For Sensitive Skin...

(Olay Complete for Sensitive Skin)

Do you have a sensitive skin?...I do...for a long time, I got used to finding products that have the label for "sensitive skin" whenever I buy some things for myself...most of the time, it would be a difficult thing to do because some of these products are hard to find...

Aside from the "for sensitive skin" marks, I also look for the labels " Unscented" and "Gentle Formula"...all my beauty products are like lotion, bath soap, washing detergent and facial cream and wash are mostly "for sensitive skin", "unscented" and " with gentle formula"...

If I come across something that does not agree with my skin, I will be itching so bad with red patch of rashes all over my skin...I remember when I first came here in the US, I had an allergic reaction after "mine"(hubby) washed my clothes with Tide...so after that incident and after we finally found a washing detergent that agrees with me, "mine" finally have to wash my clothes and his separately...because he does not agree with what I use too...

Thankfully, My skin agree with all Olay products...so now, that's what I've been using...the only bad thing is they're kinda expensive...the Olay complete shown in the pic above actually cost me about 8 bucks for that small bottle...

Drink Your Milk!...

I'm not much of a milk drinker...I actually only drink milk when I get the cravings for it which is very,very seldom...all I have been drinking during meal time is soda, soda, soda...and sometimes, Nestea Iced Tea with fresh lemon slices...I drink water too, of course...but most of the time, I drink soda...

Lately, "mine" has been telling me to drink more milk...telling me that I need it to remain active and healthy, and to have strong bones too...

Milk; he said, is the richest and almost complete food of man. It gives the body materials to build and repair muscles, hair, teeth and bones. It has a vitamin A that adds to good eyesight....and many more benefits of it...

So I guess I better drink my milk...

Getting Inked?...

(Photo Source)

"Mine" and I was were watching TV awhile ago and we saw a girl with a cure tattoo...that's how I brought up the subject of me getting a tattoo...

I have always wanted to have one...I don't exactly know why...maybe I got influenced with the idea that getting a tattoo is hip and cool...well, we all know that tattoos thee days are already considered a form of of art; body art...thanks to to famous Hollywood celebrities who advertise tattoos in their "beautiful" bodies...celebrities like the famous Angelina Jolie and the foxy Megan Fox...

As for me, I don't want to get a tattoo to be like those Hollywood celebs or to be called hip and cool...I'm actually planning to get a tattoo to celebrate my next birthday and our 1st wedding anniversary...but, it's still not really a final thing...

It will be a sure thing once the ink will be finally tattooed in my skin...as for the design I want, I have a few choices already...

"Mine" mentioned that he will be bringing some kind of food or pie to work because they have have an early "Thanksgiving celebration" at work with his co-workers...when I asked him what he'll bring, he said he might just make some Pumpkin Pie...

State Series Quarters Collection...

The plan is to collect just the 50 States...

I'm talking about out States Series Quarters Collection...after checking all the 50 US States and sorting them out alphabetically, I finally decided to put them up already...I made a frame-like thing for it and decided to use double-sided tape to stick them on it...

When 'mine" got home and saw it, he said we can just buy a ready-made frame for those quarters collection wherein I will just stick each coin in a slot with a corresponding State name on it...

So we did get one when we went to Hobby Lobby...but the one we got includes the other 6 US territories which make it 56 quarters all in all...unfortunately, I don't ave the others yet...but I do have the Guam quarter so I really just need the remaining 5...

I just hope I can still get those 5 other quarters to complete my collection...

Quarters Collection...

(My Collector's Map...)

This is my Collector's Map for my State Series Quarters Collection...we bought this one yesterday when we went to Hobby Lobby to look around and buy something I have been looking for...

This Collector's Map includes the 50 States, Washington, D.C., and other U.S. Territories which includes Puerto Rico, The U.S. Virgin Islands, Guam, American Samoa, and the Northern Mariana Islands...so really this collector's map would be composed of 56 quarters all in all...

But the additional 6 are really hard to find and out of the 6, I only got Guam quarter...so I still have to find the remaining 5...but at least I already have all the 50 States and hopefully I will find all the remaining 5 I need...

I just have to check every quarter dollar we will get from now on and "mine" will also do the same so I can complete my collection...

More Scrapbooking Materials...

I finally had my wish granted...my wish to get more scrapbooking materials from Hobby Lobby...I have been hinting to "mine" about it for a couple of days now but he's been working more days now so I just have to wait when he will be off from work...

Finally, he was off for a couple of days and he finally said we will go to Hobby Lobby to get me what I've been wanting to get...things like scrapbooking materials that I need to finish my family scrapbook that I will send to my family in the Philippines...

I got me some more scrapbooking papers, stickers,decorative ribbons and a small glue gun plus a lot of glue sticks for it...

(Assorted Decorative Ribbons...)

(All Seasons Scrapbooking Paper...)

(Stickers Galore...)

I just hope I can finish my scrapbook in time...

General Cleaning Mission...

"Mine" is off work and we decided to do some general cleaning today...well, he did most of the chores from vacuuming, scrubbing the counter tops, washing clothes and things like that...my task is to organize and clean up my MESS in our bedroom...all sorts of papers, stickers, ribbons and things like that... as for the laundry, I did the folding and the ironing of clothes...

I also do some vacuuming sometimes...only sometimes because our vacuum cleaner is too big and heavy for me...plus I really have to be in the mood before I do some cleaning...and when I'm in the mood, you can be sure that every corner of the house is clean and polished...

Manny Made History...

(Manny Beats Cotto...)

Manny "Pacman" Pacquaio did it again...he won another title belt after beating Miguel Cotto...this time, what Manny accomplished is really one of a kind...with this WBO Welterweight Division title, he became a 7 time title holder in 7 different weight divisions...

Way to go, Manny!!! you really did put the Philippines in the world map...I just hope he won't become like other famous boxers who let their achievements go to their heads and ruined everything...

Manny certainly make the Filipinos proud...

Peeping Through...

(Baby Abbie...)

When "mine" is working, I have no one else to talk to but Abbie; our female Yorkie...yup, you read that right...I talk to our dog...

Whatever I do and wherever I go, she would also be following me, even when I go to the bathroom she would still follow me...

When I do my blogging and other online activities, she would be there lying at my feet...just watching me...most of the time, I love to take pictures of her doing her doggie stuffs...I think she got used to it already that whenever I'm holding the camera and calls her name, she would look directly at it too...

The photo above is my latest snap of her, peeping through the front door, watching me while I was watering my flowers in our front steps...so cute!

The Final Count...


($575-Five Hundred Seventy Five Dollars...)

I'm finally done counting all those coins we have...FINALLY...it was a boring, dirty, and back-aching task but I was able to finish it without any help...

Unfortunately, I ran out of coin wrappers so I had to use scrap bond paper to wrap the counted coins...hopefully, "mine" will get more coin wrappers next time he goes to the store...

The good news is, the effort I did counting all those coins was all worth it because my final count was $575 (FIVE HUNDRED SEVENTY FIVE BUCKS!!!)...I cannot believe it!...all those coins, mostly pennies and dimes are worth that much...

Now that I'm done counting them, all I have to do if think of where I'm gonna use them...maybe put it in the bank?...or use it to buy something?...humm...I dunno...YET...

All About A Fern...

(My Beloved Fern...)

I have blogged about my beloved fern in my other blogs before... from the time I rescued it from a wooded area in our farm to the time it had grown into a healthy fern...

Now that fall-winter season is here, I'm afraid it would not survive the cold weather so I decided to bring it inside the house and hopefully, it will make it through this cold seasons...

I already bought a new indoor pot for it and I already placed it near the window so it cans till get some much needed sunlight...I don't water it too much so it will not drown...hopefully, it will be fine...

Pennies,Nickels, Quarters & Dimes...

(Coins Galore...)

It's been a while since "mine" started gathering and collecting his loose change/pocket change...he's been keeping them in a big plastic container in my closet...he would collect them in a cup in our car and when the cup's full, he would bring it up to the house and empty the contents in the big plastic container...

Most people think that coins; especially those pennies, are not valuable anymore...I, on the other hand, believe in the saying "a penny earned is a penny saved"...they may be small in size and in amount but these coins can accumulate and before we know it, we would have big bucks in our hands...

So I finally decided to count all those coins we have...pennies, nickels, quarters and dimes...let me tell you, it was a very boring and dirty job...it's hard to count especially those small ones...I have to take breaks and when I washed my hands, the water was very dark and dirty...

Hope I can finish counting all of these coins and hopefully, I will have more than a hundred bucks...

Fancy Pansies: Part 2...


(Pansies for our front steps...)

This is part two of my post yesterday... I forgot to post the pics of the other pansies I planted... these ones are for our front steps...the ones yesterday are for our back porch/deck...

I always make sure that I have flowers in our front and back part of the house...I even have some flowers planted in the sides too and near our driveway...but these pansies are only planted in pots because if we plant them in the yard, they will surely be eaten by deers because according to "mine", deers love to eat thee pansies...

I can't wait to see my fancy pansies in full bloom...I'm sure they would be very pretty because I mix and match 3 different colors in each pots...

Fancy Pansies:Part 1...


(My Newly-Planted Pansies...)

All my spring and summer flowers are gone now...so most of my flower pots are now empty or occupied by a dying flower/plant...I feel sad whenever I look in my flower pots and see nothing...no more green leaves and colorful blooms...

"Mine" asked me if I want to buy and plant some spring-winter flowers for my terracotta pots in our front steps and back porch...of course, I said YES...but the problem is I really don't have any idea what flowers to get..."Mine" recommended pansies because he said he had planted them before...so pansy it was...

We then went to Lowe's to get what I needed like the flowers, potting soil, and more terracotta pots...now that I've planted them, all I have to do is wait and look forward in seeing these pretty flowers in full bloom...

Florida Gators vs Alabama Crimson Tide...


This is one game that I have to make sure I won't miss...after a few times I've watched both Florida Gators and Alabama Crimson Tide play with other teams in this 2009 SEC Football Season, I knew they were meant to be playing for the Championship Title...what's more exciting is the fact that Alabama Crimson Tide is "mine's" beloved team while Florida Gators is my chosen team...

They will be playing with each other to compete for the Championship Title this coming December 5th and I'm sure it would also be a rivalry between "mine" and me because I would be cheering fro the Gators for sure because I really, really admire Tim Tebow and his capacity to lead his team and win...

As for the Alabama Crimson Tide, I know I should be cheering for them too because I'm from Alabama and I should be loyal to them...but I can't help it if I like to support the Gators more than them...I really have nothing against the Tide...in fact, I do cheer for them when they are playing with other teams...

Oh well, one thing is for sure, whoever wins the title surely deserves it because these two teams are the very best...
