Alright, so I have a target to shed some weight (why does this feel like deja-vu?) in four month’s time. The big question is how? Gym? Pills as in like click here? Well I have done a lot of thinking about the gym but because I would not be able to fully utilise the gym [...]

It’s happening already, sale at major family departmental stores, Target, Kmart, BigW mainly. Soon it’ll be the mid year stock take sale. Time to look at the check list to replenish or replace broken goods with new ones. Hope to get some bargains as usual.   Funnily, my appliances seem to be breaking down one [...]

I remember back in those days, my colleagues would jokingly tell me that collecting golf balls from the lake or pond (not sure what you call them) makes good money and that we should seriously consider doing that part time on top of our full time jobs.   I asked how? They told me that [...]

That’s right, haven’t been to any special places in particular. Mostly due to the wet weather which makes you just want to stay in bed the whole day long (too bad that isn’t possible). Also busy with other day to day matters. Not long before we enter into the month of June.   Yikes, dare [...]

We had a good Mother’s Day celebration and now Father’s Day is the next thing to look forward to. Though we haven’t actually plan on what to do be it with DH or with FIL. Worse still, what gifts to get them?   Hmm perhaps looking up “the” guide to Father’s Day gifts this year [...]

Frankly, it’s only been slightly over a week since I last wrote something here and believe it or not, I can’t recall much of what took place. I guess that means nothing out of the ordinary or exciting took place *LOL*.   It was nice to sit back and let loose once in awhile when [...]

I see many programs and read a lot about how a bad credit record affects an individual. Like maybe difficulty in applying for credit cards, credit, loan, etc. I wonder how many would obtain a free credit report of themselves before applying for loans and such?   It is scary to watch or let a [...]

It was our first time shopping at a TradeSecret outlet, Mt Druitt yesterday. Our initial plan was to check out the Rivers Clearance Outlet for its shoe sale but walked out empty handed, didn’t find anything we needed.   Instead, we ended up spending several hours at TradeSecret.com.au mostly browsing all the racks of the [...]

Am I the only one who really thought that all Hollywood stars really got rid of their excess weight and able to maintain their svelte figures by exercising with the help of a personal trainer?   I guess my respect for some had diminished when I read that some of them used drugs to achieve [...]

… that is the question. Yep am still pondering about the elliptical cross trainer machine. It’d set me back $250 if I decide to get it. Why not a treadmill? It’s because of space constraint and we can’t exactly put a treadmill in our living room without destroying the porcelain floor tiles. Also, I’ve used [...]

Sad to say my weight loss goal has gone to the pits! Funny to think that I was more successful in shedding the kilos when my girl was a few months old. The weight loss went well and gradual. There was no need to consider any weight loss products to get back to the light [...]

I didn’t quite believe it until DH told me. So I checked Kmart’s website and saw the following outlets in NSW which are open for business 24/7! Not that I buy much from Kmart but 24/7? Wow I wonder how they sustain the cost. The following outlets in NSW, according to Kmart’s website; open 24/7: [...]

Certainly not for me. I remember an article about families who complained they have one too many parties to attend each week. One particular person said one party in the weekend means there goes one day of your weekend. Imagine that for every other weekend, wow.   The other part I wish they’d talk about [...]

I am prolly the last person who would bother about the latest TV technology but today, DH seemed very interested to try out the new Samsung 3D TV at The Goodguys. Since we were there, we decided to check it out.   The sales guy was kind enough to turn on the 3D feature and [...]

When was the last time I attended a wedding? I think it was about two years ago. The last two weddings I attended, handed out handmade wedding programs which I think is so nice.   It is interesting to note that over here, many people love to handmade invites, program sheets, cards and such. Back home [...]
