Protect yourself and your loved ones - get vaccinated!

Carmina went to do her two weeks grocery on March 25, 2025, at Landers Balintawak branch. Upon entering the store near the pharmacy there was a sign posted saying to register for vaccines that will be held on April 12, 2025. Carmina called up Becky asking if she is interested remembered to look out for the flu shot. Becky said yes and asked her to give me full name, birthdate and phone number contact information. Carmina also called up Mom Violy said alright and still faraway to decide.  Carmina felt Mom Violy should get the flu shot since we'll be traveling to California upcoming vacation.

There are some people who are still using a camera just like in the olden days.  I was cleaning out my attic and found some film negatives that I kept away from so many years from my childhood. I had search online to check if there are still photo shops that can still develop my film negatives. All my friends we're laughing at me thinking it is impossible.

I found out you can actually use a special scanner for your negatives.  I checked online where to buy this sort of scanner. I started checking online to see if there we...
