Wishes Granted!

I’m wishing for drizzles yesterday and this morning my wish was granted our backyard soil was wet and all plants were watered. It’s not the first time I wished for that and happened the next day! I remember the last time that I was affected by the afternoon news that talked about El Niño and I wrote it in my blog. Then I wished for some rain and the next day after that it rained. Well I count such little things as blessings from God.

It makes me happy to know and feel that my little wishes are being heard by Him. Of course I’ve known for a long time that He’s good to me all the time because He’s shown many miracles in my life and two of those are my daughter’s lump in the head and my Mom’s blindness. These two were cured miraculously without the help of medicine and I was glad for His merciful grace. To Him Be the Glory.

Josh Likes Almanac

My little boy asked me about the picture I’ve posted in my blog and what’s it about. He’s asking about the picture of asbestos I have in my site which I posted when I featured Mesothelioma months ago. He was somewhat intrigued by the metal and knowing him he wouldn’t stop until he gets the answer. Sometimes he’s making our nose bleed with his questions lol! I wonder what he would be when he’s older, he’s just six years old now and you’ll be surprised at his 101 questions.

He’s currently reading Gen’s collection of Almanac and everyday he’s been telling us some international facts. He would ask us the first president of this and that country and then he will give the answer. Sometimes he would talk about history, planets and different countries. To rest from his book I let him play pet society so he can forget his almanac for awhile lol!

New Desktop Computer

When I visited my brother he showed me his newly purchased desktop computer which is really fast and very reliable. He has many computers which are used by his kids and he bought this one for his engineering computer works. His laptop nearly gave up him so he’ll return to using desktop when working at home. He can always use the He told me that the more mobile your laptop is the more it is prone to damage. Anyway I’ll still save for my own laptop this year so I can do my work anytime and anywhere.

Wishing for Drizzles!

It’s super hot summer these days and you’ll wish you’ll never get out of your house on daytime. Just now I went to school with my two daughters to get their class cards. We brought along my flash drive to the nearest printing shop in the school to have our pictures printed and it took us lunchtime to finish everything we need before going home. I promised some of the printed pictures to Gen’s teacher and she’s very happy to have her copy of their picture last Recognition day.

To quench our thirst we ordered 3 Halo Halo while we waited for the printing. We didn’t monitor our time and before we knew it’s already lunchtime. It’s like being in the oven when you’re out in the sun; our atmosphere is really on the worst El Nino period. I’m wishing for the drizzles!

New Plans for Anniversary

It’s less than a month now before we celebrate our 14th wedding anniversary and just this afternoon I laughed at how my kids are planning our special day when they saw our wedding invitations. Actually they don’t forget the exact date as it seems etched on their young minds. They’re asking me to cook a special recipe and buy them their favorite cake on our wedding anniversary.

They’re so excited when they suddenly remember that we usually dine out on every anniversary that we had. I saw their faces suddenly lost their excitement so I told them that I’m going to make it a family wedding anniversary and they will go with us on our dinner date. They eyes rolled and they regained their excitement again. Will tell it to DH later.

:FF/FTP : School Farewell Foods

These are some of the foods at Gen's Grade V farewell party in school sponsored by top ten students of section 1. Gen got the 4th place and she happily came up the stage once more getting the reward for all her efforts and perseverance in studying. We decided to buy donuts as Gen told me that her classmates will surely love it. Four boxes were enough for them because some didn't attend the farewell and recognition activities because it falls on holy week. Some spent their vacation on their provinces. There were different kinds of pancit and bibingka, pandan gelatin, drinks and some other foods.

A Way To Cool Down Heat

The sun’s heat is so intense these days that we really need to do something in our house to prevent the sun from penetrating our windows and curtains. I’m finding it hard to work sometimes so maybe it's a good idea if we use blinds instead of silk curtains in the room where I’m working. I’m having my imagination works now and I’m thinking of choosing cool pastel colors to complete the refreshing and cool ambiance I want to have in my working room. I’ll have to find a good brand now.

Instant Quotation

My cousin dropped by the house and I asked her if she knows anything about the instant life insurance quote I heard from a friend. My cousin is an insurance agent and if I have some questions about insurances I know I can depend on her most of the time. This one I’m asking about is different from her handled accounts because they didn’t offer instant quote. Oh well I think I can get it online if I want to just like some important errands I have made.

Choosing the Right Web Host Provider

As many bloggers know having your domain and choosing your web hosting is very important in blogging. I remember when I started blogging three years ago I was content in having a free-hosted blog but when I’m already blogging for months I realized the necessity of owning your own domain name. With this realization I started finding a web host that will satisfy my need for good service and affordable price. I read reviews and gathered information from my friends who knew some web hosting providers. Reading reviews is very important as you’ll know the top providers, their capacities and their rates. You can start from there as I’ve done in my blogs.

Now I’m maintaining more than one blog and each have their own domain name. I’m still thinking of adding a new health and home site to my currents blogs and as such I’m browsing some sites to know the latest offers from the top ten web hosting providers. I found that bluehost review have a lot of positive things from the users’ review and it’s now no. 2 in the list. It offers unlimited domain hosting, unlimited bandwidth, unlimited disk space. And they have a special offer now of a free domain for a very small amount. Well that’s really an offer if I may say so and with excellent customer support which is what I’m always looking for because it’s very important when you have trouble in your site. Some of my friends are already using bluehost and I haven’t heard any negative comments.

If you want to read reviews and search for the right web host for your site you can check out AlreadyHosting.com, a free web hosting review site that provides the list of top ten web hosting providers, articles, reviews and everything you need to know in finding the right web hosting provider.

Finished With School Activities and Ceremonies

Still feeling tired after the weekly school activities of my kids. The first week was my little boy's moving up ceremony, the second one was daughter Gen's recognition ceremony in school which seems like a graduation ceremony to me for having consumed around two hours including the waiting time. I still have to post the recognition pics and this morning was my eldest daughter Ruth's graduation from primary school.

It was a relief finishing these activities and I was happy that they have done their best in school even if Ruth didn't made it to the top. I was happy that she easily passed her entrance exam for the christian school we both want. They were happy that we celebrated their Ate's graduation with lunch in their favorite KFC and gaming moments in Tom's World. I'll post these activities soon! I'll rest for now!
