New Year in just two days- did you shine this year?

29 Dec

In less than 48 hours, we would be welcoming a New Year! It would be 2009. Time really runs fast. Sometimes, I could not cope up with all the running. I gasped for air and I had to stop… however, time continued to tick and no stopping. Yes, I was left behind in many occasions. That is why, we need someone to hold our hand and run with us or better yet just take a ride or be totally lifted up.

Did you shine this year? Do you think you would win a medal at the finish line? As of me? I think I finished the race or would touch that line. No victories? Well, having survived 2008 is enough, I guess.

I certainly hope and pray for a better year. Let the pains and the bruises and all those stops during 2008 be a lesson and an inspiration. All can start anew.

Reward yourself

27 Dec

First, I would like to greet all of you again a very merry Christmas! I sure hope that the coming year would be a better one for us! What is your gift to yourself? I always ask that to my friends and officemates. Well, after a year of hard work, each one of us deserves to get a reward. If no one has the capacity to buy what you need for you then why not buy it for yourself? Well, I thought of that thus, I bought a laptop! Finally, I got it!

Everybody would like to purchase a laptop nowadays. Well, it has been and would always be a necessity especially because the world is becoming highly technological from day to day. Even my son practices his drawing and writing skills more on the PC rather than on the paper. He loves to watch videos too. He is actually fond of one video he saw and would like to see it over and over again. Whenever we have visitors, he would ask me to open the computer and show the particular video to them. I wonder if there is a video game about that. Well, my son would surely be happy if he would be able to download it. Instead of buying video games, downloading is more practical. There are many games to choose from the World Wide Web. There are Mac games, I-phone games and others. I, myself enjoy playing video games but of course, I only play those classic games like solitaire. For Mac users, there is now solitaire for Mac if you have not known it yet.

A treat for all!

22 Dec

I think I need a masseur to apply to me some Pregnancy Massage Techniques on my hips. It would really be a sure treat for me. You know, being on the heavy side makes me feel like pregnant all the time! My hip joints seem not that flexible enough to carry my weight thus after a long walk in the mall especially during this season, my back already aches.

There is a Pregnancy Massage DVD that I saw in the net. I think that it would be very useful fornot only for pregnant wome but for all. The techniques seem generaland anybody who would be applied on or given that massage would really feel relaxed and rejuevenated.

A Pregnancy Massage surely is a treat not only for Mom but for all.

Mom and Child Talk: Money for my toys

22 Dec

Uh,oh! My son has now the idea of the value of money. Yes, we are trying to explain to him that we could not buy all the things he wants because we could not afford it somehow. Also, he knows that I am working late at nights for extra income. I did not know that he would understand it this early. Well, not in a matured manner but he always asks now if we already have money to buy his toys.

We went to a family reunion and many of our relatives gave him cash. He was very happy. He told his Dad that we should drop by the mall. Upon seeing the toys that he was eyeing for quite some time now, he said,” let us buy that now! I have money!”.

I got my bonus today (yippeee!) and my husband and I were discussing a while ago regarding the expenses for the Christmas dinner. I gave him my share and my son saw it. He said, “Give me more money, Mom. I want to buy more toys!”.

Oh, no! I did not want this! I do not want my son to be like that. I do not like him to have that perception.

It is indeed hard to mold a child to grow up to be a good person. Things that we do or say would be instilled in their young minds whether we consciously want them to do so or not. I guess, we really have to think first and be careful on whatever we do especially when this little man of ours is around.

It gave him warmth

17 Dec

I could still remember my grandfather who used to smoke cigars. He looked so cool. Well, at first I thought that cigars are just for the old. You know, the appearance and the so much smoke that comes out of the mouth. As a child, I was amazed!

The season gets colder and now I know why my grandfather loved those cigars. Maybe it gave him some warmth especially during the cold days and nights.

Cigars could be great gift ideas too. Well, ask the ones you would give first if they do like it or have tried it. Anyways, even if I do not smoke, it is okay if I would receive one of those pretty Humidors. Yes, cigars come in a beautiful box that served as its storage. As the name implies, humidors, it meant to keep the cigars fresh. These cigars just like cigarettes come in different flavors. Cigars are branded too. If you would like to check the best brand, most popular and reasonably priced, go to bestcigarprices.com/. I really like that sampler there that is in a red box. I might try what is inside also if only for the note there that says that it has some herbal aromatic flavor. Could it be like those aroma candles? Maybe. The difference is, you provide the continuous flame.

Because of the feeding bottle's silicon nipple

17 Dec

I took that scary ride again as commented by , I think Sandee in one of my posts regarding that tricycle ride going to our town. Oh, well… how fast those jeepneys disappeared. I was standing for 20 minutes already in front of the drugstore I dropped by for a silicone nipple. Yes, my son still uses his feeding bottle at nights. We tried to wean him but he got skinny. Well, he does not eat much yet so I brought back the bottle. Anyways, before I went to the store, I already saw that jeep with our town’s signboard waiting for passengers. If I took that ride, I could have gone home earlier. But, I really had to buy what my son needed.

So, as usual, after almost half an hour of waiting, I decided to take short rides again and eventually ending up in that tricycle again. This one was not that fast though. Maybe because he had heavier passengers including me. I gained some pounds, he,he,he.

I remembered promising myself before not to take that ride. But I got to go home! Well, as they say…some promises are meant to be broken.

Mom and Child Talk: I want someone beside me!

16 Dec

Our desktop is located here at the living room in line with the entertainment cabinet. A few feet away is our sofa set. Have I mentioned already that this kid of mine is like my shadow? He stays wherever I am. Before, he is just contented to just wait for me until I finish on my homework.

I woke up early in the morning and he followed me. The usual he went to lie down on the sofa. From time to time, he was asking me to come to him and hold his foot. Maybe he felt cold. I told him to turn off the fan and just wait because I was not yet done. So he just let me be. Then he raised up and went to me and sit on the floor. I asked him to go back because the floor was real cold. He shouted ” I do not have anyone beside me!” I was stunned and quick thinking, I pulled on one of the couch near to me and let him stay beside me.

Right now, I am writing this post and his feet are on my lap. He looks contented and does not feel cold anymore.

I love my son. He always makes me feel how much he needs me.

Rejected?

16 Dec

I wonder what happened to one of my previous posts. I clearly remembered that I put the right link text and URL as indicated in the assignment. Good thing I had to write some entries again thus I saw that it is not accepted. I looked again as I was given a chance to correct it and yes, the link was not exact. It had some %%%2o… and other unwanted letters. I am sure that I did not write that. Why should I? Could there be some hackers trying to mess up with my blog? Why should they? What should I do then? Do I have to log off and just log in when I am about to write my post? I hope it will not happen again.
