Exchange of Phones

I’m happy that my BIL offered to give his wifi mobile phone to me and I’ll just buy him a phone with radio as he really needed it on his work. A month ago I was decided to save money for HTC windows phone but lately I told myself that I don’t really need it for now so the plan was put to shelves. It’s not the htc desire 2.2 that I’ve been saving for but if someone will give me I would be happy too.

The phone is actually not just a simple wifi phone as it can open up my blogs fast and I hope that wherever I go I’ll be able to post some little entries on my blogs. For now I’m thankful that some people around me are thinking of what they can do to help me in my work. They just don’t know that I’m super touched by their ways and thoughts.

:Friday Fill-Ins #202

(design by "thetruebookaddict.blogspot.com/)"

This week, I'm going to give you a choice of fill-ins OR a different kind of fill-in (or both). A friend emailed me a list where you have to identify Christmas songs by the initials of the first words of the first line of each song. Each Friday until Christmas Eve I'll post 9 more of these songs and if you'd like to play along, great!

So...here we go!

1. The best thing about a birthday celebration is you'll get to see your old friends and feel the special thoughts of your loved ones.

2.Lately due to hectic schedule and outpouring of tasks I think I missed the passage of time.

3. I went shopping recently and the most interesting thing I bought was my little gadgets for digicam and my new pair of eyeglasses.

4. Sometimes I participate and play along my kids' child's game and I enjoy it.

5. Someone asked me what's the reason for the Christmas season, I answered that The reason is Jesus.

6.I would love to see and feel snow and cold.  But I think I will not be able to handle the cold :-)

7. And as for the weekend, tonight I'm looking forward to going to Montalban and celebrate MIL's birthday, tomorrow my plans include resting in MIL's house together with DH and kids and Sunday, I want to take final notes on our things to bring on our camp meeting!

Effects of Drinking While at Work and Driving

I’ve always observed traffic and road rules since I’m old enough to be aware of that. I don’t like breaking the rules because I feel that doing it can affect others. It always feels good when you’re on the right track always. I’m not the perfect citizen but I try to be a good one. I carried the same principle in my work practicing the same following office procedures and rules and being honest all the times. That’s why I believe in observing rules like avoiding playing on office hours, implementing strict confidentiality on personal documents of my employers and many other things. In my 19 years of working in corporate employment the only thing that I’m not that good is my punctuality due to excessive traffic jam in our place.

When I think of all these things I can associate that being drunk on office hours is like driving while intoxicated also so it’s easy to understand how hard the case is. When you’re working and you’re drunk you can get an accident in work or your work will not be done perfectly. Just like when you’re on the road, if you drink before or while you’re driving it could lead to road accidents that can harm not only you but other people as well. This is a serious crime for me as the driver is putting many lives at risk. In Texas this offense is meted with stiff penalty like $2000 fines, up to 1 year stay in jail, community service and many others. Well if you didn’t do such crime and you’re only accused falsely you can get help from Houston DWI lawyers which provides legal help services to those charged of Driving While Intoxicated (DWI) case. With their expertise and professional experience in defense lawsuit they can get you out of jail and you can get fair justice.

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!

Emergency Cash Loan

My cousin asked me for help on how she can get emergency cash from a lending company. I told her that since I’m working at home I have no contacts on any lending firm. She’s really in need of fast cash and I’m thinking now if I should recommend this online no fax payday loans to her because it requires no documents, no fax and no long processing time. It’s quick and easy and she’ll get it the next day after the approval. I’ll have her check and visit the site now.

Natural Skin Care

With all the beauty and treatment products in the market now people should know what to find in a product to choose the best one for their needs. I preferred the all-natural products for acne, wrinkles and other skin problems. My girls are growing up so fast that I’m preparing myself for guiding them when they reach adolescence period when they will be worrying about the sudden changes in their face and body. 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.
