What about a Home Spa?

My husband and I sat on the garden set in our backyard one lazy weekend afternoon. While sipping coffee, we talk about family matters and things that transpired during the week. As he was looking around, he asked my opinion on how we can maximize the space in our backyard; I suggested that we could install a portable hot tub or a home spa in one corner. We can build an open room to serve as an indoor form of family enjoyment and relaxation. I immediately opened my laptop and look for a swim spa manufacturer to give him an idea of the tub structure, design and the size we need. We do not need to travel far just to get into a spa clinic. Our quiet conversations can be done while soaking in it and at the same time refreshes and relaxes our weary mind and bodies. Our children will definitely enjoy it too. By the way I look at him, he seems to like the idea but yet I still need to convince him more, for having a portable home spa is one of my dreams, wishing it will materialize by th

Tiny speck in the eye: First aid

Bringing children to parks and playgrounds is a good form of exercise to let them stretch their muscles and at the same time have fun running and playing.  Playing outdoors holds many surprises for our young explorers.  Unfortunately, there are times that due to strong winds and dust, a foreign matter gets into our little one’s eyes. When this happens do not panic, instead tend to your kid at once so he will not rub his eyes which may cause a serious eye injury. When going outdoors with your kids, make sure to bring with you their extra clothes, clean towel, water to drink, food and most especially an alcohol or a hand sanitizer. What to do if a foreign matter gets into your kids eye? Wash your hands thoroughly or put on alcohol on your hands before attempting to examine your child’s eye. Tell your kid not to rub his eyes, it is much better if he cries so the irritant will be washed away by tears. Do not touch or blow into the eye to dislodge the irritant, doing so will risk scratch

Yahmir, the Reaper Yahmir with his friends Jino in J5 costume and Charles the Monster  Every classroom is beautifully decorated with lots of halloween decorations and eerie designs of mietwagen .  Some wore creepy costumes too. Candies and cookies fill every pumpkin pail of roaming pupils and students.  The school ground was full of pupils and students in Halloween attire. I also wore a witch’s hat while I took pictures around, thanks to my husband who took my picture after I finished roaming around too ahaha.

Oil price hike, Oh no! Not again!

In the recent oil price increase trending to be weekly, it is not surprising that people will think twice in buying a new vehicle. We need to take into consideration of its primal usage, is it really a need or just a luxury? Oil plays a very important role in running a country’s economy and not only on a family’s budget. Economic recession causes slowdown in economic activity which results to rising unemployment rate, high priced commodities, and bankruptcies.  Using alternative oil sources like bio fuel, made of biological products and bakken oil shale , oil coming from a sedimentary rock unit could help the government in the reduction of oil imports. If we could produce additional oil, it will generally help in the increasing oil demand in the country. Production on our own will mean more people will be employed, more money to improve the nation’s economy.  Having a family vehicle is really very convenient, as we can hold and budget our own time in terms of traveling. We could mak
