We have limited computer hardware at home: a desktop and two laptops. With three children who love to stay in and play with their computer games during weekends, hubby and I are left with watching DVD, doing house chores or reading for me and napping for the hubby.

Lately, we have been considering getting a new desktop, once the budget allows for it. Since hubby is the resident techie, so to speak, he plans to assemble the peripherals like hard disk, lcd monitor, power supply, motherboard, video card, LAN card, and anything and everything that can be attached to the desktop.

I’m thinking not of a desktop but a laptop so this can be brought anywhere but we will consider these things when the proper time comes.

There’s no denying that there is really no stopping Christmas Everywhere one looks, its almost as if the word Christmas is written on digital signage!

There’s no denying that a lot of families do not particularly expect to celebrate the holiday especially if they have been hit by these global economic crisis and have only simple plans to celebrate.

That is ok, I guess.

For me, Christmas is not about the food and celebrations, the shopping, the gifts and all things commercialized.

Christmas is about family, just as how it started with a family more than 2,000 years ago.

It is about the coming of God’s Son, Jesus to be with people so that He can teach us about love, faith and all things pertaining to the God.

Its about being humble, giving importance to the more important things in life and accepting one’s circumstances no matter what, without being bitter nor sad when material comforts seem to be lacking.

Sure, gift giving shows not only how much we value or think of our loved ones but this is not the only measure to show our love for them.

Yellow Cab Pizza is like a “special” pizza for we just have these when there are special events. We love it of course for the taste is really like no other but its price is not that affordable for us.

The children like pizza with mostly cheese as toppings. Whereas I love green bell pepper, mushroom and onions.

By the way, would you like your Yellow Cab Pizza be delivered in a Ducati motorcycle? Click here.

They say that breakfast is the most important meal of the day. Filipinos are know to have heavy breakfast of rice, eggs, meat and fruits. Or pancakes, champorado, porridge and pandesal with limitless choices for filling.

For those on the go, the easiest way to have breakfast is by making sandwiches, preparing oatmeal and cereals with milk or having a glass of fruit smoothie.

What is you favorite breakfast meal?

When my eldest daughter was young, we used to go to that park above so she can go horseback-riding. She used to enjoy riding on horses and going around the park. There were also times when we go to somewhere south so that she can also ride horses.

Although she enjoys riding, she often complains of feeling pain on her back and legs. The basic essentials for riding comfort are there but its nothing like those english saddles to offer comfort. Of course we can’t do anything about this because we don’t own the horse nor do we own one.

If we have continued her riding then she could have been a very good rider now. Sad to say, the nearby park doesn’t have horses anymore so my younger children wouldn’t be able to enjoy riding on horses like their elder sister used to do.
