Wedding Memories

"I dreamed of a wedding of elaborate elegance,
A church filled with family and friends.
I asked him what kind of a wedding he wished for,
He said one that would make me his wife."

"I love being married. It's so great to find that one special person you want to annoy for the rest of your life." ~Rita Rudner


Don't you just loved wedding? I love weddings, anything to do about weddings. There were times back home that when I passed by a church and there's a wedding ceremony I usually go inside and watch. The part that I really like is when the bride is walking the isle and the groom was waiting... I love to see the reactions of both. I get teary eyes from time to time. It's just so overwhelming to me.

I didn't have the whole elaborate wedding programs. Me and my husband actually just went to the courthouse and it was just the two of us, the judge and a witness from the courthouse. Heck, we didn't even have any picture or video during the ceremony. I would love to see that moment when my husband was crying while he was trying to put the ring on my finger. And I thought I was emotional...it turns out, its the other way around.

Although, I got teary eyed a little bit. The only reason was because he was crying and it made me cried that he was crying. Now that I remember about it, I thought its actually cute.

I still wish that one day we can have the elaborate wedding program. It's a one time deal for me so I really want to have one. I love the idea of a black and white wedding. :)

Hunting for one.

For a while now, we have been enjoying the new flat screen television in our living room. Used to, we have this old television that we bought from a garage sale for $10.00. Yup! You read it right, $10.00. It was a steal... it's totally working. The only issue was that the VHS player on it doesn't work and it didn't have a remote. Well, the remote problem is not really a big issue because we can fix that. The VHS part, we don't really use it.

So we had that for a while and our big TV was on the media room. So whenever we want to watch different shows, one can use the TV in the living room and the other one on the media room. But, we decided its time to move on and so we bought a bigger one. So now, the TV in the media room is sort of just a display now. We hardly ever used it since most of the time we are in the living room. And since we move the DVD player in the living room, I think the only time that we use the other TV is when my daughter wants to watch her show and we want to watch grown up shows as well.

I'm not complaining though, I think its great that we have upgraded. I was actually thinking of moving the old TV inside our bedroom so we can still watch in the bedroom. But my husband has to run the wiring to the bedroom so we can watch there too.

My problem right now is the TV stand that we are using in the living room looks a little bit out of place with the new TV. Now, I've added another item on my list that needs to be taken care of. I am on a hunt for an entertainment centers that will fit in our living room without taking up a lot of space. So I was thinking that maybe we can just get a TV stand instead of the whole entertainment center. Not to big but not to small either. I found this picture online and I think the size will fit perfectly but I have to do some shopping around in order to find the right price.

Crossing my finger. Hopefully I will find one.

Information on Social Security Disability

I been seeing a lot of commercials about people being turn down for social security benefits as well as social security disability. I don't really know the deal about that, but personally if you have paid your dues when for social security when you were working and now that you need it, I think its unfair that these people are being turn down.

Good to know that there are some entities now that can help people who are being turn down do the appeal in order to get the benefit that they deserved. This is a benefit that people deserved. Most of the places that offer assistance usually don't get paid unless you get the benefit, just like the attorneys that don't get paid unless you win your case. So what happen is they work really hard in your behalf to make sure that you get the well deserved benefit.

So just an advice, if you or someone you know has been turn down for social security disability benefit, you need to take care and let them know that there are help out there.

Custom Corrugated Shipping Boxes

When we started an online store a couple of years ago, I keep wondering how we can further brand and promote our business. Since we ship our products, I was thinking that maybe it will be a good idea to have a custom shipping box, not only that it will look professional to our customers but we can also advertise that way.

However, due to limited resources we have to close that business so we never did tried the customized shipping box. But now, I was actually thinking of maybe starting another business. I've always wanted to have a store since when we were kids we have a small grocery store and even until now my mother and sister have this small grocery store that they manage. But I am not looking at starting a grocery store... I don't think that will really thrive since there are these big companies that can put the small business out of business. I am thinking more in terms of maybe accessories or anything to do with the house.

I found a website that do custom printed boxes and I think it will really work. The prices of the box are affordable so even if you are just starting, it will be something worth trying out.

Who knows about the future?

Have you had any major surgery?

When I was younger, I keep telling my sisters (older) that I am not going to have any scar in my body from any surgery. That time my oldest sister had a cyst remove and the second one had a surgery to remove her appendix and the third one had also undergone a surgery to have a cyst remove. So I was telling myself that I was lucky enough (actually more of like safe enough not to have any) because I didn't have any surgery. However, since we are not really sure of what's going to happen in the future, I end up having a surgery to have a cyst remove from my wrist and of course major one from having a baby. So now all of us actually undergone c-sections and another surgery.

I just now thought about it and that you can't really tell what will happen in the future. Who knows I might end up going to Mexico and accidentally encounter some accidents and end up surgery. I've read that spine surgery Mexico is quite known over there. This is just some hypothetical situations but like I said, I don't know the future.

I was just reading my nutrition book tonight and after reading the chapter, it occur to me that I might not be getting enough Rivoflavin in my diet. My throat has been really scratchy lately and soreness and irritation of the eyes...but it might just be strep problem and I just need to sleep early and cut off from watching television.

Oh, well to much stuff and just stressful times.
