Crybaby Matinee!!!!
Yesterday we went to watch a movie at the Angelika theater downtown houston. It's unique because you can bring your baby with no worry about crying and fussing! It's really cool because inside the theater, they put a changing table and wipes but there was no diapers though...hehe I think it would be too much for them if they'll give diapers.. By the way, they call it crybaby matinee show and it's only every friday and saturday mornings of each week! My husband and I really like this idea because here in houston there's nothing much you can do except shopping and going to a movie theater.
I was really happy of how Pauline behaved in the movie theater. She didn't get scared with the loud noise and didn't feel strange with the dimmed light at all...

Christmas and New Year Update!
hello friends....I haven't been here for a while, well... I'm just lazy and kinda disappointed with some blogging advertisement websites...hmmm I wish they know....
So, I guess I will start by sharing my Christmas happenings...
We did a lot of shopping of course, there were so much good deals that I couldn't resist!ahaha...On Christmas Eve we stayed at home. My husband and I cooked some serious food and got some Champagne. We also had singing moments. Indeed, my husband managed to assemble it's kinda mickey mouse karaoke and it worked well.ahahha! We had a lot of fun even though just the three of us are celebrating. But, we can't avoid the feeling of really missing our family with us on Christmas day . I wish next year we will be able to spend Christmas with them...
On new years eve, my husband booked a table for us at a french restaurant somewhere in Bellaire. We didn't cook at that time because he was working the day before. The food was really delicious and worth for a new year celebration. We went home right away after our dinner because there was nothing special going on downtown, so we decided to go home. We stayed up till midnight and got something to drink while waiting for the new year! That's all I have to share with you pals....Wishing you all life's best this New Year!!!
Here are some pictures that I took, Enjoy!!!!:)
This is the serious food that I was talking about...ahahah

Debt advice...
In today's economy more and more people become victims of a system that allowed them to live maybe more comfortably than what they could really afford. Indeed, the creditors, basically financial institutions, need to improve their incoming cash flow and therefore have no mercy for the debtors.
For people who have tried everything to repay their debt it become impossible to live and their last resort would be to file for bankruptcy, but everybody should do as much as they could to Avoid Bankruptcy. The Clear Debt is there to assist persons in difficulty by first analyzing your financial situation including your income, assets and savings. The website offers miscellaneous tests and useful advices to get someone out of this infernal situation. Of course they will provide personalized consultations and will walk you through the different options that are at your disposition to avoid bankruptcy. If you have already clicked on one of the links above I'm sure you noticed that it is a British website but still is very helpful; I think that being in debt is the same thing anywhere on the planet, maybe the regulations change but owing money is something as old as the world.
Maybe you won't feel concern by this but I think it is good to know what bankruptcy is and what it means since we always hear about it in the media.

Champagne!!
For Christmas we bought a bottle of champagne and a small bottle of "Creme de Cassis" which is a Blackcurrant liqueur. See the picture below.
The Creme de Cassis is used like a "syrup" that you mix to the champagne, the result is called a "Kir Royal" but be careful, this syrup is 20% alcohol!
We also got some flutes to drink the champagne because it is the Glass made for it.
I would definitely recommend the Kir Royal for big occasions or if you wish to impress your guests.

And why not a nice Watch?
Hi mates!
My husband would really like to have a very nice watch, but they are so expensive! He wants the one that does not need batteries and impossible to scratch with Sapphire Crystal glass. So off course I browsed the web to find some of those for a very good price, and that's by doing this that I found this website about jewelry watches. See by yourself this picture:
This is an Omega and on thewatchery.com the have discounts up to 80% on their luxury watches and sometimes up to 90% on their clearances, and off course don't forget their deal of the day, it really worth it! Last time I checked they had a Movado for $149!!! Over $1,200 saving!! I was so tempted...
With the Free Shipping (for orders over $100) they propose some real good deals. Their selection is very interesting and for all type of prices, up to several thousand of dollars. And of you order now, you will receive before Christmas! So if you're planning on offering a watch, you definitely have to check thewatchery.com.
I always thought that a nice watch was the best type a jewelry to offer because it is very visible to others and it's practical, that's why men prefer this as any other jewelry.
Cheers!

10 Habits of a Happy Woman
We live in a time where the search for happiness consumes almost all of our time. Try this habits and be a happy woman!!!!
1. Maintain your hormonal balance. Are you moody, exhausted, irritable - anything but happy? Check your hormones. If they're out of whack, then you're less likely to be happy. Make sure you're getting enough protein and vitamins, and decrease your refined sugars and carbohydrates. Also, make sure you eat foods that improve your mood and take vitamins for women.
2. Forgive yourself for your mistakes. This website for women is all about not obsessing or feeling guilty about your past choices or failures is ineffective and unhealthy. Learning to forgive yourself for your mistakes and letting go of the past is a habit that will make you a healthy woman.
3. Connect with who you are. Being a daughter, wife, or mother is one aspect of your life. It doesn't define who you are as a woman. To connect with who you are, take time to connect with your authentic self. The more authentic you are, the more appealing you'll be to others. A healthy woman lives a healthy life.
4. Spend time with people you connect with. Do you feel drained or sad after spending time with a particular friend, coworker, or relative? Limit the time you spend with them. Note how you feel after visiting with particular people; if you feel energized and happy, then they're a good match. This website for women is about respecting yourself and living a healthy life.
5. Speak kindly to yourself. If you beat yourself up for being overweight, a bad mom, or not exercising enough, you just create a downward spiral. A great habit of healthy women is to remind yourself of your achievements and successes. Refuse to say anything negative to yourself that you wouldn't say to your best friend. Being kind to yourself is almost as good as vitamins for women!
6. Listen to your body. I heard Oprah Winfrey say this about 10 years ago: listen to what your body is telling you. Are you emotionally hungry or physically hungry? Feed yourself properly. Are you sad, furious, or depressed? Taking care of yourself is a habit that will make you a healthy woman.
7. Volunteer your time. Find something that takes you out of your comfort zone or that you love to do. You'll feel great that you're helping others out - and volunteering directly improves your physical health. This website for women can encourage you to step out of your comfort zone by taking risks and trying new things.
8. Let go of perfectionism. Strive to do your best, but let go of perfectionist tendencies. Accepting that you're doing the best you can is a habit that will make you a happy women. Letting go of perfectionism is like a vitamin for a woman, and will lead to a healthy life.
9. Use your core strengths. Are you a natural mathematician, writer, or party planner? Discover your core strengths by trying different things until you find what fits. To try new things, take short-term volunteer positions or volunteer for new projects at work or in your community. Healthy women polish their skills and practice their talents.
10. Take time for yourself. This habit for happy women is one I couldn't live without: take time to recharge your batteries and refuel your emotional, spiritual, and physical energy. Spend at least a few minutes alone each day - even if you have to lock yourself in the bathroom to do it! When you're taking time for yourself, find other websites for women. They'll help you lead a healthy life.

A steady income when you retire
Hi mates!
This post is addressed to my readers who are 62 years old and older, but you're under this age you may still read it as I found this very interesting myself. This is about reverse mortgages or how can turn your home equity into a fixed income when you retire. If one is not planning to his or her home to his or her heirs this system could turn out to be quite interesting.
Basically, once you have reviewed the reverse mortgage process with a HUD (Housing and Urban Development) approved counselor your home will be approved based on its value on the market and how much you still owe on the house, if it applies. Then sum of money is proposed to you that you may take as a lump sum or as a monthly payment. You may click on this link to find more information, Reverse Mortgage Benefits.
Also another interesting fact is that it has nothing to do with your credit score and can represent Tax free money. If you want more detail, reverse mortgage California can provide you advices from HUD approved consultants and can walk through the whole process. Again you must be 62 years old or older.
That's all folks! I heard about reverse mortgages before and I thought I should share this with you, even if you're to young to be concerned, it's still good to know.
Cheers!
