to get well enough.

Car Rental Coupons

Our relatives are already excited to go on a road trip soon and why not, summer vacation is supposed to be spent doing these fun things. Uncle excitedly asked me to help him look for car rental services he will consider using. Why rent a car I asked? He explained that there are discounts, extra mileage, free upgrades and a whole lot more of perks. Ok, he got me at discounts 😀

I found three car rental services that have car rental coupons. These three car rental services have car rental special codes that can be used several times. These codes have instructions about the rentals and how one can reserve online, print the reservation notice and go to accredited car rental services.

One of the three car rentals I showed my Uncle is the Alamo car rental coupons. An hour advanced notice in the Last Minute Specials can give one access to a rental car.

In participating North American locations, National Car Rental Coupons on the other hand have discounts for full-size cars that were reserved in advance. It is wise to reserve in advanced due to the availability of vehicles one can choose. There are a few conditions for restrictions like location of pick-up and drop-off services.

The last one we discussed was Hertz Car Rental Coupons that has almost the same conditions and restrictions as the second car rental services.

So there, my research for my Uncle is done. I am awaiting for his response since I already emailed him the details. If only I can join them that would be fun 🙂

Messy Room

The inflatable swimming pool of the kids is inside the house, right smack in the middle of the living room, among the contemporary furniture.

pool inside

Good thing no one comes over for a visit or they would be shocked to see some litter in the pool. We have been doing some inventory of the school supplies and some of the discarded items are placed there for disposal once the yard-cleaning lady comes in. She gets some books and school supplies from us.

I really hope to clear the living room up this week, if only I have the time and energy (the heat is so unbearable at 38 degrees C) to do so.

Sunflower

Bulaklak. Para sa akin, winner ang sunflower. Meron ako niyan dito, dito at dito. Ay teka, meron pa pala dito 😀

sunflower

Gusto ko ito siguro kasi napakasaya ng kulay nito na talaga namang nakakapagbigay ng ngiti sa akin.

Kuha ito nung isang taon. Hindi pa masyado malalaki ang mga sunflowers nung napasyal kami kung saan marami ito. Sana kapag napunta ako (at sana malapit na kasi maulan na eh baka mawala na sila) hindi *magloko ang kamera ko para maganda ang mga kuha ko.

*nagloloko kasi kung minsan, madilim ang kuha sa outdoor 🙁

Busy as a Bee

Well, hello  there blog!

I know I have been too busy with things trivial or not to just update. I haven’t been able to do LitratongPinoy for two weeks, and that goes the same for the other weekly memes that I join.

Busy as a bee, that is what I am these past few days, cramming as many things to do while I can leave the kids at home. No, I did not start a business but that would be a welcome idea since promotional items are one of the most sold-out items these days, with the elections just a few days away. I really wish I was able to cash in on this venture.
