Our plan of pushing through with our bathroom makeover have been put aside for awhile as we need to deal with the kids school tuition fee this time. I am still waiting for some funds coming from my online earnings to cover those expenses and so that I can also buy the wifi phone that I have been long waiting to purchase. Dh told me that he’ll be the one to take charge for the bathroom makeover funds. Oh well let’s see! We already bought a nice sink, a new toilet similar to the Saniflo toilet that uses a unique macerating system. Having a nice toilet keeps up a well comfortable bathroom.

I’ve been meaning to start up with the business I have in mind but still skeptical as I am not yet fully prepared financial wise. We need to save some more to be able to cope up for some other expenses that may arise. I wanted to be careful in everything I do especially if it involves money and business. As we have heard horror stories about people being fooled up, I remember the friend of my mom who was into jewelry business. She was given a gold bar in exchange of her other jewelries, only to find out that it has no value. So it was indeed very important that we have knowledge about the products that we deal with. With regards to gold information, there’s the United States Gold Bureau where you can find the necessary info that will be useful on investment and selling of gold business. They are a reliable and trusted company as they are authorized dealer when it comes to gold products.
1. Check your breasts.
The American Cancer Society recommends that all women over 20 years of age should check their breasts monthly. If you are unsure, consult a surgeon or OB-gynecologist to check your breasts. Breast cancer is the number one cancer killer in women. Look at the mirror and check your breasts for dimpling, nodes and other irregularities. For most women, you need a mammogram and ultrasound of the breasts, starting at age 40. Those with higher risk may start screening at age 30.
2. Get a cancer check-up
Next to breast cancer, ladies should be on guard for cancers of the cervix, uterus and ovaries. You need a regular Pap’s smear test and a pelvic examination with your OB-gynecologists. If everything is normal, the tests are done every 3 years. You should particularly be careful if you have multiple partners, or if your spouse fools around. Examine your thyroid, lymph nodes (check for nodules), oral region, skin (for black marks) for any suspicious masses.
3. Stop smoking.
Twenty percent of Filipino women smoke and the numbers are rising. This translates to many deaths due to lung cancer. Smoking kills. So I advise you to quit now. If you’re pregnant, smoking is twice as dangerous for you and your baby.
4. Care for your heart.
Maintain a healthy lifestyle. Remember the mnemonic, “sex-hdl”. This stands for S — quit Smoking, E — stop over Eating, X — eXercise regularly, H – treat Hypertension, D – treat Diabetes, and L – control you Lipids (cholesterol).
5. Check your weight.
Surprise, surprise! Studies show that Filipino women are more overweight than Filipino men. Two out of five women are overweight, especially middle-aged women. So ladies, control your weight if you want to avoid arthritis, diabetes and heart disease.
6. Know your BP.
Checking your blood pressure is a simple way to care for yourself. If your BP is greater than or equal to 140 over 90 mmHg, then you have high blood pressure and need a check up. For those with BP below 140/90 but higher than 120/80. You should be careful and monitor your BP. Maintain a healthy lifestyle to avoid developing high blood pressure.
7. Limit work stress.
It’s been proven that chronic stress kills. It elevates the blood pressure and makes the blood thicker. Although we don’t want to endorse a lazy lifestyle, too much stress can cause heart attacks and ulcers.
8. Take a calcium tablet.
After menopause, women need to take a calcium supplement to protect their bones. A good option is Calcium lactate with vitamin D. Drinking skim milk is also fine.
9. Avoid urinary tract infection and pelvic infections.
Because of the unique anatomy of the female organ, ladies are more prone to urinary tract infection than males. This is because the urethra in women is shorter than that of the males. Thus, infections and bacteria can easily penetrate the bladder. So make sure you wash thoroughly after urination. After defecation, wipe the tissue backwards and not forward where some dirt can enter the vaginal area.
10. Get a basic laboratory exam.
Here are the basic lab tests for women:
Blood exams: Complete blood count, creatinine (check the kidneys), uric acid (check for gout), cholesterol (high fat diet), fasting blood sugar (check for diabetes), and SGPT (check the liver).
Urinalysis: Check for urinary infections and kidney problems.
Electrocardiogram: Check for heart problems.
Chest x-ray: Check for lung and heart problems, especially for smokers who are at risk for cancer.
Here are the 10 best ways to protect your kidneys:
1. Limit your salt intake. Too much salt is not only bad for your blood pressure, it’s also bad for your kidneys. Many Filipinos die of kidney disease, which can be partly attributed to our high salt intake and fondness for fish sauce, soy sauce, bagoong, plain salt and salted fish. Salt may also cause kidney stone formation.
2. Don’t load up on high protein foods. Dr. Montemayor explains that too much protein makes the kidneys work twice as hard. A friendly reminder to people on a high-protein diet. Don’t overwork your kidneys. Eat a balanced diet of rice, vegetables, fish and fruits and you can’t go wrong.
3. Keep your blood pressure at 130/80 or lower.
4. Keep your blood sugar below 120 mg/dl.
5. Drink eight glasses of water a day. Drinking enough water prevents the formation of kidney stones, a painful condition, which if left untreated, can also lead to kidney failure.
6. Watch your intake of pain relievers and other drugs. Dr. Montemayor says that taking pain relievers for a prolonged period of time may cause kidney damage.
7. Be careful with tests and procedures using contrast dyes. Some tests, like CT Scans and MRIs, use a contrast dye, which may harm the kidneys. Consult your doctor first.
8. Don’t drink too much vitamin C. Too much vitamin C (ascorbic acid) can lead to the formation of kidney stones in predisposed individuals. According to Dr. Montemayor, if you need to take vitamin C, a dose of 500 mg a day is safer.
9. Take your maintenance medicines as ordered by your doctor.
10. Get a kidney check-up. Simple tests, such as a complete blood count, BUN and creatinine, and a urinalysis are the first screening tests for the kidneys.

The thoughts of shifting to another job has been bugging me again for quite sometime now. Though I really try to tell myself that I should stay still with my present one, I know deep inside that I wanted to go and move on. It’s been three years and I felt that I had enough here. I wanted to try something new and to another line of craftsmanship like in health and beauty this time. But I think that I need to go and study first in a beauty school like the ones of cosmetology schools in Wichita where I could learn a lot of beauty tips and tricks that I can apply later on when I venture to this kind of job. Learning is a never ending process and new things like this for me is a brand new opportunity that I can grab and grow with.

There are any cases that I heard about workers getting inflicted with diseases due to asbestos exposure like lung cancer and mesothelioma.Most of them are workers that are exposed to an unfriendly working environment in constructions etc. I have heard that most them have been ignored by the management of the company and are having a hard time getting some claims. That would be a saddening experience for somebody who wants to earn for his family and gets nothing in return after giving and dedicating a hard work. Good thing that there are Mesothelioma lawyer that will be of help during times like these where the expertise of an asbestos litigation is needed.

What are 5 things you love about your spouse/partner/significant other (or children or pet)?
I love my DH and kids because they always make feel special, are there whenever I feel low and down and cheers me up, makes me live my life on purpose, supports me on all the things I do.
Category : inspirations
I just love to cherish some moments being at the comfort of our home during long weekends without much activities to get busied with. Knowing and enjoying that your kids and DH are just within reached physically and I don’t have to dread walking outside in the afternoon at the peak of the heat of the sun, because I need to go to the bank for some transactions and I don’t have to rush home after office hours because it’s already traffic around after 5 p.m.. Oh well that’s the reality that I need to face everyday. Just a little patience and I know I’ll get over this. I might be enjoying some activities like swimming at the comfort of our home in the near future. who knows what’s ahead of us?! So as early as now I am looking around for some swimming pool supplies needed for our swimming pool in our future dream house. Having these supplies will be helpful enough to maintain the cleanliness and preserve the beauty of the pool. Dreaming is free and having it realized is the sweetest result of it.
