Worrier

I admit I do worry too about certain things but there is someone in the neighborhood whom I noticed every time I see this person, she is always so worried about something that her brows meet all the time that I do get to see her. I had called her the worrier at one point and I think she’ll be needing a wrinkle crème anytime soon if she keeps that up.

Anyway there are a lot of treatments to remove those wrinkles and I hope it could also remove the worries she seem to have so much of in her life.  I know people cannot help but worry over some concerns in life but if we always worry and show it in our face often then we’d age overnight. She seems just a few years older than me in my opinion but she looks much older than her age. Maybe I’ll trying coaxing her to just smile her worries away the next time I see her around.

Ouch

“Ouch” I could hear our neighbor in the house next to the apartment shout in pain. It made me wonder if she was okay so when I had a chance to go out yesterday afternoon on our way to church, I asked one of her house maids who was then cleaning outside about what happened to her. She said that their maam’s mother is suffering from severe joint pain for a few days already and then grandchild was trying to tug at his grandma to play with him but the child tried to let her stand. Of course she could not walk that easily anymore due to the pain that’s why the grandma shouted. Even if I were in her shoes I would feel the pain too. It might be frustrating for both of them coz those two used to play a lot outside the house when we first arrived here last year. They were close and the child must be wondering why he can’t play with her anymore now.

Protecting My Skin

My sister who is into the beauty business so to speak, told me protecting my skin should be something I should not neglect even if I am a busy stay-and-work at home mom. I am usually just a soap and water kind of person and not much into those beauty stuff. But for the past month or so I have started using to cleanse my face a foaming cleanser of a rather popular brand. My sis on the other hand suggested I use facial creams and moisturizers. I told her her I’ll think about it and somehow I have started my own kind of research for the best day cream and night cream, as well as moisturizer for my skin type. It ain’t easy coz am not much into this kind of stuff. I have yet to ask perosnally my friends around who uses them for suggestions and recommendation. though I have started browsing through review sites of such products to give me some idea on those products. It would also help to ask for advice from the professional and experts on this stuff. But for now, I think protecting my skin from too much sun exposure would be a good start then also like getting a good night sleep and the rest will follow.

Couldn’t Resist

roast suckling pig

I guess I found out hubby and I couldn’t resist eating the roast suckling pig served at a dinner buffet at MP. But quite too late coz he had finished his plate by the time I saw this photo. I had been telling him we must avoid eating this but we both gave in to temptation during our Valentine’s dinner buffet there. I was just trying to avoid that we might need cholesterol medications if we don’t control our diet and stick to a healthy one from now on. I remember one of my online friends who has hypertension was advised to watch out her diet coz her cholesterol is about to cross the limit. My mom the last time she saw me, strictly told me not to eat meat anymore. Good thing my mom won’t see or read this. But I do know I don’t want to reach that point when I need to find out my cholesterol level is not healthy anymore and that I need to control it with the right medication!

Fasting

Today was Ash Wednesday, the start of the Lenten season and therefore marks the start of the season of fasting and abstinence for us. I am kind of hoping this season will help me reflect and think less of food and more of fasting and abstinence as I was reminded while browsing through earlier on this day before we left for church those lipozene reviews which says it is extremely an overpriced product. That is what the review says. So if you wanna diet and want help of a diet supplement then might as well look for the best ones that is also priced right and works effectively for you. You can’t go on investing hard-earned money over something which does not work well after all. Those reviews will indeed be a help when deciding on which supplement to buy. On the other hand, if you can’t decide, you may try fasting and abstinence combined with daily and regular physical exercise too. It may do wonders just like having those supplements.

Well Child Visit

How much I would wish this would be another “well child visit” to be noted by our lil boy’s pedia later but as it is the lil one has cough and started to have a slight fever since late yesterday afternoon. But he remains lively, playful and cheerful as ever. So moms and moms-to-be out there should very well know the importance of taking care of their babies even from the start of pregnancy by taking prescribed prenatal vitamin by the OB-gyn that will help babies develop  well, and as for up to now with vitamin supplements recommended by your child’s pedia to help them become stronger and more resistant to illness and diseases in addition to the scheduled vaccinations given.

May the Lord heal me and my boys especially the lil boy. Let this be a well child visit indeed and may he need not take antibiotics.  We are so thankful to my mommy and daddy as well as my family for their prayers and support always for me and the boys. My own family never rejected or neglected our call for help.

Sunny Day

It will be a sunny day and I will remain positive today. I will try to remain strong for myself and the boys who are not feeling that well. I remain hopeful and I trust the Lord that He will heal me and my boys as the Lord Jesus heals. Just as the sun shines today, I know we will be better soon. Will catch a few winks with the boys for now as we were up so early today. See you later!
