Lights out

 I was playing with my Chrysoprase Beads when the rain started to pour. I was so glad the hubby’s home so it became a fun family time instead of a scary night.

When the lights went out, it became a fun time for conversation and scary stories. I guess I’m happy I’m part of a family.

It must be miserable for others though due the heavy rainfall and the winds but at that time , tomorrow’s news would have to wait.

Cake Sisters Majesto

Just ordered, the girl I spoke with was friendly in the morning but seems impatient when I went back to pay. I did ask a lot of questions, she was not rude or anything but I sensed she wanted the whole deal to be over like she had something better to do.No thank you too when I left. She was not the owner but she could be the sister I’m not sure.

This is another cake that’s just so lovely. A Tangled Cake.

It would be nicer if I left feeling happy about my order. But I guess as long as the cake turned good and yummy then It would be fine.

Just check out the details on the picture with their contact number if you’re interested.

The couch to 5k Running plan

So I tried running, not the easiest thing in the world. I read from Cool Running dot com about the Couch to 5k Running plan and I like that you can pace yourself. On the first week, you actually need a chain hoist to make me run again after the first 20 seconds but I got the hang of it. I’m still on the 2nd week but it gets to be an addicting thing to do each morning. I did have some back pain during the first week and I found out I was slouching a bit so it strains my upper and lower back. Hardly a runner at this pace more of a jogger but I like how it feels. You should try it.

The Avengers

The Avengers was fun to watch except for the first half where I thought it would go on forever. I found the Tesseract has that kind of power that could probably overthrow all the superheroes moves. I loved the Hulk and the comic relief that Iroman provides. The Avengers gifts would be so fun to give if you loved the comics and the movie. I wanted to see the Thor movie just so I know each and everyone’s character real well but I guess I have to wait a long time before it goes on cable.

Looking young and looking great

All the products in the world being sold on the web for younger looking skin can make you wish there’s an eye barcode scanner online . One wink and you’ll know the price plus maybe additioal reviews too ha ha. I just saw a photo of me holding my 3 month old baby and although I weigh much much more, I do have better looking skin. So what does this tell me? I need a facial, spa day and maybe buy one of those anti aging creams. Is there hope still ? *)

Money from pots and pans

I got a cousin who actually earns a living selling pots and pans. I think one of what she’s selling is Frymaster stainless steel pot. I guess some people have this knack at selling. I never had that gift but I guess it can be honed too. I’m amazed at how she gets her contacts but somehow she never really runs out of people to sell to or households to go to. She managed to earn a living, travel and buy the things they need. Just simply amazing.

Stop Smoking Now

I smoked once for a couple of months when I was younger. The reason I stopped was a month of coughing bout. Smoking Lucky Strikes thinking I was cool and all that. It certainly was not cool when I started coughing every few minutes. It not only hurts, people would slooowly start to move further away thinking I have a horrible disease.

Now, losing weight is in a way sort of like quitting smoking. It is both an addiction, one to food and the other to looking like an exhaust pipe. I remember my mom saying when a few young relatives of ours excused themself to smoke “They don’t think it hurts now but they would finally find out when they get a bit older.” I think that’s what happens, you smoke and smoke now because seriously you don’t feel sick, don’t feel it matters and you could deal with it later.

Truth is, if you quit early then you can benefit from it’s effects. Did you know that smoking can actually cause stains on your teeth, pre mature aging and damage your organs. The last being the foremost of your worries because smoking can cause heart attack, lung disease, cancer. You laugh now but the day will come when you cry in pain and wish you can turn back time and quit when you were young.

Moving up

I’ve never been really a go getter in terms of career. I guess I just worked and enjoyed each job I’ve been to. Now, some people do know what they are going to be in life and aimed for their goals big time. One of them is Neil Haboush.

I read about his story and marvel at how he achieved his goals. First he took a course that I for one will never ever think of taking. B.Sc in Political Science and Economics. Who knows how much math is there, lol. I do however always did dream of owning my own business, a clothing line or a shop selling knick knacks. He did that too and actually had a good run for a little while. When things went sour, he did not give up and found another niche to focus on, customer service which then evolved into data services. Level One Data Services is now a major player in the industry.

Now the whole story is here to tell you that you should never give up on your dreams, look for things that will fulfill you even when others tell you everything is just looking bleak, head out and find a little light that will show you where to go to next.

Salted Garlic Squid

I could never get tired of North Park’s Salted Garlic squid. I just love it’s taste along with the sauce on that Chinese Rice. My sister and I when we were still living together order this at home. Now my daughter loves it too.

Ups and downs

Everyone’s life story even if summarized, folded in envelopes will never fit  in mens leather wallets because the story goes on and on. As I age I realize I need to value the time I spend here on earth with people who matter. A few minutes count for a lot and these are minutes you can never get back.

What will happen if I’m gone, I need to make sure my loved ones can continue on with a lot of courage and stability. I guess as a mom I worry too much.
