So Much To Do.

I have a lot on my hands. Nothing big though, but when one doesn’t have much free time, tasks seem to pile up.

I need to have my son’s birthday invites printed today so they can be distributed to his classmates before the week ends.

I still haven’t started with his birthday lootbags yet. It will be mostly snacks and other goodies so a trip to the grocery will do.

I have 3 birthday gifts to wrap, as my son’s class is having a series of birthday parties before the school year ends.

We need to order food from Jollibee for his party.

An aunt requesting that I help her look for the best colon cleanser. This is an easy one. Coloncleansing.org has all the necessary information.

Shop for my son’s outfit for his Moving Up Day. I think they will be wearing a toga so a simple polo will do.

Wrap our gifts to E for his 5th birthday. I have a few but mostly cheap items. Some are books the I even got at Booksale. I know it’s going to be fun opening several presents. We still need to buy the Tomica toys he has been wishing though.

Prepare for the birthday party that his lolo and lola and tita M are giving him.

Summer is Here.

My son will be experiencing the beach for the first time in a few weeks. I am excited. Though I think the daddy is more excited than I am. Anyway, I am shopping for our needs little by little as I do not want to be overwhelmed by the expenses and I do not want to be rushing at the last minute.

I am also reading about losing weight and things like that. I am hoping I can shed a few more pounds before our getaway. I hope I can squeeze in more online time to learn more about the various fat burning products out there.

Too Much.

I ate a little too much today. I still have three more slices of pizza leftovers but I decided not to eat them anymore. Those pizza slices were supposed to be my food for lunch, but then we decided to eat out. And I did eat a lot. I know it is bad. First off, it’s Lent. And we should really stop eating even before we feel full, and not when are tummies are actually full. If this habit doesn’t stop, I might actually need a natural appetite suppressants or else I will gain all those pounds that I’ve lost. Yes, I am bookmarking appetitesuppressantreviews.net, just in case.

Loving.

I am loving my son’s Valentine’s gift. Of course, he was together with DH when they bought it. His dad had no choice but to buy something since my son told me that he’s giving me a perfume from France for Valentine’s. Where he got that idea, I don’t know. Anyway, I am really into body wash and stuff. I also like anything organic and natural. That’s why when I found out that our nephew has eczema, aside from the prescribed treatment , I plan to get him the organic soaps for him to use. Of course learning about other eczema treatment from eczema.com will be very helpful, too

Showing Off His Tattoo.

My boy showing off his temporary tattoo. This was taken during their school’s family day in Island Cove a few weeks ago. It will be my son’s last year in the toddler school. I hope that he adjusts well once he goes to the big school. I wonder when I can have all his milestones scrapped. It’s been years since I last scrapped. Sigh. Oh well. I have to take a look at first communion invitations for my niece before anything. I am not scrapping so we might as well just order the invites from Naptimecards.com.

Giveaways.

My son’s small party in school will be next Monday, his actual birthday. I have been thinking of what giveaways to give his classmates. We have given small toys, stickers and other kiddie stuff before, I want it to be different this time. Of course, nothing expensive but something kids will appreciate. How I wish I should have seen custom koozies earlier so I could have requested my SIL to order some for us. But I am afraid it’s too late now, so I might settle for some of my son’s favorite snacks instead. I’ll just put all the goodies in a small bag or this cheap, little pail {just in time for summer} I saw in the mall.

Live Poor.

I am currently reading this article on living poor and loving it on the internet. Living poor doesn’t necessarily mean that you would deprive yourself; it means that you must know how to separate your wants from your needs. I hope I can apply the lessons from the article to real life. I am also trying to learn about investing as I know simply putting the money in the bank will not earn as much. USgoldbureau.com is a good site to check if you are considering to buy gold coins as a form of investment. They say that gold has a good investment potential, primarily because gold is more stable than any other currency plus it is one of the most valued commodities in the world. They say that if you want to protect your savings from inflation, you better invest in gold coins. Give the site a visit if you want to learn more about this type of investment.

Job Search.

Maybe I am not meant to be a stay-at-home mom forever. I realized that I really can’t stay home for so long. Or I am probably just saying this because I don’t have a househelp and I am getting tired of all the chores. But still, househelp or no househelp, I want to do something else. Good thing job hunting is so much easier now than before. I can search for jobs at the comforts of my home. Say I am in search for jobs in Philadelphia, I simply need to visit PhillyJobs.com and they will provide all the current job openings within the area. I guess I better start looking for my dream job.

On Insurance.

I came across affordable auto insurance quotes from 2insure4less.com. It was so timely as we are planning to get new insurance for the car. It has been on my to-do list for the longest time but I find it too taxing to compare different quotes. But this site made comparison and selection so much easier. The site also has insurance dictionaries and various articles on insurance and insurance guides, and it truly made my job so much easier.

Summer Is Here.

Summer is here and I can’t wait to go to the beach. We have a short getaway planned for the family this summer and I am excited. I already got some rashguards for my son as I know come summer vacation, swimwear usually run out of stock. On my next trip to the mall, I’ll be getting some stuff for myself. I am shopping for our summer needs little by little or else I will be overwhelmed with the expenses. I am likewise browsing the internet for other ideal family vacation for us. Who knows, we might have some extra budget. I came across Azul Beach Hotel in Riviera Maya and it is indeed a very ideal resort for the family. The resort is kid friendly, with a Kids’ Activity Center, and even providing cribs, strollers, games, coloring books and even kid-sized bathrooms. Of course, parents are provided various indulgences, as well. I hope one day we can experience that kind of vacation.
