A Certified Busy Mommy

I had been very busy these past few days. Things around here have become so hectic I feel like I’m always running out of time. My baby was sick I had to bring her to her pedia. Thank God she's OK now. And, I have the usual mommy chores to attend to. Good thing I have my sister and my mother-in-law to help take care of the baby and the kids and maintain the house. Then there's my offline and online jobs. I am glad my hubby is not here I can forget for a while my wifely duties though I still check on him every day as every dutiful and loving wife should. And oh, he’s just got promoted to the next higher rank! People around me are wondering how I was able to do all these things. They’re fully aware I’m no super-woman :). Sometimes I have to literally slap myself on the face to be reminded that I am not, and that I need to slow down a bit. I have this tendency to be obsessed with work that I wouldn’t stop till it’s done, stretching myself too thin in the process. So how am I able t

I've Purchased My GoDaddy Domain Today

I want to take my online presence to the next level so I decided to purchase my own domain name at GoDaddy just now. Good thing I found a coupon code to get it for $1.99.

In case you're also in the lookout for GoDaddy coupon codes to get your domain for just $1.99, here's the code you can use: 199test

I Made My First Squidoo Lens...Hooray!

Today, I made my very first squidoo lens about how a beginner web searcher could make his web search easier, faster, and efficient . It's a very straightforward advice a beginner searcher could appreciate, I hope. For those of you who don't know what's a Squidoo is, it's a free space on the internet that you can use for whatever you wish - for free. Please visit Squidoo.com to know more about this. Why I made a Squidoo lens, you may ask? Well, it has been said that everyone's an expert about something. I believe in that so I offered my "expertise" and created a lens. Wanna see my lens ?

I finally got myself an Acer Aspire 5720-4126 laptop today. Courtesy of my oDesk earnings. I have long wanted to have one on my own but I just didn't have the resources. A birthday gift to myself :)

Thank you, God...

Thank you, God for the beautiful world for the sun and the blue, blue sky for the birds and the fishes and the flowers and the trees and the cute, little butterfly... This song my baby has learned from church reminds me to be grateful to God for whatever I have, no matter how small in my eyes they seem to be. Thank you, God, for everything...

Searching? Don't search for it, Find it!

I was tinkering on the Net a while ago when I stumbled upon this new search engine that promises to give us a whole new way of searching. It’s called Find.c om . Y eah, find. What’s a better name for a search engine than this, so off I go to find out what’s cool about it. Fresh, clean layout For starters, th e site offers a fresh, clean look. Fonts and colors are friendly to the eyes. The search box is bigger to accommodate larger font size for typing in search terms and the results are also displayed in larger fonts. This comes in handy for people like me whose eyes are no longer in their tip-top condition. Search results open in their own window. It’s no big deal, really, but I like it more than right-cl ic king to open the search result site in another window, just like what I always do with Google or Yahoo. Ease of use With practically nothing on its home page but the search box and a directory of content on many subjects, Find.com is much easier to navigate. Its no-frills design

Just a Quick Post!

Just want to make a quick post today before I'll bury myself with work. Early this morning, I was surprised to be awaken by my son's soft voice in my ear whispering, "Mommy, mommy, today's your birthday, right?" "Is it?", me asking in my still-groggy state. I was so sleepy I couldn't care much about what he has just said or gonna do. "Yes, and I have something for you." He went away and I was off to dreamy land again. Or so I thought. I felt something soft and cool brushing my nose. I tried to ignore it and forcefully closed my eyes, trying to shut myself off the world. But it won't just go away! So i opened my eyes. Do you know what I see? My son, with a bunch of alugbati leaves in his hands. "Flowers for you", he said. "Mama (his grandma) said it's your birthday today. Can't we go to the sea afterwards? You shouldn't go to work because you're having your birthday." My heart jumped with joy I hugged
