Sleeping Problems


Sometimes I have trouble going to sleep at night. It all started when I gave birth to Fifi, she would wake me up at strange hours to get fed and that messed up my sleep clock. I would sometimes wake-up and not be able to go back to sleep. It is very annoying because I have to be up all day to take care of her and it just makes me feel like I am a walking zombie during the day.

I son't wanna take prescription sleep medications so I serched for natural sleep aids online. I found a lot of it but there is one site that caught my attention. They offer a full 100% money back guarantee if I am not satisfied and all their products are natural. Meaning no chemicals or drugs added to it. I am definitely gonna try their product and I hope that it would give me the sleep I so deperately needed at night.

Learning How To Save Energy


Energy saving is very important especially now that everything costs a lot. Our electric bill went up two years ago because of the high gas prices. When we checked our energy bill, we found out that our bill now is almost double the bill we have five years ago. We have the same home appliances that we have five years ago, same home energy usage, yet we're paying more this time. So I searched for ways to help me save energy. I found this very helpful site that gives you all kinds of tips and even gives you an energy data report about your house.

I filled-up some basin informations like the area where I live and they were able to give an estimate of how much I spend in my electrci bill a year. They even have all kinds of recommendations on how to help me save energy. Some of the few tricks is to lower down the setting in my water heater... Duhh.. That seems very practical yet I never thought of it. I also found out that insulating our pipes and our water heater would help us save in the long-run. I have to do that to lower down our electric bill.

If you want to save money by lowering down your electric bill, try to visit microsoft-hohm.com and set up your free account. You will learn all kinds of energy-saving tips like I did. WE never know that simple ways we never thought could help us save energy are beneficial when added up altogether. I might end up paying half of what I am usually paying now.

Spring!


Today marks the first day of spring and I am excited as ever! I can't wait to plant some flowers in our window boxes. I already purchased some fertilized soil and some seeds at walmart to plant when it's warm enough. For right now, the weather is still a little crazy and some days, it's still chilly.

I could not wait to see some leaves in the trees and flowers around me again. A world full of color is way better than a dull world of brown and white.

Stress Reliever


As a mom of two, I am constantly on the edge everyday. Taking care of my kids and my husband is not an easy job. Having a very active infant does not help a bit. Especially now that she's walking, I have to follow her all over to make sure she don't get into things that would hurt her. Taking care of my husband is also not easy. He's the one who brings home the bacon, so to say, so I make sure that he gets pampered when he's at home.

The stress level I feel every now and then is to the maximum level that I would do stuff that are proven stress relievers . I do yoga every now and then with meditation. I also pray when I feel like I am about to explode. I would treat myself to a relaxing warm bath every night so I could wake-up the next day feeling refreshed.

My job as a mom and wife is pretty stressful but at the end of the day, when everything's all said and done, I would look at my family and I would never trade them for anything. Even if it's a less-stressful life.

Bedroom Furniture


When our house got flooded, most of our furnitures got water damage. Good thing we had a good flood insurance, we were able to get enough money to pay for a new set of bedroom furnitures. We found a solid, Ashley Furniture set at Sam's for a good deal and so we hurried and rented a truck at  a one way truck rentals near Sam's.

We brought the furniture home and dropped off the truck we rented at a rental area near us. It was convenient and we are now enjoying the furniture everytime we go to sleep.

Asthma Problem


We brought Fifi to her pediatrician because she was coughing for days now. They gave her some samples of nebulizers and asthma medicines. I hope she will get better soon and hopefully she won't be dependent with her asthma medicine forever.
