File an Actos Lawsuit

Tuesday, May 8, 2012

Diabetes is one of the rare case illnesses in the world today that has no known cure. My father has been diagnosed with diabetes I, at first it was hard for him because of the insulin intake, until it getting better and better as the months and years went by. Unfortunately, being diabetic is already a part of his life; therefore, taking medications is necessary to maintain healthy lifestyle. One of the things he eventually maintains was taking medicines and supplemental vitamins. He even took some medicines which also being known to minimize his sugar level. There are a lot of medicines out there and I heard that some of them cause bladder cancer and even heart attack. One of the medicines called Actos.

Good thing, my dad hasn’t been taking Actos. Well, if you have known someone who had been taking Actos, then you can probably file an actos lawsuit in case your loved ones suffer cancer due to taking this medication. It is not too late yet.

Pinay in States' Daybook for May 8th

FOR TODAY...May 8th, 2012 - is another beautiful day here in
Michigan.

Outside my window...I saw that it is going to be another beautiful day.
It is sunny outside! I wish I could go out with friends today, but of
course, I can't. I have some things to do! I am trying to avoid
procrastination.

I am thinking...of what to do next after I update my blog. I have to
make meals for my kids and myself.

I am thankful...for another day to enjoy with my family...

In the kitchen...I made eggs and bacon for all of us.

I am wearing...printed yellow pajama and gray tank top.

I am creating...a blog post for this blog. I also watching my kids while
playing around.

I am going...to the store later tonight to get some meat.

I am wondering...what to do tomorrow. I think I still have to do what I
did today!

I am reading...nothing as of now. I don't have time to do so...

I am hoping...that someday, I could able to go out with my kids no
matter what! I could just enjoy being outside and be free!

I am looking forward to...our vacation in Florida next month! I can't
wait!

I am learning...to drive again...

Around the house...I saw lots of toys everywhere!

I am pondering...this word....Courage is sometimes frail as hope is
frail: a fragile shoot between two stones that grows brave toward the
sun though warmth and brightness fail, striving and faith the only
strength it knows.

A favorite quote for today...Excellence is the gradual result of always
striving to do better.

One of my favorite things...to do is watch TV, listening to my favorite
music, go window shopping, and of course hanging out with my family at
the park.

A few plans for the rest of the week: I don't know yet....

A peek into my day...Restless and boredom....

My birthday cards that I got from family and friends during my 30th birthday! Thanks bunches!

Beddings for Kids

When my son turned 2, we already put him on his own bed. We bought him a toddler bed that intended only for big kids. He told me one time that he wasn’t a baby anymore so he needs a big bed. I thought my baby boy is not a baby anymore because then he wanted his own bed now. So, I started buying him kids beddings, one time I bought him a “Thomas the Tank Engine” bedding, Sports and Animal Prints.

Now, he has some new likes such as sports such as football. Now, I’ve been looking for football beddings and I found it online. It is so easy to find beddings online due to the fact that you can access every store right at the comfort of your own home. That’s where I found this football bedding that I can’t wait to get for my little boy. For only $90, I could get one quilt, one fitted sheet, one blanket, and pillow standard size case. I can’t wait to get this one for my boy! I also got excited after seeing their selection of toddler beddings for little girls! I can’t wait to get some cute, girly toddler beddings for my daughter. She’s only 10 months old now so I still have more time to save money for it. She might love the Rock Angel or Cup Cake beddings. Though, they have baby bedding too but I already have those and don’t want to spend more money onto it.

Well, if you are looking for beddings and room decors for your kids’ room, then this is the best website to visit. Check them out today!

Opposite Lifestyle


with my mom and daughter at Abreeza Mall, Davao City, Philippines

Whenever I need something to buy or eat, I just go out of the house to buy it. Go tot the mall no matter what time or day. Without worries who's going to watch my kids. I have my mom with me all the time, so it's so easy. I could go out with friends and meet them for lunch. I have an access of everything. I miss those times when I can just go out whatever I want! Unlike here in the US, I couldn’t until hubby was home. It was really an actual opposite lifestyle here in US compare to my lifestyle in the Philippines.

We only have one car you know. It’s pretty tiring as well. Even though, I will have a car, it is overburdening to get all the kids ready and put them in the car, then take them out of the car when we arrive to our destination. It is just too much work and to hassle. I wish I have my mom here in US; I could just leave the kids with her for a while. Or take her with us so I can have help whenever I do errands. It is hard to have a toddler too and an infant when you go out. I think it is too much work to go out.

So, I rather stayed home. Though, I still miss being outside. I also was kind a scared of the idea that when I go out and I’m alone with two small kids, I felt unsafe and uneasy. I know it’s not a safe world out there. I just rather stay home with my kids knowing they will be safer here and wait for hubby to get home from work.

Warming Up

It’s been a week now since the warm weather is quite on the loose. It’s been almost a month when the spring is here, yet the wind and the weather is not really thriving with the idea of spring time. But, it doesn’t matter now; finally the warm weather is here! I don’t need to wear winter coat anymore! Not much the less since we’re still wearing, or have to a wear a trench coat which was used during spring time because of the chilly, windy weather. Though the weather is still blowy, but it’s better than being overly cold, like freezing winter cold.

Anyway, the weather was nice yesterday particularly when we went to church. Though the weather is a little bit chilly, but still it is nice, sunny weather. It’s comfortable to be outside for a while if you only wear a hood jacket and jeans, then you’re all set for the day. Though, it’s been raining for once in a while though which makes the temperature to fall off.

Well, I hope the weather will get warmer soon. I can’t wait to get the summer down here. I’m just tired of being all bundled up, I wanted to wear comfortable clothing. I know it will be soon. I just can’t wait!

Funny Shirts

Yesterday, I went to get some groceries and it happened I went to see some of kid’s clothes with funny remarks written on it. It was so cute. I almost got one for my daughter that says, “Tax Deductible” on the front. It was so true, though but they don’t have her size. It was so funny now that some shirts are really amusing now. I also find some funny tshirts online too for kids and adults. I also find funny shirts for babies. It was so hilarious. I will probably get one for my son and daughter someday, maybe, some for my husband too and myself. Well, I was thinking of getting some of these funny shirts to my family too for my package soon. It must be a special yet funny gift from me for them that always reminds them of me eventually.

A New Venture

Last week, I heard good news from my sister in law. A few years ago, she had been wanted to make her own hair salon. Finally, after a year of thinking about it, she made a decision. She now found a place where she can able to open up her private salon. It is small, it’s in a suite, but the idea of having an own salon is special. She can now have her own management and just by herself. You don’t have a boss or someone who just don’t always agree with you. You know what I meant when it is time for you to work with someone. You know sometimes there are hard people around. Make your own job more challenging and difficult.

Anyway, she just told us about it and we’re so happy about it. It is absolutely a new venture. I’m already one of her customer! I just love how she did my hair too. If you have time, and have a chance to visit and also living in Michigan, or happen to visit Michigan, she was located at one of the new building at Hayes Road. The building called Premier Salon Suites. She’s on number 118. It is located at 48697 Hayes Road at Shelby Township Michigan. She do hair cut, hair coloring, facial waxing and hair styling.

Today is actually her opening day! I'm so excited for her. Well, I can't wait to visit her suite salon someday. I thought maybe I could stop by later this afternoon when my husband gets home from work. But, I don't know yet but I'm looking forward to it! I can't wait to get my hair done too at her new venture of hair salon!

Time Traveler

Guest post written by Derick Burks

I am sure that if someone from the 18th century were to visit us today they would believe they are on a different planet. We have people walking around and talking into these small electronic devices everywhere. They wouldn't even know what electronic means. They would see people sitting in front of a large colored rectangle watching other smaller people doing every day things. Of course you and I both know I am talking about cell phones and televisions. But to someone from a different time, they would have no idea what those devices where. If you tried to explain wireless 4g internet, I am pretty sure their heads would explode. I mean think about it, just 20 years ago this technology did not exist, it wasn't even thought about. The advances of modern science truly are a marvel. I wonder that if we traveled 200 years into the future if we have the same response as someone from the colonial time coming to live in our time? It is hard to tell, but I am glad that I am growing up in an age where we can find out anything and everything at the touch of screen.

Botanical Boost for my Hair

Every day I did a lot of work whenever I woke up starting at 6:30 in the morning, I had too much on my hands already. So, all I did when I woke up every day was to see if I look good before I attend the kids to gets worst every morning. I hated it until I found this moisture infusing and moisture spray from Ouidad. Ouidad had been known products treating dry, frizzy and wavy, curly hair. Good thing I have an opportunity to try the product. I used the same product to my kid’s hair. My son’s hair was wavy. It was thick and it was hard to manage until I used Ouidad shampoo and conditioner for kids. It did help his hair a lot. It became softer and smooth.

So, I decided to try it to my 9 month old baby girl who had been experiencing frizzy wavy hair. For some reason it works magic on her hair. Every time I shampoo her hair with Ouidad, I can’t help but smile. This shampoo does miracle to my kid’s wavy hair. I also have tried their spray for kids which were really helpful during morning routine for my son to get ready for school.

Therefore, I never hesitated to use moisture infusing and moisture spray for adults. I always used it whenever I have no time to do my hair in the morning. It’s a botanical boost that is gentle to any type of hair. It does work on my wavy frizzy hair. I have thick hair but this worked the best. I never find my hair dried, yet very soft and manageable. It moisturizes my hair and even helped my hair from breakage and damage from heat styling. I do style my hair often and this leave-in conditioner helped mmy hair to stay protected. The best thing about this product it contains no oils or waxes to weigh my hair down. I love it! I was so glad I found this product! I will definitely but it and it is quite expensive but trust me, it all worth the price!
