Be Prepared Always

My daughter was absent from school yesterday because she has fever and colds. It came as a surprise to us when she suddenly told us that she’s got hot temperature. We were at the church service and I just put some cold towel in her head. The reason for her fever is her runny nose and after one day her temperature returned to normal temperature but she still got some colds. As much as possible I don’t want to bring her to the hospital because there are many sick people there and she might contact severe sickness. I also don’t want being in the hospital for long because I took pity on those who suffer from heavy sickness and when I heard stories of not being able to pay the hospital expenses. 

It’s best if you have a health card or plan like the Blue Cross Blue Shield North Carolina health plan which caters to people living in North Carolina. You’ll have no worries about financial expenses when someone in your family needs medical attention, hospitalization or anything related to health expenses. It’s better if you’re prepared for emergency sickness than be saddled with big hospital bills.

Like Sisters

My niece and my eldest daughter are almost the same age, same height and built. They don’t look like cousins because May has chinky eyes and Ruth has deep set eyes like his Dad but they get along so well. Now that they’re both teens they can relate with each other very well when they talked about high school life, clubs, activities, friends, crushes and even teenage acne products that they heard from their classmates. If you’ll see them you’ll think that they’re sisters because when they talk they giggle, smile and laugh at the same time. They both go to the same school that’s why I’m confident that May will guide and assist Ruth in every way she can. Anyway she’s like an elder sister because she’s two years ahead of Ruth and she’s so kind and such a dear.

Makes Me Sleepy

It’s all work and work now as I have so many dues but earlier I can’t seem to do my work as fast as I could. Too many tasks in the house make me sleepy after that’s why it’s harder for me to write reviews and even personal posts. I just have to read my books again to give me plenty of ideas for my assignments. Anyway I have no choice sleepy or not I have to finish all to prepare for the outpouring of tasks again. I’m so thankful for the blessings sent my way. I could never thank God enough for his wonderful blessing.

Getting Her Money’s Worth

My cousin was here yesterday all the way from our provincial town and as always we were so excited talking about many things. My Mom was the one who was so excited because she gets to know some news about home town where she grew up and lived most of her life. She only transferred here because of my Dad. My cousin lived in our house for about 3 years that’s why we’re really close to each other; she’s like one of our family even if she’s only a second cousin only. 

Anyway talking about life and work she suggested that I invest on planting some crops on our land so when the kids started their college we will have some backup for financial expenses. She’s an engineer but she opted to retire and put up a meat products shop. Her profession now becomes her part-time job because she enjoys having a business of her own. We talked some other kind of investment in the future and she was asking about the veracity of buying gold coins for collection and investment as well. She wants to invest if she will have a high returns for her capital. She wants to be sure that she’ll be getting her money’s worth on it.

Planning to Build Small Cottage House

I was talking to my cousin this afternoon about building a small vacation house in our province. My brother suggested it first and maybe we’ll talk about this thing in the next few months. We have a house in the town proper which is being cared for by my cousin. They lived in the house since we moved to my father’s town until now that her children have bought their own homes. But we really wanted a place in the farm to stay when we’re on vacation so we’re thinking of having a small cottage style house where we’ll put some nice cabin beds, wooden living room set, barn wood dining set and many others. We want it to look like a country house or something to that effect. How I wish we could make our plans push as soon as possible. It’s nice to wake up in the morning and see the sun shining with the fields and mountain in your window view.

You Are Kauai

You are a true natural lover, and you want to escape from the hustle and bustle of the city.
You want to get away from it all, and the less people the better. You crave Kauai's seclusion.

You will love all of the hiking Kauai offers, especially the trails to beautiful beaches.
You are ready to relax, renew, and connect with nature. Especially if that nature includes waterfalls and rainbows.

This quiz amazed me as it describe the real me, I'm really a nature lover and most of the times want to get away from the busy, hectic and noisy environment of the city.  Not that we're living in the city but we're just few minutes away from it and we feel like we're living in the city because we're near to everything people always come to like shopping malls, famous groceries, supermarket and others.

Creative Friend

I’ve been sorting out old things in our stock room and found some old precious memoirs of my school days. I remember putting them all in one box last year for safety because I was avoiding sudden floods then and putting them on the upper floors would ensure safe keeping. It uncovers past happy and memorable days especially the cards that I received from close friends in school including recycled Christmas cards from one friend that used to experiment doing creative things from old stuff. He love giving his original creations to his classmates and even sells some of them to make some money out of it. I wonder where he is now. Maybe he has a nice art shop now.

Security of Gadgets

I’m again looking at various sites selling high tech gadgets and innovative products. Of course I can’t help browsing iPad sites, who wouldn’t dream of having one. Well it’s too expensive for me so I guess I have to content myself on window shopping only. Although I can save funds for it I know that there are priorities in life that should be taken care first like the kids’ education and our newly-bought pickup from my dear brother. I was actually informed that there are locally made ones in one country but there’s no ipad warranty for a year. The manufacturer only warrants for one month only, well if ever I’ll want one I want the original because I would want to enjoy using it for years and I will surely get insurance for it. That’s for safety and security of gadgets.

The Value of Gold

Sometimes our hobbies can give us considerable amount of money when we least expect it. My friend collects the same old coins as I have but when an old coin collector approached and offered to buy her collections she gave some. They were having some problems then because her sister needs big amount of money for her last tuition fee before she graduates. She sold it for a good amount that saved her family from thinking where will they get money from. Although she lost half of her most precious collections she will always remember that those old coins paved the way for her sister’s college graduation. Actually she didn’t know that she could raise that amount by selling her old coins. 

 

She’s now collecting old coins again and contemplating on buying gold coins because she realized the value of gold. She’s thinking that it may save them again in the next few years when they need immediate cash. Gold is a sure investment because it increases its value over the years which will give the collector high profit returns for his capital.
