Not so easy move

Wednesday, November 5th, 2008

A friend of mine who is working in New York City is looking for a reputable New York Moving Company. With the economic slump, she is currently considering moving to a city where the cost of living is lower than that of New York. She still has her work but she can request their office to transfer her to another state where there is another company office. I hope that her move will be easy for her. She’s been living in New York for the past six years now. It will be hard to leave the city that easily but then she has a family here in the country that she needs to consider whenever she receives her paycheck.

Event for all

Friday, October 31st, 2008

I know for a fact that when moms go to a party, they would want their kids with them. They would want to be able to bring their kids and all of them will have fun together. I have been around enough mothers to know this for a fact. So when my sister told me about the Los Angeles Company Picnic that she heard from her friend, I just know I found the best event that I can recommend to a client of mine.

According to the information I gathered, Event Solutions is the company behind the LA and Orange County Company Picnic. The company is well-versed when it comes to organizing events that will bring adults and kids together. They can organize a whole event for you from scratch. No need to lift a finger. All you have to do is tell them what your specifications are and they will take care of everything. Do you need to send out flyers for your event? They can do that for you as well.

You might be in need of an event planner for this coming Thanksgiving celebrations. Or for your company team building. Go ahead and get the services of EventSolutions.com, your Los Angeles Event Planning provider.

The natural way

Monday, October 27th, 2008

We went to SM North Edsa last Friday to watch HSM3 (more of this in my next post). We went to Watson’s and we noticed that their pharmacy section is filled with weight loss products. Xenical is the most prominent product that you can see. Has any one tried this product yet? My aunt tried it for a week and it was effective. She stopped it because of the effect it has on her. LBM. She goes to work and comes home really late so the LBM is a big hassle for her. She is actually encouraging me to try it because I work at home. But I would like to try it the natural way first.

Body massages

Monday, October 27th, 2008

I am looking at the brochure my sister gave me. It’s a brochure of the spa that we both like to go to. There are different types of massage packages, facials, body scrubs, body wraps, pimple and even acne treatments. My sister promised that she will treat me to a whole body massage and body scrub. It’s her post birthday gift to me. Yey!

I enjoy full body massages. It eases the tension in my body and an aromatherapy massage helps in blood circulation if I am not mistaken. When I was still working, I make sure I get a massage at least once every two months. But now that I am working at home, I wait for my sister to treat me to one :)

Sigh of relief

Monday, October 27th, 2008

My grandmother asked me to go to her place because she had something to tell me. I expected the worse because she was so serious on the phone. My grandma has diabetes and she was recently plagued by flu. When I got to talk to her, I heaved a huge sigh of relief. She just wants me to pay her home insurance. It reminded me to check on ours. Sure enough, I need to pay ours as well. That would mean I’m off to do errands tomorrow.

Tech-related

Monday, October 27th, 2008

I love gadgets. But I can’t really say that I am a techie person because I only know mobile phones and computers. I can read and understand a manual for an equipment and other gadgets but if you would be asking for a pro, that I am not. If you ask me about a mobile router, I will refer you to my cousin who knows more about it than I do. If you ask me about external hard drives, that I know a lot about. But mostly, I would be referring you to my cousin who is a fountain of information regarding anything tech-related.

Audio books

Monday, October 27th, 2008

To those who are close to me as well as to my regular readers, they all know how much I love books. I read everyday. I read before I go to sleep. It relaxes me and it brings me to a whole new world all of my own. Reading takes away my worries even for a few hours.

Another thing that I also love are free audio books. When I don’t feel like reading but I want to relax, I listen to some audio books that I have. My favorite is Judith McNaught’s Perfect.

Street food

Monday, October 27th, 2008

Our neighbor is selling street food in their garage. My siblings and I love it! We hardly eat street food but when we know that it’s “clean”, we do buy some. And because it’s just across our house, you can just imagine how many we consume in a day! It just feels like summer when you eat street foods. If you haven’t tried a palamig yet, I suggest you do. Yay! We need some alli here!

HSM mania at home

Monday, October 27th, 2008

My sisters and the little girl here at home is watching High School Musical 1 and 2. It’s a marathon! The Disney Channel is showing the 2 HSM movies with the Dance Along in between. I cannot concentrate on working because my eyes keep on straying to the tv. The songs of both movies are really catchy and I find myself singing it with the little girl hehe… Now, I have to check out pulse oximeter first otherwise I won’t get through with all of my pending to-dos.

Prepared?

Monday, October 27th, 2008

It’s a few more weeks and it’s Christmas time! Are you all prepared for it? Or are you like me who is just waiting for the second week of November to hit before I push the prepare button? I was able to talk to my former staff and they have been preparing as early as July for their holiday giveaways. Since their companies are also affected by the global crisis, they have opted for promotional pens to give away. Well, pens are practical and useful. It will be a great thing to give.

Web hosting geek

Sunday, October 26th, 2008

Are you a web hosting geek? Do you know every little thing there is to know about web hosting? Well, if you are still in the early stages of getting your own web hosting plan, I suggest you head on over to Web Hosting Geeks!

A friend of mine is thinking of getting her own web hosting plan already. She has a couple of blogs like me and she wants to try wordpress for a change. But she has no time to learn all the nitty gritty of a cpanel and every little thing that goes with owning her own web host. I told her that I can recommend Bluehost since I already have experience using it for quite a while now. But she has to read the web hosting reviews at Web Hosting Geeks just to make sure that she has other choices and I just did not sway her with my suggestion. I do not want to be blamed if she did not like Bluehost because I suggested it. I want her to choose Bluehost because she read at Web Hosting Geeks that it is their Editor’s Choice Hosting and it got a 97% rating from the experts.

There are also short web hosting articles that my friend can read to be able to learn more. I can easily help her with the transition from Blogger to Wordpress. That would be easy. I can even do everything for her. But I still want her to be able to say that she made the right choice with the web host first.

There are other great web hosting services as well. If you go to Web Hosting Geeks, you will find that their number one choice is Inmotion followed closely by Bluehost then HostingPad, Hostmonster and Yahoo. You can read about the different features offered by each web host. Know more. Read the reviews.
