It's raining "birthdays"!

Yesterday was my hubby's 30th birthday, my sister Zereth's 11th birthday today and my mom's 51st birthday tomorrow! It's indeed raining "birthdays" this month of JUNE for our clan.

My hands are so full since our class started this month that I don't even managed to greet my hubby in blogosphere. If last year we're able to organize a surprise birthday party for my hubby with my friends, this year is different. My hubby just wanted to spend his natal day in a very simple way with me and Hyzyd. We dined in Black Canyon Coffee with salmon steak and Black Canyon's Special beef Steak. Day before his birthday, my hubby already warned me not to spend lavishly for his birthday especially that we're still on tight budget, we're saving for our "visit Philippines" project and I'm on diet (LOL!). I thought his birthday could be my way out to eat all I can! I was wrong! It seems that it's my hubby who's more determined to see me on my old slim and sleek figure than me.LOL! Anyway, I'm grateful for that. I'm hoping to see a slimmer version of me in the near future.

My gift for him? The unique gifts I've been planning to buy for him is not materialized yet but I will as soon as I get hold of our budget*grin* coz as what 'mama Mia" commented, I should buy those to make the both of us happier...LOL! I will let him choose his gift tonight if we're not tired. We'll visit Diana Mall. It's better to let him choose his gift so that he'll be more satisfied and contented with my gift to him.

As for my sister, I ordered a coin purse for her with her photos and my birthday greetings for her but my order doesn't arrived yet. I plan to order online a Greenwich meal package for my mom's birthday but I'm late already. I should order this 10 days before her birthday...tsk...tsk...so I don't have other choice but just to send the money intended for her birthday. It's what I did eversince but this year I plan to make some changes and surprises but I'm late for that so I'll make it up to her next year. I'll just send over mail the customized cosmetic bag I ordered for her.

It's my prayer that the birthday celebrants will always be happy not only on their special day but all the days of their life. They may always be loaded with God's blessings in every aspect of their lives.


I love you dear!

Happy birthday dear sis Zereth and to you mama!

I'm a WINNER!

Since I started joining raffle contest here in blogosphere last February 2009, I kept on winning and winning (maybe I'll make a list here for the sake of record and just as a remembrance to myself ). For this month, I won the The Beautiful Creatures Children’s Songs of Africa CD by Ed Jordan and Alan Grass . It is composed of 10 songs about God's beautiful creatures found on the African continent. Thanks for Mom Chris of Mommy Journey for hosting this giveaway. I really enjoy the songs as well as my Hyzyd.

Am I truly blessed or it's just simply a stroke of luck? Today another giveaway of Mom Chris on her other blog Inspirational Insights which just turned a year this month announced me as the one who bagged the first prize (winners were chosen via random.org)! I'm jumping with joy earlier this morning when I peeked Mom Chris' blog. Here's what at stake for the first prize winner:

1st Place
Seiko's Diary - $30
Topics on Earth - $10
SAHM Hosting - INFO Domain with Free Blog Hosting

I can't help but praise God for these unexpected blessings. I'm truly overwhelmed with God's goodness.

Fabulous at 30's

I'm on my last year of being in 20's and next year will be the start of my life in 30's. There are so many things I started to consider especially with my beauty regimen. I don't usually pay too much attention with my looks. In fact, I could go to school with just a puff of powder and a lip gloss. I haven't used any moisturizer, toner or cream for a year! Maybe this time I need to add anti-aging creams with my beauty regimen and add gluthathione to my list of hot, hyped health supplements. The strong antioxidant effect of glutathione helps keep cells running smoothly. It also helps the liver remove chemicals that are foreign to the body, such as drugs and pollutants.

If gluthathiones is a strong antioxidant , I found out that there's a super antioxidant in the form of ERGOTHIONEINE or ERGO. Advancing Oxidative Stress Technology Oxis International, Inc. (OTCBB: OXIS) is the premiere provider for the potent antioxidant, Ergothioneine and through their patented synthetic manufacturing process remains the only significant commercial source of pure l-ergothioneine worldwide.

Some of the potential benefits of ERGO include its ability to:

* Conserve and maintain the levels of other antioxidants such as Vitamin E, Vitamin C and glutathione;
* Increase respiration and the oxidation of fat (possibly contributing to increased energy and exercise capacity);
* Protect mitochondria from damage (this is important because potentially damaging reactive oxygen species are generated when oxygen is normally metabolized in mitochondria,
* Reduce the damaging effects of environmental ultraviolet radiation (likely to be important in protecting the eyes against cataract producing oxidative injury);
* Neutralize increased oxidative stress by providing an ROS (reactive oxygen species) and RNS (reactive nitrogen species) scavenging capacity, a property that protects key molecules in the body; and,
*Protect against the effects of neurotoxins that are believed to have a casual role in the development and progression of cognitive decline.




You can visit http://www.oxis.com for more facts about OXIS company. You can also follow Oxis on Twitter and Oxis on facebook.

I really desire to stay fabulously young even at age of 30's.
