Grandfather Clocks

Have you ever owned a grandfather clock? Or do you want to own one? Ever since childhood, I have been fascinated by grandfather clocks. I never owned one but I remembered so vividly that there was one at our neighbor's house. They bought it from Japan. It was situated at the living room. Whenever I was in their home, I would stare at it for hours and just admire the intricateness of the design and love to listen to the clicking and chiming. There was some kind of mysteriousness, elegance and stability that it exuded which attracted me to it. If I have one, I would place it in the living room too so other people can admire it.

If you want to own one, you can visit www.1-800-4clocks.com and choose at their wide selection of different brands of granfather clocks like the Howard Miller brand. If you want to know more and get some ideas on what these clocks are, there is a blog just for this purpose. I like the article that I have read in that blog which is titled One Grandfather Clock, One Purchase. Buying one is like an investment. There are things to consider to get just the right one for your home.

The Priest's Sermon

I went to attend Mass today and I was very much moved by the Priest's sermon. He said, " We are scared of the water especially when we don't know how to swim. When somebody is out to help or rescue us, trust and listen." We know that God will always be there for us. He knows whatever fear we have on things we don't know about and on uncertainty. I have felt that and I know that deep in my heart, I am fearful of what the future will hold for me. I should never doubt. God is there to provide and to protect. He has always been there for me. He knows my every thought and feelings. I should trust and listen.

Inside Cardiac Arrest

It's scary to know that sudden cardiac arrest kills 25,000 people every year or almost 900 per day? And since it occurs without warning for different reasons, we don't know until we have ourselves checked. St Jude Medical is presenting www.insidecardiacarrest.com where we can find information and videos for sudden cardiac arrest awareness. How would you know if you are at risk? Please visit the site and know more.

Go Forth...

Right now, I feel the need to encourage myself. Sometimes, when I feel this way, I open up a book or any kind of reading material that will give me words of upliftment and joy. And this one I just found.

Go Forth and Prosper

These are the moments...

Be the victor, not the victim.

Smile! It confuses people!

Chocolate solves everything!

Listen to what your heart is saying.

You mean the world to someone, ME!

Some things are only felt with the heart.

A smile is a curve that sets things straight.

Some pursue happiness, others create it.

Imagination is the soul within...

Are you financially fit?

Have you ever taken a financial quiz? I'm not talking about anything related to school. It's about a quiz geared towards helping you find out or assess what your financial condition is currently. It's the BillsIQ test. For just a few minutes, I answered a few simple questions. I have already blogged about this since I took it before and now I took it again just to remind myself of the things that I need to watch out for for a good financial health.

As I grow older, I become very aware of how hard life can be especially when you are financially unsecure. Right now, I am doing some simple planning for my future. Of course we don't know what will happen in the future but now that there's something I can do, I am doing my best to prepare for it. There are so many things to think about like retirement, major purchases, maintenance, savings, insurances, health conditions, etc and they all involve money. Bills.com has so much information anybody can use for future planning. After the test, it even give you solutions and ways to improve or be in a better shape financially. Take the test and see for yourself.

Xenadrine RFA-X

You wonder what that is Xenadrine RFA-X? Well, that's a fat burning diet pill. Now, I can't review, compare or talk about that pill since I haven't tried it. I can't even recommend it. But if you are interested about what it is and what it can do, there is a site that did a review about this pill. PricesExposed.net contained a review of that pill and how much it'll cost. Very informative site! Not only does it reviewed this one but hundreds of other diet pills in the world. Now, if you ask me, it's really better to read and learn about diet pills before you take one. I got to say that they don't work for all people and as what the saying goes, different strokes for different folks still holds true. Not to mention the prices! It looks like the prices doesn't measure how effective the product is. It still boils down to what is compatible with one's body chemistry. Good luck!

Customize your shower curtain

These days you can customize anything including shower curtains. Sometimes, I feel that I need to have custom shower curtains in the bathrooms to have harmony in the design but didn't know that there is actually a store online that I can find this. Photoshowercurtains.com sells 100% custom shower curtains. Just provide them the photo and they will make the curtain just as exactly as what the photo shows just like below. You can even send your own photo and remind yourself of your cute smile everyday. How cool is that?!

Regency Square Mall

Yesterday, my friend and I went to Regency Square Mall. When we went there, I realized that I haven't shopped for months! I kind of miss the place which was where I used to shop before but I love the mall close to my new place now. The mall was still the same. I was disappointed when I found out that the Dillards store there is now an outlet store. So many shoppers yesterday, I tell you. There was a back to school promo in JC Penney and a lot of other sales from other stores. After a couple of hours of shopping, I was so tired, I just let my friend shop by her own while I wait for her at one of the rest areas in the mall. I found some nice deals but passed some of them. I really didn't plan on buying anything but just to pick up some free stuff at VS. But I welcome the change alright.

Birth Announcements

Hey, that's not my baby but isn't he so cute? I'm just showing you an example of a birth announcement from Doodlebugdezigns.com. Isn't it lovely? I do love children and would love to have one. Not yet though. Time will come I hope. This is just one of the lovely photo birth announcements and holiday photo cards that you can find at doodlebugdezigns.com.

Got my two days...

Yup, I got my two days rest from Friday to Saturday . Didn't blog at all! I just had to get away and give my eyes some needed rest before I battle a new week. I've been all computer everyday from early morning to late at night since I work everyday and then when I come home, I just can't stay away from it. I don't want to neglect this blog but my eyes and back have been bothering me. A friend told me that it might be my position whenever I'm in front of the computer. If I am looking up towards my computer instead of looking down, then that's the reason my it giving me back aches. Hmmm. Starting today, I will avoid looking up and instead adjust my seat high enough so I don't have to do that anymore. We'll see and I'll let you know after a few days. :)

I'm just glad I'm back to blogging!
