A photo of my daughter trying her luck in the giant slides. I really love the colors of these slides and was glad I took photos. Which is also now my entry for this week’s Ruby Tuesday.
I’m going ga-ga over Forever 21 accessories. I was supposed to be researching for cat supplies but I got distracted with these beauties.
My mom told me she can be me most of them when she visits a local tiangge near our old house so I’m listing down the items that I wanted her to check out for me. I could probably just order them online now but just in case they are cheaper here, I don’t want to miss out on saving some cash so I can hoard some more. See below.
I accidentally came across a site selling furnace filters and was happy that I did. I found ultra allergen air filters, the one that I’ve been looking for so long in our local malls for only $15. With my husband and daughter’s seasonal allergies, you can never have too many filters in the house. Our water filter type doesn’t seem to be working anymore so it’s also time to purchase a new one. I’m thinking of buying three for two of our rooms and give the other one to my sister-in-law. I learned just now that my niece also acquired the ‘family sickness’ so they are doing a general house cleaning and removing all curtains and dust-friendly toys.
Had enough of twitter or simply want to try something new? See below for a list of online tools that can help you send updates about yourself via brief text messages, photos or audio clips. I got this from this post and got immediately excited. I am lazy when it comes to blogging that I prefer short messages for simple daily updates.
Dailybooth – Take and upload a photo of yourself everyday. Very nice especially for cam-addicts such as moi.
MySay – Different in such a way that you update by calling MySay and well, say how you are doing today. Then your friends and family can listen via phone, email or web.
Hictu – you need a webcam for this one. This is the twitter equivalent for vloggers. read more »
From last weekend’s party
It’s almost a year now since I treated myself to a nice day on the beach. And since I feel that deprived, allow me to make a post of my dream destination as soon as I acquire a budget that will let me and my family vacation in style.
Azul Sensatori – the first boutique all-inclusive resort located in Riviera Maya and one of the hotels from Karisma.
I always value the importance of booking a friendly-family resort because not only it would mean that my child will be welcome but will also be assured that she’ll have the time of her life. All inclusive family vacations with Karisma Hotels are designed to give your family a fun-filled trip regardless of age. It’s main goal is to give a hassle free, zero planning vacation on part of the parents while coming up with various kinds of activities to entertain everyone in the family. Best of all, they have so many opportunities so parents can have time alone while their kids aged 4 and up hang out either at the Kid’s Club (toys, equipments, programs by Fisher-Price and My Gym®) or at the Breeze Teen Club (interactive games like Wii, CD mixing classes, beach tournaments and tennis clinics).
To me it’s a dream when you can spend a whole hour on the beach without being interrupted. And I haven’t even mentioned the beautiful stretch of white sand, gourmet-inclusive dining, spanish classes, tequila tastings and non-motorized water sports. 
We are seriously considering getting home alarm systems now that Christmas is just around the corner. Robbery incidents increase at that time of the year and they target empty houses all the time. Think Home Alone I if you must. We don’t have a lot of important items except for the electronics that have taken us 1 or two years to pay with the help of 0% interests on credit card deals. So yes, we’ll definitely feel it if we lose our appliances. The cheapest that I found was still expensive for us at $130 so I’m still searching.
We’re fortunate to have guards in our village so I’m more confident that our home will be protected whenever we go out of town. Our community is not that big too so the guards only take 10-15 minutes to circle an entire block.
