It’s the birthday of my sister today. If she’s with us, I would have made lots of surprise greetings for her like putting the birthday greeting on a banner or on a traditional birthday card. Or I could try doing an outlandish rack card printing of our surprise greetings. But she’s miles away, so just allow me to sing happy birthday now, hoping the tropical winds will carry my song to Central America. 
Happy Birthday J!
Speaking of birthdates, I hope that our new baby gets delivered today. It would be great if her birthday coincides with my sister’s. But no rush there. If she comes out today, great. But if not then, there’s God’s perfect time. Stay tuned.
Loots ordered online came by mail today. You bet I’m so thrilled!
With the Internet, shopping, among other things i.e trading, advertising, etc…, has absolutely become so convenient; and with Smartmoney, same thing goes for paying – much to my wallet’s dismay. Lol. Like now, I’m already thinking of doing another online shopping. 
Aist, got to really remind myself to save, and to save some more for an upcoming trip outside of the country.
Now on another somewhat related note, I bet this Forex trading software makes trading even more easier than it already is. I’ve got to ask a friend who’s into online trading. For the meantime, dear traders, what can you say about it?
We don’t really celebrate The 4th of July ’round here but I have friends who are on the side of the globe who is celebrating today. So I might as well greet Happy 4th of July to everyone celebrating.
And also, Happy 4th of July to Mr Sheriff. Thanks for the shower of love.
Today is my mom’s birthday, so allow me to deviate from my regular programming to greet the most important woman in my life. Happy happy birthday Mother! I always pray for you to constantly have a happy heart, cheerful disposition and most of all, I pray for a long life and more fruitful years ahead of you. I love you.
How would you feel when the resto where you’ve just eaten your lunch/dinner has no comfort room? Is it okay with you? Or would you feel pissed?
Normally, I would be okay with this AS LONG as there’s a comfort room nearby. But if there is none, then that doesn’t seem right, ayt? But I’ll still have a little tolerance –in some cases.
But yesterday, I was so pissed when I found out that Mang Inasal-SM CDO has no CR within its premises. Given that: I am pregnant and I can barely hold some water in the bladder; I have just eaten a full meal along with a big drink(!); and then, I couldn’t walk as fast as my brain can think, can you even imagine how mortified I was just knowing they have no CR in there? The walk to the mall CR was really a big inconvenience!
Sigh, sigh. Okay, enough of this verbal diarrhea, I better check some car insurance companies now. And oh before I forget, I do love eating at Mang Inasal. Their chicken are simply roasted to heavenly goodness!
Disclaimer: This is definitely not a review, since the I am not an expert of this thing and also, I have no experience with a similar product of other brands.
No, it’s not about one of those weight loss products. I just want to say post that I’m using it, the AccuCheck Active glucose test kit. Since I was advised by the endocrinologist to take blood samples (to check my blood glucose) every now and then, and so I use it. It’s so simple to operate, I just have to click a finger with the Softclick pen (lancet inside), insert a strip on the glucometer and let a drop settle on the strip for the reading.
It’s also so convenient to bring anywhere because everything I need can be placed in that blue plastic box.
So there, that’s just all I wanted to say.
I’m really so amazed with what modern techology can do, or better yet what modern electronics can do.
There used to be the electronic mail or cards which you can conveniently send with a tap of a button, consequently, receive in a jiffy. E-mail or e-cards are just awesome replacement to snail mails which are costly and takes so long to reach the recipients.
Then, sometime ago, we heard about e-books on Kindle. What great thing that was. Imagine to read books anytime and anywhere. And we’re all thinking about iPads now!
In the recent election, we’ve seen how the TV companies make use of the Hologram effect, where the reporter looks as if it’s just in the studio facing the anchor person, in presenting field reports.
Then I found out about electronic cigarettes, that simulate smoking activity without the expense of one’s health. I don’t really smoke nor do I condone the habit, but I’m so amazed that people can now smoke using an e-cig which contains no tar, tobacco or some carcinogens. Hah, with all this thing, I can’t help but wonder what’s the next electronic innovation. Or that is there an electronic coffee existing already?
Oh that’s me. On the second thought, a better and apt term would be “curious penguin,” if there’s such a term. Okay, I don’t think I need to elaborate on that. Don’t let me, p-l-e-a-s-e. Lol.
Anyway, I brought this subject up because I met a new term online and that is Irvingia Gabonensis. Have you ever read or heard of that before? I definitely have not. *vigorously shaking head* Is that a medicine? A disease? For all I know, it could be a name of a person –although it would be a weird name. What could it really be. So there, it got my attention.
And because I’m curious, I looked it up and read about it. Ha, now I know! And I’m adding that to stock knowledge. *smiles* Anyway, I don’t want to spoil the fun (heheh), so if you’re curious like me, click the emboldened term above and find out what it is.
Oh it’s already May 1. Time to start the countdown leading to the national election. I’m sure people who have invested much –blood, sweat, tear, money– in the election campaign are already antsy to get this over and done with .
Me, I’m also doing an internal countdown to my delivery date ( incidentally today is Labor Day in the country and so goes one of the reason of this countdown). Three more months of taking four different kinds of prenatal vitamins. Three more months of walking like an obese penguin, eating like a pig and heaving like never before! My tummy is bigger and heavier, and so there’s three more months of wearing a support belt.
When the time comes, I hope I have an easy and safe labor –and that our baby is happy, healthy, strong and smart. Praying earnestly.
It’s late at night and I’m making a list. It’s not the usual what-to-dos or my grocery list but it’s a shopping list of sorts. An online shopping list, I should say. And a quite expensive one because there’s pretty much in the list already, I might add. And I’m still adding more to the list — haaay, a pro/con of online shopping is that you can never really get too tired with just your fingers doing the walking, ey? =) No more getting dressed, no more brochure printing (oh maybe sometimes there is), no more queuing… Yup, so convenient that sometimes, you can easily be tempted to buy more.
But what can I do? I know I need these things. And the coming baby would need these things too, as the list actually consists of mommy-baby essentials. Now I have to decide when to click checkout.
