Simply Beautiful

Someone commented that Mom has a beautiful skin even at her golden age. Well I should say that it’s all a natural trait of Mom since she’s not having her skin treated with any products since childhood. She preferred to be simple and when she was younger and working as a school teacher she only uses face moisturizers in the morning to protect it from the harsh effect of sun and nothing more. She only put on her mild face powder and uses no makeup at all. When she retired and became so much older her skin still looks beautiful than other women her age. Now she’s commenting that I’m even simpler than her and I told her that I also want to look as simple and as beautiful when I reached her age.

Hair Care

When I attended our high school silver anniversary reunion I noticed that the boys have aged more than the girls and half of them showed signs of thinning hair in the front. Maybe that’s the reason why they looked older than the girls. Women tend to be vain in their looks and I know they care most for their skin and hair. I don’t see any girl classmate with hair problems, maybe those with thin hair problems are using shampoo for thinning hair for women. It’s really a wonderful thing for me because I also have thin hair and who knows I will need it in the future. As of now I only have one or two grey hairs unlike women my age and I’m thankful that with that I don’t need to color my hair, not yet!

Well I will have them take natural acne treatment if ever they will have problems with acne or pimples. Their skin will be harmed if I choose strong products.

Careful Planning on Investment

I’ve talked to my former office mate and he asked if I’m going to pursue my meat product business. Before I finally quit my job last year I really have plans for it all. Due to my online works and busy schedule it was not put into action and didn’t materialize. I weighed all things up and I gave up on my plan of starting a small business because of time schedule conflicts. Then I just thought of investing money on something tangible so I don’t have to spend time on it. My friend told me to save enough investment money and buy gold. Well that’s a good idea but investment should be carefully planned and discussed before you really enter it. Maybe I’ll give some time for it and come up with a good decision.

Security and Safety for Our Dear Seniors

We all want our old folks at home to be safe always but we could never be there for them at all times. When I was still in corporate employment I always call and check my Mom especially when she’s sick. My kids were at school in the morning until afternoon so she’s alone by herself during those times. Often I would take a leave from my work to watch over her because we’re worried that she might slip or fall and no one will see and assist her. I know many will relate to my story because many families have at least 1 or two seniors in the house. I used to hear that there are medical alerts that we can install in the house to ensure safety of my Mom when she’s alone. I just want her to feel she has something to turn to when she feels she needs help when I’m out of the house.

I’m glad that they’ve discovered the safety features of  medical alert because it doesn’t only give first aid help to seniors but peace of mind to their families who can’t be there for their old folks at all times. Plus they’re easy to install and user-friendly too which is very important to the seniors who doesn’t want to maintain hard-to-use gadgets. My Mom is one of those who find it hard to operate high tech gadgets. Although she’s a bright old school teacher and Mom she’s not a techy person so its best if the gadget or equipment used for  medi alert would be easy to use and no maintenance requirement.

For those who are thinking if this senior medical alarm is more costly than having their seniors be monitored by nursing homes or to move in to relatives if you’re away, well the answer is no. The senior wouldn’t want to live with other families other than their own and they feel much better and safer in their homes reminiscing memories of their small children who grew up in the same home.

Food Concession Trailers

My home church is located in the same building where food franchise businesses are offered. The company offers variety of small franchises each with designated booths with logo and attractive design of the food offered for selling like hotdogs, burgers, tacos, fried noodles, waffles and many others. I always get to see twice in a week the pretty trailers on display at the ground floor of the building and dreamed of owning one. It’s actually affordable but I’m looking for a place to set up that kind of business.

Since DH is studying we want to have a small business where he can attend to after his classes. I don’t want him to take a part-time job so we’re planning to buy custom trailer for the food we want to sell. I really wanted to start up a small business with one of those food booths just like the concession trailers I saw online when I’m surfing for business ideas. Custom Concessions is the most reputable manufacturer in the industry of concessions trailers. They built customized trailer that fits your specifications and assists their clients with repair service, customer and technical support after the sale. No need to worry about the warranty as they give a three year warranty on every trailer they sell.

Giving Me Enough Blessing

I’m happy with all the blessing that I’m receiving since I quit my job and concentrate on doing online works only. My present work has given me enough income to support my family’s needs. I even coerced DH into resigning from his job because it’s giving him too much hard work and his health has suffered from it. Now he’s studying for a degree course and the last semester proved that he’s bright enough to compete with younger students. I’m just amazed at how some neighbours would ask me for a cash advance not knowing if I’m earning or not. They’re just seeing me every day with my simple clothes and I’m surprised that they assumed I have money to lend them. Are they not wondering what my job is? I didn’t announce my type of job in my community and that’s for the record, well of course only to my closest relatives and friends lol!

Carpet Cleaning Job

CarI’ve always love having carpeted floors but it takes so much effort just to maintain cleanliness of carpets in the house and office especially if the place is a large area. For the everyday dust using vacuum cleaner is good enough but when it comes to dirt it’s not that effective. Carpets should be cleaned thoroughly if it has heavy dirt. Sometimes carpet undergone water damages like the one we had in my former office building. The water tank at the fifth floor overflowed and it affected the next floor to it where a call center is in operation. The carpets were soaked and cables were affected too. 

The utility man who made an error with the water tank tried so hard to restore the carpet to its original condition and I’m thinking now that it should be cleaned by an expert like carpet cleaning Portland who will be able to restore damaged carpet. They have certified team who will clean and restore it with expertise and fast operation. They’re the expert in their field and for several years they’ve been doing this kind of cleaning and repairing work that extends to restretching carpet, upholstery, oriental rugs, tiles and others.
