One of our goals this year is to save. I promised myself that I will never buy big ticket items unless I have this certain amount of money in the bank. I do hope we can accomplish that. But there are just too many expenses, schooling is one of them. We really have to find better ways to invest our hard-earned money so we can secure the future of our family. One of investment options I learned from usgoldbureau.com is to buy gold coins. Most especially now that gold prices are on the rise with the weakening of the dollar. I still have much to learn about this but the site has various articles on investing in gold as well their recommendations. You can even get in touch with their metal specialist so you can learn more about this investment option.

Looking forward to a relaxing summer vacation. And a more orderly home.

I never run out of things to accomplish, especially now that school is about to end and DS is going to celebrate his birthday. I do have several plans for his special day, I don’t know if I can make them all happen.
I need to have his food ordered, Jollibee as he requested. For his cake, I’ll just buy a regular cake then maybe just put some fancy candles on top. Of course, I need to have the lootbags prepared. Three of his classmates are going to have parties, too so I need to shop for their gifts, as well.
The house is a bit of a mess. I am not that bothered as I might just do a general cleaning come summer vacation. I still have one or two big items to dispose. Now, where can I find a big vehicle to transport these items somewhere.
Then I need to looking into social security disability insurance for an elderly relative abroad. I am not so familiar with this one. Good thing I came across Allsup. They offer a free, no obligation social security disability evaluation so we might take advantage of this. They have a 98% success rate in getting benefits so I believe this is a good choice.
We had a fairly busy week last week. Next week will be a bit as busy, too. So many things to do. But I do like being busy.

I think I would love to have a similar house.

That’s one of my projects come summer vacation. Our poor plants badly need so much attention. Plus I will be getting new indoor plants for the house. I also plan to replace our plants in front of our house, but that will all depend on DH as he will mostly be doing the harder stuff. I will do the transferring of plants as I think I have a green thumb. That’s only my opinion.
We might get some composters products too. I want to make good use of our kitchen scraps and waste. I know this will make the soil and even the plants healthier. Thanks to NaturalEnviro.com, they have everything that I need.

I am. We had our lunch at Sonya’s Garden as a post-Valentine’s treat from DH. We were supposed to eat there last Valentine’s but the traffic was terribly heavy, we decided to move it to another date. We were free today so off we went to Silang. I have been eating quite a lot lately, I am afraid I might gain back all the pounds that I lost. But I won’t let it happen. I have slimquick extreme to the rescue. A good friend of mine swears by it so I know this one’s good.

I love these framed artworks. I love how the homeowner displayed her kids’ artworks. I have been wanting to display my son’s works and I have always been on the lookout for creative ways to do it. I like this one as she made it look like an actual piece of art that can be placed anywhere around the house. I just need to find similar white, simple frames. I will be looking for barcode scanner tomorrow when I go to the mall. I might as well look for frames, as well.
