I got this beautiful flowers delivered from our neighbor last night. The person who delivered these beautiful flowers said that she is going to Pares today. That is why she was delivering these beautiful flowers to our neighborhoods last night because she ganna be gone for half month and she is nervous that if she don't give the flowers to our neighborhoods early this month. She will not able to share any flowers this year. She cut her beautiful flowers in her yard and share to her neighbors. And everybody appreciate specially me the flowers that she give has very good smell.  I love it.

Environment design

As our kids have grown older, it has become more difficult to identify furniture that is sturdy enough to withstand their tough use. A couple of years ago we purchased a wooden table and chair set that we thought was pretty strong and well made, but the chairs have been nearly destroyed. Lately, I have been thinking about educational furniture that is used in schools. My idea is that school furniture must be durable because it is able to withstand many generations of kids before a replacement is required. Hopefully, it would also be strong enough for regular use by our kids.

The most popular holiday destination in the Philippines

My friend is now having great time with her family in boracay beach in the Philippines. On her email she this morning she said that this is the last day in Boracay beach and tomorrow they are going to my home town in Biliran Island to see her parents and brothers sisters. She said that she would take some pictures with my brothers and sister when she has time or if they come to her parent's house. She did not send any pictures or upload to her facebook account I wonder what happen to her camera. It's probably nothing happen to her camera since she did not mention about her camera I guess she don't want to share any pictures of her vacation right now. Oh! Will I am just excited to see their photos.

anticipate

We visited my in-laws in Memphis last month and we anticipate that we may return in a few weeks. While we were there, we spent some time at the home of my husband's childhood friends. I was a little surprised that he smoked cigars inside his house. I know a few smokers here in the US, but it seems like many of them are reluctant to smoke indoors when both husband and wife are not smokers. Anyway, his smoke of choice was Black and Mild. According to my husband, his friend has smoked them since he was in his early 20s. However, he has cut down a lot in recent years.

Happy Mothers day

I wish all mommy are enjoying their day today.

Ensuring my vehicle

It seems like it was just yesterday that I completed my driver's test and obtained my US driver's license. Now, I am relatively comfortable driving my truck. I like the fact that it is so much bigger than many of the vehicles on the road, which helps me to feel more secure. As I do not drive it very often, I want to do everything that I can to maintain it and keep it looking good. It sits in my garage a lot and collects dust from outdoors, so I have been looking at covers for trucks. I think a good cover would help protect the paint job and keep me from having to wash it so often.

springtime colors

Spring flowers.
The weather in the Washington, DC area has been amazingly pleasant during the past few weeks. The daytime highs have ranged from the upper 60s through the low 70s, while the overnight lows have averaged around 50 degrees. The weather has been great for our utility bill because there has been almost no need for heating or cooling our home. It has also been a great time for outdoor activities. We have been doing a lot of yard work lately. I love the. The beauty and renewal of spring was something that I did not experience in my homeland of the Philippines, where it is warm all year.
