For a seafarer…

Jody — Fri, 27 Aug 2010 16:18:52 +0000

Never realized that as a seaman, a longshoreman or even just a harbor worker of shipyard worker, they are entitled to rights when injured or even get sick while on board their vessels. I should mention it to relatives who are seafarers. I recently met a Jones Act lawyer through an acquittance. We had a little chat over coffee as he explains to me his job. He has been helping a number of seamen and their families in getting proper compensations and settlements after their maritime claims. He is currently in the country to help a family of a very good friend.

Well-spent weekend…

It was a well-spent weekend with the family. Two days of just plain fun of being together, eating, watching TV/DVD and even played some board games and outdoor games like badminton. Kids went swimming this morning. Read a book and heard mass too.

Now back home and tired already. Husband and kids are now sound asleep.

Looking forward to a brand new week. Good thing, I got recharged. It’s a busy coming week.

Hope everyone had a great weekend too.

Gaming Online

Every fantasy you have ever had could be fulfilled with fun games like Heist Online, or Jewel Quest, where you have the opportunity to be the craven looter or the police officer you’ve always wanted to be! Online games allow you to live a rich fantasy life, and meet new people from across the globe who share your interests. For these reasons, online gaming has become exponentially more popular each year.

Allow yourself to spend a few hours on a planet where aliens use humans as fuel and you are the only one who can save the race. Envision yourself as a brain-hungry zombie that wants to consume the remaining population of healthy people. You could be the zombie one day, and the zombie hunter the next, playing great games like Plants vs. Zombies! Online games are so much fun that you may never want to leave home, again!

If you enjoy action-packed films like Sherlock Holmes, then you will love games like Midnight Mysteries — The Edgar Allan Poe Conspiracy. Whatever your interests are, there are games that will enchant you on great online game sites. Even the nerdiest types can find games like BookWorm Deluxe to keep them entertained on those long, boring summer days.

More typical games, like Vegas Solitaire, can provide everyone a new venue for an old pleasure. Play the classics like Chess, Mah Jong, and word scramble games, without ever leaving home. The greatest part of playing games online is that you needn’t invite over a houseful of friends to enjoy a variety of players: you can simply log-on and play your favorite games with strangers. Or, if you prefer, you can arrange to meet your friends on a website to play games together. So, whether you enjoy new games, or the classics your grandparents know, you can find entertainment and fun online!

Happy Mother’s Day!

To me and all the great moms I know!

To my mother, I am so blessed to have you!

To my mother-in-law, you are the best that I could have!

To all my “mommy” friends, cheers for our wonderful role on this world!

Long Weekend!

Jody — Wed, 28 Apr 2010 12:02:59 +0000

Yipee! It is long weekend again this coming week and next week again. May 3 declared as non-working holiday in lieu of the labor day celebration of May 1. And next week, it would be another long weekend since it is already election day. Speaking of election day, have you guys decided on who to vote? I think we should really take time to review the credentials and the characters of these candidates. And as for the automated voting system, let’s give it a chance. Let’s not be too negative yet about it and just pray that everything would work well without any flaws. Our country doesn’t need any negativism at this time. Let’s ask for God’s guidance for our people to vote wisely. Let’s pray for our nation.

The agencies involved have actually made necessary precautions anyway. My husband’s company is one of the telecommunications provider for COMELEC. In fact, he would also be on-call duty all throughout that day. Let us also pray for everyone’s safety.

Today’s monday…

Jody — Mon, 26 Apr 2010 14:18:22 +0000

is so busy but I still haven’t finished like half of the things I would have to do. It’s always crazy during mondays. With tons of emails to answer, lots of follow ups for the next upcoming event and some other personal errands to do. The husband is also bugging to do a couple of things for him. Hmm, I’m like his secretary. Like, he wants me to review insurances. Thanks to a site where I can just get multiple term life insurance rates and quotes by just inputting our desired coverage amount and term. Now, I am one task done for him. Got few more errands to do for him tomorrow. What a job!

Have you decided?

Jody — Sat, 03 Apr 2010 04:40:13 +0000

With just few weeks before the national election, have you decided on who to vote? Candidates are all geared up with their campaigns. There are debate forums also being organized to look into the profiles of the candidates. I find some of the candidate’s answers in forums questionable and debatable. I wonder if we could create a local platform like the doesthiscount site just for the Philippine election, lol! It is were posts are meant to be succinct, humorous and thought-provoking. Well most comments are intended to enable a real conversation. Usually votes settle the debate. But as for me, I am actually more concerned about the candidates profiles and plans for the country. I have my own picks already.

Craving for this…

Jody — Mon, 29 Mar 2010 04:12:42 +0000

It is freaking hot! And I so want this. Selecta Gold Berry Strawberry. Too bad, we don’t have any ice cream in the fridge at this time. I guess I need to hit the groceries later. But should I just forego as my lenten sacrifice for the week? I think it would be a good idea though. I hope I can resist temptation, lol!

Jumping Shots…

Jody — Sat, 16 Jan 2010 17:42:07 +0000

Never do I go for any destination without the famous “jumping shots!” It’s my favorite actually. In fact, I lost another 5lbs after a number of takes. It’s indeed a good option for quick trim extreme burn. We just did some jumping shots while in Thunderbird Resorts. It’s hard to perfect it sometime that all of you would have to be up in the air but I was able to take two nice shots…

New Year Renovation…

Jody — Thu, 31 Dec 2009 06:40:00 +0000

My parents would renovate their house next year because they were badly hit by the recent storms that touched the country. They would replace their bathrooms including the existing faucets and sinks. Told my mom to just use Toto sink since it has been proven to be a good brand. It would be costly to renovate but it is really needed. But anyway, we look forward for a better house for them.
