WELCOME!!!
Hi there! I'm a Stay-At-Home Mom who loves digital scrapping, taking photos, web designing and blogging. And here you can find anything about me, myself and Caryl. Welcome to my little world!
What is Digital Scrapbooking? …. Check this out!
Satellite TV
I’m always thankful if one of the banks or restaurants or any business centers we’re going has the commercial satellite TV. It makes my life easier and I can transact properly, LOL! Tagging a little kiddo with any of these places could be miserable without any activity for them while waiting. And I think for us grown ups it makes boring too, isn’t?
That’s really one of the things I’m looking at. Since my son comes along with me always (no choice as I’m the one taking care of him, hehe), I have to make sure he won’t get bored and throw tantrums. Let’s take for instance going to a clinic. We usually wait until we called for our turn. That waiting time is such a big problem if no diversion for him. And having a business satellite TV is a big help. Hence, businesses should install stuff like that. One great use is for entertainment of their customers or clients. No boring time. And if your business caters for kids, then I strongly suggest set up a direct TV business account. Your customer will truly appreciate it so much and for sure mommy like me will be grateful.

tips on blackheads
A few years back I have this habit of squeezing nose blackheads by myself making my face red already, LOL! There are times it won’t budge easily and because of too much pressure it leaves blotchy for quite a while. Then I tried using a pore cleanser strips. It works but there are moments that I’m lazy to do it and I just use my fingers especially if I see the blackheads ready to pop out, LOL! I guess there’s a blackhead extractor to use for this but I haven’t seen one yet.
Anyway, let me share the following basic things to do however as a friendly reminder, if you have that face problem and you’d like to learn more about blackhead treatments, you may want to consider consulting a dermatologist first. At least they know what’s exactly good to use for your skin.
~ stop using oil-based makeup and skin treatments.
~ stop scrubbing your face with harsh abrasives.
~ moisturizing your face with a damp, warm cloth in the evening can help get rid of blackheads.
~ applying Beta Hydroxyl acid (Salicyclic acid) to the face on a regular basis has been shown to help get rid of blackheads
Now, this reminds me of contacting my own derma as well…
Things I Love About You
Before I head over to read different types of anti ageing creams let me share this nice freebie that is perfect to give to someone dear.
“Things I Love About You” is the theme for the brag book created by Digital Scrap Cafe using the February collab by the DSC designers. Below is sample of the pages:

Today
I’ve been trying to change my theme on this blog but decided to keep as is for the meantime. For once, I don’t have longer time to spend tweaking the codes. Another thing, I’m planning to work on seo again, so my priority is to check best seo software that I can use. I have work on this already a year ago, but then left it behind as I have other stuff that needs more attention. So I think having software will be helpful doing this things that I wanted. And after that, if I still have time I’m going to check for some freebies… 
Lady bug
Ok here’s the cute little bug and he’s saying ” Happy Valentines Day to you” …
I’m so happy when we finished all 12 Ladybugs and my son handed them to his friends. I got this idea from Skip to My Lou. I remember I was surfing that time and looking some tips on how to get rid of blackheads when I chanced upon that cute valentines idea. Since the materials were easy to pull out, I decided to make it as my son’s valentines treat to his friends in school. More photos below:
The materials we use:
… and here some of the lady bugs:
By the way, I forgot to mention the husband has participation here as well. He’s the one to put those wiggly eyes, hehe….
There you have it our lady bugs… we really had fun doing it!
Weekend templates freebie
I spoke too soon… I just thought I could spend long time and search a lot of freebies today so I can share with you but my short period in pc spent mostly reading blogs and articles like topics on hgh sprays and the like. However, I have few templates that I have seen from couple of designers, which is really nice. Here they are:
The first two from The Paper Iris
And this from Simply Yin
Grab them while available.
Meanwhile, I will upload the lady bug that I’ve told you… I got more photos on that cute stuff. Hang in there,
A week after
…. and I’m back here blogging, hahaha…. This week just goes so quick. I can’t even believe my last post was a week ago… looks like it was just the other day, hehe… well, busy indeed. One of my goals this year is to go back to workforce so looking for a job is one thing that I’m busy at. I got a long time preparing my resume, which I haven’t done for quite a while and this time I prepared 2 sets of resumes for the purpose of different requirements of employers… oh well! And earlier this week I got invited for interview and hopefully I will be a lucky girl. This is one thing that I’m wishing for my birthday soon… a new job!
Ok since it’s holiday due to Chinese New Year festive, I think I can have some time to search some freebies and do some stuff on pc. Also I will share with you the little buggy that my son and I prepared as his valentines treat…. Stay tuned!

TGIF!
… And imagine the first week of February is over, haha! That fast huh! Well, I’m browsing different DIY ideas for valentines. But then I was stuck reading about this motorcycle accident lawyer, which I found interesting to learn about. If only I have that longer time to spend in front of pc, it’s so nice to read different testimonies and stories on that site… also with the additional ‘me’ time, I will probably spend it surfing on the net and also continue with my invitation draft. Yeah, I started it already but not half done yet… I have a hard time what paper pattern to use, the color combination and all, hahaha! Plus still thinking what photo to use or we might do a picture taking for that purpose. well, I still have more time to think about it. It’s good I have started early…
Ok then I have to go. I will share here any DIY valentines I might chanced upon. Ciao for now… happy weekend!
