I love the fact that I have two computers at home. I have a desktop where I usually do photo editing, do some images and work on my headers. I also have a netbook where I surf and blog (at times). I seldom use the netbook because it’s a bit slow compare to my desktop (and to hubby’s laptop) but I like the fact that it is mobile. I can use it anywhere in the house. I can even use it while I am mopping the floor. Yeah, talk about multi tasking.
My Dream Backyard
If we are to have our own house, I want it to have a big lawn. A lawn where we can plant fruit bearing trees. And as my first born son says, a lawn where they can have a tree and they can pretend monkeys. If we only live in the province, we won’t have problems looking for trees. Here, we have to go to the nearest ecopark to be bale to play and climb trees. If money will allow us, we will buy a big lot, plant a lot of trees and install a pond. Our pond will have the best pressurized pond filter to prevent it from being dirty and saturated.We will put a lot of fish there. I can just imagine how our backyard will look. In the front, we will have a small pond and a garden of flowers and one or two fruit bearing trees. At the back, we will plant vegetables and a lot of fruit bearing trees. And we can even have a tree house!
Dreaming can be really fun!Oximeter For Home Use
Another great gadget that we can invest is oximeter. In hospitals, this used to measure (indirectly) the oxygen saturation of a patient’s blood (thanks Wikipedia.com). Having this medical devise at home can be advantageous. Home where there is a patient that suffers from respiratory or cardiac problems should have this. But before buying an oximeter, you should first look for the one that is best in terms of quality and is very accurate in measuring oxygen saturation. Don’t e fooled with low quality and inferior oximeter, choose only the best. After all it’s your health we are talking about.
FYI: In June, 2009, video game company Nintendo announced an upcoming peripheral for the Wii console, dubbed the “Vitality Sensor,” which consists of a pulse oximeter. This marks the onset of the use of this device for non-medical, entertainment purposes. source
Kids Bed
Last nigt, the ids and I were talking. They say they wanna try sleeping on their own room. I am secreting a 3 to 4 bedroom house. Haha. Wish I can have that next year. My first plan is to give the two older boys, their own room. Can you just imagine that? My two boys sharing a room. I even looked for cool bed for them. I want a bed for them that can be very functional. Bed that can also be a loft or where they can organize their clothes and their things under it.
The one above seems nice. See how functional it can be and how the spaced are maximized? Even the stairs are used as drawers. I can ask someone to make a bed like that formy kids, have it in blue and the boys will surely love it.
But! I also like the image above. It is so cool and the colors are so right. And lookie, just like the photo above, every area are maximized. Under the bed seems to be the closet and then under the platform, there is also a pull out bed. Great! specially if my kids will have a sleep over with their friends. COOL!
Aquarium Beliefs
They say that having an aquarium can bring good luck at home. I even watched a show where they discuss what kind of fish can be put in the aquarium. They even said that we can put some gold coins on it to attract money. Of course, we have to be cautious and should clean the coins first. Let me drink some coffee first before and I will share with some of the things I learned from this certain TV show.

I’m back.
And yes, about the aquarium thing. I learned that the color of the fish plays important role if you want your aquarium attract good luck. They say that you should invest on fish in the colors of blue, green, yellow. You should not pet a red fish as red signifies fire. Fire and water does not go together. Another thing, the best place for an aquarium is to put it near the door. Do not put an aquarium inside your bedroom. Because of the bubbling activity of the water, aquarium is really busy, and placing it in your bedroom is not a good idea. Bedroom should be relaxed. Lastly (since I still have to finish my breakfast), always put odd number of fish on your aquarium and put a black fish to absorb all negative energies.
I am not an expert on aquariums and beliefs surrounding it, I am just sharing.
