our bunnies

Posted by Malou at 9/27/2008 07:35:00 AM 6 comments
Wuzzy and Beary had a big fight last night. Their cage were still outdoors in our deck. Never had a time when we see them fight since we got them from the zoo. Suddenly we heard a big thud and looked around were it came from. The bunnies are fighting, biting each others ear. We get the bunnies out of the cage. Daddy holding Beary on his arm and upon checking on Beary we realized that he was hurt. Poor bunny... Wuzzy was the bigger bunny and he seems okay. Later on we put Beary back on his cage and the two were playing again.

Car insurance

Usually it's something that you don't think too much until you really need it and then sometimes find out how good it is. Your car insurance pricing and what they cover in the policy is at least one thing in life that you should read to make sure what you are covered for. We found by shopping around that by increasing our deductible we save two hundred and fifteen a year which help our budget a lot.

Mushroom

Posted by Malou at 9/26/2008 10:45:00 AM 4 comments
Have you seen a big mushroom like this one? I don't know what kind it is but one thing I am sure of this mushroom is real. The kids found it at grandma and grandpa's backyard. About twice the size of the head of an adult. We get rid of it so the kids can't play with it. Who knows maybe the mushroom is poisonous. We don't want any one of the kids to be in trouble.

economy impact on consumers

Posted by Malou at 9/26/2008 09:04:00 AM 3 comments
It happens everyday to everybody in every place city, town, villages to low income and high income, men and woman. Every consumer is affected by this never ending problem in our economy which has a big impact to everybody. In this case everybody will do the best to tighten up their budget as to lessen the spending budget on everyday consumption on basic needs. Additionally with the growing financial trouble in real state market it doesn't make life easier instead it is making worse. That is why it is beneficial to have your debt consolidated to know how to keep track of your financial budget and stabilize your budget. We need to know our progress and where we stand so we can take a corrective action. We have a few credit cards but considering the high rate of interest if you just pay the minimal you'll never get rid of your debt. We thought of having a debt consolidation loans and find a company that offer a less stressful payment on debt. But our question is "Is this going to help or not"? There are lots of things to consider in consolidating debt because it might sink you farther into debt if you don't take proper steps to do it. That is why professional help would be the best resource to get a personalized financial advice from consolidating loans. To get out of debt, credit counseling is a solution. There are sites that offers help to consumers and give information's on credit with quality financial education and counseling services. One of them is http://www.nfcc.org/ Check it out.

Rainy Day Fund

When we went to the Christmas Tree store with grandma Westcott we saw a lot of beautiful things to buy which are reasonably affordable. We went on every isle and found some decorations for Halloween. On one corner we saw a pile of ceramic bottles with beautiful designs on it and grandma westcott picked two, one for Lilly and one for Jarred and paid for them on the counter. Jarred's piggy bank is already full and this bottle bank will definitely be useful for him to use someday on a rainy day.

Octopus.co.uk

Posted by Malou at 9/25/2008 09:50:00 PM 0 comments
Once in a while it is good to travel and unwind to get away from the hectic work all year round. You can travel through the airplane, through your car or even through the boat. I had the chance to travel with my family so I went online searching and I found Octopus.co.uk. Unbelievable, so many things that we were looking for were all incorporated on one site. We needed a place to dock our boat, we found it. We also wanted to go fishing on one of them group boats out in deep water. Our boat is very small. We stay close to our marina. We've never gone diving and it was pretty inexpensive we thought to actually learn to dive and then actually go on a dive of an old ship of course with our instructor. It was the journey of a lifetime for us.

We finally get Jarred's medicine from the pharmacy and immediately after we came home I took the medicine out of the box and give jarred the necessary amount of medicine. My brave little man doesn't have any problem at all taking the medicine to his mouth and swallowed it. I hope he will get better soon.

Our movie arrived from the mail and we were excited to receive the movie "journey to the center of the earth" but i thought it was one of the one guy that we were expecting but it turned out it isn't. We watched it anyhow and when the movie is over we gave the conclusion that it's an eahhh movie. Good thing we didn't buy that CD.

I don't like it when my son is sick. He had a dry cough, runny nose, and watery eyes. I worried so much when our baby is sick. It just started this morning when he woke up and coughing a lot. Going to get medicine this afternoon when daddy come home from work. I can't drive yet to go to the pharmacy which frustrate me more.

My in laws were preparing to leave for Florida. It's time for them to back home to stay away from the cold New York. They were leaving on the 26th of September so we all decided to have dinner with them tonight for the last day. So sad when they have to leave again and see us next spring. We will miss you Mom and Dad.

It's hot outside, your car should be cold

Posted by Malou at 9/24/2008 12:54:00 PM 0 comments
How would you feel if your auto air conditioning is not working right? On my husband's case he went down to Florida to pick up the truck that he bought online but the problem he had when he started the AC was it didn't work. He was frustrated when it happen besides the weather is too hot even if he rolled down the window to get some fresh air. Driving all the way home is a big trial to him without an AC in the car. As soon as he came home he went online and finally ordered the AC compressor. It's nice to know that the site he went to has all the auto air conditioning parts that he need. There's no worry for shipping because in case something can go wrong to the order there's a warranty of every parts.

This is what I had for lunch today kidney beans cooked in coconut milk. I don't usually cooked this kind of beans but I don't have the other kind I like so I experimented to find out if it taste good. So far I got full belly after eating all the food on my plate. Yummmy!!

Fine cutlery

I couldn't believe how time change so fast. I was only 15 years old when I started helping my uncle at their restaurant. They own a pretty size restaurant and after graduation in high school my parents couldn't afford for my college anymore so I decided to wait and find a job somehow to earn money and help my parents to support for our daily consumption. I ended up in my uncle's restaurant slicing meat which is not an easy job for me. Being cautious in doing it is important for safety. It's tough to slice meat when your carving knives and steak knives are so dull, it will take most of your time doing it. Working in a restaurant is a fast paced work so I had to do my part in catching up or else there's not going to have any food cooked for the customers and I might lose my job then. Working there gives me a lot of advantage because I get to watch my uncle cook the foods and learn his secret recipes which I can use now in my own kitchen. I guess cooking talent is in our blood because my two uncles are now chef on different well known hotels. My uncle work as a chef in one of the hotels in the Marianas Island while my youngest uncle is a chef in their town in the Philippines. Now that I am a chef in my house I always make sure that I have the best knives to use and always making sure that our knives works perfectly nice and sharp. I never had a dull moment in cooking. It is always fun and I am happy to see that my husband and children enjoyed the meals I prepared for us and an appreciation that they give me to prepare the food makes me happy.

Garden on a pot

Posted by Malou at 9/24/2008 08:37:00 AM 2 comments
I don't want to give up my garden just yet. The green peppers are still have flowers on them but the cold weather is going to kill them if I don't do anything for it. So I decided to scoop the plant carefully and transfer it to the pot that way I could bring inside and put them by the window. I hope that I could still get fruits from it.

fence installation

Posted by Malou at 9/23/2008 10:29:00 PM 0 comments
It's amazing these days. So many different kinds of fences wood ones, vinyl ones, steel ones. Being that it's an outside cosmetic addition you have to make sure that the fence installation is done correctly. Today's experts used line levels, dry lines, and spinning laser levels with the installation. On top of that sometimes they have to redo the grade of the land that needs the fence. It's a lot of work that should be left to the specialist.

peanut butter and jelly

Posted by Malou at 9/23/2008 10:13:00 PM 3 comments
I never thought that you can combine peanut butter and jelly as a sandwich. First time I've seen my husband eat it I was so amazed because I never tried it way back when I was in the Philippines. Peanut butter alone is the best sandwich for me but when I tried PBJ I found out that I really liked it. I had a PBJ again tonight as a snack. So funny when I realized that PBJ is common here in the states. (lol)

It's clean up time

Daddy and Maddy finally decided to get rid of Maddy's old toys that she have from when she was little. We were suppose to give the toys to Lily, our grand daughter but she had a lot of toys already. So we put all the toys in the box and drop it to salvation army to donate. So glad Maddy's room was cleaned up for more space to play.

get ready for winter

Posted by Malou at 9/23/2008 08:37:00 AM 0 comments
My first step to get ready for winter is to prepare our winter clothes. So I cleaned up our closet and dig for our winter clothes,jackets, coats, boots, gloves in preparation for winter. The clothes , jackets and coats were washed and cleaned before they were kept last year but since it's sitting there for a long period of time, somehow a little dust and smell linger on them. I finally took them all out and decided to put them in the wash tomorrow. Better do it earlier than waiting 'till the last minute.

Not ripe for picking

Posted by Malou at 9/22/2008 09:14:00 PM 4 comments
I don't know what happened to our tomatoe plant. Until now the tomatoe fruits were not ripe yet and sometimes frost came in the morning and I'm afraid that frost might kill the plant so I decided to pick them up and hope that maybe by doing it it will ripen somehow. And we also heard from other people that most of their tomatoes didn't ripen either.

online auto insurance quotes

Posted by Malou at 9/22/2008 03:07:00 PM 0 comments
If money is so tight you can't imagine saving two bucks a month on paying for your auto insurance. We have two vehicles but my husband has been paying for two even if the other one on the garage wasn't used on the road. He only used it for few occasions last year and in the mean time we are stuck on paying for it. We decided to cancel the insurance since we rarely used it anymore and will serve as a back up vehicle and look for a better online auto insurance quotes to save us some money. We also decided that it would definitely make a difference when we do that.

water ring removal

Posted by Malou at 9/22/2008 02:46:00 PM 0 comments
How do you make your coffee? I like it very hot and with one teaspoon of sugar on a cup, a teaspoon of cream, and 3/4 teaspoon of instant coffee. Although its easy to make it, the water that runs through the coffee maker leave white hard water ring inside the coffee maker glass. How to clean it is not a big deal to me. Just pour two cups of water inside the coffee maker and add vinegar enough to fill the glass with warm water along with the vinegar mixed in it as it go down into the glass. Leave it for few minutes then let the vinegar work its magic to it. Use non abrasive scrub pad to get at any bits that haven't dissolve. Then rinse well with water. You'll see magic that will happen to your coffee maker. It's like brand new again.

Turbocharge your ride!!

Posted by Malou at 9/22/2008 01:07:00 PM 0 comments
My husband liked to upgrade his Isuzu vehicross ironman triathlon edition truck and somehow putting in some additional gadget on its speed. Pretty much understandable for the kind of sports truck that he had. It's only once in a blue moon that he find this special edition truck. Sometimes I tease him by saying "it's all about the truck". Now we know where to get turbochargers. Even if you need vw turbo you can easily find it online and the good news is any other model you look for they have your unit in stock.

Here comes the train

Posted by Malou at 9/22/2008 12:15:00 PM 0 comments
Jessica's house is close to the railroad. One time when we were at their house for a visit Jarred started out running in the front yard while pulling daddy outdoors to watch the coming train. He gets so excited seeing the train coming. He even raised his arms and said "toot" "toot" and wave to the train until it's gone which is so funny. The most precious moment to see. So on his birthday Daddy bought him a toy train but wasn't satisfied because the one's that he wanted to give him wasn't there. Finally, when they were shopping yesterday for Jarred's cousins birthday gift daddy spotted a remote controlled toy train and was so ecstatic to pay for it on the counter. That's for our little boy he said. Jarred couldn't get himself settled until daddy assembled it for him. Jarred's so happy. It's the late birthday gift for our little boy. Giving daddy a big hug for saying thank you daddy.

Wittley

Posted by Malou at 9/21/2008 07:57:00 PM 0 comments
My husband had seen it about ten years ago but they wanted a lot of money for this new to market talking little bear like creature. So price wise he couldn't afford it but years went by and he spotted Wittley at wal-mart discounted to $85.00 so he was his, if in fact he is a he. Who knows?! Wittley has a separate activity slate that you can push buttons and make up different stories along with games. He then recites the stories back to you in his voice along with turning his head blinking his eyes in incredible facial expressions. It's fun to watch the children looking at Wittley not knowing whether he is for real and if he is, is he a good creature or bad? He seems fun but maybe a little too real and that's so unexpected of a stuffed creature.
