I miss my virtual friend Grey Mom

No, she does not work for mynursinguniforms.com for Greys anatomy scrubs but she is a big Grey’s Anatomy fan. I don’t know is she still loves the show. Somehow we have stopped communicating when she stopped blogging. In fact it was a little over a year when she last wrote a blog post and I put in a comment.

I guess I am not meant to be a fan of medical-related shows like the one previously mentioned because I prefer police slash murder investigations slash high adrenaline kind of tv series.

I tried the zombies but I only watched season one.

The series I followed through from beginning to end are more on the type I wrote above ^ and the same genre is true with the books I read. Having said that, let me say I am looking forward to seeing Alex Cross on the big screen.

I just love DIY projects. In the last two years I made a lot of notepads that I gave away.

Personalized gift tags? Check.

Family photo Christmas tree ornaments? Check!

Now I want to buy beads in bulk so I can make bracelets like these to give away. My eldest daughter used to make bracelets too and she has some leftover materials I have to find first before getting the supplies I might need.

Gifting need not be expensive as long as one is creative. This may mean some manual labor but that would be more fun than jostling your way to the cashier during sale events, right?

We LOVE Celeteque Dermoscience Hydration Gentle Exfoliating Facial Wash.

For my teen daughter who uses a certain creamy beauty bar as her facial wash for years, it was difficult to ask her to try this certain Celeteque Dermoscience product. But when she tried it, there was no going back to the beauty bar for her.

Celeteque Dermoscience+ hydration Gentle Exfoliating Facial Wash is gentle. The red double vitamin (C and E) beads are gentle and these “melt” upon touching so one can not feel anything rough on the face upon usage.

EXFOLIATING FACIAL WASH
Safely removes dead skin cells that may clog pores. It has DUAL VITAMIN NOURISHING BEADS infused with Vitamin C and E that gently burst to help nourish and protect the skin. Its spherical shaped microbeads exfoliate without scratching the skin.

Read more about it here.

Skin feels IS smooth. The fragrance of Celeteque Dermoscience Hydration Gentle Exfoliating Facial Wash is just right, not too fragrant (good for people with allergies like me) and not smelling like “medicine”.

Instructions says to “use every other day” but I use this daily, twice a day and my skin loves it because I don’t feel any dryness or irritation. I still have to try the other Celeteque Dermoscience Products.

Celeteque is a product of Unilab.

Being cooped up at home does not mean getting cabin fever because there is so much to do. I know there is a lot of things I have to do but in this cool bed weather, instead of cleaning up, sorting and organizing the things we have that needs to be sorted and organized in the clothes closets, library, dvd cabinet, kids’ room and even the living room, I just want to curl up in bed with a good e-book. And by e-book I mean I got a long list of ebooks to read.

So, how can one battle cabin fever?

• clean up the mess brought about by the more-than-week long rains
• sort clothes and toys and give these away to those who need them instead of just having these unused inside cabinets
• volunteer in relief centers and help in the packing of relief goods
• bond with the family by cooking for them and just simply spending time together

I am sure people are now eager to go out and breathe some outdoor air. I myself am ready to go as soon as I finish some online tasks.

I just hope and pray that my fellow kababayans who were affected by the massive flooding are in a better situation than earlier last week.
