What a Day

Yesterday was oneof those days that everything was not right. Starting in the morning when I turned on my computer my outlook was I guess did not close right last time I used it. So I had to wait 6 minutes and it is the longest 6 minutest in my life that have to wait half hour. I end up ask somebody to do my jobs because everybody were screaming where are the paper works. One I was already logging in and my outlook was working? My callpilot was the one not working wherein I have at least 400 faxes received from our facility. Right after we have our department meeting for an hour so more faxes been added, 3 more people suppose to help me but for some reason their call pilot was not working either. By the time I caught up it was already 1 o’clock in the afternoon. This not acceptable because I was way too behind it means our biller and admission will be behind on their daily quota as well.

The positive side on this is my supervisor knew what was going on. She had no problem about it and she understands. Sometimes situation like this happens.

Hoping that next days of this week will be a better day.

Nice To Be A Celebrity

We all know that being a celebrity is not easy. We might say that they make big bucks but the hard work they put through is worth it. Being a celebrity I found out that there is this Celebrity connection, it is a place that they can pay so much and they will do all the work for you like celebrity booking. All they need is just to show up. It is nice to be a star because if you have great celebrity coordination more likely you will be successful in the show business. Look at Miley Cyrus for a young age she is the most popular celebrity in the show business. She was discovered by Disney and has her own TV series Hanna Montana, that her show makes her a big star. I bet you she has one of the most celebrity endorsements. Anywhere you turn you always heat anything about her. In stores you’ll find a lot of stuff with Hanna Montanna on it. My kids love her.

My kids were so glad to be invited on a birthday party that they can dress up like a star. But hey my kids was having fun on that they look at their photos are they cute?

In case if you will become a celebrity don't forget celebrity connection to do all the work for you. you only worry about paying them or you can hire me?

What My Zodiac Says

I visited Rose's blog and she have this zodiac sign on her post I am curious what mind says.

Web Guild and Oreilly

Is it for real or what? But I know the fact that if Oreilly has an opinion on something he is not afraid to say it in public. He believes on freedom of speech. But what I read on this site as my understanding. O'Reilly contacted old boy's network and asked them to demand that WebGuild change the name of their event and conference and to cease supporting WebGuild. They had been getting harassment until they change the name. O'Reilly felt it was necessary to cut-off Google's support. Furthermore, O'Reilly contacted speakers, sponsors, and bloggers and asked them to withdraw support for WebGuild Conferences and Events.

As a result of this, they have not had a venue for events for the past few months. Many of them have been asking when the next event will be. They are happy to announce that the events are back on track and we will be holding the next event on May 7, 2008.

Transportation Vehicle

Growing up in Philippines where the main transportation is a jeep. If you are feeling lazy to walk you can ride on a jeep or a tricycle if it is available where you are from. My parent did not own any vehicle. My father was a pineapple truck driver of Del Monte. Now luckily I did help them and buy their own jeep so that they have an income of their own. But way back before i was married and live here in USA I have to do a lot of walking. I did not complain because I used to it. But now being here in US for over 8 years I accept it that I am already spoiled. Even just to go to a store across the street from my house I still have to drive. Being here made me very lazy. I only walked at break time at work this will be my exercise. Is it bad or what.

Speaking of transportation funny thing is I don’t care what kind of vehicle I am driving the important, it is in good condition that will last for a while. I have a friend of mine whom their daughter at that time was 3 years old already know all cars and can tell the difference, by simply pointing on the symbol like for example the New Mercedes DC she can tell right away what kind of vehicle it is. I was shock. This girl is so smart. The parent will be in a big trouble once she turns 16, have a license and want to have a car of her own.

How about you, you think you know all kinds of cars? You think you are way better that 3 years old? Let me know what your answer .

Day of Good News

Yesterday was the day of good news to me. Finally I received a response from INS about my mothers Visa Application. Now we need to fill up DS-230 and let my mom sign one of the papers and let me worry myself on filling everything. Once everything is all set, as her agent, I will mail the DS-230 together with the supporting documents back to NVC National Visa Center in New Hampshire. Hopefully after a month we will receive a schedule for her interview. I will keep my fingers cross that everything will go smoothly accordingly. right now everybody are excited for her to be here with us especially my kids.


About my blog, it’s been doing good I have people whom I am keeping in touch with like Maya, Rosemarie1, Maridee and Dexie. It is nice meeting new friends even only here in blog world. I did talk to Dexie couple time I know I made her day. Her husband heard her loud laugh every time we talked. For Maya her messages are always keeping an excitement on me on checking what she has for me. I love all here messages. I can feel it really came from within the heart. Rose she is always my sister we are not related in blood but the friendship we have is almost we are. Just sad to say probably we will not meet personally. Maridee as soon as she shared to me her secret, right then I told myself she is a good friend because even she don’t know me that well she shared her secret to me. Which means she trusts me and I want her to keep on trusting me? Maridee is also a sister to me I love her dearly. A good friend never lies to her friend. Be always honest. That is one important for me in a friendship.

Good news is always good right? Who does not like to receive any good news? I will truly give bright color of your day. Like mine it surely did. I can’t wait for my mom to be here with us. I with Gods will she will be here with us.

Mommy's Little Girls

Kids grow too quick. I can’t remember those days without them in my life. My girls are 2 years apart. Those tiny babies that I was holding in my arms now they growing to a beautiful and lovable young girl. Having girls are very nice I can share a lot of common things with them. I can play with their toys that I never have when I was a kid. I am not only their mother but also their friend and their playmate. With them I feel like I am still a kid.

My kids are very lucky because they have all kind of toys you can think of. Their bedroom looks like they have a toy store. And closet looks like they have a Baby Clothes or a kids clothes. One positive thing having both girls and closer to age they can share clothes. When Angel was little she used most of Leona’s Baby Clothes . I keep most of Leona’s clothes I already know by then that if I will have another baby I will be having another girl. And my gut is right.

Now that summer is almost here I need to buy them more clothes. Now it is impossible for them sharing clothes. Angel is almost wearing the same size of clothes as Leona. My girls they don’t like the idea of using each other’s clothes. As what I always heard from them especially from Angels mouth its MINE. If its mine that’s it, the end for argument.

What you think sharing clothes is all right or what? How you rate yourself if you will be parent or already a parent? How good parent are you to your children?

Embarrassing Moment in my Life

Few years back during a Halloween I can't believe I did that. I know how to read but that time I guess I don't. That tells me that i should always be alert even everybody are around still be cautious all the time. Like Gulf oysters who does not like sea food? Be oyster aware everybody.

I need a storage space?

Having a house with no enough closet is not great especially us who have a lot of stuff. My husband love to read books and he collects coin and card. Sometimes I don’t know where to put them. I wish I can just throw them in the dumpster but I don’t think it is a good idea. I was thinking to have an extra storage outside the house. I don’t care how small or big, the important is I have extra space where I can put some stuff that as of now we don’t use. Right now we have some decorations for each holidays. I want to keep them. Some clothes that maybe in the future I still can wear them. Wish me luck on this hahahahah. Anyway I prefer to put all extra boxes in the storage. A Metal Buildings for storage is good enough. As long as it keeps dry and no leaks inside rain or shine or even snow can’t get inside is great for the purpose.

My brother-in-law prefers to have a wooden one but hey the lesser money to spend is better for me. I hate to spend on something that I know there is a cheaper way. Roger is fine with a Metal Buildings for storage, we’ll see if he is fine with it when we have to put it together. He is not the typical guy who enjoyed putting stuff together. I will cross my finger that no swearing while we are working on it. Wish me luck everybody.

Feeling Unwelcome

Last Saturday my family was invited to a kid’s birthday party. The mother is a Filipino I met her on friendster, but not yet been introduced with each other personally. The party starts at 12pm to 3 pm. We got there just right on time. Not much people yet. The host was somewhere busy preparing for herself and the husband was right there I introduced my family to him first. We were standing up for at least 10 minutes and without any invitation we set on the couch for another 15 minutes that was awkward. There was couple Filipino but not even one introduced them. Until somebody I know came and I have somebody to talk to and especially when Jessiettes’ family arrives the more I was happy now finally I have a friend and Roger have someone to talked to. I felt bad about him. I never felt that way before especially on meeting new friends for the first time. Especially my kids they usually no problem on meeting new friends but them they stayed with us until Bernadette came.

At least until the host was out busy entertaining everybody she was nice very nice and her husband as well. But the other visitors they had we felt not welcome. You can tell the way they look at you like you who are. I know they already have this special click with each other and as the newbie to the group at least one of them should introduced themselves and make us feel welcome. I met a couple of them they are nice the rest I am not sure. I did have a conversation with others but more on an American mother who have 2 young kids. Can’t remember her name she was nice.

Overall the party was okay. The kids were having fun afterwards. They have a lot of games and did some crafts. It was a gorgeous day. Foods were great. A lot of Filipino foods, I love most the dinuguan and the turon, uhmmm yummy.

What's The Best Bedroom Theme?

Last Sunday I was ambitious to do cleaning around the house especially in my kid’s bedroom. I took out all the clothes that they no longer fits and give it to Salvation Army. Now spring time they want to have a new look on their bedroom. Leona wants princesses stuffs while Angel wants to have fairies. Now I am thinking how I will do this that not going to cost me that much. Both of them sleep in different bed. Leona has a queen size bed and Angel a full size. These kids are very lucky because they are sleeping in a big size bed by themselves. As I remember way back home in Philippines I have a full size bed and I have to share it with my sister and sometimes with two other people if we have company in the house. Anyway back to my kids, I am thinking to buy them their own Kids Bedding that they really want. Right now both have matching Kids Bedding set. Little by little I will buy more decoration for their bedroom according to their choice of bedroom theme.

I prefer to have a specific theme in each part of my house anyway. Like in my bedroom I have an Angel theme and my bathroom is palm and I am thinking to switch to dolphin or penguin. For the kids bedroom I will mix and match princess and fairies. What do you think? Is it a good idea to have a theme in every part of the house especially the bedroom? How about you what is your bedroom theme?

Here are my kids when Leona was almost 3 years old and Angel was still a baby, oh my my babies are growing too quick. They used to sleep in a crib now in a big girl bed and we are in the process of having a new theme in their bedrooms? My oh my.

Thanks God It's Saturday

Good morning people, here I am Saturday morning I woke early what's up with this I should supposed still be in bed but right now I am so wide awake. I woke up 6am, others might say it is not early but to me it is, this is the time I woke everyday of the week and should be except for weekend but does is not the case. My body is used to my routine I guess. Everybody in the house are still sleeping beauty. I try to chat with my family in Philippines but was not successful probably they already in bed. I will try again tonight.

Today we have a girls 6th birthday party to attend. The theme for this party is Hollywood. My kids are very excited, they can wear their bling blings.

Right now I have to start cleaning the house and maybe prepare a breakfast for them. But first thing first my COFFEE. I need to wrap the present too.

Okay that's it for now everybody. Have a good week end to you all.

Looking for a Mortgage Loan?

Couple years ago it is easy to get a home mortgage loan. People like my brother in-law who have no credibility to get a loan did able to get a mortgage loan. People that should not get approve on getting a loan should not be approve. This is the reason why the markets now are getting down. Houses are being foreclosed because borrower at the first place can’t afford to have a loan. Now in order to get back the market where it used to be it is now getting harder to get a mortgage. Even just to get a loan for a car almost like your getting a loan for a house. How crazy is that? If you are really planning to buy a house better to have a little bit of knowledge how much you will be spending. At mortgage loan calculator it will help you an idea about a mortgage loan. Base on how much mortgage loan you are qualified for in this website it will give you an idea how much will be the down payment, mortgage term, interest rate, property tax per year and the property insurance per year.

This is definitely good for those 1st time homebuyers, even not. For a test to find out with yourself on how much you are paying now are exact or almost as what they telling you here. Try to do it yourself:

Real estates Realtor

My husband was once a real estate agent. He was not doing it now because the market was down. What happened was he spent more money in investing but not bringing any money in. I know the fact that being a real estate agent you really need to have enough cash on reserve. Hoping you belong to a Realtor Company. There is much Realty to choose from. Like if you live in Idaho there is Prestige Realty Of North Idaho that you can go to.

If you live in Idaho or thinking to reside and looking for property in Idaho I can recommend you to talk to anybody from Prestige Realty Of North Idaho. They been in the business for over 10 years and people proves that their service are great. Especially right now that they have this cash rewards going on. Where else you can go that somebody will give you as much as $10,000 rebate if they represent as your buyers agent. If you are a seller they will give you $3,000 on the closing date once your property sold and if not within the 65 days of the listing they will give you $10,000 rebate. You know what just to think about it pretty sure they will try hard to sell the property as soon as they get the listing. If you are interested enough please contact them and ask for an agent to help you look for a property or to sell your property.

If you visit on their site http://www.Northidahorebates.com you will find what I am talking about and you will find houses that are in market. As I can see I love all the houses they have low prices compare to the houses here in Massachusetts. If there is job waiting for us in Idaho I will not think about it but to buy a house and live over there. Never know maybe in the near future. We are not sure if we really want to stay here in Massachusetts.

Social Influence

I don't have the outgoing personality. I am a homebody, which means I prefer to stay home and do my house chores. If I socialized only to a certain people that I am comfortable to be with. When it comes to friends I am picky. I am friendly but I want to get to know you first before i can call you as my true real friend. If I say you are my friend that means I like you to be one.

My Specialized Greeting Cards

Every Holiday especially Christmas as much as possible my family’s tradition are sending greeting cards to our love ones. I have family here in US and in Philippines. Even we only have to do it once a year but we want it presentable to everyone. Like last Christmas what we did we took our own picture and did a bunch of photo cards and mailed to our recipient. Even just a picture alone I know that people who received out photo cards will appreciate the effort we did. Now you can do design your own photo card anywhere especially right in your computer. I have one site I can recommend you, the http://www.cardsdirect.com.

I Love My Friends

Being away from home I have to do anything to keep contact with my family and friends. Also I want to make new friends especially the area where I live. I join in different community network like yahoo, friendster and 3GB community. All this 3 community networks are similarly the same. The only different 3GB community is not only that you will meet new friends, find your old friends who already the member, but you can also upload your own photos, you can join in any groups, and blog chat with the other member and then plus you can listen to what’s the MP3 hits. If you are a music lover and want to meet and find if your friends are in this network join 3gb community www.3gb.biz.

Never know what lucks that will come ahead, especially if you are looking for the right one.
