It's all about the location!

When I was cleaning out the garage to find some parts of our bed that wasn't installed when we moved here years ago, I found the old binoculars in one of the boxes we stored in there. Too bad the thing is actually broken. My son tried to play with it and it's just not safe and it's too heavy for him anyway so I decided to put it away. I remember my friend has a couple of them at their place because they live in a scenic apartment where you can see the NY skyline which is pretty if you love a city view. It's a million dollar view, I have to say. It's definitely not something you'll see everyday if you don't live there. They must get tired of it though since they have been there for years. Well, you gotta love the view and a place which would be all about the location. Location, location, location!

Are you one of them?

You know, I can't understand electronics. Once you get the latest and greatest, in a few months time something even better comes out and your latest and greatest becomes outdated. It's a sad reality. But, it's an acceptable change as it means people are getting smarter and smarter each day. A new thing comes along and replaces what was fairly new. If you love gadgets and the best electronics out there, whenever something "in" enters the market, you will have to dish out the dough you think you didn't have. Oh, well. I am one of those people that's why right now, I can't even decide whether or not to upgrade my cell phone as I am afraid something even better will come out soon and makes my 5-year-old one a thing in the past. LOL! I can't even believe I've had it that long!

Important development

I never thought how easy it would be to potty train. It's just about time for my little guy to get into it and boy am I glad I finally got serious on training him now that he is ready. I guess it's about timing and readiness after all. I was hoping to get him started when he was fairly small, but that was a scary experience for him instead. So, I decided to wait besides being really discouraged about the whole thing. It was a traumatic and desperate attempt. Kids are different from each other in terms of development, so it's not a good idea to compare. Well, I can pat myself at the back now and as well as rewarding my son with the improvement he is now having. I am very content with the result of both of our hard work. He's been a good boy all in all.

Weight, weight, weight!

I gained weight since after having a baby. I used to weigh between 98-99 lbs. Now, I am more or less a hundred. LOL! I know it's not very significant but nothing has changed. I can tell from my clothing size. I still wear my 5 year old favorite pair of jeans. I feel lucky enough to have gotten very little weight gain. In fact, close to none. I just hope it stays like this forever. It sure is easy to get big but too hard to lose the extra baggage. It can be confusing to decide on diet programs when you're in a weight loss predicament. It would be easier to have a weight loss drink than doing all the other thorough exercise stuff, but then again, do what is best. I better maintain a healthy diet. That sounds inspiring enough to me.

Eat and weigh big

The other day, I was so surprised with how much weight I gained. I don't do it regularly as I don't really have a weight problem. I get curious sometimes and only when I see the weighing scale that I remember to give it a check especially when I had eaten a lot in a day. I was shocked to see 3-4 lbs. added on my original weight. I just laughed at myself for it. I could not believe it. I think I better go ahead and read about apidexin reviews for this and do something about my weight if I don't want to get huge later on. I do need some exercise though. 

Bored

I really should have done my tasks online yesterday as I have errands to do today. Nothing gets me motivated to get out of the house unless it's time to go to school. This warm weather has to be taken advantaged of, but I am just simply taking it easily by staying at home all day most of the time. Oh well, I will try my best to become an outdoor person. I used to, really. When I was younger, I loved being with my friends. I guess I really should make friends and go out from time to time to enjoy life. Or better yet, I have to look for a mom like me who wants to have a play date for the kids. That's an idea!

Fat Burner

For obvious reasons, rich people's lifestyle and career affect their weight. Take Oprah for example. She keeps talking about losing weight in her show and yet she is gaining a lot. Perhaps, if she takes a long vacation, it will do something about her weight. Who knows when she gets back with a fresh new topic it will be about fat burner reviews that work and she has tried. Hehehe. Well, anything can happen. She will come out a complete different image and inspiration to a lot of women who are trying to get healthy.

It has the quote engine that will deliver the quotes and rates from several of the bet lsife insurance companies. So, why wait check it out now!

Progress

I'm so relieved that my sister was able to do all the tasks to prepare for her medical and interview for the visa. I just hope everything goes well on the day of the medical exam day. This is kind of sooner than anticipated schedule and I am confident she will be fine. After this procedure, the next step should be a more exciting experience for all of us. She will soon travel to the US and it's going to be a really big change for her. I will be here to make her feel at home. That's what sisters are for!

Eat and weight

A couple of days ago, I really surprised myself for having to eat more than I usually can. I guess after the barbecue we had on the 3rd of July, my stomach stretched out and accommodated a bigger amount of food. I amazed myself of my appetite. I enjoyed the the food we had though and would love to do it again. I made salads to go with the grilled kelbasa, steak and hotdogs by our friend. Anyway, I have to watch my diet before that certain age comes where it would be difficult to get rid of the unwanted baggage. I sure can't see myself wanting to get a surgery in the future. Well, if Lipofuze works just as well, then I will not have to worry. LOL

Dark eye circle

I don't know how common it is, but when I don't get enough sleep I develop this dark eye circle. Whenever I don't go to bed the usual time, this happens and it's not very attractive. I do notice that to some people as well. I have to do some reading about it to find out how to get rid of it. I have heard before that cucumber slices help. No wonder why I see it often in movies when a woman relaxes by the pool or in the bath tub, the eyes would be covered with cucumber slices. I might have to try that, if not, then I have to look for some solution to it. What do you think?

Excited

I'm pretty excited for my little sister for the new update about her petition. Sooner than later, we will see each other in the U.S. and it's going to be a lot of fun. I am actually more excited about all the things that happened about her life. I would have never thought about having my sister closer than our hometown. I'm glad she made the best decision in her life. I simply couldn't wait for that time when she is finally here. That would mean I will have a new destination during summer break and perhaps for vacation whenever we possibly can travel as a family especially in the winter.

Health savings account

I'm finally going to get some rest from school work after spring and summer terms. The class ended yesterday and now I am looking forward to making this break a really good one. I have yet to get more motivated to go out there and bask in the sun. Although I really hate that idea as I don't want to get even tanner, but I have to take my little one out to enjoy this warm weather. For his sake, I will be taking him more often to the spray park. He loves the place so much. I just don't like it when big and small kids alike get bossy and mean. :) Anyway, I am thinking about getting a health savings account for the family. It should be a good one for our future. You never know when you get sick and needed that emergency fund for your health.

Buy.com coupons

I have been thinking about getting an external hard drive for my PC because now that I am getting into photography, I wanted to make sure that I have a backup for all my files especially pictures. You never know when your computer crashes, so it’s a must-have. I found out that I can get a best buy when it comes to that at buy.com. I am actually getting one pretty soon with the use of some buy.com coupons. I really should get one before it's too late.

Time flies!

I really should be reading my articles for my paper. I have to make sure I get to read them tomorrow so I get my paper done before the end of the summer class. I've been pretty good with my homework though so I should get this thing accomplished sooner than later. I still can't believe how time flies. Fall semester will follow anytime soon and I cannot wait to reach halfway of my major goal in life. I have just started, but time really goes faster than I had thought when I was younger. It used to be too slow for my liking when I was a full-time student. This time is somehow different. At least, that's how I see it. Oh, well.
