I should have been relaxed and at ease but my schedule for today was not met since I wasn’t able to do the laundry yesterday, I slept very late last night to finish my online tasks but were not able to finish them all and I woke up very early to the do the laundry and went to my parents place before lunch. Got home at around 3 p.m and I really felt so tired and sleepy, took a 1 hour sleep and now I am up to finish another round of household chores. Oh well, I need to iron my office clothes and Gabby’s school uniform. I need to sleep early tonight to recharge and be ready for another week of office works! BTW, a relative of DH from YS is inviting us to come over as they have the Las Vegas Show Tickets on hand. OH well, a trip to the US has been a long time dream for us.

Beauty Business
It was December last year when I had my hair rebond. My hair have grown long already and is now shoulder length. But I am thinking twice if I will undergo a treatment this December again because I noticed that my hair has become brittled and dry. Or was it because I never did take any follow up treatment afterward?! like hot oil, etc. Beauty parlor nowadays are sprouting here and there, competition is quite stiff and other special side dishes are being offered like spa, massage therapy. etc. I think it’s also a good business nowadays, since there is quite a demand for beauty houses. Oh well, I think I need to make a careful study on this one and enroll in a beauty school houston to know the ins and outs of the beauty set up. Or might as well undergo a training for a beauty specialist.
Relieved!
Is what we felt after we went to an EENT Specialist this afternoon, Gabby has been long complaining about her left ear. I would sometimes caught her trying to shake her head or insert her finger to her left ear. There was also a foul smell and dark yellow stain on cotton buds whenever I clean her ears after taking a bath. We were so worried that she might be having an ear infection or her ear drums might be broken. But thank Gd that it was not the case when the doctor checked on her ear, Gabby was very cooperative and behave all through the session. She had an impacted cerumen which is a condition in which earwax has become tightly packed in the external ear canal to the point that the canal is blocked.. In short “Nanigas na tutuli” The doctor performed an irrigation, I am happy that she was really very nice and friendly to Gabby. Irrigation process lasted for about 20 minutes or less I think. Oh boy! was really surprised when this little black and thick thingy was removed from her left ear, I just couldn’t imagine how it get stucks on her ears. The doctor then careful explained to us how to properly clean her ears
- clean the ears only twice a week
- never try to insert the cotton buds deeply into the ears for it is one cause and aggravates an impacted cerumen, which I think is what I am doing while I clean her ears. For the cotton buds will push the earwax to go inside the ear canal.
- clean/ remove the earwax on the external part of the ear just right outside the ear canal. For the ears naturally has its way on cleaning the internal part.
After the treatment we headed to Robinsons Pioneer to do the grocery, bought Gabby and Nicco their sketch pad and a slippers for Gabby. We left Nicco at home since it will be hard if we’ll tag him along to the clinic.
DOCS @ WORK. This clinic is just a stone throw away from home this is located at the Maysilo Circle.
Playing while waiting to be called.
Getting bored already.
We didn’t bother to take photo anymore while the irrigation process is performed. But this is how it’s usually done.
Irrigation is the most common method of removing impacted cerumen. It involves washing out the ear canal with water from a commercial irrigator or a syringe with a catheter attached. Although some doctors use Water Piks to remove cerumen, most do not recommend them because the stream of water is too forceful and may damage the eardrum. The doctor may add a small amount of alcohol, hydrogen peroxide, or other antiseptic. The water must be close to body temperature; if it is too cold or too warm, the patient may feel dizzy or nauseated. After the ear has been irrigated, the doctor will apply antibiotic ear drops to protect the ear from infection.
Irrigation should not be used to remove cerumen if the patient’s eardrum is ruptured or missing; if the patient has a history of chronic otitis media (inflammation of the middle ear) or a myringotomy (cutting the eardrum to allow fluid to escape from the middle ear); or if the patient has hearing in only one ear.
If irrigation cannot be used or fails to remove the cerumen, the patient is referred to an ear, nose, and throat (ENT) specialist. The specialist can remove the wax with a vacuum device or a curette, which is a small scoop-shaped surgical instrument.
Some doctors prescribe special ear drops, such as Cerumenex, to soften the wax. The most common side effect of Cerumenex is an allergic skin reaction. Over-the-counter wax removal products include Debrox or Murine Ear Drops. A 3% solution of hydrogen peroxide may also be used. These products are less likely to irritate the skin of the ear.

First Quarter Grades
of the little girl is here already!
We weren’t able to attend the PTA meeting last September 26. As it is the day when typhoon Ondoy came. meeting is held in the morning which also is the day of the distribution of their report card. It was only last Friday when DH got the little girls’ grade card. Her grades are ok. If I could afford a reward to a Las Vegas Shows we would definitely give her. ahaha She didn’t make to the top ten, but it’s fine for as long as she’s enjoying her study. But teacher P told DH that Gabby is no longer focus on her studies as she doesn’t listen when teacher is lecturing in their class, she would talk to her seatmate while the class is going on. Would just stare and doesn’t react when being talked to. I hope that she will cooperate more next time. I already did talk to the little girl and she promised me that she’ll be good at behave at school. I hope so! notice her attendance record, she’s never been absent during the first quarter and never been late too!

My sister loves flower so dearly, that she would never forget to buy one and put it on our center table everyday when were still living on the same roof during our single days then. We rarely see each other now that we have our own family to take care of. I am thinking of giving her a surprise baskets gift that I saw being sold online. I know she will definitely appreciate it very much. It’s been quite a while since I bought her something. ahaha. We were not able to visit and celebrated with her on her very special day last September 26. due to typhoon Ondoy will be heading to their place by tomorrow! can’t wait!

Coin Collections
People have different views and opinions, to each is own as they always say. There are also passions that we get involved with, depends on what we believe and feel like doing! Sometimes, we don’t really get what other people are doing, it may seem so irrelevant for us but so important for other people. A common hobby or interest lets us create a harmonious relationship with others as it keeps us attach at the same wavelength. Some are into sports, crafts, baking cooking,etc. etc.
A unique hobby that some people do is collecting coins, like that of the morgan dollars, and my Dad is one of them. He’s into collecting rare coins since he was young. According to him, his late grandfather gave him an old coin and told him to keep it as a token of remembrance. He kept it and later on developed the likeness and started to collect ones. At first, it seem just a simple hobby for him but as he continues to collect, he did some research about the coins and found out the significant value of those metal thingy. One differs from the other and so the stories of his collections started to grow. He would even travel different places and meet up with some other people with the same interest and common factor doing activities mostly about coins.
One of the recent topics and never ending discussions is about the 2009 Silver Eagle Coins Canceled which resulted to disappointment of the hundreds of coin collectors. Changes like these has a major effect on them of course as we all know how they value their precious collection! For some people who collect coins because of investment purposes are affected with it. Different coins have different value depending on it age and rareness. I think the more old it is, the higher the value appreciates as time passes by, coins that are produced long time ago have a higher substance of gold or silver in it I think, not to mention that it has been around and circulating for quite sometime is considered a part of history of course and The United States Mint is the one responsible in producing an adequate volume of circulating coinage for the nation to conduct its trade and commerce.
