A Virtual Pat on My Back

I was very busy writing an article about home lighting accessories when one of my blogger friends buzzed me at my Yahoo Messenger. She said congratulations to me because one of my posts in this blog was featured as an example favored by an advertiser. Well, I honestly, I was shocked when she said this because when I read the post, it seems that it was so simple because I only used basic grammar and words to compose it. The post I wrote didn’t contain any eloquent words or any dashing effects. It was a post written from my memories and experiences about my husband’s preferences on clothes!

So, when I checked my dashboard, there it was, I saw the link of my post. I couldn’t believe my eyes but with the thought of being technically featured as an example was already heartwarming and a virtual pat on my back. It made me realize that I need to do better and improve more! Thank you Sheriff!

Tailored Suit vs Casual Attire

I love watching men walking on with their tailored suit and a hand on their pockets, while the other is holding their briefcases. For me, these men look so smart and organized and that each of their actions is well planned. If only I can see my husband like this.

As I have mentioned in my other post, my husband only likes casual clothes and that formal attires are not his type. So whenever we do some shopping sometimes, to buy some clothes and other necessities, he just prefers t-shirts and shorts and of course, polo shirts and slacks are last on the list. Well, I guess it does not really matter how he dresses, what really matters now is how he performs his obligations to us as my husband and a father to our children…

Home of Our Own

It has always been my main goal to have a home of our own where we I can decorate it on my own without having the need to consider or ask permission from other people (like my landlady). But because we have been in a tight budget since time immemorial, this will remain as a dream in the meantime, but still number one on my list of goals in life.

I heard that many Outer Banks foreclosures are for sale at a very reasonable price and that a little renovation or just general cleaning is only needed with these properties. I just hope that one of these days I will be able to buy one for my family, with God’s help, of course.
