Sudden Loss


Every one was so shock when they hear the news last Thursday that Michael Jackson had died of cardiac arrest. And on that same day another most loved celebrity passed away, Miss Farrah Fawcett.. I still can't believe that Michael Jackson passed away at the age of 50. It was sudden and shocking... I guess all we can say is may his soul rest in peace...

Spring Must-Have

Spring season is here where everything is beautiful. Flowers bloom, green leaves on trees, green grass everything just coming alive so to speak. As nature doing it's job restoring its natural beauty, we often forget a little bit of detail of spring season brings to us. The down part of it. Bugs! I have a 2-yr old who loves going outside and mosquitoes loves him,too. So, before spring season comes my medicine cabinet is already ready for it. Here's some stuff I kept stock in my M-cabinet:
1. Bug repellent. My son and I is highly susceptible on bugs may it be gnats, fly, and mosquitoes,they just love us.
2. Sun block. You don't wanna get sun burn, it's awfully painful. Recommended Spf is 50 or higher. Even though, its not that hot outside UV rays could still be high.
3. Aloe Vera Gel. Well, sometimes if we really get in a rush we forget to put sun block lotion on. Just be safe, keep aloe vera gel its not only good for sun burn but to other kinds of burns,too.
4. Anti-Itch Cream. I always have this with me. It relieves annoying itch and it helps you from not scratching it .
5. Anti-biotic Cream. I just have to have this. It's handy.
6. First Aid Kit. This you don't wanna forget. It comes with everything including the ones above but in smaller packages.
Before you go outside this week-end do your yard work or what ever don't forget to put sun block lotion and bug repellent on. Better safe than sorry.
Have a nice week-end!

Shopping Smartly

Cutting back your grocery bill is tricky and time consuming but the end result is rewarding. Because of the economic downturn consumers are trying to find ways to cut back. One of the candidate is your grocery bill. Here some few tricks/tips that I do whenever I go grocery shopping.
1. Make a list. Making a list saves you time and energy in the store. You don't wander in the store thinking what else you need and what you've missed.
2. Create a budget. Before you leave figure out how much you are going to spend and stick with it. Itemized the things that you need and you don't need.
3. Use coupons. Clippings of coupons in Sunday paper is the great way to save. Another way to get coupons is through web sites. There is a lot of site out there that give coupons of your favorite product. You just have the patience to look for it, though.
4. Comp it. Some stores allow comping from their competitors, like Wal-mart. You can comp prices from other stores like sale and clearance. I like going Wal-Mart because it's a one-stop shopping store for me.
5. Buy off-brands. Buying off-brands is not gonna hurt you. They're just the same value of the name-brand items but cheaper.
6. Get in, get out. I always make it sure that I avoid temptations. I go in, grab what I need check out and leave. I go browse the store later.
There probably a lot of ways to save money out there, and if you have something to add please don't hesitate to leave a comment. I'll appreciate it.

"mommy, I got an Ouchy"

My son and I were doing our everyday walk. He was pushing his lawn mower toy when he slipped in the driveway. Twisted ankle landed on his knee and face flat on the ground. I thought, okay, he always fall but this it really hurt him. He was crying and doesn't wanna stand on his feet. So, we do first aid, put ice on the ankle maybe it will ease the pain. But, we're wrong he still doesn't want to stand. We forced him to stand and walk and just we found out he was limping and crying out of pain. We really get concern about it because he never really cry that hard. He usually fall and go on but this it's different. So we rushed him in the ER, took an x-ray from his thigh to feet and no bone was broken and found out he has a deep bruise, whew, what a relief! It's hard sometimes when your baby gets hurt and he can't tell you exactly whats wrong( he can't talk yet). You get panicky and nervous. I know I was. And it's been almost two weeks he still limping and it so painful to watch him walk. I wish I could just take the pain from him. Hoping he'll feel better soon.
