Wife Chat

June 9, 2009

I know of a wife who has poured all that she has to keep her family happy and contented.  Her husband is in the Middle East for more or less a decade now working as a civil engineer while she has a small business at home and looks after their three children and the household.  If you would look at her, you might tell that she is one happy wife with no problem whatsoever.  But if you will dig deeper into her life, she is one woman about to go off.  Her husband has found another woman whom he has impregnated and now lives with that other woman permanently. With such hard luck, she finds support and comfort from her own family and lately, from other wives when she signed-in and involved herself in wife chat .  This online chat certainly lightens her seemingly unbearable load since she gets to meet and interact with many other wives online.  And as I see her now, she seems quite unbothered and peaceful. Could that be due to wife chat online? Maybe!

The Aquarium We Didn’t Get To See

 

Days ago when it was yet bright and sunny, we drove around Manila and strolled down Rizal Park.  We’ve heard so much about the Manila Ocean Park and its beautiful show- off fishes. However, when we were already at the place, we had a second thought on paying the 480pesos/pax entrance fee.  Having seen other huge aquariums abroad such as the Sydney Aquarium and the Aquarium in Hongkong’s Ocean Park, we thought that it  would just be another same fish thingy.  So we decided to just spend the money instead, on food.  That’s exactly what we did, and it certainly was a great deal of food tripping. Some other day perhaps, we’ll also find ourselves inside the Manila Ocean Park, when they’d slash the entrance fee to a much lower price. Yay!

The Flooring Expert

June 7, 2009

A floor is the walking surface of a room or vehicle.  Floors may differ from simple dirt in a cave to many-layered surfaces using modern technology. Floors may be stone, wood, bamboo, metal, or any material that can hold a person’s weight. That’s all according to wikipedia. Normally,  floors are given much emphasis when building  homes cos it  reflects  the taste and personality of the homeowner.  We choose the right type suited for the place and we make sure it matches the overall appearance of the house.  However, as time passes by, the good looks of it fade away and eventually become dilapidated. 

When this happens, many think that they can manage to remodel their floors all by their own.  They would shop for all the materials and do it by themselves.  What they don’t know is that there is a reliable Huntsville Flooring company who expertly knows all kinds of flooring essentials. To avail of  the best flooring expert, they may ask for the bid from all the Huntsville Flooring Companies who will take all the necessary measurements of the project area, pick the right flooring materials, discuss the cost and many more relevant facts regarding the project. However, it is better to make the decision only after some inquiries and examinations on the company one has chosen.  These could provide which Huntsville Flooring Company is the better choice

Messed-up Merriment

June 6, 2009

 Last weekend we came to visit my Big Sis in Balanga City, Bataan.  Together with my own family, my (deceased) eldest brother’s family was also with us.  Such get together rarely happens for each ones’ schedules hardly ever coincide.  But this time around, after planning on so many places to go to, we ended up spending that one special Sunday in Sis’ place.

 

She didn’t have much time left for food preparation since we just informed her of our coming the afternoon before, so she just ordered from a food caterer.  The food was great though Sis’ cooking is much better. Anyway, the get together was in blissful peak when a tenant from one of her apartment units came over and complained about the roofing in their unit that needed immediate attention since it was raining cats and dogs that time.  We were quite upset by the uncalled situation but Sis, quite ruffled by the incident didn’t know what to do initially.  “Call one Orlando Roofing expert”, I jokingly advised.  I saw one website and they do have the skills and knowledge to do the job. I seriously wished deep inside, we have them here. Messed up roofing was messing up our happy moment.  Sis eventually contacted a repair man and sent him right away to the complaining tenant.  And the merriment continued till it was dark and time to go back to Manila.
