Last Saturday I have the high fever that shakes my whole body. I lost my appetite and my head was aching. The fever strikes again last night and this morning we went to the hospital for a check-up. Since I came here I only have a gynecologist and do not have any medical doctor I did not got sick. Maybe because I take care of myself but because of busy online and offline life I am vulnerable of getting sick. So this is it I am sick and always laying in bed but i tried to post an update here since my head now is aching. I got some medicines to take two tablets ever six hours. What I realize is we really take good care of ourselves because our body is not a metal that cannot have any disease or pain. We always careful and needs to eat healthy foods, get some rest, and put aside those stress stuff. May you have a wonderful day. Take care and God bless.
Fever, Cough, And Cold Kick In
It has been a long time that I got sick. Since last three months my cold and cough are still here maybe it is from the cold. But yesterday morning I felt terrible because my have a high fever. My whole body was shaking and I felt very cold. I ask hubby that we are going home since we are in a play area where our son can play with the kids.I cannot understand what I felt and I thank God after few hours I felt a little better. While I am typing i am still not feeling better. My head is aching and i am still coughing and have the cold. I hope I feel better soon. I will tell you why I got sick:* lack of sleep
* stress
* over fatigue
* lack of exercise
* forgot sometimes to eat and many more reasons. If you do not want to get sick do not do what i just did because you will get sick. You need to get your sleep 6-8 hours, then exercise, need to eat in proper time, work hard but do not overdo yourself, and you need to control those stress stuff. I just do not want you to get sick that is why i tell you this. Ok i feel dizzy better see have a wonderful day my friends.

Party Rentals
My son's birthday is coming and we are not doing any party because of some reasons. We have plans to give him some fun and i will bake a cake for him, cook some food to it and hubby will also cook some of my favorite recipes. I just remember last year when we attended a birthday party of a Filipino who lives close to our house. They invited a lot of people and we have so much fun. The kids are playing outside their house with those big water slides. My son did not really enjoyed just like other kids because he just very young compared to the kids out there. My friends can afford to have those water slide rentals for the kids. I can imagine how big it was and how much will it cost to rent one. Well, if you are one who are preparing for a party and do not know yet where to find some stuff you need then you should go to inflatableadventures.com because they can help you to have those party rentals. No worries to set up because they are the one who will do all the work needed for the party. The corporate events like birthday party, graduation, or any events then energizedevents.com can help.

I Lost An Internet Connection
Yesterday afternoon while watching a movie with my son the power went off and the computer did not recover from it. I turn on the cable of the internet but it seems i cannot fix it. I called hubby how to do the fixing but he told me that he will be the one who will look at it and investigates what really happened. I am bored and trying to make some blog layouts that my friends ordered. I finished some but I cannot install it to their blog because I do not have the internet connection. I did not even finished my EC dropping and I really apologize for that. You do not know what is beyond so i am not prepared for not having an internet connection. Anyway the connection came back when hubby fix it last night.

Psalm 23
A psalm of David.
The LORD is my shepherd, I shall not be in want.
He makes me lie down in green pastures,
he leads me beside quiet waters,
he restores my soul.
He guides me in paths of righteousness
for his name's sake.
Even though I walk
through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil,
for you are with me;
your rod and your staff,
they comfort me.
You prepare a table before me
in the presence of my enemies.
You anoint my head with oil;
my cup overflows.
Surely goodness and love will follow me
all the days of my life,
and I will dwell in the house of the LORD
forever.

How To Say Thank You With Style
How did you express how thankful you are to somebody? I read an article from lifescript about this styles and this gives me a thought of doing so often. I have so many people that need to give thanks but I did not know how to express it. Before I met my hubby I am shy to say thank you to somebody but now that we are already almost four years of being a marriage couple oh boy I learned a lot. Hubby cannot forget to say thank you in many ways. One time he will come to me and say thank you for everything and kiss, sometimes he will take me to a restaurant for a treat because he is very thankful to me. I do not know how many times he will many things just to say thank you. I know you can also tell me what are the gestures or styles of your hubby, boyfriend, friend, parents or anybody. Now here are some more tips that I learned and wanted to share it to you.The Basic Thank-You Note or Letter
From the extensive collection of thank-you cards most stores carry to the vast array of business etiquette courses, there is little doubt that knowing how to send a proper thank-you note or letter is important.
A verbal thanks is appropriate when someone gives you a common courtesy or gesture. A written thanks is appropriate when someone goes out of his or her way to give you a gift, service or time. Even if you are able to thank the gift-giver in person – at a wedding, birthday party or job interview, for instance – you should still follow up with a written thank you.
A thank-you note doesn’t have to be formal or “right.” It simply needs to express your thanks. But if you would like a few guidelines to follow, here are a few key steps:
The Salutation – Always start with a personal salutation. Simply writing “Dear Contributor” or “Dear Guest” is never appropriate. Always name the recipient personally, with “Dear Jane” for a personal acquaintance or “Dear Ms. Jones” if the letter is for business.
The First Line – Next, write a first line that expresses the gratitude in a simple, heartfelt way: “Thank you for the plant in the homemade container,” “Thank you for taking me to the doctor’s office,” or “Thank you for your contribution to our company” are all appropriate first lines. Keep it short and simple, but make it clear that you understand all that the person did for you. For instance, if the generosity included not only a scarf for your new coat, but the time invested in knitting it for you, include this in your first line.
If the thank you is for money, you do not need to mention the specific amount, but you can simply say, “Thank you for your kindness” or “Thank you for your generosity.”
The Second Line – The second line of the thank you should expound briefly on how the gift will be used: “We plan to use your contribution to our company for furnishing our new lobby,” or “I have already set your handmade container on my window sill where I can see it each day.” Even if you didn’t care for the gift, find something good to say about it. If the gift is money, your second line should explain how you plan to spend it, but you can keep this brief. For instance, “We plan to use the money for a new appliance for our apartment” will make the gift-giver feel that he or she contributed something thoroughly appreciated.
The Third Line – Your third line can simply refer to when you last saw the person and indicate how you look forward to seeing her again: “It was wonderful to see you at the wedding, and we look forward to seeing you at Mom’s Christmas party soon,” or “It was great to see your entire marketing team at the rally, and we look forward to working with you again next year.”
The Last Lines – End the body of the note by saying thank you once again, then tie it together by ending with an appropriate good-bye: “Thanks again. Love, Kim,” or “We appreciate your business. Best regards, Stan Smith.”
Sign your name and send it off. – The second line of the thank you should expound briefly on how the gift will be used: “We plan to use your contribution to our company for furnishing our new lobby,” or “I have already set your handmade container on my window sill where I can see it each day.” Even if you didn’t care for the gift, find something good to say about it. If the gift is money, your second line should explain how you plan to spend it, but you can keep this brief. For instance, “We plan to use the money for a new appliance for our apartment” will make the gift-giver feel that he or she contributed something thoroughly appreciated.
Notes, Letters or E-Mails?
So is it appropriate to send a thank you on e-mail? Or what about a simple postcard?
Postcards are acceptable when the recipient knows that a large group of people are being thanked. Saying thanks to 60 people who came to a birthday party, thanking all the teachers at a school for coming to a fund-raising drive, etc. are considered appropriate times to use thank-you postcards. When you can, however, a regular card is always more thoughtful.
Thank-You Cards
Most people are used to getting nothing but bills in the mail, so receiving something as positive and uplifting as an actual card is always something to look forward to.
Thank-you cards are appropriate for the following:
* Wedding gifts
* Birthday gifts
* Shower gifts
* Holiday gifts, such as Christmas or Hanukah
* Graduation gifts
* Being invited to a dinner party
* Being entertained at a restaurant by a co-worker, boss, client or friend
* Being treated to tickets to an event or function
* Being invited to stay overnight in a person’s home
* For a gift or memorial donation in the name of a deceased loved one
* For flowers or cheery mementos sent to you during illness or a hospital stay
How Soon to Send Thank You Cards
You should send cards for these gestures as soon as you can – the sooner the better, really – but at least within two weeks.
What Kind of Thank You Cards Should You Send?
Thank you cards can be made extra gracious with special touches: hand-draw or paint your own picture for the front; have your child draw a picture for the front if the thank-you card is from him; write a little poem; or even add a ribbon as a personalized gesture. If someone goes above and beyond to help you with something, personalized notes or letters are a much better choice than simply sending out pre-printed, generic cards. If you do send a generic card, however, be sure to personalize it with your own words, following the guidelines at the beginning of this article.
Business Thank-You Cards
For thanks from the workplace, many companies keep thank-you cards on hand with the company's logo imprinted.
Most of these cards are blank inside, so employees can fill them out as necessary. If these cards are not available, it’s a good idea to pick up some crisp, white cards of good-quality paper to have on hand when the need for a business thank you arises. Thank-you cards from the workplace can be used for thanking clients, vendors and other outside influences for gifts, services, fund-raising or any help offered.
Thank-You Letters
Sometimes thank-you letters can take the place of thank-you cards when the relationship is purely business. Thanking someone for an interview, thanking a co-worker for extra efforts, thanking an outside company for helping your company, or thanking an in-house staff for going the extra mile would all be appropriate in a letter format, rather than a card. These formal letters often are saved in employees’ files and can help when it’s time for reviews and raises. Not only is this business practice seen as respectful, but courteous.
When More Than a Note Is Appropriate
Some occasions call for a more elaborate way of saying thank you than just a card or letter.
Gifts are appropriate to thank someone for the following:
* Inviting you to stay at their home for several days
* Taking care of your child or pet or other family member in any way over a long period of time, including day care or rides to school
* Taking care of you during an illness
* For business, when you want to thank an entire team of people
Business thank-you gifts tend to fall into the gift-basket category, so entire departments can enjoy your thanks. Personalized candies, wine baskets, fruit baskets or cookie bouquets can go a long way.
A gift certificate to a spa, movie theater, favorite restaurant, dessert shop or book store would all be appropriate.
When you are thinking of thank you gifts, coming up with something expensive and elaborate is not the idea – your heartfelt gesture is what will matter most.
The Simplest Thanks
Of course, quite often, it takes nothing more than two simple words to make sure gratitude is properly expressed. A basic verbal “thank you” goes a long way to promoting goodwill in general, whether it’s offered to someone who holds a door open for you or to a co-worker who helps speed along a project on your behalf.
Saying thank you goes well beyond expressing good manners. The simple act of using two words or extending a gesture that shows gratitude lets others see their actions or behaviors mattered. Learning how to say thank you at home, at work and in the community is not difficult and is a practice that can make a difference in the lives of those around you.
How To Recognize A True Friend?
A true friend is hard to find. Every one of us have different personality and what we need is to adjust. I remember those days when I was in high school three of us promise that we will be friends forever. Until we graduated in HS we still have communications but sort like there are something missing already. Maybe because time flies by and changes occurs. I will be a true friend forever if you will let me too.(lol) If you are one who has the gift of true friendship in your life, you are fortunate. Most struggle to adjust and find one true friend that is consistent and constant in their life.Here are some tips how to recognize a true friend by Tamara Warta
The Characteristics of A True Friend
We hear the term “true friend” quite a bit, however, what does this term really mean? A true friend may be composed of many different characteristics, and you may find various friends taking on this role as you grow and change. For example, one true friend may stick by you through thick-and-thin, however, after you marry and become a parent, you find that your relationships changes in both distance and intimacy based upon those who are experiencing similar life patterns. There is definitely a distinct amount of ebbing and flowing found within the parameters of friendship, however, there are some qualities that are always associated with true friendship.
True Friends are Loyal
Chances are your confidentiality has been compromised on more than one occasion. Some people tend to be natural born gossips, and this can often start problems in friendship.
This is why a loyal individual who is capable of keeping secrets is an ideal companion.
True friendship requires trust, and the person who has a reputation for loyalty tends to attract trustworthy relationships. Loyalty is also important on other levels. Nobody wants to be friends with a boyfriend-stealer, or a person who continually asks for financial favors. A consistently trustworthy person often finds himself or herself surrounded by true friends.
Unfortunately, loyalty is hard to come by in today’s self-serving culture. If holding to this standard proves you have only one or two true friends, consider yourself fortunate. These two friends may be all you need to greatly improve your quality of life.
True Friendship is Free of Drama
Anyone can be overly-dramatic when they are upset or excited about something. However, those who gain a reputation as drama queens are going to struggle when looking for true friendship. While friends generally care about each other’s well-being, everyone still has their own agenda and personal life issues to deal with. Having to constantly care for an unstable companion can grow old quickly, especially if the dramatics flare up in situations where they are not appropriate.
If you are a drama queen yourself, try to keep the theatrics to a minimum. If you are friends with an overly-emotional person, then you probably understand how exhausting it can be.
For this reason, a second sign of a true friend is found in their ability to balance their needs and wants with yours. Everyone gets upset from time to time, and crying with a close friend is comforting and offers a healthy release. However, those who are constantly vying for your attention and obviously manipulating situations are not usually ideal for close friendship.
True Friends Endure
A final characteristic of a true friend is a good level of endurance. This may be the most difficult trait to achieve in friendship due to constantly changing circumstances. However, if you are able to find a friend who is there for you during life’s victories and heartbreaks, then you know how valuable this trait is.
The concept of treating others as you would like to be treated really does work when it comes to enduring friendships. If you prove to be a faithful companion when life gets rough, you will attract friends that back you up in the same way.
Endurance does not always mean being a superhero. Sometimes knowing when to back off and respect an individual’s privacy is the best approach to take. People who are able to discern between helpfulness and intrusion are capable of sustaining long-term friendships.
False Friendship
How do you recognize a false friend? Obviously we hope all of our friendships are genuine, however, there are instances in everyone’s life where they see through a facade and observe a person’s true agenda.
False friendships are usually conditional. A false friend wants to spend time with you only when it is convenient for him or her. They also may expect you to pay for dinner or the movie, or they may not call for weeks or months, only to turn up again when they need a favor or a shoulder to cry on.
Ending a false friendship can be difficult. As a child, a two-faced friend is easily eliminated by summer vacation or a family move. However, as adults, a false friendship can last for an obnoxious amount of time, leaving you feeling drained and defeated.
Setting boundaries is the best way to deal with a selfish or dishonest friend. You can’t change the world, but you can change who you hang out with and how people affect you. True friendship is attainable. Hold out for that true friend, and you will be forever changed.
Thank You!

Did you read the news about the Entrecard new proposal or shall we say benefit being a member? Well, for some point I agree some and some are not why? You can now earns money from your EC credits by selling it to them but the one that I am concern is about the "Above the Fold" advertisement. What is above the fold? I research it online what that mean and I saw an article about this. Above the fold is a just like a news headline that will show in the front page of the news. This also refers as the headlines and stories that are visible when the newspaper is folded in half as in a news rack. These are what sell the paper. Meaning in the web page this is a full screen advertisement that an user sees without scrolling. If the content of your page is not entertaining or amusing to the readers then your advertisement is nothing. Some websites doesn't want this kind of advertisement and I guess i can try it in my other blog but this blog doesn't like that. One more thing you will going to pay a EC credit if you will not accept the advertisement. Oh do not worry yet because this is not final. Entrecard tell this a week before it really launch in reality. At least they will know what are the opinions of the members. If you want to know more about this you can read it in their blog here. What can you say about this? Just share....
Thanks Lodz my FC!

Inspirational Message For The Day
I am in the mood of inspiring everybody while coming here. Today i want to share a passage that came from Psalm 86:7 it says:"I call you in times of trouble, because you will answer me."
You can talk to God because God listens. Your voice matters in heaven. he takes you very seriously. When you enter His presence, the attendants turn to you to hear your voice. No need to fear that you will be ignored. Even if you stammer or stumble, even if what you have to say impresses no one, it impresses God, and He listens.
I hope you have a good weekend and may God continue to guide your life as we face this economic crisis. Take care all.....
