What's up with that? I'm not condeming anyone who observes it. I just can't see the logic behind it. On the 'monthsary' fad, from what I've observed only steady boyfriend-girlfriend [in general anyway] actually observe this. I rarely see husband and wife celebrate, much less, talk about the 'monthsary' of their wedding, etc. Am I right, or am I right? Truth be told, some married couples even forget their wedding anniversary...how much more their 'monthsary'. I may be a killjoy but I really don't see the reasoning behind a monthsary. Is it so hard to keep a relationship going that you can't wait for the anniversary to come anymore to celebrate so you have to celebrate monthly instead of yearly? C'mon now... And while I'm on it, what's up with the monthly celebration of birthdays? Yep, cakes, balloons, treats included. From what I can remember we used to have those on the first birthday of the child. Once a year....not once ...

I've moved a few times in my lifetime. When I say move, I meant not just move from one city to another but from one country to another, then from one continent to another. So yeah, I've moved alright. But it doesn't matter where or what kind of move one is making, moving can be very stressful...especially if you do all the work yourself. The last time we moved was in 2008...it's just an intercity move so we didn't see the need of hiring movers. That wasn't a wise move on our part because it was painful...physically, mentally and emotionally. I told myself that next time we move, be it across the street or across the country, we will hire professional movers like Moving Companies AZ . I just think that with all the stress and the problems we went through during the last move, the money we'd spend for the moving company will be all worth it. It has come up recently that we MAY be moving sometime in the not so far future. There is nothing definite yet but I h...

Well, that wasn't the original plan this weekend but we ended up buying supplies for office even if we're not really short in that department. I just thought that since we're in an office supplies store yesterday and they have some pretty good deals going on because of the looming school opening, I decided to take advantage of the situation. I didn't even know we were going somewhere until hubby asked if we wanted to tag along while he looks for a set of earphones. Since we didn't have much to do and the little one wanted to go somewhere I decided that we should go with him. Unfortunately, we couldn't find what he wants so he went home empty handed while I came home with a bunch of office supplies as well as some dresses for me and the little one. That's what you call 'impromptu' shopping. Ha!

The 2012 Summer Olypics has officially started today in London. I saw the video where James Bond aka Daniel Craig picking up the Queen to escort her to the venue but I cannot find the video in You Tube anymore. I guess it has some copywright issues or something so it was pulled right away. Anyway, I've never really watched the Olympics. I remember in 2008 when Michael Phelps was winning  left and right I was blogging about it very often. He was like the face of that particular olympics because he was making history by winning as many medals as he did. This time around, it wouldn't be that easy for him from what I've been reading. I read he barely made it to finals of the 400 IM and then lost during the race itself. The biggest shocker??? He didn't even get a medal. A first since competing in the Olympics in 2000. Oh well... I guess he just can't win 'em all, eh?

Eversince I started working from home, I've always been on the hunt for that perfect job I can do while in the confines of my own home. I have to say I've been fortunate enough to find some but that doesn't mean I have stopped searching. As a matter of fact, I am always actively looking for something else [or should I say more?]. Anyway, everytime I do a search one type of job always comes up... copywriting . It seems there is no shortage when it comes to this type of job because it's there is almost always an opening somewhere for a copywriter. I am not a writer per se but I like to write. Through bloggling, I have to actually like it even if at times I don't feel like doing it. Copywriting is something I'm quite interested in learning sometime in the near future. I've done a little bit of research about copywriting when I first came across several jobs looking for a copy writer. It's only recently that I've become more interested in pursuing it...

The little one's favorite thing to do in the world is probably draw. Well, definitely draw. I'm sure where she gets it from....not me. A friend once said to me that I couldn't even connect dots if my life depended on it and I can only agree. The little one knows that so there's really no keeping it as a secret. Anyway, she usually draws on her magna doodles. Lately though she's been using her Nintendo DS to draw. Recently she discovered that she can actually make a 'motion picture' using an app in the Nintendo. Now, if you've seen how animated movies are done you would know that every frame in these animated movies needs hundreds of images. The little one saw how it's done in one show and has been fascinated with it everysince. She's been drawing in her Nintendo every chance she gets. Her favorite characters to draw are Scrat and Scrate of Ice Age. She's still getting the hang of it but she's getting good at it. She started doing stick ...

It seems more and more people I know are having babies lately. Am I jealous? Of course I am but that's all there is to it since I don't think we can handle a baby at this point [and age] in our life. Anyway, my niece is expecting while a niece [in-law] gave birth a couple of months ago. Recently, a good friend emailed to let me know he and his wife are expecting their second child. That only means one thing, I have to start looking for something to give them as a congrats gift. My friend and his wife have an 'always on the go' family. They like camping and doing things outside the house...very unlike us and I know what I want to give them....a baby carrier. I already started searching for the perfect one for them and I think I may have found it. Designed by an active sailor and rock climber, these Beco baby carriers ensure you stay on-the-go with your baby. I'm sure this type of baby carrier will be very useful to them once the baby arrives. Because of all these ...
