the love month

January 17th, 2010

Next month is the love month.  After Christmas and the New Year, Valentine comes next.  So we’ll be expecting a lot of marriage proposals happening next month.  Oh to be young and in love.  I never had a man propose marriage to me on bended knee or something.  Mine happened so fast that next thing I knew, I was already at the altar.  Anyway, I would have wanted my former husband propose to me in a unique way.  He could have taken me to a cruise and have a chorale or band sing to me while he asks for my hand.  But it’s too late now.  So for all the guys out there, be creative.  Women like to be treated like we are royalty.  If you’re planning to propose anytime soon, I suggest you think of ways to do it differently.  Bring her to the beach and have someone build a castle.  Put the ring inside the castle and let her find it.  Tell her there’s a surprise inside.  Or bring her to a cemetery and tell her that only death will set you apart then propose.  There are many ways.  I’m sure you can think of one.  The latter may seem eerie but at least it’s unique.

bidazzled

December 27th, 2009

This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of Bidazzled. All opinions are 100% mine.

I have never really given anything major in any charity work. I mean that in terms of giving money to charity because I don’t have enough to share in the first place. But what I lack in money, I compensate it with charity works through volunteering and giving away old stuff that we don’t need anymore but might be of use to others. That’s why when I heard of Bidazzled, I was glad as this is another avenue for me to extend help to worthy causes.

Bidazzled is a simple auction site that works just like eBay. The site has almost all the name brand products. There can bid on various items and at the same time you save a truck load of money you are still funding a charity.Yes, the only difference is the money the auction site earns is given out to a charity called The Jimmy Ruch Fund that promotes awareness, treatment alternatives and resources for Small Cell Lung Cancer. Getting started is very easy and fast. With a few simple steps, you can start bidding and helping out a charity at the same time.

So, if you ever want to try auctions, try Bidazzled and help fund the Jimmy Ruch Foundation. It feels good to help while doing what you love doing….shopping.

mom turning 60

November 22nd, 2009

My mom is turning 60 this December.  My sister and I are planning to produce a short movie or feature that would have all her siblings, relatives and her loved ones give short meaningful messages.  It’s a tough task especially for me who is in charge of going from one relative to the next to record their messages.  I haven’t started yet.  I have to call and inform each one about the plan and I’m not even sure if everyone would be agreeable.  There are even relatives in the province that I have to visit for this.  If only they know how to use the technology of the internet and post their messages in social networking sites so it would be easier for me.  But unfortunately, they are as low-tech as they come.  Aside from that, I have to find the perfect gift for her 60th birthday.  I t should be something special and should be something that she likes.  The last time I spoke to my mom, she wanted this branded esq watch. It’s a bit expensive but I know that would make her happy. We want this event to be truly memorable for her.  So I guess she’d be getting that watch and a ton of best wishes on her 60th year here on Earth.

home and family security

November 16th, 2009

A friend purchased a new wireless camera after watching on television how a nanny spank and almost beat a child she was looking after.  She got paranoid.  She works full time and she’s away from home almost the whole day.  So she leaves her one-year-old daughter to a nanny.  Although the nanny has been with them for four months now, she still wants to make sure.  So she had a hidden camera installed.  So before she hits the bed at night, she reviews the “tape.”  While others are more inclined to purchase or use home security systems to keep the home safe and secure at all times, families with children should have additional security especially if you have a nanny or other person who looks after your kids.  That way, you would know for sure if the person you hired won’t hurt and even lay a hand on the most important people in your life.  And it’s not only about anticipating if something like that would happen, it’s also insurance that the nanny is doing her job well.  It’s also protection from theft.  A wireless camera is required in a room where your valuables such as jewelry, land titles and other similar items are contained.  You would be able to see who gets in and out of that room.  There are really many advantages in installing a hidden wireless camera.  It also works well in the office.  If you have a small store or shop, it helps drive away shoplifters.   We should do everything to protect our family and valuables and a wireless camera is an inexpensive way to do that.   If you need to install one in your own home, I suggest you visit Security-Cameras-CCTV.com.  They have everything you need when it comes to wireless security cameras.

home security

November 9th, 2009

Our homes should always be safe and secure.  The home is where our family lives.  We should do everything to make the people who live in it free from harm or danger. The world is no longer a safe place.  Home Security Systems should be enforced in each home.  It is really a must in any home nowadays. You can never be too careful especially in this day and age when most people are affected by the global economic downturn, it cannot be helped that some people would go to extreme measures and get desperate to alleviate their own hardships. Some people may resort to robbery or theft, so it’s really a must for any home to have a reliable security system. ADT Home Security System is an example of a reliable home alarm system. Home Security is a must in every home, it not only protects your valuables but it will also protect our family who is the most valuable of all valuables. I am thinking about upgrading my present security to ADT.  ADT has Home Security Monitoring so it’s available in almost all states.  I don’t know if it’s expensive but if we’re talking about the safety of our family, I guess price should not matter.

mississippi

September 23rd, 2009

When you talk about Mississippi, you can’t help but mention or talk about their music.  This is the birthplace of the blues and music legends like BB King and Elvis Presley.  And when I visit this place someday,  I won’t miss the chance to each and every key site in the Mississippi Blues Trail.  Right now, I’m learning more and more about this state through some mississippi chat lines.

vermont

September 19th, 2009

I heard that Vermont city is one of the most beautiful cities in the US.  You can generally do any activity here from hiking, biking, fishing, or paddling and even golf.  It probably has something to do with its lush nature setting.  The people there are lucky.  They live in a refreshing and unspoiled countryside.  Anyway, I wish to join a vermont chat room if only to know more about their beautiful city.

sunny florida

September 16th, 2009

I’ve always wanted to visit sunny Florida especially after I learned that Enrique Iglesias, just one of my all-time crushes, resides there.  But where exactly in Florida?  Only God knows and his parents, of course, and the other million people.  Anyway, I plan to join some florida chat lines and see how people live there. Is it the same here since we probably have the same weather? Always sunny in Florida. I thought that was California.

competent trial lawyers

September 11th, 2009

I’ve never been in a major accident.  I’ve never had any injury that involves more than a few scratches or a few bumps and blows.  And I thank God for it.  I always pray that my family is always safe and free from harm so I guess prayer works.  But if misfortune or a personal injury comes our way, I hope to God that the case be handled by one of the best Pennsylvania personal injury lawyers. And one such law firm is Feldman Shepherd.  Just looking at the personal injury cases they’ve handled and won in the past makes me a little more secure.  That I know I would be in good hands just in case I encounter something bad.  They have a team of trial lawyers that are the best in their fields.  I think they have the best legal team in the whole of Pennsylvania.  Aside from personal injury, they also handle cases like auto accidents, class actions law suits, professional negligence among others.  I guess if something should happen it’s better to get the best.  So if ever you’re caught in a bind, don’t think about who’ll handle your case.  It’s a good thing there are law firms like Feldman Shepherd around.

diamond rings

July 15th, 2009

I know that it takes great skill, creativity and craftsmanship in creating or making jewelry pieces.  Having worked at a jewelry shop for two years, designing, creating and polishing one ring would normally take weeks.  And it is no joke.  Imagine handling one small ring or pendant with a skilled worker’s hands, it’s not easy.  That’s why they’re a bit expensive at times.  Of course, the value of a jewelry also depends on the materials used.  For instance, Diamond Rings (depending on the cut and carat of the diamond) would cost so much more than a simple gold ring.  And I’m quite sure that most diamond jewelry are hand-crafted because of the value of those diamonds.  You can’t let a machine handle that type of gemstone.  Anyway, I’m also sure that anyone who receives a diamond ring would be ecstatic not just by the sheer beauty and sparkle of the stone but also the thought or meaning it signifies.  When a man gives a woman diamond jewelry, it only means that you are special.  That you are important.  That you are valued.  Especially if it’s Tacori.  Because every diamond ring from Tacori is handcrafted not by just an ordinary worker but by an expert artisan who only wants to create the best.
