One of the beneficial activity for the kid and adults is getting into sport. Health wise and physical, it offers a lot of benefits for us. So it is better to encourage everyone to go into sports, any that fancies you and the one that usually fits your personality, most important of all is your passion for it. Just like a cousin who is into archery, I must say that it is kinda different type of sport from the usual. Concentration and pulse is essential. But we are all happy that he’s pretty doing well into this sport, that another relative is supporting him all the way including financial assistance and buying him an archery equipment to keep him more motivated and inspired to do good in it.

Essential In a Trade Show
One of the few things that I miss from my previous work is the chance to get in touch with different people, communicating and interacting with them and attending events and trade show. We would often keep ourselves busy with setting up some trade show accessories and would really come up with some creative ideas that would often draw attention to our potential clients and customers. Tiring as it may seem but it keeps us in high spirit to aim and be more productive in our work. Those were the days when I have high hopes with regards to my job. But things have changed when I got my own family and has to slow down a bit and look after them first. Being in Marketing and Sales I must say is one enjoyable career.
Quick Update
For the nth time, pardon again for the lack of updates. Been too busy to sit down in front of the PC for a long time. Though I am up as early as 4 am every morning, it seems like I still need a lot more to finish everything on time. DH is off for a month long vacation outside the country, so I solely have to deal with taking care and attending to my kids’ need every morning before they head off to school. It’s a crazy schedule I tell you, I am still on the adjustment period but it pretty works well as I don’t have to excuse myself to office work. I just have to prioritize more of my offline duties for the meantime.
I am so looking forward to weekend already so that I can relax a bit. My only problem is budgeting and cooking. 😀 I really need to sharpen my skills on these two. Kids are now starting to miss their Chef daddy! Ok, I admit I don’t cook any special dish since the Dad left and it’s either fried eggs, omelet, fish that I can cook and I usually buy cooked meals in a nearby store. This weekend, my mom and sister will come over and we can eat some home cooked meals. hehe. DH brought with him the P/S camera so I just rely on my phone’s camera for some photo snaps that I put here in my blog. So there will be a slowdown for some personal posts here, but will try my best to update every once in awhile.
Being Smart About Your Money
The task of budgeting and managing all the household expenses often falls into the hands of the wife. There are less budget worries for couples while families with kids require a little more attention. Parents are willing to make sacrifices for the sake of their children and when it comes to expenses the allotment for kids’ expenditures often takes the most part. From school fees, food, medical and dental expenses, all these necessities should always be a part of the family’s budget.
With this tough economy, being smart will be a great help. Simple tips on how to save money can go a long way. Start by making a list of the family’s needs. Learn how to prioritize and make sure to weigh the options. Switching from brand names toiletries to generic products can promote a lot of savings. Be sure that you are not compromising the family’s health by buying quality foods that are fresh.
Think of ways on how the entire family can have fun without having to spend a lot. Staying at home, cooking together and watching movies can be a good family activity that does not require spending money. You can reward yourself and the family to a nice meal or fun in the mall at least once a month.
Being smart about money does not mean depriving your family with comfort and happiness; you can still have fun and pleasure even on a budget.

MYM: Tweety Bird
This is dear daughter’s bag tag. 😀 Tweety bird has been my fave cartoon character ever since I was a kid, good thing that DD also like her. We bought her bag last week, glad that we were able to get it at a discounted price. Will post the bag’s photo in my next updates as I need to rush things out offline, as we all know its a Monday and the first working day of the week for me and the kids in school.
Health Issues at Work
One of the few things that you have to consider when finding the right job is to make sure that you are really well and fit to work. Check out and always make sure that the company has all the necessary benefits being given to their employees especially if it is kind of risky on the part of their employee. There have been recorded case of Mesothelioma among workers after being exposed to some said substance but did not get any assistance. In this case, one has to hire and get the service of a Houston asbestos lawyer where they will take charge on every detail as they are the experts when it comes to whatever legal issue that needs their immediate attention,
My School Kids: THEN and NOW
I was going over some photos of the kids when I saw the shots taken on their first day before going to school. Time flies and how they grew up so fast! The little boy is now in Junior Kinder level while his Ate is on her second grade already. I am happy to note that that they are both doing good in school and is starting to build a good study habits, though we’re still having a hard time to wake up the little boy for his morning class. 😀 Next month, will be the start of challenge for me as I juggle my time between taking care of them and my day job as I solely need to take charge while DH is off for a month long vacation with his siblings in Australia. I am really hoping that my brother will be available at the end of the month to help me out while I am at work since I can’t take a long vacation off. Only if I could be a Work at home mom (WAHM), but that would be far from now since online tasks are scarce the past few months. But I am positive though and thankful still that I have been receiving a few despite the scarce in online opportunities. I hope things gets better both in my online and offline activities.
Friday Get Up
Since it’s the last working day of the week and added that its raining, I can wear casual clothes in the office today. I am wearing one of those funny tshirts that I have from the closet and in my flip flops! So I am all up to brave the flood water just in case. LOL! Yesterday was a terrible day, it took me three and a half hours to reached home. No thanks to traffic and flooded water in the streets! But glad that I was able to go home safe and sound despite the complications. A warm water bath is awaiting me that DH prepared while kids were already tucked in bed when I got home, had a late dinner with DH and glued on the TV for the news update after. Classes were suspended today so it’s a play day for the kids. Hope the weather will be fine today and no more floods please.
Managing Finances
This week marks the start for the school opening for most of the students, this would also mean another round up on the budget for the parents. Doing the math and finding ways on how stretch the funds to accommodate all of the expenses. Tuition fees, miscellaneous fee, school materials (bags, notebooks, books, uniforms,etc.), school allowance, etc. etc. Added to the regular household expenses and other payable. In this manner, a careful study and proper financial management is essential to ensure that you are on the right track and avoid any financial dilemma in the future. You may even check out on wealth management group to help you out in financial management. One should have a clear scope of your financial goals and be able to achieve them with the right attitude and resources.
Pink and Yellow
Here’s another flower from our garden. I just don’t know the name of this one. 😀 I love the the color combination- Pink and Yellow! Hope to grow more colorful flowers soon. It just gave a good and vibrant mood especially on early morning when we water them.
