I asked my brother yesterday to drive us to the EENT doctor in Urdaneta to have hubby's ears checked. He was complaining that he can't hear that good. My neighbor had recommended his doctor so that's where we went. My brother and his daughter waited inside the car while we were in the doctor's office. Vernice was not with us this time because she's in her grandparents' house. The doctor found out that both of hubby's ears have built up wax in it so he gave him ear drops and after 3 days we will go back to him. Hubby also asked him to check his eyes because he has cataracts and the doctor said both of hubby's eyes don't have cataracts. The doctor in Texas told hubby otherwise. The doctor said hubby must have eye infection because he always felt a burning sensation in both eyes. So he gave hubby an eye drop. We were thankful that hubby have no cataracts, praise God! We paid the doctor a total of Php1,000 equivalent to $25 only.
We then went to eat lunch at Chic-Boy just beside Magic Mall. It's a newly opened restaurant in the city. It was our first time to dine in that restaurant. I noticed that there were lots of people dining there. They must have been tired eating in the same food court inside the mall wherein they have the same foods and their rice were so pricey, P20 per serving compared to Chic-Boy's P10 per serving. I ordered sinigang na salmon with rice, hubby got chicken lechon with rice. pork barbeque for my brother and breaded chicken for my niece. They serve free bowl of soup to all their customers and on top of that, they serve unlimited rice to the customers if they order value meals. Hubby tasted faith's breaded chicken and he said he like it better than his chicken lechon. I told him next time I will get 2 orders of the same meal for him, lol!
The sinigang na salmon had too much soup and it's sour to me. I like my sinigang better. They can't even beat my brother Celso's sinigang. Next time I would like to taste their sinigang na bangus.

Lunch at Point and Grill
Yesterday, hubby and I asked my youngest brother to drive for us to SM Rosales. It's been a while since we went there. I also have to pay our internet bill which I forgot to do when we went to CB Mall last time. So of we went with Vernice in tow. We stopped by in Wesleyan, Urdaneta because my brother had to settle something first. We had the chance to talk to our pastor friends there which we haven't visited in a long time.
Then we proceeded to our destination. First thing we did is to have some photos printed to be sent to my sis-in-law in Texas. Then we went to pay our internet bill. It took me a while to wait because there were a few customers who were paying. After I paid we went to eat lunch at Point and Grill restaurant. That restaurant had many customers. It's a good thing we found a vacant table. We dined there before and it was our third time to dine there. I ordered pinakbet with fried bangus, hubby got roasted beef with veggies, fried tuna fillets with veggies for Vernice and my brother got pork barbeque and veggies. For drinks we ordered iced tea and I a strawberry shake for me.
While waiting on the foods to be served, we took some photos. When the served our foods, we ate with our hearts' delight. The foods were great. Vernice love the pork barbeque which he asked from my brother. He didn't eat her foods so we ate it. No wonder the restaurant got lots of customers. Their foods were delicious and the price is very affordable. They got lots of selections too. For the four of us, I only paid Php550.00. Not bad. For sure we will dine there again next time.

Building A Baby Room
With the new addition of a little one to your lives it is time to think about the future. It is easy to get caught up in the current moment and forget how much this means for the upcoming years. You’ll be trading the crib for a set of bunk beds for kids sooner than you think so start researching now.
Hunting for the best looking bunk beds for kids can almost become like a hobby but we need to always keep sight of what is most important. Is the furniture you are buying safe? Just because they are bunk beds for kids does not mean that they are safe for every kid. What age is the set of bunk beds suggested for? You need to check these things before you make a purchase. Make use of the internet and customer reviews to answer your questions of safety and design. You should make sure that what you are buying is safe and appropriate for the age of your child.
To save some money, ask your family if they have anything that they might want to part with that would be helpful. You will be surprised how many people have sets of bunk beds for kids stowed away in their garages that they don’t even remember they bought. This is a great way to get furniture with a good track record and from someone you trust who has firsthand experience with each piece.
Never be afraid to ask questions. This is the safety and comfort of our child so there are no stupid questions. The big three are the safety of materials, safety of design and age appropriateness. You don’t want to end up with a set of bunk beds for kids that are painted with a toxic finish and will fall apart in a month, do you?
At The Mall
Hubby and I together with Vernice went to the mall yesterday to buy some groceries and also to pay our internet bill. We went out late morning so when we arrived there it was already lunch time. I asked hubby where he wanted to eat because we already ate in all the restaurants there. I asked him if wanted to eat at KFC but that's outside the mall and he said it's too hot to go out and walk there. I already got tired eating at Shakeys so we ended up eating at Panaderia Antonio restaurant again. That's our nth time to eat there. Hubby ordered his favorite grilled Poloslab chicken breast with rice and veggies. I got spaghetti with fried chicken and toasted bread for Vernice and I got solo burger for me. I also ordered mango shake for me and Vernice and a soda for hubby. The foods tasted so good. I helped Vernice ate her foods, lol!
Then we went to the grocery store. We spent more than Ph3,000 just for the groceries. It's easy to spend money but it's hard to earn it. We went out of the mall and headed home. When we were on the road, I suddenly remembered that I forgot to pay our internet bill. I wanted hubby to go back but he said we'll go back there some other time. By the way, while we were in the mall, Vernice went to peeh thrice, lol!

In The Mail
Thanks for the post, Arthur Lawrence
I hate junk mail. My husband and I get so much of it at our house that we have had to install a trash compactor in our kitchen just to cut down on the amount of trash we have each week. However, my husband actually paid some attention to our junk mail the other day and I am really glad he did. We always get a lot of coupons and I never have time to look at them. In the mail from yesterday, my husband found a flyer for home security in Virginia. We have been talking about getting a security system for our home, so my husband decided to check it out. It made me realize that I should pay more attention to the advertisements we get in the mail. I would probably end up saving some money for our family, especially at restaurants. We actually do not go out to dinner very often anymore because it is so expensive. Maybe if I found some restaurant coupons in the mail every once in a while, it would make it more affordable and we could treat ourselves at least once a week.
Need To Exercise
I noticed lately that I gained a few pounds. I was trying some of my clothes and I noticed my belly became bigger and also my arms and legs. I think I started to gained weight after a few weeks of drinking Anlene milk. I don't drink milk before except when I eat my cereals and it's not an everyday thing. The reason I started to drink milk every morning is because of my arthritis. After a few weeks of drinking Anlene I felt relieve from the arthritis pain but then it made me gained weight. I need to do something about it.
Yesterday, I started to exercise using my orbit track again. I was on it for 32 minutes. I bought it a year ago but I only use it once in a while. Laziness sets in that's why. I have also a stationary bike but it's just there in our room waiting on me to ride it which only happens once in a while too, lol! I need to have the determination to exercise on a regular basis to be able to shed off those excess pounds from my body. I want to stay trim and healthy. Exercise Lisa, go, go, go!
