Yes! how to get life insurance if you are like me – and have diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol and recently started taking anxiety pills? You see – we have been doing quite well at the store lately – and have been keeping up with all our bills – so we figured it was time to get some life insurance for both the spouse and I. Why? to insure my kid’s future – in case something happens to us – you never know eh. Afterall, yesterday i just read on Facebook how a young blogger died of lung cancer and left 2 young kids to her hubby. At least if something like this happens to me – i know that they would not be strapped for cash – and they would be able to go on and make life a wee bit easier – but of course – i never hope for something like that to happen – but life is so unpredictable – you never know what tomorrow may bring. So for a peace of mind – we had to – so we are currently shopping around for the best rates. Wish us luck eh.
People asked me all the time what to give to the wife on an anniversary and I would tell them to check out anniversary gifts by year because you not only get an idea what to give – you can buy your gift from the same site. The other most common question I get asked is what is your favorite anniversary gift? Mine? I gotta say the above toilet paper – first thing in the morning – when you use the bathroom and the toilet paper is all over the toilet – now tell me that doesn’t make you feel giddy, silly and funny all at once. And this would go well with all the other 2nd anniversary gifts for those celebrating their second anniversary.
Gifts need not be expensive but they must be thoughtful – and you can’t just buy a random gift right? Some men say that women are difficult to please – but to me – it’s understanding your woman and what she needs. If you are both saving for a holiday or to buy a house – you definitely shouldn’t splurge on a diamond ring right? A meaningful gift – a price of a stalk of rose – would suffice (for me anyways). And for a spouse who needs nothing – a funny t-shirt or even a teddy bear would be nice – plus if it is shipped to the office where she works – that would be so sweet – what do you think? I hope my suggestion/s helped – but you can always let me know – if you have a better gift to give to the special someone.
Branded goods are not cheap and a good friend had shown me what she did for her old branded handbags and shoes back home. It’s amazing that they have a shop that professionally clean your branded goods – from shoes to handbags and even clothes and if a color of your shoes and handbags are getting too old to clean – you can opt to dye it. I used to just throw my old stuff out – now I don’t have to anymore – i’ll just bring them home with me to Asia – the next time I’m home. Pretty awesome right?
Have you shopped with your spouse lately? if you have – I’ve sure unless your man is extra special – they are all the same when it comes to shopping. So after years of being together – I’ve finally come to this conclusion – that there is an easier way to shop with the man. One thing you have to know is that the men – are not interested in giving you an opinion on your dress nor shoes or your handbags. When it comes to grocery shopping – they don’t really care what you buy as long as there is food on the table or the fridge when they are hungry. Now, now! don’t tell me you don’t agree with me – if you are protesting right now – then you must be crazy ! hahhaha!
The difference between us women and men – they love their tools, their games or even cad drawing – big screen tvs and computers – other than that – you can forget about it. And i have a simple solution for all the women out there – when you go shopping with your spouse – you let him go get his stuff and you go get yours – then you get your things done and be happy and he won’t be bored to death. And you all can meet back in front of the mall or the car – and make sure you don’t leave the kids with the spouse – because if you do – when you meet up – he would be so grouchy – you don’t know if you should be mad with him – or feel bad for him.
I’m a firm believer of DIY beauty care – after all – once a month facial – doesn’t do it right? I don’t normally get the expensive stuff – but if I find them on sale – I would definitely buy some. I’m not crazy about stocking up mask – because they probably are old and going to expire. So some friends asked why I have these DIY Mask. Well, as we all know – the weather – the air and all the dirt that is accumulated and the moisture lost – when we are doing our daily stuff – it’s nice to sit back at night after a shower and put on your DIY mask and replenish the moisture and take out any impurities on our skin. And if you don’t take care of your own skin – who is right? So what kind of regimen do you have at home – that helps you looking young and beautiful?
Every beautiful woman wants a dream bathroom – with awesome looking faucets and lots of space and mirrors but a jacuzzi bathtub would be a plus – if not a bath tub deep enough to immerse your entire body without having to slip yourself deeper than you need to go get entirely soak. My dream bathroom is only for myself – but if I can’t have it for myself – then I would need two sinks – two toilet bowls and a standing shower – not the ones in your bath-tub. My dream bathroom needs to have flattering lightning and definitely a place to do my nails – i must have good soft music. This bathroom – is at a hotel in Asia – and it’s not an ordinary hotel – and as you can see – they used the best furnishing and decor. My home bathroom is smaller – but the next house I buy – I’m going to have my own bathroom in my own bedroom. What about you ?
So you are home with your kids but you don’t feel like wearing your jeans – since you are just going to do some housework and hang out with the kids and the spouse. Do you stay in your PJs? most people do – now that’s a huge mistake no? i mean really? do you wanna see your spouse walking around in his boxers all day? Think about it? My solution? a tee jamas – as soon as I saw one some 16 years ago – at Marks & Spencer – i never turned back – what better way to lounge around the house in your tee-jamas. You don’t really need to spend a lot – just a fashionable tee – that you can wear around the house – but not for sleeping eh – and a decent jammie pants – i think it is sexy enough – what do you think? This one is from Victoria’s Secret though – but you get the idea right.
Victoria’s Secret is not all about sexy lingerie – as you can see – I was looking for a sports bra – because i have been doing step aerobics of late and going to branch out to do it with a group of ladies – at the Y. So one cannot wear just your ordinary bra for exercises right? your chest/breast needs the support if you are exercising if you didn’t know by now. This bra has an underwire to support your breast while you exercise and is super sexy as you can see. Virtually seamless under your clothes – so it said. Comes in different colors and at $45 each – I ordered one online.
Preparing for a vacation takes planning – a few weeks in advance. You not only have to pack for yourself but for the entire family especially the kids! the kids stuff takes up so much space – one can easily forget to pack your own stuff – like your shampoo or toner you may need for the next few days. We look at several different holiday packages like Branson vacation package , Disney World and Sea World – all takes at least a good 5 days – so I have to pack for a 5 days worth for everyone.
Where do one begin? and surely you wanna look your best during your vacation – so that your vacation pictures can be shown around proudly to your family and friends right? So moms – how do one pack all your daily regimen into a suitcase? Are you going on a plane ? or with a car? Normally, or for the longest time – i pack the kids stuff first – but this trip – i’m packing first my stuff – and then kids – the spouse – you let him pack his own. Plan ahead – mix and match your clothing – but never forget all your perfumes – lotions and sunscreen – because those are the things you really need. I’m packing up soon – and will let you all know how i make out.
For those who are not aware of this – I take a lot of pills a day because of my health issues. It would have been nice to have a pill box like this to bring a long when I travel – @ $26 – - you can go wrong. They have nice colors too. Made of leather – pretty stylish I’ll have to say. Got another one for the kids – for their vitamins. Now that we will have a pill box – our pills don’t have to go missing when traveling nor do they have to share space with our toiletries.
