After watching a movie the other night, hubby and I decided to enter a Japan bargain store and browse the items they are selling. Everything was being sold at a uniform price.
There were so many things being sold there, from bathroom thingamajigs, to school supplies, beauty tools, safety products, kitchen stuff, to knick-knacks.
We got several items. A small lock for eldest daughter’s locker, a bucket, a round thing that will make eggs look perfectly round, and other stuff.
Well, you gotta give credit to the store they sure know how to sell. We paid a lot more than have we brought out the calculators and added the amount of what we were getting.
No regrets, we are happy with the loot.

One of the risks working parents have to take is to leave their child(ren) behind in the care of their nannies. Most of the time, these nannies are strangers. When they get a little lucky, these nannies are people known to them. There are those who have their parents look after their children.
Is it any wonder then that in situations like these, household put up video surveillance equipment in their homes?
If my situation is like that I have mentioned above, i would definitely install these things. And why not? There have been a lot of abuses recorded on these equipments by yes, the nannies towards the children they were supposed to take care of.
Some were so difficult to watch. One time I even had my younger children watch a video that managed to record an abuse by a nanny who brutally abused her ward, a girl that looked like 3-4 years old.
My then 7yo son told me why I am making them watch it, the act being done was bad.
I told them so they know that there are people who will do these things to them and they should know what to do. He answered back that I am always there and that no one will do that to them. Awww…
Sigh. Be careful in choosing your child’s nanny.

I would love to have a real Christmas tree but living in warm tropical-like country, that is not a possibility (unless I order real trees from overseas and pay a fortune which I would never do).
So here is a part of our artificial Christmas tree with home-made ribbon decors and paper stuff that the children made:
A few more days to go and we usher in the -ber months.
Yes, Christmas is near.

My kids are looking forward to watching several movies next year. One of these movies that they have been anticipating is Avatar, the last Airbender.
They have been watching Aang, the Avatar, the Last Airbender’s adventure on tv and with a dvd. This is an anime series.
Here is an official trailer of Avatar, the Last Airbender as seen in YouTube:

Ok, Aang is Asian and the actor in the movie is not. I hope this movie will not disappoint considering the wait they have to endure.
