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. Two years ago, when we went to California got sick and that time it was covid season. I just wanted to protect myself even though hardly get sick in the Philippines. Two days before our flu vaccine received a SMS on our mobile phone number to confirm if we are going to get our flu shot. I had responded said yes. One day before I had message Becky if she had received her confirmation on her flu s...

Mom Violy's Experience Riding an L300 for the First Time

One week ago, Uncle Danny called up Mom Violy to inform her sister that she needed someone to drop him at the airport. Mom Violy realized her car was coding on a Thursday and asked her friend Sonny if he was able to drive his L300. Sonny said, he was available being off on that day from work. Mom Violy had informed Carmina if she can come along with her. I said yes than began thinking a concept how I can use it for my blog. I came up with the theme riding a school bus because in the Philippines people use an L300 for private school services. Other private company uses it a source of transportation for their employees or for delivery purpose. I had no problem riding in an L300. I've ridden on it in the past. Yet, for Mom Violy it was her first time. She had no clue it is difficult for seniors to climb up riding in the front near the driver. Seniors you need to assist them to climbing up. There are handles to hold on from the side. Mom Violy had no clue riding in the back it is easy ...

Who do you give your unwanted stuff?

I am sure we have friends who are having a difficult living those who live alone or have no source of family around them. Yet we are the lucky ones who can give what we no longer need by giving to someone else. Carmina looked at her belonging checking what she can give away to Becky. First, I remembered Becky needed a wall calendar that she can note down her reminders. Mom Violy had given it to me last year when she had purchased some medication.  Becky was the first person who had asked if I had a spare calendar to give to her.  I saw an alcohol spray bottle that was lingering inside our sink cabinet. I asked Becky if she wanted it for her personal use.  I remembered Becky informing her that her phone is dying, and she needs a power bank. I was able to charge it since it is not compatible with my phone. I decided to give it to Becky. Becky had informed me that her girdle I had given to her the past no longer fits because it had stretched out. Or what we call overused sin...
