Living with my Father

My father requested a Bosch tankless water heater at home if we want him to stay there while my husband is away. He will travel lots this year mostly in Asia and it will last for like six months or so, so he decided to ask my father to stay with us while he is away. He wants to feel secure that there is someone looking after us even if he is gone.

I told him that he doesn’t have to do that because I can take care of the house and the kids but I allowed it because I want im to have that peace of mind while he was away. I kind of doesn’t like living with my father because he does have a lot of requests that sometimes are quite annoying but I guess I have to bear with it for six months. Hope I won’t go crazy while he is around.

After Worrying Too Much

Recently I have been experiencing  shortness of breath and chest pain. I even notice that I am losing weight even though I do not go out on a gym or taking any diet pills. So, I visited our family doctors last week, to know what was going on inside my body. I am afraid that I already have Mesothelioma because those are symptoms of having one. I have read that this cancer is almost always caused by previous exposure to asbestos.

I have not worked for jobs where I inhaled asbestos particles but I am washing the clothes of my husband who happens to work with asbestos. They say that washing the clothes of a family member who worked with asbestos can also put a person at risk for developing mesothelioma. So, after some test, result shows that I am negative of the disease. My doctor told me that I am just stressed. Thank God.

World of Slot Cars

I have a soft spot for electromechanical toys, which is why I am sitting here daydreaming about a Carrera slot cars set instead of doing real work. The German company has marketed a wickedly cool selection of speedy scale model slot cars for over 40 years. The name Carrera is Spanish in origin meaning “race”. This concise term outlines the company’s philosophy and identity. Since the introduction of Carrera in 1963 this great brand became clear market leader in the German-speaking areas and nowadays is a worldwide leading manufacturer in the segment of slot car racing.

The philosophy behind Carrera may be easily explained: The fascination of the car, the unique designs of different car brands, the adventure of motor sport and the irresistible urge of mankind to compete against each other are transferred to scale and fitted with Carrera quality and Carrera technologies, creating a platform for the young and old to be able to spend many entertaining hours at the Carrera racetrack.

I am in a weight management program and looking for that extra edge to lose weight right now. I am on a proper nutrition and training/exercise program regimen as well.  And I heard from a trusted friend that this discount supplements are a great addition to my diet to burn fat. I asked my doctor if it is true. He says yes, and he even recommend me one.

An herb type of discount supplement. He says that this has been used thousand of years for multiple health reasons. It was a herbal remedy to help individuals with asthma, hay fever, the common cold and now to burn fat. I know that I do not have to worry on taking this kind of pills since I already have my doctors advice.

Active Social Lives for Mommies

My friend was boasting about her figure when we saw her at the meeting lace last Friday. She said she got the best diet pill that is why she have this rocking body now. Well, she really looks good unlike the last time we saw her which was last year, Halloween and ever since then, we were so busy with our careers and families so we haven’t seen each other.

We decided that we will have this early Valentine/ Friday the 13th date, just the four of us. After that we will be celebrating the date with our loved ones. This is a good thing especially for most stay at home mothers to feel that they still have social lives even if they are staying at home.

Men’s Watches

For the Valentine’s date that I had with my boyfriend of three years, I gave him some Luminox watches. He is about to have this racing tournament next week and I thought of something to give him as a good luck charm. I don’t know what kind of things I can give him that he can bring along in the race so I searched online for some ideas.

He doesn’t wear necklaces so I thought a watch can be a good luck charm for him. He is not really into jewelries but I took a risk. I know he will not embarassed me in front of everyone when he open it during our dinner. When he opened it, he was surprised to see the watch and he immediately wore it. It made my night even if I haven’t opened his gift for me yet.
