I Want a Bathroom Scale

I've been observing myself and my kids, I wonder If there's some changes in our weight. I really need to buy a bathroom scale so I would know if there's a changes. My goal for my kids is to gain some weight while for me is to lose, lol. No kidding, I am expecting my body to lose weight. Why not? My food intake is still the same as before but the difference is that I am doing house chores now. Imagine we only have 3 stools in the house, we are four in the family so expect that I am the one standing while eating, that's fine with me, I actually like that case because It's better for my tummy. After we eat I am cleaning the table, washing dishes and so on and so forth so I am expecting I will lose weight for I feel like I am burning some while doing the households. I don't need to go to the gym anymore. I wanted to try diet pills before but I am a little bit afraid coz I'm not sure what a diet pills like oxyelite pro side effects are but I may be using one if I gain more weight. Oh, no! Don't say that! I don't wanna gain weight anymore! I want to eliminate fats in my tummy! I really need to buy a bathroom scale so soon so I could monitor our weight and go to our goal!

Recycled Items

Do you recycle things in your home? Like using your plastic bags from the groceries and make it garbage bags? What do you do with the used bottles from your condiments and softdrinks? How bout the styro foam from the meat packages?

Way back home, my mama used to collect all this trash and sell it in junk shops. She's earning some coins from those junks. I was thinking if I can do the same here in AR hahahahaha but I don't think there's such a thing like that in here.

For now, I really can't just throw them away, I am thinking of something to make them usable again. I started with the boxes, my kids love to write and draw but we have no enough business office supplies yet so for the meantime I am cutting these boxes into rectangle or square and tadah.... they have their drawing paper already!

boxes of their pancake and biscuits

See how can these junk become useful again?

Other stuff like I mentioned above were all useful to me. I am not throwing them immediately especially the bottles, they can use for storing foods or left over condiments like tomato sauce from cans, etc. Some stuff can't be recycled and can't be used for several so better throw it once you you have used it.

Try recycling too, it's fun and most importantly we're helping to save our environment.

One Peaceful Afternoon

I was wondering how come my surroundings were very silent yesterday afternoon. My kids just had their lunch then they played a little then I noticed they were not that hyper to play like what they used to do during that hour. I asked Ethan if he's sleepy (coz he's always having his nap time, but not that early) and he said yes so I cuddled him and scratch his back so he could be able to sleep. After few minutes, Ethan was already sleeping and to my surprise, Ate Ishi was also asleep! That's the first time she took her nap ever since we arrived here. I guess that's because she woke up early that morning when their daddy kissed her goodbye.

So this was the first time I had my peaceful afternoon even just for an hour.

Can't Wait To MOVE to our Next HOME

I Started to imagine things when daddy said to me the good news...he always tells me about the offers from his company but nothing became official yet until this one came. He has L2 working Visa offer for 2 years at Arkansas, USA. I know some things are hard but for me, this is a good opportunity for my husband and my kids. I know it's hard to adjust but that is just in the beginning. I know this blessing was given by God and we have to accept it. There maybe some challenges awaits us there but I am more willing to adjust and sacrifice some things just to have this opportunity and chance of living a normal life. When I say Normal Life its living on our own, we will have our own house even if we're only renting for sure, hoping to have our own car too, we will have our privacy, we can be able to discipline our kids on our way, we could eat on our dining table, and so on and so forth. I'm expecting a big change and I can't wait till that day comes. I know God is there to protect us, I know God will always be there for us no matter what.... I can say I am ready now and I can;t wait to MOVE in to our Next HOME! =)
God Help Us!
