To wallow over what happened to the domain the hubby recently claimed and paid for is not really going to help. The site is technically his, but he never was able to access. Bummer. A case of maybe lesson learned the hard way? Maybe.

 

This has got the both of us go around all across the web looking for web hosting tutorials. One of which is WebHostingRating.com. They have such easy to understand lessons that even a noob could actually dig. What actually got me into browsing through their site is the independent customer rating that they have of ten of the top web hosting companies. Read the rest of this entry »

Seriously, I never meant to go on hiatus. There were just a handful of maintenance issues I had to deal with in three other blogs that I author. On my way to being webmaster extraordinaire? Hardly. It’s just that it was the first time in several months that I was actually able to tweak those Blogger sites that I have. In all my previous attempts, I never failed to receive all those nasty bx errors. I really just had to take advantage while I can, who knows when those bx errors would come back to bug me again. I had to unclutter my sites while I still can. :-)

 

Total makeover. Care to swing by these sites? Simply click on the screenshots.

Another shot of the hubby’s - definitely one of my favorites. You see how he played with the curves of the structure on that simple playground? No photoshop needed for this one, thank you. This is one of his first few shots when our now oldie camera was brand new. There probably were a couple of cat trees behind that slide that he managed to hide without having to displace them.

Lately, the hubby has been busy tweaking at least a couple of his sites. Too bad for me because for some reason I kept getting those bx errors in my every single tweaking attempt for as long as I can remember. That is until this afternoon. I was so thrilled to finally dress up my sites with the very layouts that I want. Meanwhile, after having tweaked two of my sites, I just thought I’d take a break and have the last site done tomorrow instead.

This is what I came up with as I was having my break. Read the rest of this entry »

Tomorrow is one of our dear friend’s birthday. I am going to load up tonight and give her a call. She left for SG almost a year ago.  The last time she was here was last May and won’t be back until October of this year. The little time that we spent with her in a condo hotel when she was here was just not enough. Happy birthday Ana! We love you and our prayers are with you despite our distance. You always bloom wherever the Lord plants you and we have always been proud of you. God bless you more! :D

These two are definitely unstoppable when they do their thing.  They wrestle and go rough like crazy and when they’re at it, there is just no way they would cease, that is until a gentle reminder to the hubby of about five times that it’s almost bed time and the little guy needs to transition to sleep mode - his quiet bunny mode.  All mothers know how hard it is for an overly stimulated child to hit the sack when it’s time. My boys and one of their many fun moments together.  :D

I am so thrilled to have been able to create this slideshow via Roxio online . This is the first time ever. I’m no pro and I know it’s not much, I still have got a lot of things to learn. I did not even experiment on the captions, but using this online slideshow maker is so easy. I got to choose my music background, theme and have the presentation look like it was done by a pro. The best part about it is it’s free. :D

 

The photos from the slideshow are from our December 8, 2001 wedding. How time flies, we will be married seven years before the year ends. Now that I see how easy it is to create this kind of slideshow, it won’t take awhile until I do a couple more especially that of our little guy’s milestones. I have tons of photos and now I could put all those to good use. ;-)

Okay, so I tried and tried, but the hubby just have so many excuses not to drink my sweet potato tops iced tea/juice, at least not more than half of a glass a day. I figured I should be calling it iced tea, because the procedure in doing the concoction is really more of making tea. But then again, I also poured in calamansi juice, so maybe I could call it either.

 

With the sweet potato tops juice, it always ends up getting consumed by me and my sis. But with this lemongrass concoction that I made yesterday, it was a different story. The hubby actually asked for a second glass and kind of complained when our little guy drank up the last glass of the batch. I failed to take a picture of the actual juice. It definitely was hotter than pancakes (although it’s actually ice cold). They drank it all up before I was able to grab the cam. ;-)

Another shot of the hubby’s. He took this while he, along with the team, was waiting to board the plane. You must have noticed by now that I really can’t go wordless most of the time. Thus these words. The next photo in queue is that of the take home gift he gave to our son. It’s one of those Cebu Pacific’s toy plane that he bought from a flight attendant while they were aboard. It was so easy to mistake it as one of those promotional items because of the brand and all. That’s up and coming…

Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things. Philippians 4:8

Sure there are a lot of worries I could very well dwell on, but I choose to look at these wonderful things:

  • Lord, thank you that everyday I receive good reports from the girls that I disciple, despite their struggles. It took us a while to get where we are and it makes my heart glad that most of them are doing better at dealing with things. Read the rest of this entry »

A one night event is set to happen on August 21st. If you are familiar with Supersize Me, which tackles some significant concerns in America, you would look forward to I.O.U.S.A..

Iousa_poster08_femk_219

A live broadcast on selected theaters nationwide brought to you by Fathom Events and Roadside Attractions is coming up on that one night. This documentary will bring in notable financial leaders and policy experts Warren Buffett, Pete Peterson and Dave Walker and talk about some of America’s economic concerns that the people of the nation currently face. Moderation of the panel will be done by no other than Becky Quick, CNBC’s morning news anchor.

 

As I go around the blogosphere, there are a handful of issues people of America is coming up with. Issues of recession, debts, income deficit and other critical economic concerns, expect all these to be discussed live by the panel. I am sure a lot of people are looking forward to watching this event even as this will have them look at the reality that faces the nation. Will America still be the land of milk and honey for long? Or has it lost its title a long time ago, given the fact that the nation clearly spends more than they earn in taxes, thus the deficit. Even Reuters suggested of this documentary: “May be to the U.S. Economy what An Inconvenient Truth was to the environment.” Prepare to know the truth of America’s real economic standing as you watch this.

Another shot of the hubby’s many attempts at photography. He took this while they were aboard, in transit to Palawan. I still have got much to learn in grabbing this kind of compositions. I tend to carelessly snap shots of everything I fancy, not thinking much how aperture and shutter speed should be set for a particular shot. I’m learning even as I would have him critic the shots that I take. ;-)

I don’t know about you but my little guy and I loved the web premier of the sproutwells that we first saw last week. We actually have to search for more episodes via YouTube. It was a thrill especially for my little guy when we viewed its sequel where their little dog who they named Phyto came into the picture.

 

You could have guessed that I would choose Ruby Red as my favorite character in a heartbeat, the vegetable fashionista character. While my son loves Phyto. This dog character is as restless as he is! lol! :D Enjoy as you watch this clip and maybe even share the link to friends.

The number seven item of my previous Friday-Fill Ins entry reads that I was anticipating a movie time with the hubby Friday night and a date the night after. Well, both did not happen. He was so tired when he got home Friday. He had to to go to our church in Makati and another church in Novaliches to return the sound systems that were used in their last mission’s trip to Palawan. Saturday wasn’t a good time as well. There were just lots of things that needed to be done.

 

So here’s what we did. Read the rest of this entry »
