Homeschooling for me? ...

Now that we have our son enrolled to a Home School program, we experienced first hand the advantages of studying in the comfort of our own home. And it got me thinking, maybe I should check the various online universities available and study at home myself! With the many options – I can get additional skills that I need. I specially would love to learn more about website programming and design, or internet marketing and SEO! This is really something that I should seriously consider.

Knee Brace ...

When I was in elementary, I had a girl classmate wearing a leg support just like the acl knee brace for sports. I was never really close to her that is why I was not able to ask her why she had that injury. She would walk slowly by surely along the hall. She was always sitting at the front of the class because of her condition.

Years later, I was able to track her down on Facebook. It turned out she is doing quite well and had long dispatched her knee brace. She has been able to walk normally for years.

I am glad someone invented braces. This is helpful for people who are into sports and have suffered an injury or wear and tear. For people like my friend, this has helped them for their therapy.

Transcribing Again ...

We made an unplanned trip to the mall the other day. I was again trying my hand at transcription. The problem was my old headphone was not working anymore. So we made a quick trip to the mall to buy one. We were supposed to buy color ink cartridges too but we forgot. Our printer has run out of ink months ago and we really need to print some stuff for our homeschool. I guess we just have to wait for next time to buy that those ink cartridges.

When we got home I had to transcribe right away. I didn’t think I would be missing transcribing but I actually did. Too bad I do not have all the time in the world like before. Back then, I would transcribe the whole day to be able to submit the transcript by night time. Now that is not possible anymore because aside from homeschooling my eldest I am also taking care of my six month old baby. So I can only transcribe by 10pm and not earlier than that. I hope my new part time job allows me to have a flexible schedule.

Laptop Reformat ...

After three years of using the laptop I have finally decided to have it reformatted. It was not an easy decision because I have already accumulated a lot of things that I have downloaded through the years. I was afraid I would be erasing something important by reformatting the laptop. But my situation left me no choice. It was either that or waste some more precious time waiting for the laptop to boot, shut down, or load. Since time is more precious than my “clutter” I finally asked my husband’s help. I am so lucky he knows a lot of things about computers. Without him I would have to pay someone else to help me with it.

Pain in my Hand ...

Earlier this week, I woke up with a pain in my thumb. I can not move it the way I used to. I suspect it is because of my poor working habits. Working online means I have to use the computer a lot. It is easier compared to physical labor since all I have to do is type with my fingers and click the mouse. But overdoing it can be bad and now I am suffering the consequence.

So now I am limiting the use of my right hand. As a temporary remedy I made a makeshift hand splint to restrict its movement. Now I wonder if I can apply for social security disability or some sort of compensation because my present situation limits me in a lot of ways. On second thought maybe not. I am still thankful I can use my other hand but if the pain does not go away in a few days I will be going to my doctor.

Payday Laons ...

My working at home has been made possible because of two things – my internet connection and laptop. This laptop particularly has been my companion for three years already. It is still working fine but my only problem with it is that it has become too slow. I guess I am to blame because I have added countless files and programs and other stuff in its memory.

That’s why I want a new laptop to aid me in my work. I have been thinking of getting in touch with payday loan lenders to help me buy a new one. I can pay in full for a new laptop but that means I would have to get one that is less powerful. Hubby doesn’t want me to buy one of those netbooks because he said I would just regret it in the future. Since he knows more about computers than me I really should follow his advice. A payday cash advance could give me the extra money I need to buy a fast laptop.

The cash advance loans can help us when we are short of cash. Just remember that this type of loans need to be paid right away.

Online Bingo Craze ...

I still remember playing bingo when I was still a little girl. Bingo was a past time for the people in the province and  no wonder they like playing it, the thrill of winning and getting the right number combination can be exciting. Here in the metro, the bingo games are not played in the neighborhood just like in the province. It has become so popular that even the malls have space for it. I haven’t tried playing in the mall because I’m always at home. Good thing bingo sites are abound in the internet such that whenever I want a game I can just do it with a click of my mouse.
There are many new bingo sites 2011 to choose from and I’m glad new no deposit bingo sites are up for people like me who just play for fun. Playing the game sort of brings me back to my childhood and I still get excited every time I win.

Father’s Day is No Working Day ...

Father’s day is coming in a few days.  Am I prepared for it?  I’m afraid not!  The kids and my work has again made me super busy. But that’s no excuse, because this happens only once a year.  This time I would not let this event pass by without doing something for my hubby. The kids are definitely going to surprise him with a few things they have prepared. As for me, I’m no kitchen goddess but I’ve been practicing this past few months so I think I can whip up a decent dish that’s special enough to commemorate this occasion. Good thing my hubby is easy to please and appreciates my efforts.  To make it more special, maybe I’ll surprise him with the lingerie I bought from http://www.5starslingerie.com. LOL!

Cheapest Kate Middleton Engagement R ...

Kate Middleton has got to be the most famous wife right now so I don’t blame it if people want to be just like her starting from finding a Kate Middleton Engagement ring replica to finding the same style wedding dress.

Thank goodness I’m already married so I don’t have to worry about those things. What I’m curious now, having been a wife for 6 years already, is how does she find married life so far. Although she’s already a duchess and I’m just an unknown wife it seems that we a lot things in common. For one, I heard all she wanted was to become a housewife. I was taken aback when I heard that because here was this smart lady who can have any career she wants but all she wanted was to be a wife and take care of her husband. Of course, hers is a prince but I’m sure she cooks for him and wait for him to come home every night just like I do.

So what if she can afford to buy Table Rock real estate and I don’t. I realized I have no reason to find the Cheapest Kate Middleton Engagement Ring Replica when a person like her who can have it all wants what I already have in life.

The Drug, Topamax ...

Have you heard about the drug, Topamax? I read in the news recently that many people are filing for Topamax lawsuit. The victims were women who had taken the drug, Topamax, while pregnant. This drug is for treatment of epilepsy and migraine but there was no warning that pregnant women shouldn’t take it. Further studies showed that there was increased risk of having children born with oral defects if you had taken this drug. For me, that’s the worst nightmare a mother could have. It would be real hard for them to forgive themselves knowing that something they had taken while they were still pregnant caused this defect to their precious child. That’s why I understand why they are filing a lawsuit after what happened.

If you are one of those people affected you should hire an expert lawyer on thus matter.
