Ideas To Scrap

When scrapbooking either in digital or paper form, people often concentrate on major events and happenings of life like birthdays, Christmas, vacations, etc.  It would also be nice to scrap even those equally important but less celebrated moments in life like your project on how to lose belly fat fast, your first treat or expense using your first ever paycheck, or even your dog’s first ever learned trick.  This is what crafters like about scrapbooking because you can preserve memories and turn even those less significant moments to cherishing and lasting ones.

On Drunk Driving

Drunk driving is very dangerous and shouldn’t be tried at all.  Especially if you’re driving with passengers who are your friends, family members or with anyone, not only you’re putting your life to risk but theirs as well.  Sadly, many still do not take this warning seriously and they still drink and drive.  The statistics involved in drunk driving from around the world is very alarming.  Even though there are Houston DWI lawyers who would be ready to assist when you’re charged with DWI, it’s always best to stay in the safe side.  Do not ever attempt because regretting in the end is the worst feeling.

Not Missing

Last week, I was able to claim 2 out of 4 Photobooks I ordered from Artscow more than a month ago.  I’ve been frantically waiting for them two weeks ago since most of my friends who ordered the same time as I did got their orders already.  And so I thought, mine were missing.  Then finally, I received the parcel notice for the 2 remaining unclaimed Photobooks last Friday. So they’re not really missing after all and it’s safe to conclude that our city postal office is just “slow” in accounting the deliveries and in dispatching the parcel notices.  Well, probably, there’s really a ton of parcels and packages that were delivered recently but I believe, a 2-week delay is too much.  I guess, a phentermine diet pill takes effect even faster than how their manual process go.  I wonder when will they computerize the parcel receiving system.

What To Do?

So many things to do, so little time.  And it’s not easy rushing all things up especially when you’re ailing and uncomfortable.  At the moment, I just want to laze around and nurse this discomforting feeling but at the same time I’m torn between finishing my gazillion writing tasks, majority are due on Thursday and taking advantage of the Artscow Thanksgiving promo which will end tomorrow.  So what to do first? Looks like I need to stock up with under eye cream for dark circles with the volume of deliverables that I have.

The ABC’s of Gold

The demand for gold exceeds the amount of its production, making it one of the most lucrative ways in investing your money. Gold can be purchased in coin or ingot form, or in gold bars, and these can be safely stored in a safety deposit box and sold when the time is right, or made into smaller pieces and sold individually. Another thing that makes gold such a great investment is that its value never depreciates. You are always assured of the market value of gold and should the need arise for you to sell them, you’ll always get more than what you paid for initially.

The Secret Key

As fitness experts say, discipline, exercise and good diet are the secret to lose weight and get rid of stomach fat fast.  So in a nutshell, no matter how dead set you are and promise a gazillion times to diet but you don’t have control on the buffet table and just keep on procrastinating, you remain with an unsightly body.  The truth hurts.  But that’s the way it is.  No one could help yourself but you.

Eyes Wide Open

It must be the tall sized Starbucks Praline Mocha courtesy of the husband that’s keeping my eyes wide right now as I finish my deadline nearing deliverables.  We will be out the whole day later so here I am rushing things so I don’t have to worry about these anymore.  I usually feel so sleepy by this hour but as I’ve said, the frapuccino I drank must be effectively stimulating me now.  I might be even needing the best sleep aid later when I have to sleep.  But on a second thought, if I take that, I might end up waking up late which can screw up our Saturday plans.  So might as well resort to counting sheep if I find hard to sleep later on.

Gold Bullions and the US Gold Bureau

The best place to buy gold bullion is the US Gold Bureau. For people looking into investing in this precious metal, dealing with them is the best choice. With your purchase, they can make arrangements for the safe storage of your gold bullions or ingots in a safety deposit box. They have also been in the industry for a very long time and are the most popular authority when it comes to investing in gold.

What’s great about the US Gold Bureau is that your transaction with them does not end the moment you finalize your deal and make your payment. In fact, that is only the beginning. They will explain to you the ins and outs of investing in gold, and will make sure all of your needs regarding your purchase are met.

Christmas Gifts For Him

The husband has just left me a message over at YM.  He informed me that his mobile phone is automatically shutting off to which I replied “hmmm, it seems it’s asking for a replacement already, huh?'’.  He didn’t reply…and silence means yes most of the time, right?

Anyway, I’m still pooling my resources and hopefully, I can come up with a budget come December.  Perhaps, it’ll be my anniversary gift for him.  As for my Christmas present, I haven’t decided yet.  Thankfully, there’s www.redenvelope.com to help me through this task.  I found a whole page that wholly features “Christmas Gifts For Him”.  So among the choices, here are some of my top picks.

Shopping Affordable Health Insurance

How I wish shopping for clothes can be as easy as browsing for affordable health insurance online.  Many insurance companies have now implored high tech means of showing their health plans in an easy to browse, convenient method.  I could say that shopping for health insurance plans is easier because albeit wide, the selection is well presented and is comprehensive.  All details and factors are explained in details.  Unlike for clothes, shopping online is difficult because you don’t know if it fits you good since no fitting is done.  It will leave you clueless and you won’t know until you actually receive the item and try it on.

Mesothelioma Symptoms

If you’ve worked for a company that used asbestos as one of its primary industrial product and if you’re feeling any or several of the following symptoms, chances are you might be sick with Mesothelioma.

  • Chest wall pain
  • Shortness of breath
  • Fatigue or anemia
  • Wheezing, hoarseness, or cough
  • Pleural effusion
  • Blood in the sputum
  • Abdominal pain
  • Problems with bowel function
  • Weight loss
  • Yellowing of the eyes and skin
  • Low blood sugar level

It is strongly advised to go see your doctor for immediate evaluation and treatment.  As it could have been acquired from employment, it is best recommended to go consult and seek the assistance of a Houston asbestos lawyer from Heard Robins Cloud & Black.  They’ve got the best and highly skilled attorneys specializing in mesothelioma case handling.  Not only they will guide you on the steps but they will make sure that you get the claims that is due to you.

Artscow Parcel Notices

Finally, I got the parcel notice I’ve been waiting for from the Postal Office.  This is for the Artscow orders I placed last month.  But I’m wondering why there’s only one when I’m expecting 4 notices.  Hope the others are not misplaced and they’ll also be delivered soon.  I really am excited to see up close the 4 photo books I got hooked on creating last month.  Hope it’ll inspire me to create more and for me to take advantage of the numerous Artscow coupon codes I have.

Anticipating DSD

Happening this weekend is the Digital Scrapbooking Day, the most awaited event in the digiscrapping world.  So by now, hobbyists and artists are surely anticipating all the huge sales, freebies, contests and festivities happening this weekend.  A lot of my digiscrapper friends in Twitter have in fact been discussing, sharing notes and enabling each other to shop in their favorite digiscrapping stores.  I’m not sure yet if I’m going to shop but probably, I’ll just be on standby with all the freebies that the designers will generously give.  I’m on the lookout for pirate-themed kit complete with gold bullion, treasure chests and Captain Hook elements for a collection of party photos I’ve been wishing to scrap.  Speaking of gold and precious metals, check out the new Rare Gold Coins, Modern Gold Coins, Pre-33 Gold Coins, Modern Platinum Coins and Bullion bars and coins in silver, gold and platinum that the United States Gold Bureau are offering for sale at competitive prices.

Merry Christmas Quick Pages from Scrapbookgraphics

If I have a few moolah to spare, I’d definitely get this Christmas Quickpages and clusters from Studio Natali of Scrapbookgraphics.  Not only that they’re lovely and elegant but they’d make it easier for me to scrap because I only just have to plop my photos and voila, an instant Christmas layout!  A bunch of easy layouts will mean an easy designing task and ordering of Photobook, too, at Artscow.

Thanksgiving Kits

With Thanksgiving (in the US) approaching, I’m sure that many digiscrappers out there will be busy scouring for nice Autumn and Thanksgiving themed kits for this upcoming event aside from dressing up their homes putting out their country feel slipcovers.  To make the task easier, here are some nice newly released kits that would surely be one of the top purchased digital goodies in time of the Thanksgiving day. 

Seeing these kits and elements make me itch to scrap.  Let’s see.  Provided that work will continue to be lax in the next coming days, I’ll try to awaken the sleeping mojos I’ve tamed over the months.

She’s Slimmer Now

I went out last weekend to meet a friend I haven't seen for several months now. I think the last time I saw her was last February during her fiance’s birthday party.  I remember her telling me that she’s working on trimming down her weight fast so that she’d look slim and sexy in her wedding gown as she walk down the aisle next month. 

So almost a year of not seeing her, I was really shocked to see how big the changes are in her body.  No wonder she keeps on insisting on meeting up before her wedding to show me her new look. She used to look big and bulky but now she looks really fit.  When I interviewed her, she said that she’s been using hcg drops. She started taking it just a few months ago and the effects are indeed noticeable.

HCG drops work by taking in 10 drops of hcg, thirty minutes prior to every meal for three times a day. After taking in the drops, hold all drops in your throat before swallowing. On the first two day, you would need to eat a lot and then start a 500 calorie diet on the third day. Stop the drops on the 21st day but still maintain the 500 calorie diet til the 22nd. After that you can already eat anything except those with starch and sugar. This is what constitutes the hcg diet.  Just remember to drink water for at least 2 liters a day throughout the whole diet process. HCG seems to have really worked on my friend. She said now she can wear anything she likes and look sexy in it.  She also mentioned that one can easily order and buy hcg online through trusted online sellers.  All in all, it also takes discipline and determination before one can achieve her desired body built and weight.

Gold Coin Wonder

I have always wondered how a gold coin looks like and how you can use them for investment. In search for the answers to my questions, I came upon the United States Gold Bureau. This company allows you to invest in gold coins and bullions. Unlike other investments, gold coins provide you with an assurance that your investment will not go to waste. Other investments like the ones that are in the stock market, may change its value depending on economic changes. Gold coins on the other hand increase in value as time passes by. Investing in gold coins is a smart way in making your money grow.

Photo Overload

I was offline for most days of the past week because of the Halloween activities and other festivities we’ve busied ourselves.  That means I’ve got tons of photos to upload and hopefully, scrap them or if time still doesn’t permit, plop them in easy to make Artscow photobook templates.  I’ve started uploading them though to Facebook in response to the incessant “demand” of some people (hehe).  Flickr is next…hopefully, really soon because it also serves as my backup storage.  Seeing some photos of me make me want to book a pampering facial session and get an acne scar removal treament.  Nope, I don’t have much but just the same, I don’t want them to get worse so preventing them early is a smart way to go, right?

Still With The Wish List

Almost 24 hours later since the online exchange gift with my Twitter pals was initiated/started and here I am, still clueless what to write down on my wish list.  If only I can include a bag similar to Rebecca Minkoff handbags (specifically this one below) then I wouldn’t have been wracking my nerves up to this moment. 

bagBut alas, even with the discounted price of $357, it’s way beyond our $35 set budget.  My secret santa might withdraw her participation in the online exchange gift and I’d end up receiving nothing.
