It’s Saturday once again, time to relax and enjoy the day. Good thing I’m done with my chores yesterday, thanks to the two hour brown out. I find a good reason to get up and fix the house. That means I have more time to spend with hubby today who suggested watching some movies.
But, we can’t find a good movie showing today. So, we decided to just buy an ice cream and go home. After enjoying the yummy treats, we instantly check the web and our blogs. One of the things I search is about gold investment.
I’ve heard gold futures are on the rise these days. They say gold prices are benefiting from the weakness of the dollar since the dollar and gold have always moved inversely to each other so it is no surprise that gold is doing so well in this economy. I guess it is the best time to buy gold bars if this is the case.
Another fact is that gold set for an April delivery rose $5.10 or 0.5%, settling at $1,142.70 an ounce. Gold is reaching the 2010 high which was set on January 11th when gold closed at $1,151.40. We may just see gold reach a new high for 2010 in the coming days.
Nowadays, news about celebrity going to rehab is no longer a new thing especially for those who are really in demand. Actually, it is not just celebrities who are victimized by addiction; almost all people are at risk of this one. Neighbors, relatives and even our family member can get into trouble at any given time. Why would that be? Well, it is so easy to acquire addicting products in the market nowadays given that you have ample amount of money to pay for it. Even if people know that it will harm them in the long run, the thought of using such products make them feel good outweighs their ability to think clearly. That is why lots of people go to rehab these days.
Anyway, speaking of rehab I found this Passages Malibu center when I was checking something in my friendster account. They offer a unique approach to holistic drug and alcohol abuse recovery in which they treat the underlying cause of addiction and is located in Malibu, CA. Since they are giving high level of treatment and privacy many celebrities who became an addict attended Passages Malibu. Of course, we will keep their names private because that is a very personal thing.
Like most people who like celebrities, I instantly checked the Passages Malibu blog to know if there are updates about certain actors and actresses who attend the service. But, it site is still under construction. And, I also figured out that if they have celebrity patients this time, they won’t bother to pose about it. It is such a silly thing for me to think. Well, I guess I’ll just have to rely on celebrity news online and other gossip shows to know the latest buzz about the stars.
Yehey!!! It’s local holiday, meaning no workday. It also means I have all the time in the world to do whatever I want to do. Let’s see I can check my emails, update this blog, play my favorite FB games, watch some movies, and nap any time of the day, chat with some friends, surf the web and play some games again. Hahaha Just happy household chores isn’t part of the plan.
Anyway, as I was surfing the net, I found this interesting article about the benefits of economic crisis. It is, it is an opportunity for people to lose weight. Why? Since there is scarcity of money, then we have less amount of money to buy things. So, experts figured it out that when people buy less food, or buy cheaper, healthier products, it would ensure losing weight in the long run.
Well, I guess it is right because if I can’t find any food in the fridge, I don’t have any choice, but to drink some water to fill up my stomach. By the way I am way slimmer than I used to be. That’s why I am trying to buy less food as compared before. That way I don’t only save money, I also get smaller belly. But, when I can’t take it anymore, I just cheat on it by going to restaurants. Hehehe
Gosh, it’s already Saturday. I thought I can take some rest. But, guess what I have to do lots of laundry and cleaning. Good thing I can still find time to update this blog. Well, I just thought it is my responsibility to post something here because I have been away for quite some time.
Anyway, I just hope I’ll be able to finish everything before the day ends. I am sure I’ll take at least one day off from work and blogging. And, I intend to do that tomorrow. Well, that’s all for now. See you again next time.
I guess I mentioned it before that I planned to transform my little garden where I will make a small pond. Well, thankfully that didn’t happen. I realized there are lots of things to do and to buy just like a pond skimmer, filters and pumps. It’s not that I don’t like it, but buying those items now is impractical. Why? We just change our mind.
We have a new plan that is hubby is planning to go abroad while I return to my parents. We are not really separating because we no longer like each other. It is due to financial reasons. He will look for a better job and I will just follow after he settles. That means both of us will leave the house. Then, what will happen to the pond when we are gone. The new renters or the owner will benefit from it, not us.
So, I am thankful I don’t have the money at the time I finalize my pond plan, or else I was able to buy it. But, that doesn’t mean I let go of the idea because I certainly won’t do that. I’ll just postpone it for now and wait for the right time.
Woooo… I think this is very interesting because it would greatly affect my relationship to hubby if this is true. It’s better sharing it with you.
According to Telegraph, the only thing we should keep in mind, to have a perfect marriage, is that the woman must be younger by 5 years and smarter than her partner in order for their marriage to work. They say this is the recipe the Geneva School of Business has come up with.
Though this theory is not new, a study conducted on over 1,000 subjects come to prove that, indeed, in order for marriage to work there has to be an age and IQ gap between wife and husband, with the scales tipped in her favor on both counts. Another prerequisite is that both partners should come from the same background, otherwise differences will only exacerbate in time and lead to the dissolution of the marriage, researchers believe.
“The academic study, published in the European Journal of Operational Research looked at 1,074 couples aged between 19 and 75 years, to find which social factors were most important to a long and happy relationship. Besides the man being five years older than his bride, and that his bride should share the same heritage, they concluded that a wife should be at least 27 per cent more intelligent than her husband. She should also hold a degree, while he should not. Perhaps unsurprisingly, the academics found that marrying a divorcee reduced the chance of wedded bliss,” the Telegraph says of the findings of the study.
Of course, there are also those who say that, while factors like age, IQ and background inevitably take their toll on the relationship and the institution of marriage, it’s hard to predict the chances of a relationship based on them alone, especially when it can fail even if they are met. Good thing they say that.

You are sometimes wary of strangers, but you open open completely to the people you trust.You can be surprisingly playful and fun loving. Goofing off is one of your favorite pastimes. But when you need to be counted on, you step right up. You’re always willing to work hard or defend your pack.

These past few months, I have been feeling depressed over our situation. I am used to having hubby helped me in our daily needs. But, when he begins his training, the situation starts to get shaky; couple that to the pressure of our huge debts from his surgery last December to his sister, who keeps on collecting payments.
Almost every day I want to cry as I get too tired doing everything. I know hubby wants to help me, but his schedule doesn’t permit him. I don’t know how to raise huge amount of money to pay for everything. Good thing I was able to get through that stage. Although we still have debts, I no longer feel too sad or depressed.
Anyway, since we are still struggling to pay our debts. We thought about venturing into vending machines business. I think it is the perfect business as it is a 100% cash business. It also allows me to continue with my life because I can set my own hours for this one. Other than that, I no longer need to worry about paying additional employees salary, rent for an office or additional utilities fees, and advertising. Vending machines do their own advertising.
It is indeed a sound business venture. And I am excited to learn more about it.
We all need to wind up once in a while as this will help rejuvenate our energy and senses. A long vacation or a simple weekend rv get away will do. However, there are times that a supposedly happy and memorable trip ends up to be a real disaster.
No matter how we try to prepare for that trip, there are instances that emergencies such as lost of items, getting sick or hurt, ran out of cash, and many more may arise. When this happens, it will just increase the stress that we intend to reduce. Also, there is a risk of overspending from the emergency.
That is the reason it is logical to have emergency assistance membership other than insurance. This is a very valuable especially during a crisis. It will ensure proper medical evacuation, return of traveling companion assistance, lost items assistance, worldwide medical information and so much more. It only implies that having it on hand will make you feel better even if there is emergency.
