Weak cell signals

I was so upset yesterday coz I have been wanting to contact my father and my sister but to no avail.I kept on dialing their numbers and even texting them but I couldn't get hold of them.They forgot to tell me that they will go to the province.They were in a place that has weak cell signals,if only they have with them a
cellular booster,maybe they can call me or text me back.

They were there to clean the place and also for the copras.Since the piece of land of my mother is not big,they didn't have many dried coconut meat or copras sold but it's ok,at least they have some little money out of it.

They are now at home and brought some fruits and charcoals.How I wish I could go back there again in the province.I love the laidback style of living and I miss going to the river and climbing the fruit bearing trees.

Electronic pickpocketing

Whenever we purchase any products using our debit card especially when we travel,we are very careful in which stores to buy.We prefer to buy where there are many customers.And if we have a doubt,we pay in cash.We have been hearing some electronic pickpocketing incidents.Someone can steal the card's information without even having the card.Some said that they can steal the card's infos when a card holder swiped the card to their swipe card device or have it passed by sensors.

We were once victimized by similar fraud.My husband paid to a site that he thought was safe.He never knew that the site was not legitimate and forgot to look for the "https"( Https means the site is secured and protected).So after few days,we saw an almost 700 euros taken from our bank account.Goodthing that we always checked our accounts online.Someone from other country had use the card of my husband.Thanked God,our card is insured and we were refunded.

Who doesn't want to stay young?

More and more people are taking supplements nowadays especially those who are "not much younger anymore".Some of these people want to stay fit,more energetic,feel young and to look even more younger.I am not even surprised when my father asked me about taking supplements.He was talking to me about HGH supplement and wanted me to read some hgh reviews.

I don't know about HGH.For sure I will be reading some infos about that product.I don't want my father to take any supplements without knowing what really it is.Also it's good to know if the product is safe,good and effective before buying it.

Who doesn't want to stay young right?All of us want to stay young but we really can't hold our age,all of us will be aging.

Good body workout

It's been so long that I haven't chatted my male cousin.Last week I got the chance to talk to him in messenger.We were talking about what's new in his life,some news of my other cousins and also my aunt and uncle.Later on,he asked me what's my view on body building.He wanted to try it coz he wanted to have a firm body and also to have big muscles.I told him that it's great.It's a good body workout.

He told me that he started reading about it on the net and even read a story of a man that is in to it.just like him,the man was so thin before and doesn't have muscles.He wanted to gain weight and have a firm body.Though some people use pro complex gainer,he himself did'nt use any supplements.The man eventually got what he wanted.He is now a muscled man.

My cousin was really inspired by the story of the man and wanted to do the same thing.

Changing time again

Today we thought we woke up early coz our alarm clock showed 9:30 but when we opened our computer,the time was 10:30.We forgot the time changing :).Now we can stay up more late at night but have to wake up more early.

I guess Alex will have a hard time waking up tomorrow so early.Even before we always had a hard time waking him up,much more now that the time is now one hour early than before.So tonight,I will put him to bed so early.

Problem with water pressure

My aunt and her family who lives in the province couldn't have water in their house.Normally there's already a water line but since they live in a higher place,the pressure is not enough for the water to go up.Some of their neighbours already have some commercial pumps and are having water in their houses.They don't have a choice but to buy a pump.It will be very convenient for them to have it.

Here in France,they have what you call a "chateau d'eau" where it helps to provide water pressure to elevated places.We are living on the top of the hill but we don't have any water pressure problem.

Looking for nice bridesmaid dresses

A friend of mine was recently got engaged.Though their wedding will be early next year,she and her fiancé already started planning it.Both of them are very excited.She happened to see my wedding photos and asked me where did I bought my entourage's dresses.I told her that I just rented all the dresses including my wedding gown.She on the otherhand told me that she wanted to buy instead of rent.Of course she wanted that those dresses are not very expensive coz they still have lots of things to buy and pay for.I told her that if she only look aroun to different bridal shops,she may found lots of beautiful yet discount bridesmaid dresses.She told me that if she doesn't see any dresses that pleases her and also fit in their budget,they might end up renting.

I know it's very tiring and hard preparing all the wedding stuffs.They still have amost a year of preparation so I know they will be fine.

Featured kitchen set

Almost everyday we received lot sof brochures,pamphlets and journals from different stores.I was browsing a brochure that featured some sala set,bedroom set,kitchen set and it's accessories.I really like the most their featured kitchen set especially the cabinets and the kitchen faucet they used.All are in contemporary designs.It's nice to look at,not the old styles that we used to see in every home.

If only I could changed all our old furnitures and fixtures without spending much of money,I would really do it.I really prefer the new look of contemporary designs.

My homemade suman

Here are the photos of suman(glutinous rice wrapped in banana leaves).Though I had a hard time in wrapping,it was still ok.The taste was as good as the suman in the Philippines :)I have a bunch of them right now in our freezer.Now I can eat it whenever I crave for it.

Having a good health care coverage

My father is in his late fifties.At this range of age,many people get sick.So I want him to have a Medicare plan.I want him to have a health care coverage.I don't want to happen again the experience we had when my mother was seriously ill.They don't have a health care coverage before so we ended up paying all the hospital bills and it was so expensive.That time I still have work and so was my husband.But now both of us are not working anymore.We couldn't afford the expensive hospital bills and medicines if something happen to my father.That is why I am urging him to have a health care coverage.

I told him to look for a good but affordable health care plan.I told him to help himself by having it and also it will spare us from costing much.

Knee injury

When I was calling to my family,my sister told me some family news.She said that our cousin who is so active and very much into sports got a knee injury.He has a knee sprain.His knees were so painful,swelling and had some bruises.It's hard for him to walk and everytime he moves his knees,he cries because of the pain.I guess,he needs a knee sleeve.It would be a good knee support for him.

I asked my sister if he went to the clinic so that doctor can check and treat it.Though it's not really a serious injury I hope he will be fine soon.

Puffing cigars

Just like what I have said before, my husband like to smoke cigarettes and cigars.He usually smoke with cigarettes and seldom with cigars.But if he find a good and affordable cigars he would like to try it.He saw some nice cigars on the net and base on some reviews,he would like to try Dutch Master cigars.It's been so long I have not seen him puffing even one cigar.I am sure if he have some,he will puff and puff until there's nothing left.

Though I don't like him to smoke coz it's not good for the health but I couldn't stop him.He doesn't listen to me :(

Making some suman (glutinous rice wrapped in banana leaves)

These past few days I have been craving to eat Suman.Suman is made from glutinous rice cooked with coconut milk and wrapped in the banana leaves.Actually it's one of my favorite Filipino delicacies.When I was still in Philippines,we oftenly eat this food every morning with a hot chocolate.It's really yummy!

So today,my craving is over coz I made some.It was my first time making this food at home. I tell you,I had a hard time wrapping the suman coz some banana leaves teared so easily.I made a lot so I will put some of those in the freezer.

Though for me it was not easy but the moment I taste it,I feel I was compensated.It is really good,the taste is just the same as suman in Philippines.
