I Love My Laptop

Mine is not new really because we bought this laptop last year June I think. The reason why I am loving it is because we can bring it when we need to stay outside our home for days. Just like during our New York vacation. My husband had worked a little bit each day checking some work matters. I remember how it was before we purchased this laptop. We couldn't just get online whenever we want.

It is pretty cool how this latest high technology gadgets, cell phones, laptops and many more, makes our lives easier. Imagine if there is no gadgets like this today, it would be hard, so hard. Isn't it?

Planning To Buy A Treadmill

Jeff and I are planning to buy a treadmill so I can exercise here at home since I couldn't go to the gym to take care of our daughter. We don't want to bring her there and leave at the kids club especially these times with the swine flu spreading. I chose to be extra careful and set aside my workout. Although it is nice at the gym because they have many treadmills but our baby first of course. We're gonna buy a treadmill one of these days for sure. My husband can also just finish his workout here instead of doing it at the gym treadmill by the time we have it. I don't know yet when, it is not a good time for us to buy this time, bad economy.

Wrinkle Reducing Products

I know that some women in their older age uses products that makes them look young, like wrinkle reducing cream. I have not seen somebody applying it to their face right in my eyes so I have no idea how it works. As I surf online, I stumbled upon one product called youthology. Some says it is effective and some says no, which of course not new to me because every little beauty products in this world has effect whether it is good or bad. However, it is up to us to research first carefully before using and applying it to our skin. And to me, I always chose to rather not use it than having regrets at the end.

Health and Fitness Equipment

My husband has been working out at the gym every week nights. He is just so determined to maintain his body health and figure. Sometimes I even ask him to skip working out but he always refused. I can't believe how disciplined my husband is when it comes to something he wants to do. Aside from regular exercise, he does strict diet too, which I couldn't do. We are totally opposite on diet and exercise thing kinda.

Months ago before I got pregnant and before I gave birth to our first baby, I use to work out with him. My husband helped and encourage me to go to the gym and I did really enjoyed those times. Aside from spending time together, we both like doing something productive to our body health. In fact, I went to the gym still the night before I delivered our baby. I loved going to the gym, those equipments are just great and very effective to everybody who uses it. I have seen gym members where we workout who exercise couple times a week and I can tell how physically fit they are.

Anyway, there are devices that are being use to measure our metabolism rate that my husband mentioned the other day. He heard about it from somebody at the gym. The MedGem and the BodyGem. They are handheld device that accurately and quickly measures our resting metabolic rate. Another one is the Futrex a precise, user friendly, portable piece of equipment that only requires a one-site measurement to determine overall percent body fat. I would love to have these devices. Don't you? We can measure by ourselves without going anywhere. Jeff might get them one of these days he said but not sure yet.

Our Latest Family Time

It is just really fun to spend time with our love ones. I always look forward to it once a week. and so with my husband Jeff. Taking time being with each other every once in a while makes our relationship stronger. It doesn't matter where and how we celebrate it, whether at home or in a park as long as we are together, it makes a difference. It feels so so so good knowing that my husband and I with our little angel Mac never forgets that family is the most important thing in life not money. Some photos are below taken during our family time:

Joint Pain Relief

When it comes to buying and using certain products, those that are best selling means it works. You know why? It is simply because people trust these products and they find it effective that's why they keep coming back buying it. It is honestly hard to find joint pain relief that will work effectively. In addition to that, thousands of the same products in the market these days makes us more confuse to choose the right one. So what should we do to come up with the right one? For me, researching online and reading reviews helps. It gives us an assurance whether the product works or not.

I Have Dark Eye Circles

Another beauty problem I have is my dark eye circles. I keep seeing a product on tv commercial that can treat my problem but as usual, I am scared to use it. I noticed the dark circles since college when I started staying so late to study my lessons for my exams. I didn't do anything to get rid of them. I know it is ugly and I wish it will just disappear without doing anything. Oh well, I think it is not a big problem really. I am just making it a big issue. There's a lot more things to worry about than this. Don't you agree?

My Dad Is Suffering Arthritis

There are times when I call my dad in the Philippines, he's telling me about his arthritis problem. He didn't complain to me how painful it is but I know it is very painful because he couldn't walk well and sometimes he just stayed in bed for days. Arthritis is the only health issue that makes him really need to stop doing what he normally does. And I hate when it happens, it breaks my heart. I love my dad so much and I don't want him in pain. But my dad is hard headed sometimes though, he eats food that he is not supposed to eat. My dad is 73 already and I hope he can just enjoy life without pain. I think he just take an arthritis treatment whenever it happens. Well, that's life, sometimes we are happy and sometimes we are in pain.

Last night I talked to him on the phone. He sounds happy but was worried, I made him. haha! I didn't mean to make him worry. The reason why is that he sent me text messages twice the other day and I didn't replied for the first time immediately. My fault, I was just busy with something. Anyway, I miss my dad so very much and I can't wait to see him and hug him when we visit Philippines next year.

How To Have A Smooth And Younger Looking Face?

I am really wondering what products they are using to maintain their good looking smooth face. Last Saturday during our grocery shopping I saw one of them. A woman working where we shop and I couldn't stop myself looking at her face. I told myself, I wish I have her skin. She don't have problem with her skin like I do. I have seen some best treatment for acne but I am so afraid to try. I would love to use a home made treatment that would surely not make my problem worse. Anybody knows an acne treatment? Please feel free to leave a comment here and share your ideas. I would love to know your beauty secret.

Playing Pool!

Today I played pool with my wonderful niece, Bridget! It was fun.. I beat her twice and then the third round, she almost beat me but i beat her again!! I'm not an expert at playing pool but it's a new hobby of mine! I'm quite good for a beginner. Its a blast especially when you try to get that big, bulky eight ball. Oh, and I cant' forget my wonderful daughter Mackenzie! She is a wonderful child i love her each and everyday! Also, I thank my niece, Bridget, for getting me in n out.

Taking Care Of Our Skin

People say that I have a nice and very smooth skin. I think so, but I honestly have problem with my face. It is not really obvious but I have many black heads and I just don't know how to get rid of them. I am scared to apply creams and other liquid facial treatment because it might make it worse. I would rather have this little problem than getting more from using different products.

I heard about acne light which I find it very interesting because it can safely kills the bacteria that causes acne. Don't you think it is safer than applying creams? I believe so. I will search more about it but no plan yet if I'll consider it.

Are You Looking For The Best Multivitamins?

One of the several ways to stay healthy is to take multivitamins. But the big question is, what multivitamins? I myself and my husband are taking multivitamins which I just picked from the grocery store when I shop. It is good that we are both taking but it is better if we know all those best multivitamins so we can choose the best one from all the best. I didn't care of taking multivitamins before but now that I am a mom and a wife, I just want to stay healthy for them. I want to be alive longer possible for my family. Don't you?

Weight Loss Drink

One of my sisters used to work on her weight. She had gained weight since the birth of her daughter. She was so slim before she got married and we noticed that she was slowly gaining weight starting when she was pregnant. I think during those times pregnant women normally gain weight aside from the fetus developing inside our tummy. I gained weight too but I'm lucky because it's not so much. Anyway, I remember my sister having weight loss drink but she stopped after months of taking because of the cost. Now, she is trying to lose weight through exercise. I think that is the best way of losing weight without supplements.

Best Anti Aging Products

Aren't you confuse of those anti aging products that are available in the market today? Why making us confused? It is simply because there are hundreds of products, it is hard to choose which are really working or not. However, there are ways to figure it out. Thanks to web sites that has best anti aging products which help us come up with the right one It is very useful because a lot of people nowadays are relying on products reviews. I do to every time I see something online that I want to buy, I take time to read reviews from real users.

Using A KVM Switch

When there are lots of computer devices that we want to connect to one another, it will be a little hard work and it will look messy unless we know about KVM switch. It is a hardware device that allows us to control multiple computers. Although there are some other ways to do it, but by using the KVM switch, everything would be easier. We don't need more than one switch to link each devices. I don't need it but for those who have many computers and wants all of them to be easily accessed, this is what you're looking for.

Motorcycle Accident Lawyer

Are you, your family member or a friend had a bad motorcycle accident? We should act quickly if this kind of accident happens. We need a motorcycle accident lawyer to help us settle things needed. By contacting them, they will be discussing about who will fix the motorcycle, how much our case may be worth, who will pay the medical bills and a lot more. I like it that there are lawyers for different kinds of cases. I hope it is all over the world because there was one time my older brother in Philippines had a motorcycle accident and I remember we just didn't do anything. All expenses are paid by him.

Having Health Savings Account

Have you heard about health savings account? I just did and I find it very interesting. It is a vey good idea to have health savings account. Even though we have health insurance but still we need to pay a large amount sometimes after insurance.

Health care is one of the biggest problem that our government has been trying to solve right now. We all know that there are many people who doesn't have health insurance, it's sad to say but it's true. We're just lucky to have one but you know what, we should also have a health savings so that if ever we need it in the future, we have it right away. That way we don't have to worry where to get money to pay our bills. Remember that not 100% are covered by any insurance company.
