A Simple Life

This one came from Imelda.  Thank you sis, you are so sweet.  I hope you are having a great mothers’ day too.  I’m sharing this with all my mommy friends.  HAPPY MOTHERS’ DAY!!!

Today is Mother’s Day. I received a lot of greetings from kids, relatives and friends here and abroad. I am so grateful for the well wishers. Lucky are those whose mothers are alive. I am equally lucky, too because my mother still shines her guiding light through me and my kids. To her, i write this tribute:

A woman has strengths that amaze men.
She can handle troubles and carry heavy burdens.
She holds happiness, love and opinions.
She smiles when she feels like screaming.
She sings when she feels like crying.
Cries when she’s happy and laughs when she’s afraid.
Her hand molds children’s future.
She suffers in silence for the sake of the family.
Her love is unconditional.
MOTHER, YOU ARE THE BEST IN THE WORLD!

Check out the books at Online Bookstore and save on the hottest new and upcoming book titles by famous authors like John Grisham, JK Rowling, Stephen King and many more.  You can avail of 50% discounts on their bestsellers everyday.  I’m sure your mom would be very happy to get one of these page turners.

Most of us are in a difficult financial situation at present, but having a medical insurance is really important, actually, it’s a must.  You’ll never know when illnesses and accidents may strike you.  No matter how old or young and even when you are in great shape, you have to have a health insurance.

In case you or one of your loved ones gets sick you wouldn’t have to worry about how you are going to pay for the medical expenses.  Medical bills from even a minor car accident can deplete your savings.  You can count on your health insurance to pay for your stay in the hospital.

Finding an affordable insurance can really be tough.  You have to examine each one closely to find the best deal.  You have to be wise and make sure that you will receive the best of service and a policy that will suit your needs and your lifestyle  as well.

Herbs, like any other plants need tender loving care.  They need special attention.  They can be grown in container gardens, hanging baskets and window boxes.  They look small and will make your patios, balconies or terraces really smelling good.  They make nice presents too.

Saving is when you deposit your money in the bank or sometimes as bonds, wherein you earn money for interest.  You save the excess of income over consumption expenditures.  I remember when I was younger, my mom taught us to drop our extra money in our piggy banks.  She said, when she was younger, they drop their money in a wide bamboo stick, or sometimes in old bottles, that was how they saved their money then. It really doesn’t matter how we save our money, what’s really important is we save our money for future use.

Nowadays, only a few people use piggy banks, we save our money in the bank. We save our extra money for our future goals and if in case something happens, you have an emergency fund to use. And because the internet is very accessible to anyone, did you know that you can open and manage your account online? Savings Account maintained online gives you the ease of going to the bank and waiting on queue to get served especially on busy banking hours. Plus, the convenience of being able to access your account anytime of the day. You don’t have to wait for the next banking day to inquire about your account, they have a 24/7 customer service to help you with your every needs.

Dryer sheets are the best solution for keeping your hair static-free, but sometimes this leaves your hair looking limp.  To avoid this, use sheets that have already gone through a round in the dryer.  Place the dryer sheet at least an inch away from the roots before running it through hair.  That way, the oil which evaporated from the heat won’t add to your scalp’s natural oil and won’t leave your hair looking limp.

I got tagged by Crissy on this. Thank you so much sis!

Receiving a flower from a blogger friend is a nice feeling. Likewise, giving flowers is one way to express a range of emotions when words are unable to convey in the sender’s behalf. For me, receiving this flower award carry a significant meaning.

Therefore, I would like to extend my gratitude to Ness for the beautiful award. I like flower very much! And I’m sharing this with all of you.
