Popping-In To Say Hi and Hello!

Oops! How is everyone here? How are yah there? Just saying "Hello" to all of you and yep, spending some aloha!

I was battling with my connection which whenever I want to something in here, my connection acted up! I cannot comprehend the real reason/s but on my hullabaloo, it is because of poor DNS server or just the server alone, sometimes internet connect is not on its fix state. Sometimes too, my computer is because of hotness pressure. Ooh well.. that is what its life is?! It has its own pre and post-menstrual syndrome.. haha! You gotta be kidding me but I can feel and vividly knew that I was not the only one. So, appear to disappear such electronic trouble! Ha! :)

And also I had days of trouble with my body temperature. I often felt so hot (not hot body but more than warm) but I was not having cold. I even had bump resulted on it until now but its slowly cooling down, it is now smaller. Geeezz.. you know the feeling of being a bit sick huh! I am glad that excedrin/aspirin, etc and rest has been my close friend. ;-) DH is of course comforting me. And thanks God am still alive and kicking! :)

So, what about you there? Have you been fared well? I hope you all the best! Be strong always huh? ~hugs&kisses~

Sleeping Problem and Solution

There are many reasons why we have a problem of sleeping. One of the reason is insomnia but again, there are many reasons and you can tell by the help of your doctor why. With that, you are always "on-the-look" of some ways and means how to overcome it. And yes, there are many ways, it could be through foods you have to it, movement that you have to work out or work on or sleep aids or what we commonly called "sleeping pills". Which is which? Well, whatever suits your health and your body, go for it! I remember the time I cannot sleep before because of insomnia. Though I already drink milk and watch any movie and heard slow songs to make me sleepy yet, I still cannot. Then I began to think of sleeping pills plus a close friend of mine use it, so I was convinced. Before this month end, I guess I need this stuff after our vacation from my homeland for the body clock adjustment of time sleep. It is 16 hours gap, so when it is day time, there is night time --- imagine that shock of your body clock.

Pretty Ceramic Vases

Some of you knew that my new hobby is bidding of items in listia which I find valuable and great ones. I find it a cool way of letting my time passed with sense aside from my fix hobby which is sharing what I have in mind (randomly), blogging. For now (about a month in such site), I have now seventy-five items won and about or more than ten thousand XP. Well, I cannot describe fully what is XP but you can have its definition if you go or become a member of such site. A little description is that it's a status of signing-in and browsing or if you buy credits, you can have more XP should you like to buy credits but that is not necessary. It is all free, you give in your still good items and in return you can have them if you have enough credits and if you like something, you can buy credits impromptu. If you will be outbidded, you can have your credits back or your money back as long as it is not used yet. Ooh well so much about it, one of the cool items I got are two pretty pink or a dash of pink vases and one candy holder (as I call it, am not sure what is its name ;-). Together with it (one auction owner), I got a vintage frame of very good condition looks new just as the vases and such. I paid shipping of five bucks altogether yet the cost of all is five dollars and ninety-nine cents plus ten dollars and ninety-nine cents equals to sixteen dollars and ninety-eight cents, whatta cool, right? And not only that it's just of small credits of five and something for two. Whooaah! I love it so much as it comes in great condition!

Isn't it cute? ;-)

And it goes along in my rectangle living room center table. ;-) I just love it so much! Diary, keep it in memory... :)

My Ruby Tuesday #13: Red Flowers and Beyond

When I think of Tuesday, what comes on my mind next is ruby... ahh Ruby Tuesday! Time for ruby hunting folks.. how was that? ;-) When it comes to flowers, red can't be beaten.. it's just so beautiful when there is red! Though I do not know the name of the spring flowers below, still I took a phone shot because it is so lovely. I was doing my brisk walking at our neighborhood at the same time went on to shopping centers just looking for something, oops! I was just having a window shopping and chasing reds with these flowers, okay? ;-)

This was a left side garden of a pathway of one of apartment complex in the block. Yeah, reds. ;-) Do you know what is its name?

Yep, a mini-tree of mini-roses in our rented apartment complex ground. It was planted by the way in a fountain aquarium which eventually the landlord turned it into a garden as in instead of placing water and fish on it, they place soil and plants.. whatta garden! ;-) This was by the way taken last year's Christmas time (2009) which unfortunately the roses are beginning to fell down already. Ooh well, it is still red! Ha ha ha! ;-) Those were so pretty before it turned like that because all flowers were in full bloom and attached with each other, seems like a bouquet.. ooh well... :)

And another red pa-cute entry above which apparently inside the red roses. I was doing my thing in my cellphone when suddenly I bumped into artsy stuffs feature and I did an above image. Isn't that cute moi in a hearty-heart red flowers? LOL.. just having fun folks.. So then, have a great Ruby Tuesday! Have fun hunting rubies.. ;-)

Wristech Blood Pressure Monitor

How do you like to try "hi-tech" stuff to monitor your health? Are you in favor of just use the classic one? You are one of those old school folks which just uses an old school or classic stuffs?

Mind you my husband admit and told me that he is one of those old school folks. Well, it is not necessary that point to old people, there are also young folks who just prefer to use classic and traditional stuffs. Yep, classic stuffs doesn't only apply to old folks just a name and again, young folks too uses it.

One year plus ago, DH has this wristech blood pressure monitor and am the one who get his blood pressure in the house. Yes, it is a high-tech one and he loves it. It is pretty great because it just uses two triple A batteries (2 AAA) and when you study diligently how to use then you are good to go, and that is what I did. Sometimes just get his diastolic and systolic pressures as well as pulse for heart beat. Then it is your choice if you want to put in its memory or just put the result in a paper. It get accurate results just like a traditional one. It is pretty easy and comfy when I get used to it.

A Household Need a Box Cutter

I doubt if you believe? But as to myself, I do believe that our (DH and I) need it. It is not that we always receive and ship boxes but when it calls its time like to open a box or just simply we will ship a box that I (or we) can do it manually by simply cutting our stashed box in our house, then that way box cutter is needed, don't you? Well, I guess it is not that "a-must" but simply it is great to have it so I (or we) would not have to use a knife or something like that to cut a box. Yeah, my household does need a box cutter but unfortunately, we do not have it right now. I hope somebody could give as a gift. Aww.. heheheh.. just kidding aside but seriously. ;-) :D. But who wouldn't want to have it, anyway, if it is a gift, right? Okay, enough for like a daydreaming but am serious I would to get it as I have enough money or let my DH buy for one. I (or DH&I) really need it.

My Ruby Tuesday #11: RED Flowers

Yes, it's ruby day today as in "Ruby Tuesday" indeed besides that this day is the beginning day of my monthly visitor... weee.. and am here still wide awake for my ruby entry. *winkz* That is how I am anxious of having my Ruby Tuesday from being away for how many weeks of not playing. :-) I was busy with listia and all those stuffs.. lol.. For now, these are the RED flowers I took just days after spring has sprung.

An above flower seems like a version of small poinsettia which I saw in the corner of one of the neighborhood blocks where I live. Those are very lovely ones with its big leaves (I guess this is really poinsettia but am not so sure) and red on the near red buds at the top of such flowers to which am expecting you just looking at it. Well, even without looking it nearly, you can tell, right? :-)

This other group of red flowers in the corner of the street is lovely too! Those are cutie reds.. I do not know its name but really, is pretty lovely.

And this lovely roses is what I got from my DH more than two weeks ago. By the way, this is my first fresh flower from him. LOL. On the record... weeee.. Not be conceited, but really those are pretty reds too!

I hope you have fun in chasing my reds.. :-) Do you have reds there too? Come on, show your reds.. *winkz* Have fun red hunting folks.. Enjoy....

An Acne-Treatment (Pronexin) Reviews

Nope, it is not a review from mine. I was busy lately (as always) and I do not have time for a quest of reviews as well. Though I have a close family circle who is in need of a certain acne treatment but I just cannot give-in. Truly, I feel for her and I pity of such of what she have. Until I was stumbled into pronexin reviews, yeah it is not intentionally, in short it is just a coincidence. Could this be good for her? How would I know? Hemmm.. I was such a bit of sleepy this time. Will see more of what is this reviews all about. Others (who used this product) review about this product is informational as well as my review if ever am the one who experienced of using it. Is pronexin good? Anyway, I hope this will be a good one for her already so in no time I can talk to her without having a guilt feeling. I am guilty of being busy that is why I have no time for a quest of an acne treatment for her. :-( Could this be? Help me God. :-) I do not want to disappoint her, more on I do not want to be blamed if such product will not work. :( I just hope we will be guided through with our knowledge and such.

Looking for an Hgh Supplement

Ever since I did think or mind of an HGH supplement. I often wonder what are those folks secret idea of becoming a younger-looking one aside from living a happy life. I know that when a person reach at the exact date of stopping its hormones, definitely there could have some trouble of its bod that is because of such. With that, scientists or professional folks who are expert of this stuffs, have come into an hgh supplement to get back the hormones that has been into stoppage. Hormone normally become slow at an old age of a person that is why there are some areas that are given into consideration to which as I said, are looking up into an hgh product. Well, I can't blame them because that is already the nature and I also admire to those individuals who are doing great with the help of the supplements and stuffs like that to what their bod wants. So then, keep going.. :-)

My Mellow Yellow Monday 8: Yellow Flowers

As I was walking down the road days ago, I saw these beautiful yellow flowers blooming around the corners just in every direction as I was in and I cannot help to take my phone and took a couple of pictures of them. This is also one of the reasons why I love walking aside from the season is spring. Did I tell you that spring is the best season for me? Yes, among the four seasons US of A has, spring is the best for me. It is because of the beautiful blooming flowers! Take a look of these yellow ones I took.

Wishing a Patio and its Furniture

When I think of a house, I am thinking a yard --- a back and a front yard. I am wishing to have it when we have our own house one day (hopefully very soon). :) That also includes garden and a patio. Not that big one but just enough for me and my DH, for our child (hopefully one) and our visitor/s. :) It is just that it beautifies the house aside from it adds coolness to surroundings. Having a patio is beautiful to stand-by when there is a patio furniture that you can count on. I mean the one that is sturdy and just uniquely it is to where it is place. Such a heaven for me when it is surrounded with a garden of flowers and few fruit trees. :-) Few trees around with a patio in our home during spring and summer is an excellent house atmosphere, don't you think? :)

An Easter Egg Tree

Who said that only Christmas has only an occasion "Christmas tree" ? Hahahah.. ooh well, it is my own thought... :) Yeah, definitely we could have an "Easter Eggs tree"... Weee.. What do you think of an image below?

my Easter eggs tree

Yeah, I find this eggs tree cool to which I found at the last minute of Valentines Day at target. I was looking for cute stuffs for valentines when I found this at the other corner with some of Easter goodies and other decorations. It even has an Easter wreath (small size and large) besides where this stuff located. I got so amazed on how it was made. I like it so much but my budget is not enough that time so I just settled to chase of it, fortunately the next day I went out to the store again because some of the clothes I had, didn't fit in (DH did not like how it fits on me) so I have to go back to change for my size and such. And hooray! I got it the second time around.. lol.. I guess you will also love it the first you saw. :) It's just really cute.. heheh.. aww.. not to be conceited but I really appreciate how it was made. It is a bit pricey because of its size (small but terrible.. lol) but it's worth it.

Have a great day folks! Did you had an eggstra special Easter? :) ~hugs&kisses~

I Gained Seven Pounds!

:-( ... Whatta weight result I got about two weeks ago when I went to my doctor for some check-up on my reddish round stuff on my right cheek. It was some kind of a bitten area from an insect or some, I do not know really. I was being given an ointment for it by my doctor. But before that, of course everyone are examined about our statistics or health status, some minor tests like weight, height temperature, blood pressure and things like that were being taken. After taken, I asked the assistant how much I weigh (aside from the result of my weighing scale at home) for sure, and yeah it was exactly as my weight in my weighing scale at home --- 115 pounds! Ooh my... I used to have 108 only maximum but now it is seven pounds plus of it. :-( Nevertheless, am overweight but am not obese. With this, am thinking of folks who are into weight loss products, of how they have an urge to have it and now I know... Ooh well, you can never take a chance when it comes to your health and wellness because you already know the consequences. It is really great to have a great body without any diseases caused from obesity. I expect, everyone do not like to have fat bod that makes one think of how to have resources in order to attain such a great strong body both inside and out. Be safe and healthy as always!

ABC Wednesday - J is for JEANS

J is for...

JEANS

Yay.. JEANS! Yeah, jeans, I love jeans --- I love wearing it! Be it as skinny, boot cut, straight leg or other kind as long as it coincides to the situation, occasion or an event. :-) Usually I do wear it casually as an outfit. It does not have to be fit or loose but have to be sturdy and uniquely cool. :-) It has to match with the shoes and other accessories to wear or else you will be walking like a Christmas tree. Hehehe. Just kidding, or I mean, I mean it. Weeee. :) Whatever it is just do not go outside with full or a lot of different colors of accessories to which it won't coincides one another, like having bunch colors of shirt and other color of shoes, okay? I hope you won't misunderstood me, I am just having an unsolicited friendly advice. :-) . But I know you are old enough to choose what you wear so go what makes you happy, okay? Go, go, go! :)

Alright, it is ABC Wednesday once again though am a bit late but since it is still Wednesday, am encourage to still play for it. So have a great Wednesday! ~hugs&kisses~

I is for INBORN (baby)

I is for...

INBORN

Oops.. I have to tell you first that the image below of an inborn baby may you find it gross. I would like to warn you first to brace yourself if you don't like to see some inborn child look like from her mother's womb. For me, it is not that gross but a success. Well anyway, did I already calm you down? If so, this is it:

Inborn baby

That is fresh from my "bessy" A's womb on November 28 (its also their fourth wedding anniversary date) last year. I am proud of my bessy as I knew that she already delivered her baby though she was in CS but that didn't matter, the thing is the baby and her safe and sound. And now the baby is three and a half months old. She was the baby that was baptized last Sunday to whom I attended to. She is a very cute and pretty, black haired baby girl named "Celyn". She will call me "Tita"... :-) I am happy for that name as "Tita Becca or Tita Cacai". :-) One thing also I love this baby's attitude is that she is not a "crying baby", she just sleep and do her thing unless she is hungry or sleepy and that is it, isn't she adorable? :-) By the way, I also have her some pics on her baptism, below (you can click the images to enlarge should you like to do so):

A Red Kitchen Towel that Turned into My Printer Cover

red kitchen towel that turned into my printer cover

Nyahaha.. ooh yeah, probably you laugh at me or no words come out at your cute lippy. Hehehe.. I could not blame you because it is obviously does. :-) But mind you, I so love this red kitchen towel for my 6-in-1 printer that I do not want to just remove it to replace for another one. I mean, I know that it should have to wash from time to time, hello...?... heheh.. but I do not let it remove from its new purpose. :-) I just love this one because it suits to the area which I want the printer machine to be covered. It is the right size and color I want though I love it when there is no little white stripes in it. But that is just a slight problem aside from it is a kitchen stuff. :-) I do not want to spoil my eye happiness so I leave it alone by itself. :-) What do you think? You can laugh at it if you like but that does not mean that I put it then aside.. (LOL).. you are free to give your real opinion and I understand that. I am convince that you have the right and it is my pleasure to let you express your idea. What do you think? :-)

Letters That I'll Never Send #1: Dear Favorite HS Teacher

Dear Maam Diez,

Thank you for being a great HS science teacher to me. I was there on that school for my freshman and sophomore years. I was having a great time there and to tell you I missed that school the time I transferred to Columbia Saint Michael's Parish High School. I am aloof and you encouraged me to talk in front of the crowd through helping me in oral discussion. I cannot forget about the discussion that you let me give a recap about how the volcano erupt in land and in ocean though some of the terms I forgot already but the thought and explanation I cannot. With it, I am trying hard not be shy and able to talk without any fear as long as it is good to discuss about. Thank you for the support though you do not know that you help me through it, I know it is your job but I am just trying to be grateful because you did a great one. Thank you for that. You are cool and now you are the assistant principal of Tupsan National High School and you just deserve it. You have a lot to ponder on and I believe your abilities. I always pray that God always shower you great health and mind so you can spread your words of wisdom specially on science matters. May your students are obedient because it is for their own good. I wanted to tell you this to appreciate you personally one day when we meet again. For now, this is just words that I'll just never send since it is great to tell you in person. You are awesome and a role model to both teachers, parents, students and a person as a whole. I wish you all the best of everything. Keep going because God loves you for that...

Your S&H 1994 -'95 student,
Rebecca R*n**a

My Ruby Tuesday #9 - Red Candle and Red Comb

a red candle


my other comb (red)

The small red candle above is still here on my upper divider computer station table right now and will always be. Yes, I said always be because I will just it for decoration and not for lighting purposes. I just like there are something red in front of my eyes whenever I am in my table. And you might shock what is beside with the candle, not the comb but a seventy-five percent (75%) content of a bottle of wine. Nope, neither me is a drinker nor my husband. I was on my curious mode before {that was about two years ago now} that I wanted to taste the wine I saw at the store and I even bought a cork to go with it {I just use it once only up to this time}. If you happen to see it in one of the photographs I put up in here, you now know why is that there and the story behind it. :-)

Another the one is red comb, my third comb in the house. I put it in my white divider box together with some of my artsy girly stuffs.. :-) I use it whenever I feel like combing my hair when am in front of my PC, the other two are in the bathroom and bedroom. Okay, so much about the combs, it is the red comb that matters and the red candle which is perfect for "Ruby Tuesday" entry. (~_~)


Have a great Tuesday folks... Enjoy hunting rubies for this Tuesday... :-) How was it?

My Ruby Tuesday #8 - Red Table Placemats and An In-Sink Brush

Hello folks, how have you been doing? I know I was like was lost for few days for some reasons aside from anti-virus spy-sweeper is having a problem with Microsoft to which my PC is at its under. Ahhh.. that is just some of the few of the reason, anyhow.. am back and I hope you welcome from Friday.. :-) So, here we are.. Welcome to Ruby Tuesday entry folks! Now, that it is Tuesday here in my place and I have some rubies I captured, it is just perfect for Ruby Tuesday meme. And there it is:

my red set of table place-mats and its deep red table cloth

a round red in-sink brush.
I do not know what is this brush for, but since it is round and our (DH and I) bathroom in-sink is round so I let this brush just intended for our in-sink bathroom purposes.

So how was your ruby day folks? I hope you have fun hunting color rubies this ruby day... Do you like color red? What about ruby? And how do you like it? As for me, I do like ruby red a lot because it is not that flashy or attract others attention towards the people wearing or using it. I just like flashy red as the situation wants but for casual time, I just like it a normal one possibly like ruby. That is all folks, have a great ruby day (though I just had my middle finger showed its bloody ruby because I accidentally cut it instead of the plastic microwaveable ready-to-eat beef package. Sigh.. that hurts! I washed it with water first then alcohol then put an antibiotic cuts and burns ointment and put a bondage.. A lot of bloody rubies showed.. Aargh.. Am glad I am now good of using all of my fingers in typing {attended a hands-on class with it}, if not then I have a hard time of typing this)... ~hugs~
