Back-up for My Files

Good evening guys! October is almost ending. I hope that you had a great October month. I guess not for me because I am having some problems with my computer right now. It is just processing very very slow. I also noticed that it is getting loud now. I am afraid that one day, I will just open it and it won't work anymore. I need to have online backup for my files before it happen. This can be very scary if I lost my important files in my computer. Oh gosh! It took me around thirty minutes to write this very short entry. Normally I am done in three minutes but now almost half an hour. This is so annoying! Sorry guys! Just a reminder, don't forget to back-up your files before your computer crashes. I am starting it right now. Anyway, I just want to end up by saying that it took me 36 minutes to write this post.

Good Site for Firefighters

I remember visiting the trade show in Kelheim last month. There were a lot of businesses who participated and introduced their products to the public. The fire department also participated as you can see in the picture I have here. They also presented some equipments they use when fire fighting. I am just curious how much a fire and rescue equipment cost. I mean the gadgets and equipment use by firefighters. Thanks to this site called Comtrex who provide information about it. The site is very easy to navigate and it process very fast. The website is also professionally designed. I guess fire fighters and shoppers would love to visit site like this. Need something for communication and tactical equipments? Go to Comtrex!

WW- Who's The Hottest of Them All!

I want to laugh if I see this picture! Imagine I met the hot girls in Las Vegas last year? I never see them in person when I was in the Philippines but I did in Vegas. We happened to go for eating in Chowking in Las Vegas and they were also there. what I did! I striked a pose with them. The question is, who's the hottest of 'em all! wink!

Good News and Bad News

I got both news today, bad and good. Where do you want me to start? I guess I begin with the bad one and very very sad one. Can you imagine if you lost one of your love ones? Can you imagine if you lost a member of your family? This will be the saddest news you can have. I even remember a very good friend who died last year due to cancer. Tears were even falling from my eyes as I heard the news from her sister. Anyway, as I went down to the kitchen this morning to take my tea time, HB already laid the newspaper where the obituaries are. My friend's father in law died. I immediately call her to extend my condolence and sympathy. I am also going tomorrow to attend the burial ceremony. That's the bad news my friends.

The good news is, my sister left a message in yahoo messenger telling me to take the best fat burner for me to lose weight before I go home for vacation this holiday season. I miss the yummy food back home. If I don't lose extra pounds now, I will be gaining more in my vacation. Not really a good idea for me. The best news is, our dear beloved youngest sister had already her visa to the US. She had an interview yesterday in the US Embassy in Manila. Now she is backed to Cebu and sent me that YM. God truly blesses her. I know that she deserved it. Good luck to her and best wishes to our family. Best wishes to everyone too!

Poinsettia, Christmas Star, Euphorbia pulcherrima

Christmas is almost here. I am very happy that I will be spending home Christmas this time. I am also giving you some Euphorbia pulcherrima, also known as Poinsettia or Christmas Star. I bought some red ones before but it is the first time that I have seen pink colours. This was taken during our visit in a garden center. Aren't they lovely? I always love flowers that's why I love this meme. I wish everyone in advance a merry and joyful holiday season. I might not have time to greet you on time in December because I have a very long vacation next month.

Investing at Young Age is A Good Act

Investment can be in any form. It might be a house and lot that you buy. It can be a form of savings deposit in the bank, a security bond, investment bond, time deposits or can be a form of a life insurance. Would you believe that I also made some human investments. I helped my sisters go to school and to take degrees or studies. I am happy now that they are already done in college and I am proud of them. Isn't it a very good human investment? HB also made some investments. Hopefully next year, he can already have the return of premium life insurance which he have been paying for almost three decades now. We are hoping to have a better financial freedom in the coming year. I am also happy to have little investments back home. It is better than nothing. So young people out there, you better invest wisely while your young. The younger you are, the better for your future.

SS- Visit To Salzburg, Austria

It's time to share a photo for SS meme. The one I have here was taken somewhere in Salzburg, Austria last year. We just happened to pass this street during our sightseeing trip there. Winter is almost coming. I guess it is time to stay warm all the time. Have a lovely weekend to all!

Not A So Good News Back Home

I guess life is like that. It is like a wheel sometimes we are up and sometimes we are down. We are up because those were the times when we are happy and it seems that there are no problems on our way. We are down because we feel the world over our shoulders. This is also true when a family member is sick or any problem comes and it seems that we cannot find a solution to it. Sometimes I just want to remember the song, "Don't Worry, Be Happy".

I just felt very sad last time after knowing the result of the different medical tests of my father. There are some negative results especially the decrease of his red blood cells and the fibrotic changes in his lungs. I even have here the message from my sister which was sent to my mail last Oct. 12, 2009. Since we Filipinos always love our families, all we can do is to help when we can. I will try to translate next time this message below in English. For now, I want to wish you all good health always and stay safe all the time. I also need to search for good copper sinks later. More updates in a couple of hours in my other blogs. See you later guys!

Below is excerpt of the mail that was sent by my sister last time

Got Back Something

Good evening guys! I am still quite tired today until now. I woke-up so early this morning to take care of some very important things. Thanks God, that it was partially resolved. I also went to the bank and found out that the insurance company already returned back the money for my sister's travel insurance which we paid last August. I also asked some information for life insurance quotes which HB is trying to find out. My sister's visa to Germany was denied which is also the reason why we also asked for the refund of the travel insurance. We are happy that we got back our money. More updates next time. Good night and take care folks!

Have Great Weekend!

Good morning everyone! I promise this will be my last post for tonight because my keyboard is working weird again. I have to restart my pc to have it functioning back to normal. I also do not want to restart it because I am slowly going to bed now. I hear some nice music from HB already. Besides that we will wake up later earlier to take care of very important things. Since I cannot go to sleep immediately, I want to read a magazine for some reviews of the best diet pill. I also know that you are happy again because weekend is finally here. I just want to wish you all a wonderful and safe one. take care guys and more updates later. Feel free to visit my other sites for more updates. Thanks and goodnight!

It's So early to have Snow!

I can't believed it that we have experience snowing in our place at this very early time. Imagine snowing in October! As far as I can remember, last year's snow starts at the end of November. There are also some places in Germany that experience snowing since last week. This is the photo I took from our window today. Our garden looks sad now. Most of the flowers are fading. I even bought new winter plants yesterday and planted it too. I am happy that I already cut leaves of that pine trees that you see here and covered some of the perennial plants in our garden. It's time to wear warm winter clothes now! take care folks and stay safe all the time!

All friends out there, be careful in driving especially during winter time. I heard since yesterday over the radio that some people died due to car accident because of this weather. Drive slowly but surely!

Plan of Going Back to School

Good morning everyone! I don't know how many times I did mentioned that I want to go back to school again. It is only a plan but I will be happy if it will be materialized. I guess education knows no age limit. I still don't know what field I will be studying. I am interested in taking IT course or maybe in Medical and health field. Lucky for those who took courses in IT field because it is one of the most sought job nowadays. I believed if you are getting a masters information security, it will also help you advance your career. This is quite a very interesting subject of study because you will be able to gain technological and managerial knowledge on how to protect your businesses or any government agencies about IT risks and threats.

How I wish I can attend Lewis University Online. I also have to check if I am qualified. I will see after my vacation back home this year. I might already decide which course of study I will be taking again. Sad to say my bachelor's degree and work experience at home is not recognized to the country where I live now. That is also one reason why I plan of going back to school. That's all for now. take care guys!

Appointment with My Gynecologist

It's almost midnight again. I was watching downstairs a movie but can't finish it because I am feeling sleepy now. I also need to wake-up early tomorrow for my appointment with my gynecologist. I received a letter from her two weeks ago reminding me of my yearly check-up. I guess my Gyne loves me. She always tells stories to me every time I have an appointment with her. She is also very friendly. That is around thirty drive from where we live. After my appointment, I need to go some grocery shopping. I don't have the desire to go the past days.

Ladies out there especially if you are over thirty years young, don't forget to to visit your gynecologist for your yearly checkl-up. Just a friendly reminder. Goodnight to all my friends online. I wish you all a great week ahead!

It's WW Time

Good evening guys! I hope all is well to everyone! HB went home this afternoon and was not feeling good. I guess he got some colds. I let him take some medicine and gave him a good massage and now he is feeling better. Thanks goodness! I hope he will be perfectly fit for work tomorrow. My friend's husband was also sick today and did not reported to his work. We should be going shopping but did not happened because she need to take care of her sick hubby.

I guess I am posting two memes this time! check it out! This was taken last Sunday as we went walking. We happened to pass by in one of the small bridges in our place that is under renovation. They are trying to get all water down the small river called Forrelenbach, so that they can fix the bridge. I should get the whole photo of how they made the bridge and made another way for the water. Maybe this weekend again. I guess that's all for now! take care guys and stay happy and healthy all the time!

WW- Home Sweet HOme

It's almost midnight now. I hope that you had a great start of the month. I believed I had a good one. I am only sad after reading the news in the internet about the calamities that hit some countries in Asia including my beloved Philippines. We live in the middle part of the country in the island of Visayas particularly in Cebu Province. That is the photo that you see here. This is where my family live. It was also hit by big waves last January. Thanks God that my family are safe. A lot of small houses were also washed away by the big waves.

This is the place that I call home. I already found my second home in Europe but Philippines will always be my first home. Home Sweet Home! take care guys!
