Breathe

Things are really hectic for me lately , that when i arrive home, i just want to take a warm shower and hit the bed. I am finding ways to feel relaxed again , so here , let me share this with all of you. I gave it a try for a few days already , and it works.

Breathe.

Breathing can transform your life.

If you feel stressed out and overwhelmed, breathe. It will calm you and release the tensions.

If you are worried about something coming up, or caught up in something that already happened, breathe. It will bring you back to the present.

If you are discouraged and have forgotten your purpose in life, breathe. It will remind you about how precious life is, and that each breath in this life is a gift you need to appreciate. Make the most of this gift.

If you have too many tasks to do, or are scattered during your workday, breathe. It will help bring you into focus, to concentrate on the most important task you need to be focusing on right now.

If you are spending time with someone you love, breathe. It will allow you to be present with that person, rather than thinking about work or other things you need to do.

If you are exercising, breathe. It will help you enjoy the exercise, and therefore stick with it for longer.

If you are moving too fast, breathe. It will remind you to slow down, and enjoy life more.

So breathe. And enjoy each moment of this life. They’re too fleeting and few to waste.

Tip: Put the word “Breathe” as a screensaver or desktop pic, or put it up as a note on your wall or fridge or on your desk. Then do it every time you see the word.

El Dorado royale Resort

I envy one of my friends at work because they will go to this resort for a family vacation . I cant remember the last time we went on a vacation as a family, you know, with my mom and dad. It was ages ago because we were not together as a complete family for more than 2 years now! This is the reason why , by October, i am really planning a vacation by the beach for us. All of us deserves this break after all the hardwork. I am one excited girl, i will send email to my sister to look for really nice places and beaches to stay. I know theres a lot our place can offer, and just like white beaches at Riviera Maya, we will wake up with sun, sea and sand! I cant wait!!!

Stocks again

I will soon want to have a breather from all stuff that deals with finances. You may not be aware that working at the bank is not just with money matters, but yeas, we also deal with some stocks. I had a hard time a while ago at work trying to figure out some things about this since I am not really good with stocks, and that is one thing i really admit. We have a few tools used for stock options , so i am thankful with that. We even use an iron condor and that is a big help for me in doing some spread sheets! Whew! ITs really one tiring day for me. Hopefully by tomorrow , things will be easier and lighter! I think i need a little retail therapy after this crazy week!

Aromatic milk bath

Use this mixed concoction immediately after making it, for soft and silky skin.

1 egg
1/2 cup light olive oil
1 tablespoon glycerin
1/2 cup dried milk powder
1 drop jasmine essential oil
1 drop rose essential oil
6 drops lavender essential oil
2 cups distilled water

Beat together egg, olive oil, glycerin and milk powder with a whisk or hand held beater. While beating add essential oils. Continue beating until a smooth paste forms. Add the water a little at a time, continuing to beat. Immediately add to your warm drawn bath (be careful...if the water is too hot you'll make scrambled eggs).

I found it here. Enjoy your home spa everyone

for my sister

I should be looking now for some industrial products that my dad asked me to search online, but here i am looking at shoes Hahaha. I've seen this pair of Steve Madden shoes from Heidi Klum , and i know she will love this pair. She is so much into flats since she is always with her kids , and the fact that this gladiators are stylish, i know she'll get crazy upon seeing it.

okay, i gotta check those industrial produts now. My dad is waiting for me to give him an update before lunch time. Im heading to the mall for some window shopping too.

Wear it to believe

A piece of jewelry can really transform your total look.

I can attest to this even if im not into jewelries all the time. My basic would be an earring and a watch. So when i tried this necklace that i got online , i love how it transformed my everyday suit into something classy. I went to a very important interview so i see to it that i look presentable and elegant. And it didn't disappoint me at all. You see, i can only spend a few dollars for this stuff so getting discount designer jewelry was a great move. I plan to order some more before i go home to Manila , this would be a great gift to all my friends there.

What to give?

DO you know where I can find some unique personalized wedding favors ? We are actually using it for a bridal shower for my good friend at work. I was given this task since they know how good i am with online shopping and they told me i can just order things online when i get busy. I want something personalized, like a notepad maybe? A notepad would really be useful to all of us, or maybe a small tote? I am searching for a great deal when it comes to price, hopefully i can find one on sale.

Anyway, my officemate will get married in August so we still have time to prepare for the program and materials needed. Work gets in my way and some personal stuff that i cannot blog for now . But soon when things fall into place, will definitely share the news with everyone.

Repairs

It all started with a clogged sink. My dad tried fixing it by buying this solution at the mall, at first it was effective, but a few days after, it went clogged again. So we called a repairman to help us with the problem since it's really giving us a hard time washing the dishes. And so he said that we need to get an undermount sink for replacement of the old one. He found out that it was the cause of our clogged sink. My dad was able to get one on sale at the nearby hardware . Now we dont have problems anymore and everything is back to normal at our kitchen. I hate it when something gets broken at our place because it means one thing, you know.

Med Supplies

My uncle , who lives a few blocks away from our place is still under medical care. Well, a nurse would come to their plae for some assistance every other day. Then during our free time, me and my mom would visit them to assist my aunt with some house chores as she takes her rest. Last weekend, i wasn't able to go to the drugstore to buy some over the counter meds and supplies so I ordered everything online since the site delivers fast too. I got a few stuff for our medicine kit , and a catheter for my uncle. Thank heavens for online shopping, everything is just one click away. Now , i need to browse thrpugh all the shopping emails i received over the week. A lot of summer sale that i am seeing and i am one happy girl again.
