This week on Simple Woman's Daybook:

FOR TODAY

Outside my window...it's a warm sunny day!

I am thinking...of what to do today aside from blogging and doing my updates and what to get for my husband's birthday next month.

I am thankful for...my husband's 37th birthday is so soon.

From the learning rooms...I can't find a piece of paper, I think I misplaced it again.

From the kitchen...I can smell the Teriyaki noodle I preheated in the microwave oven from last night. It's ready!

I am wearing...shorts and tee shirts.

I am creating...a new style for my cafe world on Facebook...

I am going...to return the jeans I bought online at the store today or tomorrow.

I am reading...the news I have heard from some of my friends online about their friend who had been sent to child for assaulting her husband which is somewhat so cheesy for me. She's tiny and small and I don't think she did it for anger but to protect herself.

I am hoping...to get something to eat tonight...

I am hearing...my son now who is watching his favorite show again on TV...

Around the house...toys everywhere as usual. I think the only time I had to write this post with no toys is that when my son is still asleep yet or out of the house and then I could able to pick up all his mess and put them all in a toy box.

One of my favorite things...well, blogging and playing my favorite games on Facebook.

A few plans for the rest of the week: well, I don't know yet but I'm going to a baby shower and maybe at the mall after ward.

Here is picture for thought I am sharing... is me!!! After watching the movie The Twilight Saga: Eclipse last June 30th. What a memory!

Better Deals on DVR

Friday, July 23, 2010

One of the best technologies today aside from high definition television, blu-ray disc player is DVR or Digital Video Recording equipment that was available from any cable TV network or satellite TV network. My sister in law had a DVR and it was really worth it. When I was at their house yesterday for her son’s birthday, she watched a show that was recorded a few days ago because she missed it when she went to work. I thought that was pretty cool that you don’t have to be in a hurry to be able to watch your favorite show, rather just set the DVR to record the show for later viewing.

Today, I received a package from the website where I ordered something for myself. Enclosed was a flyer about Dish Network offers. I was blown away by their current packages prices and I wanted to subscribe right now. I’ve been looking for an affordable cable TV provider that will give us more channels to choose. The activation was free, HBO and show time was free plus 18 channels for 3 months, free installation, and two room free on HD- DVR Upgrade, it means 1 HD and 1S-DVR, though DVR service applies but still it’s all worth it. I know a lot of cable network offers the same thing but one thing is for sure which one is very affordable and reliable source of cable TV provider.

Anyway, I looked online and I have found Time Warner Cable too. They also offer affordable TV programming packages and DVR packages just like Dish Network, you can get anything you want. I only have few favorite channels and for HD DVR from Dish Network, then I could instantly replay, rewind and play back, or pause live television broadcasts for up to 30 minutes that I couldn’t ask for more. Plus, I can record and store up to 70 hours of programming with the DVR service, and watch my favorite shows or sporting events whenever I want. I think I made my choice; I have to switch now and make most out of my money.

Devoutness

Thursday, July 22, 2010

This week on Girls Talk is all about I Love Me, Spiritually.

My foundation of spirituality is based on how I build my relationship with God. I grew up in Christian family values. I joined Sunday schools, young people’s conferences, and even church meetings regularly when I was a teenager. But that doesn’t mean that my foundation of spirituality is in high stabilization. I still have some shortcomings when it comes to my religious belief. Though, I prayed, read the bible, sing praises to the Lord but sometimes there a lot of things to consider in order being perfect to be called children of God. Despite the fact that I had these difficulties, I would still consider to have a strong Christian faith for some reason I discovered it myself. With that, I was thankful and proud to be a child of God and for loving me of who and what I am.

Moreover, I think my spirituality is strong enough to make me think what was good for me and for my family. I always depend on spirituality when I made certain choices and some decisions in life. I have read the Bible several times and I learned a lot from it and see God’s purpose which helped me to find the right direction that will lead me eventually to a good Christian lifestyle. I have found a husband who also God fearing and his family are all Christians as well.

The Gift

Next month is going to be my husband’s birthday and I have two weeks left for me to find that perfect gift for him. I don’t know what to get yet but I was thinking of getting him a gift card again. But I already did so last year. This time I wanted it to be different and yet perfect. I was looking online for some clothing and some men’s accessories such as mens ties, watches, socks, underwear, sunglasses, hats, belts, and so much more and yet I still don’t know what to get. I think that easiest for me to do is buy a gift card for him from one of his favorite clothing stores. Or else, I would treat him to his favorite restaurant or treat him to watch a movie that he wants in theater.

Well, I don’t really know what to get but hopefully I could get an idea someday. I think I have to ask him what he wants first. I don’t want to waste money on something that he really don’t need or want. I just can’t wait though to get him some birthday presents soon or take him out to eat and watch a movie.

Drinky Drink!

This week on 3x Thursday:

Alcoholic or no, what are your 3 favorite beverages? Why?

When it comes to beverages, I only have some few to consider as one of my favorite. I don't drink alcohol since it upsets my stomach and I don't like its taste too. So, I'm not an alcoholic drinker or beer drinker but I'm fond with mild wines though. But it always depend on what kind of wine.

Anyway, I do love to drink sparkling wine too, I find them good and tasty compare to real alcoholic wines. I think it is just for kids but I prefer it than anything else. I also love to drink soda pop but particularly Pepsi. I don't like the US Coke products since for some reason, it tasted different from the Philippines. I think the sugar ingredients has done something with it.

To make it shorter, here are my top 3 favorite beverages:

1. Mango and Pineapple Fruit Shakes - this is one of my favorite. I love the selection of Baskin Robbins Mango Freeze, Taco Bell's Mango Strawberry Frutista, and regular home made mango shakes which is the best.

2. Frozen Mocha drinks - I love this beverage during hot summer days especially when I'm sleepy and tired. I love the Starbuck's White chocolate mocha frappucino, mocha frappucino, and Tim Hortons' mocha.

3. Lastly, Iced tea - I love frozen beverages, I prefer them than drinking hot drinks. I love the regular iced tea but Lipton's ready mix iced tea I preferred. I also love restaurants iced tea such as raspberry and peach iced tea selections.

Fashionable Shoes

A few months ago, I’ve been into shoes and until now still shopping for shoes. I know that there are millions of shoes out there but one thing is for sure which shoes fits my feet and meet my preferences. I don’t have that much problem with shoes; I don’t care how much it cost as long as it is durable, well made, and fashionable. For some women, there is nothing better than a sleek pair of shoes. I love every style of shoes form high heels, flats shoes, to medium sizes heels shoes. It doesn’t matter how old and trendy the shoes will be as long as it will last for a life time. I’m taking about durability here. A lot of shoes today were affordable and yet it will not last longer. I rather spend more money on shoes as long as I could use them in the next five years. Some shoes today that are famous are of course the selection of Prada shoes. If I could have enough money to buy a prada shoes, I would take the chance because I know Prada was made its products with durability and high quality. Good thing a lot of online shoes retailers today offered deals and discounts on shoes which help women who love shoes to save some money as well.

So, if you are looking for particular shoes that you want to match with your favorite outfit, just visit Bluefly.com. They have wide selection of shoes that you can surely love. All their fashion ladies shoes include many things like sandals, boots, clogs, slides, sneakers, and many more. While purchasing look at both the style and the comfort and make sure that you purchase from an authentic store as well.

Looking for Work

This week on 3x Thursday:

1. Do you have a job, or are you looking for work? If you’re working, how long have you had your job? If you’re looking, how long have you been looking?

=I don't have a job, I stayed at home with my son but I was looking for a job though. I missed going to work and get a huge amount of paycheck than of what I was making by staying at home. I worked from home through my blogs and somewhat it helps me to buy what I want and for giving me some extra money but sometimes it is not enough to cover all my needs. So, I think it is better to find a job, a real job. I've been looking for a month now. I applied several of them but never heard of them yet.

2. How do you look for work? Do you use agencies, or other means? What are those other means? Which works the best?

=I looked online mostly. I don't use agencies or other means. I just use the Internet. I think Internet works because that's what mostly businesses are doing right now. You can also go to the store and apply but then they let you go to the computer kiosk to apply. There's also ways where you go to the store directly and ask for application form. This will work too.


3. What’s the longest that it’s taken you to find a job? What’s the shortest?
=I don't have any experience yet but if I don't look eagerly then it would take a long time. Sometimes, I'm not serious of looking a job actually. I don't know yet and I'm not sure because my son is now only 3 years old. Maybe when he goes to school, maybe will find a job. The shortest was when I applied as a cashier. I applied like February and I got a call by next month. Then, started working right away.

Everyone Needs Life Insurance

Life insurance is not mainly for the breadwinner of the family and yet everyone in the family should have a life insurance. If someone depends on you financially or otherwise, then you need life insurance. Even a stay at home parent, or even a parent who does not contribute significantly to the household finances needs insurance too and even young, single people are the most prone to thinking that they don’t need life insurance. But they do. Age is an important criterion in deciding life insurance premium amounts, and young people usually receive the best life insurance rates.

When it comes to selecting a good life insurance, you have to consider few things as well. Not all life insurance companies promised you good things about their policies and premium benefits, rather all they want is your money. So to make sure you got the right insurance company, you have to look for some particular things such as better rates, economical premiums as much as possible, and compare various characteristic of life insurance in terms of income insurance benefit.

The importance of life insurance can never be emphasized too much. An uncertain economic situation and hard times are all the more reason to cover your family, and make them comfortable even after your death and have some funeral funds nsw to keep them secure. If you don’t have life insurance yet, the best time to get it is now. As time goes by it may be either too late for you to obtain an affordable rate or just too late to get a life insurance.

The Advantages of Direct TV

Have you ever tired of paying expensive bills on cable TV? Well, if you do then why not search for something better. DirecTV offers one of the greatest selections of television programming packages available in satellite TV today. You can be sure that with DirecTV you will be able to find a programming package that will fit your exact entertainment needs at a cost you can afford. The thing is, a lot of TV provider promised to give you a better service and yet they offer only few channels you can enjoy. Therefore, good thing to know that with Direct TV packages by DirectSatTV, you and I could enjoy good shows and lots of options plus free movies.

If we take a closer look at the programming packages offered by Direct TV by DirectSatTV, you will see that they offer the most popular movie and sports channels around today. These channels are popular because they offer the best in modern movie or sports entertainment available on TV anywhere and from anyone. Some of the popular channels I am talking about includes but are not necessarily limited to like HBO, Cinemax, Sports Pack, Show Time, and Starz.

It is also the best way to avoid some government dish rules which are limited to some areas. As you may know, satellite dish receivers have to be mounted in a high place away from obstructions. The ideal place is on top of the roof or outside a second floor or higher window. If you live in an apartment or rented house, you may need to get permission in writing from your landlord and submit a copy to Dish Network before installation to avoid future problems which absolutely takes a lot of your time and effort to do so. So, why not switch to something easy? Well, DirecTV is here to offer you a free hardware and installation as well.
