Sales Galore.

Since it’s the 4th of July, I am receiving tons of email alerts from my favorite online shopping sites. I am so tempted to buy every single thing I want but of course, I have to prioritize my purchases as my budget won’t allow me to shop so much. As early as now, I plan to get my Christmas gifts, for DS especially, since it will need a little more time to be shipped here. I am looking at some toys, books, PS3 players and some clothes.

What Room of the House Are You?

You Are the Living Room

You are laid back and casual. You can have fun in almost any situation.
You believe in being easy going. Life’s hard enough, and you’re not going to make it any harder.

You are sociable and friendly. You welcome almost anyone into your life.
You are completely unpretentious. You prefer living in a comfortable home to living in a showy home.

What Room of the House Are You?

A Small TV.

I want to get a small TV for the kitchen. However, most of the mini TV’s in the mall right now are the lesser-known brands. We prefer a TV with a better brand. The TV’s in the house have different brands and we could clearly see which one is performing better. So we said that the next time we get a new TV we would get the better, even if it is the more pricey one. I came across Liquidation.com and I saw lots of wholesale electronics. The prices are unbelievably low, it makes me want to get an LCD TV even though we have no need for it. This is heaven for DH, I just know.

How About Pink.

Do you see the pink wall? I love it. It makes me want to paint our wall outside pink. And maybe add a plant box, too. But I think our plant box will be a bit long and will need more plants which can be expensive. Add to that the fact that neither of us has green thumb. We can’t grow plants in the house. Most of the plants I purchased before are all gone now.

What Do You Know?

Just when I had made up my mind on what to buy, one of my items was now out of stock. What do I do now? Do I wait for the item to go in stock before buying my stuff or do I just buy the rest of the items first? Anyway, I’ll have a look on this article about Mesothelioma treatment, as a favor for a cousin who is doing a research about it, then I’ll go over my shopping cart again.

Patch Pillow.

I find these patch pillows cute. I want to try making these. I just hope I find fabrics with prints as pretty as these. And yes, I hope I find the time to do that.

So Much To Do.

I am wanting to declutter again. This is a continuous process for me. I deal with it one at a time. I do it when I have time and when I feel like it. Our extra room has been a work in progress for a long time now. I just can’t seem to get rid of all the clutter in there. However, I am not feeling so well today so I guess that has to wait. I’ll try to finish my online to-do’s, like the search for a car insurance that’s just taking me forever, then proceed with the cleaning when I am feeling better.

10 Tips For A Happier Life.

admin — Wed, 01 Jul 2009 00:53:34 +0000

1. Don’t worry
Worry is the least productive of all human activities and thoughts….

2. Don’t let needless fears preoccupy your life…
Most of things we fear never happen!!!

3. Don’t hold grudges…
That is one of the biggest and most unnecessary weights we carry through our lives..

4. Take on one problem at a time
It’s the only way to handle things anyway..one by one..

5. Don’t take your problems to bed with you.
They are bad and unhealthy companions for good natural sleep and rest…

6. Don’t take on the problems of other people..
They are better equipped to handle their own problems than you are..

7. Don’t live in the past.
It will always be there in your memories to enjoy..but don’t cling to it. Concentrate on what is happening right now in your life..and you will be happy in the present also..not just the past.

8. Be a good listener.
It is only when one listens..that one gets and learns ideas different from ones own…

9. Do not let frustration ruin and rule your life…
Self pity more than anything..interferes with positive actions..with moving forwards in our lives.

10. Count your blessings…
Don’t even forget the smallest blessings.. As many small blessings add up to large ones…

Inhale Exhale.

I have been planning to try yoga. DH as always is supportive with the idea and even agreed to bring me there after he brings DS to school. He even suggested that we try colon cleansing as it indeed can help detox and cleanse our system. Anyway, I have also been seeing a lot of features about yoga on TV for days now and I feel that something’s telling me to give it a try. I am slowly getting convinced to do it. However, I had a mild asthma attack just this morning, so I guess I have to give my body a rest for few days first.
