There is something which I had wanted to do but have been procrastinating for over 3 years. Ever since I lost some of the data from my blogs 3 years ago, I vowed that I had to have a proper data backup plan. I was approached by a data backup company in the US who were very helpful to me but I had forgotten all about it when Baby was born and my life has since been on the fast lane. Now that I remember again, I must move my butt and check up websites like www.databackup.net to find out more about data backup plans. Do you backup your blogs?

I used to buy branded clothing, bags and shoes when I was still employed and earning a very comfortable salary. I had a Ferragamo handbag which cost over RM2k, a pair of Ferragamo shoes which cost over RM1k, a Longines watch, 2 wardrobes bursting with expensive office attire, prada sunglasses and a glass display filled with expensive perfumes. Ever since I left the corporate world, I only buy clothes and bags that are on cheap sale. Now that I run my own online store, I only wear clothes that I sell which are bought at very low prices from my suppliers. And I realized that branded stuff does not matter to me anymore. I am happy wearing cheap but nice clothes, shoes and bags.

I was telling my friend that I have not painted my toe nails and finger nails for over 9 years! From the moment I decided I wanted to have a baby, I tried to avoid having contact with chemicals. Then when my babies were born, I could not afford the time to paint my nails, up until now! During my pregnancies, I had acne on my face but I stayed away from topical pimple creams. I had read that pimple creams have chemicals that may cause birth defects. I have also read that Topamax, a medication to treat migraine headaches can cause birth defects like cleft lip or cleft palate.

A friend of mine recently quit her job to be a SAHM to her only child, a 3-year old boy. However, after a month, she felt pretty bored at home. She told me that she intends to take up some online degree programs to fulfill her wish of obtaining a degree. It’s tough being a SAHM and to study at the same time, she would really need to juggle and prioritize her time very well. I don’t think I can ever study and be a SAHM at the same time. This would really stress me out mentally and physically.

A young female office worker fell onto the tracks from an after-office hour sardine-packed commuter train. Another oncoming train was just minutes away behind the young lady and she lay unconscious on the tracks, bleeding profusely on her head. A stranger saw the lady and without thinking of his own safety jumped down from the moving train to save the lady. Though he was slightly injured in the jump, he summoned all his courage and strength to pull the lady away from the tracks. When the lady was conscious, she and her fiancé thanked the stranger profusely for unselfishly saving her life. If not for him, her family would probably have to engage a FELA Railroad Injury and Train Accident Lawyer. This real-life story that I read from my favorite magazine this morning has touched me. May God bless this young man’s heart.

My hubs recently bought me a Blackberry so that I can check my emails and reply my customers while I am on the go. Having a mobile phone with WiFi is so convenient and useful for a WFHM like me. However, I find the Blackberry screen a tad small and I often go dizzy if I spend too long a time checking my emails using the Blackberry. I should have asked my hubs to get me an android mobile phone like the htc desire hd which comes with a wide and high resolution screen. I think I will have to wait until my next birthday for him to get me such an expensive gadget.

My first pregnancy was plagued with pregnancy related discomforts that affected me from head to toe. I had zits on my face and body, a pregnancy tumor on my gums which was really huge and caused massive bleeding each time I brushed my teeth, heart burn, severe vomiting for the first 12 weeks, spotting, a sensitive uterus, vaginal yeast infection, threatened prematured labor, among others. I was on semi bed rest for the first 12 weeks and last 1 month of my pregnancy. Despite all the discomforts that I had, I was very adamant that I should not consume any medication to treat the symptoms. My dream was to have a beautiful and healthy baby and my dream was granted.

If you are pregnant, you must be very careful with what you eat, especially with oral meds. Topamax is one drug that has adverse side effects on the unborn child. Topamax taken during pregnancy can result in cleft lip. If you have a baby born with cleft lip and you suspect that it could have been caused by Topomax that you consumed during your pregnancy, you can seek a Topamax birthdefect lawsuit to help you get a compensation.

What would you do if you have a 6-year old daughter who loves to dawdle every morning before she leaves the house for school, dawdle before she goes just about anywhere, tampers with your thinning patience everyday with her disobedience, provokes you with her constant whining and screaming and refuses to do her homework? I have one at home and I am at a total lost. I wonder how she will fare when she enters primary one next year. Will she be able to cope with the tough academic syllabus of a Chinese school? My hubby always tells me to take it easy with our #2 and not to pressure his precious one too much *rolls eyes* Oh well, whatever. I’ll bet his precious, who is a vain-pot will pester him to send her to a glam beauty school like Crystal Lake beauty school 10 years down the road to pursue her interest in this field. Who know, perhaps she will excel in the arena of cosmetics and coiffuring and will turn out just fine.

I woke up at 5am today. Though I am severely sleep deprived, some how the mind and body just could not rest in peace, though in sleeping mode, knowing that there is lots of work to be completed. Sometimes I can just sit in front of my desktop PC and stare at the words on the screen for 5 minutes but nothing comes out of my brain. Like now, I am staring at the words columbus jobs but those ideas just won’t flow out and I need to rack my brain to get those ideas out. I definitely need my half hour run outside now to jumpstart my brain!

For the past 1 month, my girls, my mil and I have been ditching the elevator for the flight of stairs.  On days when we are not in a hurry to go to school, ballet class or tuition class, we will all use the stairs instead of the elevator.  Sometimes when I am feeling a tad lazy and about to press the button for the elevator, my girls will remind me to walk up using the stairs.  We live on the 5th floor and the level is just perfect for us to use the stairs.  On some nights after a heavy dinner at a restaurant, we will also climb up the stairs to burn off some calories.  It is also a very effective way to teach Baby numbers.  On every floor that we stop at, I point to the number on the wall.    If I add up the calories I burn from stairs climbing for a week, it is enough to burn off that ice cream treat I reward myself once or twice a week!
