I am a little bit confused right now... I mean, I am REALLY confused right now. There are opportunities that I don't wanna miss but somehow I have this second thought. You see, I am conceiving for four months right now and in due time, we will have our second baby. So far, I have entrusted my MIL to take care of my Baby Jeush because it's just too difficult for me to trust someone else not belonging to my family. And now that we are expecting for our second baby, we need to move to my MIL's house for her convenience considering her age. However, there are many things yet that we need to consider. We need some major renovations. We need to have our own line of electricity and water. And all these incurs real expenses. However, I don't wanna take the risk considering that I need to save for the birth of my second baby. I am scheduled for C-section and I don't want to get stress financially when that day comes. 

I've got this friend of mine who offered one of her subdivision units for free, we'll just have to pay for the water and electric bills. According to her, we can stay there for at least five years (good enough for us to save for the renovation of my MIL's house). But the location is quite far from the city (but transportation is not a problem). She offered it to me long before I got pregnant with my second baby. The house of my MIL is within the city proper while my friend's house is quite far from me and my Hubby's workplace. But we got a motorcycle anyway and transportation vehicles are not really a problem at all. Maybe we just have to consider the gasoline and the fare but all in all, the place is more comfortable and conducive for living. Currently, my MIL is living with my hubby's sister (an old maid). She's into tailoring as her main source of living. I can feel that she will be hesitant to move with us at my friend's house considering that she was able to establish regular customers on her place. On the other hand, this friend of mine (the owner of the house) plans to partner with me on my online jobs by providing me with the gadgets that I need ( which I considered as such a real blessings) and I don't want to lose this opportunity. Blogging/Article writing really helps me a lot financially. I know I could go  a long way if I just have the gadgets that I need. With regular income through blogging, this will really help us a lot with our future plans.

And this is where the dilemma begins:

If my MIL will not go with us, we will be compelled to live with her and get used of the situation where the house isn't really that comfortable to stay with... OR we will be forced to hire a nanny, not one BUT two! (where can we find a trustworthy one?)

Oh,Lord, please guide our plans...

How about you, what can you suggest?

Our garage can be just one part of our house but most oftentimes this is the first area that is visible from the outside. Most of the time also, this is where we usually do the repair whenever there are problems with our vehicle. Whenever there are maintenance and repair works to be done at the garage, it is expected that tools and other necessary paraphernalia would be everywhere and tend to be unsightly from the outside view. In some cases also, we tend to misplace tools and do not know where to find them just when we need it the most. For situation like this, it is better to consider a better storage for our tools. Tool box may not be enough considering that there are tools that won’t just fit to our tool box. Why not consider garage storage like cabinets? GarageAppeal.com offers gladiator garageworks that will best answer to our needs. They have wall hung cabinets where our tools would be more organized and much presentable from the outside view. They also have mobile cabinets to make our garage repair work a whole lot easier and much more convenient. Their cabinets are built to last for long so you will really get the value of your money. It is better to have an organized garage storage system to avoid stress and waste of time. Can you imagine a garage minus the clutters? It would be perfect, don't you think? 

Save your workspace, be more organized, avail the gladiator garageworks from GarageAppeal.com. Check their website for more details!

My entry for:

Are you in need of plumbing repair and services? You might be thinking and wondering whom to approach to. Well, try to check for a local rotorooter in your area. Don’t just simply entrust your plumbing works to an individual who knew only a little about plumbing works. Look for those who provide a full service plumbing maintenance and repairs. Sometimes we can encounter plumbing problems that is difficult to identify especially if we don’t have any background or knowledge in plumbing repair works. You can also inquire your local community as to whom to trust to. Always go for those plumbing repair companies that are dependable enough and has been proven and tested when it comes to their accomplishment. It is better if our satisfaction is truly guaranteed in order for us to get the value of our money. Also consider the availability of your local rotorooter. As we all know, plumbing emergencies could happen anytime.

If you happened to visit in Portland, they have plumbing services there that has been operating for 75 years. Their experiences gain the confidence and trust of their community.

They are also available 24/7 which is beneficial to the Portland residents. They are open to both residential and commercial establishments. You can actually visit their site for more info.

I have heard about an anecdote once about a plumber. There was a man who asked for his services urgently because of malfunctioned faucet. The plumber complied willingly and gets the job done in just a matter of few minutes. When the plumber handed out the bill, the owner was so shock because the plumber asked him for a payment which seems too big for him so he asked the plumber," How could you bill me this much for a job that took you only for few minutes?” The plumber promptly replied, "Well, Sir, you are not paying me for the time I spent in fixing your faucet, you will pay me for the skills I exerted to get the job done". The owner couldn't say anything more and handed him the billed amount.

Logically, it needs time and patience to learn the plumbing skills. However, the return of those is good compensation which is worth the effort. Whether we admit it or not, every household needs the services of a plumber.

If one is emotionally hurt, it shows on the way he/she looks. 

It is quite difficult to disguise and pretend that we're okay, if it is really not. Sometimes, our relationship with other people will also be affected. Mood changes, so does our surroundings. It is even harder if the pain is too much to bear. It is such a struggle to smile. A simple nod is even difficult to do. When heart is hurt, the eyes tells it so. 

*Sigh*

Have you tried to eat red lobster? Sounds rare, isn't it? Don't you know that it takes an Atlantic lobster 6-7 years to get to an edible size, but that is just the beginning. Lobsters are long-lived animals, and are thought to be capable of living over 100 years! Now that's some fact that you ought to know. Here's another one,lobsters from Nova Scotia (one of the maritime provinces in Canada)  contains less saturated fat, calories, and cholesterol than beef, pork, or even the white meat of chicken. 100 grams of lobster (minus the butter!) only contains 90 calories! So for those who are health conscious, you don't need to worry about your health,go and indulge yourself with this sumptuous menu!

Question. 

Where on Earth can we find lobster without necessarily going from coast to coast for you to catch it? 

Well, you can actually find it in some bigger restaurants that offers fine dining. It could be part of their menu but don't be surprise when your bill will be much bigger than you thought!

Here are the Questions:

1. Do you tend to be more logically or emotionally driven in your decision-making?

2. Do you take vitamin or other supplements?  Do you feel that they actually work? 

3. Have you ever kissed someone and just knew they were not the right person or vise versa?

4. Why shouldn't the woman pay for a Valentine's Day date?

Here are my answers to the questions:

1. Honestly, am not really good in making decisions. I tend to be more emotionally driven and sometimes I ended up regretting it especially if the outcome isn't what I was really expecting to happen.
2. Because I am pregnant, I take my daily vitamins (MOSVIT gold) . It is what my Obstetrician-Gynecologist prescribed.
3. Definitely yes! and I considered those as bloopers in my love life LOL!
4. A man's pride, I guess. However, situations like that doesn't apply to everyone right now because there are women who are willing to pay whatever it takes for the man whom they really want especially if they earned bigger than the guy. Situation like that can also be discussed between the couple, they can actually agree to divide the cost incurred during their date.

Nowadays local internet marketing becomes a trend in the business world. Considering the number of people who have daily access with the internet, we can really bet that internet marketing is the best investment you could ever have. If you want to make a huge impact with your business today considering the competition with other businesses, you can have an edge by trying this kind of business strategy. Well, of course it needs an expertise in order to become a successful online marketer.All you need to do is to simply find out how and applies whatever it takes in order to be a part of this effective business solution.

What guarantees that internet marketing will really work?

 With the busy schedules of most people right now who can be considered as potential customers, we can reach out to them by bringing our business to them via online. With just few clicks away, they will be able to get the product or services that they want. Indeed, internet marketing can make the world smaller. Even if you own an establishment, it is still recommended to have an online site where your potential customers don’t need to make use of their time finding the things that they want on the shelves and falling in line to pay their chosen items. Time is of the essence for most career individuals nowadays and since they spend most of their time facing the computer, online shopping is the most convenient lifestyle for them in getting all their needs. There are so many advantages in getting on with the trend especially if you aim not to limit the delivery of your goods and services. Just like my personal experience. I long to own a time piece which is vintage in nature so I browse the net through my PayPal account where they have so many affiliates online marketer. Then I have found what I have been looking for through an online marketer based in HongKong. It’s a female wristwatch that has a very antique design and I really love it. What I also love most about the site is that they offer free shipping as long as my order will reach 10USD. Plus I got a 10% discount too! Now, I really love my wristwatch and it is unique. I could never find it in my local store.

However, the reality remains that internet marketing needs expertise. If you don’t have any knowledge on how to do it, seeking professional assistance is the best option. Just imagine what would happen to your business if it was  just once a known establishment only on the area where it was currently located and suddenly it become known to the whole world through the power of World Wide Web. Isn’t it pretty amazing? Now you cannot do it alone without the help of some professional. You must consider also that there’s a tough competition going on among internet marketers. So if you are just a neophyte on this kind of business strategy, better consult an expert. 

This is a sponsored post however, all the points and views are my own.

Mindanao University of Science and Technology (MUST) formerly known as Mindanao Polytechnic State College, continues to soar high as it embarks another year as one of the leading State Universities and Colleges in the Philippines.

Nowadays, renovating our home will not only cost us money, it also drains our energy. It is not easy to have home renovation. There are lot of things that we need to consider like budget, design and the manpower. Sometimes, when an idea suddenly pop into our mind in trying to make our home a comfortable place to stay, we do some drastic plans. However, if the output doesn't seems to go as we planned, we became frustrated. Now, we don't want to waste our resources over failed results, right?

So what should be done when planning to have a home renovation?

Before we do any drastic changes in our home, we consider our budget. Most often than not, our plans for renovation is greatly influenced with what we saw on  television or on a friends home or from those home design magazines. We should be realistic in our plan. Stick only to what you can afford. Unfinished job will cause us some stress. We should give emphasis on functionality over anything else. There are home designs that are pleasing in the eye only but not functional at all. This is only good if our home is spacious enough. But what if our home has limited space? Of course we have to reconsider our design.

When you trust home improvements Toronto, you could never go wrong with them. They have an online portfolio to brag about just in case you want some proof with their expertise.

It's February!

Yeah, I remember I used to pronounce the month as FEBUARY back in my elementary days. Funny, no one ever tried to correct me, I just learned it myself when I took a long pause in front of the calendar and read it out loud. While browsing my Facebook account with the status of my friends, one young lady friend of mine wrote on her status that it's SINGLE AWARENESS MONTH. Sounds funny for those who remain single (and contented to be that way). Then it occurs to me, why not? One really doesn't need to be in a relationship in order to celebrate the the so called "Love Month". There are countless ways wherein you can spread the love! You can celebrate with  your family and friends! Why not have an All-Girls Night Out, it could be real fun.Besides, it would be better for single men and women out there to enjoy their life while still single with no attachment/romantic involvement with anyone. Those who considered themselves as NBSB/NGSB or NO BOYFRIEND/GIRLFRIEND SINCE BIRTH, rejoice! You will long for that kind of freedom once you will be engaged or into a serious relationship. Oops, don't get me wrong, am not saying that staying single is okay than being romantically attached, it really depends on what's in your heart. What I am trying to say is that, while still in a single stage, live life to the fullest and don't be in a hurry to be in love... Let love find its way to you! After all, TRUE LOVE WAITS!

By the way, our church will hold again its annual TRUE LOVE CONCERT with the theme E.T.L.O.G. on February 22, 2013, 6-9PM at Capitol University. Curious about E.T.L.O.G? Be there when it happens so you will know. For more info visit their Facebook account
