May your hair, your teeth, your face-lift, your abs and your stocks not fall; and may your blood pressure, your triglycerides, your cholesterol, your white blood count and your mortgage interest not rise.
May you get a clean bill of health from your dentist, your cardiologist, your urologist, your proctologist, your podiatrist, your psychiatrist and your plumber.
May what you see in the mirror delight you, and what others see in you delight them. May someone love you enough to forgive your faults, be blind to your blemishes, and tell the world about your virtues.
May New Year's Eve find you seated around the table, together with your beloved family and cherished friends. May you find the food better, the environment quieter, the cost much cheaper, and the pleasure much more fulfilling than anything else you might ordinarily do that night.
May the telemarketers wait to make their sales calls until you finish dinner, may the commercials on TV not be louder than the program you have been watching, and may your check book and your budget balance - and include generous amounts for charity.
May you remember to say "I love you" at least once a day to your spouse, your child, your parent, your siblings; but not to your secretary, your nurse, your masseuse, your hairdresser or your tennis instructor.
Happy New Year to ONE & ALL!
Blessed New Year to All!!

Making it works
I mentioned in my previous post that a friend of mine recently bought a mini restaurant. Unfortunately it didn't last long. She didn't have the proper restaurant equipment to properly store food. She had to do her marketing on a daily basis. This totally drain her out and she decided to sell it after less than 2 months in the business. She was making money. Her food was delicious. She just didn't have the guts to see it through.
What's on your list?
I honestly can't imagine people going on camping every week during the summer months. A friend of mine is actually making camping plans for the summer already and made some bookings already. Now that's getting ahead of time.
I tried it once, and I kind of like it. I could probably try this once or twice a year, but not more than that. Unless somebody got an RV that I could use. My friend was trying to convince to look at RV loans and get myself an RV so we could go camping with them all summer long. I don't think so! That is definitely not on my priority list.

Medical Info
Do you know anybody with spinal or chronic back pain problems? Well, they might need what we call the Minimally Invasive Spine Institute. It is simply a procedure requiring a small incision of less than 1.5cm, hence the "minimally invasive" term. It is also known as laparoscopic surgery or band-aid surgery. This will result in less trauma for the patient and it also allows doctors to guide instruments along the length of the lumbar spine, diagnosing and treating problems in real time.
Greetings!
TO ALL OF YOU!!!
May you and you family have a
wonderful and blessed Christmas! Cheers!
Collector of coins
My line of work as pre-board screener can be interesting at the same time frustrating. Frustrating in the way that sometimes passengers just don't realize that what we are doing are for the public safety and that they are the one flying not us.
Interesting because we get to see a lot of interesting stuff and meet interesting people. The other day, the bag was way too dark and dense that we couldn't really identify the stuff that's in it. And when that happens, we are require to look into it. This gentlemen is a collector. He buy gold coins online from Golden Eagle. These coins were all organized in a glass case. Really cool collection. Unfortunately, it is unethical for us to inquire about the value of it.
Time for giving
Are you all done with your Christmas shopping? You got 2 more days till Christmas! I got almost everybody except for my husband. I just don't know what to get him this year.
I find it so easy to shop for my goddaughter presents. There's just too many things that are so adorable and affordable that will make little girls happy. From clothes to toys to accessories.
I find it hard to buy presents for teenagers and adults. Nice things comes with a price.
Presents in small packaging
I just sent a box home and I am so glad that it arrived in time for Christmas. I just find it hard to fill up the box since it is 20x20x20 and irregardless of the weight, or if it's full or not, I will still pay the same price for shipping.
In January though, my husband will be going home for his dad's 75th birthday, and since the airlines are restricting the number of free luggage and limit the weight per luggage, I thought it will be a good idea to buy citizen watch for my father-in-law. It's on sale and they are small and easy to pack. I'm still looking for my brother-in-law and sister-in-law.
For welders out there
From farmers to metal fabricators, manufacturing plants to home mechanics and hobbyists, there's definitely a Millermatic that you can use and will easily fit into your application and budget. It gives you the ultimate arc performance, and also the power to weld thick metals. It can also pulsed MIG to weld thin-gauge aluminum. And the flexibility take it with you on location. Do your job better with the proper equipment and tools!
Desktops at it's cheapest
When I first bought my desktop, I paid so much $$$ for it. And after 2-3 years, I had to either upgrade or buy new hard drive, and that's additional $$.
These days though, PC desktops are at it's cheapest. Imagine owning one for only $400+. Students can easily afford this!
A family of 5 went through my line the other day and I can't believe what I saw. Each kid got their own laptops. Both parents got a laptop and an Ipad each too. There is no sharing in this family for sure.
Are you editing your photos?
You know, I follow a lot of memes - like Wordless Wednesday, Outdoor Wednesday, SkyWatch and all those on my sidebar. I am always fascinated at how beautiful their photos are. Like they were all taken by pros. Little did I know that most of them do a lot of photo editing before publishing their photos.
Well, in this blog, what you see is how I took it. I do some cropping to remove unwanted extras in my photos, but that's it.
I took some classes on photography, and I just never had the time to really learn the manual mode of my SLR. I also took Photoshop course, and am fascinated at how much a photo can improve with Photoshop. But I just don't have the time to do any editing. And I think I have forgotten how to use Photoshop.
Do you do any photo editing???
Fashionable maternity clothings
My pregnant friend is getting prettier by the day. She won the best dress in our Christmas party two Fridays ago. And it was a unanimous vote. I remember years back when I was pregnant, it was so hard for me to look for a decent maternity dress. These days though maternity clothes are very fashionable. From jeans to tops to dresses to skirts, one can never look bad.

Pleasure listening
My husband and I have different point of view when it comes to sounds. Her prefers to have a PA system where he can hear the powerful sound of the music or dramatic effects of a movie.
To me, as long as I can hear the song or the dialogs, then I am okay with it. I mean, I know there is a difference, but to me, they are all the same. I couldn't care less for the brand and no matter how expensive or inexpensive it is.

My Legoland adventure continues... I am truly amazed at how real these looks.
