My Mature Skin

When one is younger, you don’t need to worry too much about anything, especially your skin. But as one becomes older like yours truly, you not only become aware, you can sometimes get paranoid too. Why..?? because you start noticing things on your face and your body that you’ve never noticed before and you know you cannot ignore it, when your your neighbour’s 2 year old ask his mother what are those lines around your eyes.

Yes.. we do all age.. but for me, I want to age gracefully and beautifully. And one shouldn’t be ashamed or afraid.. to let others know that they are using Anti Wrinkle & Anti Aging Skin Care Treatment, afterall, a woman has got to do what they’ve got to do right..? But what I’m seriously more interested in, is the Rejuvawand. It is a light based alternative to botox injections, microdermabrasion, IPL photo rejuvenation and other skin care and anti-wrinkle treatments. I’ve seen my esthetician use this on my face many years ago before coming to Canada.

Mexico Vacation Villas

I don’t know if you are aware of how close Mexico is to Canada. Every winter, Canadians goes in drove for their winter vacation around January to Mexico. And the main reason why they keep going back is because they love the people there. Mexico’s Mayan Riviera is an all time favorite vacation spot for both the young and old. And what makes Mayan Riviera unique is everything you need to do is within a short distance.

Vacationing in Mexico, is truly the most memorable because you can choose to do anything you want or just bum around and enjoy the sea and the sun. Get totally relaxed or get totally adventurous, it is entirely up to the individual. And to be really honest with you, it is a perfect vacation destination for the whole family. Even the “out-laws” (parent-in-laws) would appreciate it and you. So if you are vacationing with the whole family, Mexico Vacation Villas, would be something to seriously consider, because all villas are only 15 – 20 mins away from the airport and centrally located for your convenience for any activities that you so wish to do. Not only are these villas huge enough to house the whole family, you get the kind of privacy you can never get in a resort. With private pool and beach front views and all the amenities that beats even the best resort around… like broadband and Tommy Bahama linens.

Staying in a rented villa does not mean that you still have to cook for the whole family and wash up after them during vacation and be left out of all the fun because super-delicious Chef Miguel is here to help..! Try regional Mayan dishes or fresh fish and seafood caught daily and prepared to perfection. From breakfast to dinner, they cater to your needs and shop fresh if possible for you and your family. Whether you want fajitas or pancakes, they will do their best to keep you tummy happy. For a truly enticing, remarkable and memorable vacation, check out Caribbean’s Hotspot, the Mayan Riviera.

PowerShot A560 Digital Cameras

Our digital camera is ready to retire, we bought it about 3 yrs ago, when my daughter was born. I don’t think I can survived without a digital camera because I take pictures of my daughter and my surroundings ALOT..! I’m the snap Queen..! I take pictures of everything. Luckily, we now have digital cameras, otherwise, i can’t imagine how much film i have to buy for the ancient camera I had.

The good thing about having a digital camera is, you don’t have to develop any photos that you don’t like or haven’t taken in good light. Not like before, where you have to develop all 36 pictures in a roll of film. Seriously, I thank God.. for digital cameras.

Since I am not the technical person in this household, the hubby after much research is currently looking at the series of PowerShot A560 Digital Cameras. There are definitely, quite a few choices that we can choose from, I for one wants something real simple, just point and shoot type, like the Canon PowerShot A560 7.1MP Digital Camera . Luckily for us, there are so many in this Canon Power”Shot A560 series, we can take our time to do our research before investing in a new one.

Pass The School Bus and You Die..!

“Motorists face a penalty of six points against the licence and $394.50 (first offence) for illegally passing a school bus.”

School Bus Safety Awareness week is extremely important in this town where incidences of vehicles passing school buses illegally while picking up or dropping of their kids are extremely high and frequent. I am pretty happy to know that the fine for the first offence alone is so high because motorist needs to take care of the children on the bus. Last year alone, we’ve seen so many incidences happening with the school children and school buses. It is too frightening to let your kids go onto those buses.

By the way, in Canada.. school buses are free to use for kids attending school all over the province, unlike in Asia, we do not have to pay for transportation. Pretty cool eh..?

Thoughtful Gift

This afternoon, Keegan (babysitter) came into the store..and handed me a gift. A very thoughtful one.. i’ll have to say. You see I love home fragrance oil but because we haven’t been to Halifax for so long, I can’t get any here locally… because there is no Body Shop here. And Keegan knowing that.. since i’m outta it for a few weeks now.. she bought me something similar to what i am used to.. from the Body Shop.. orange flavour.. and from her own pocket.. not expecting that I will pay her back for it.

Now you tell me.. isn’t she thoughtful..!! We are indeed very lucky to have Keegan. She is never whiny.. nor does she demands for anything. She does her job well.. and dependable. And she is only 17..! alot of those that we’ve hired before isn’t even half as good as she is. I only thank God.. again.. and again.. for Keegan.
