Now a day, colon cancer or colon related diseases are rampant and many are suffering from this chronic disease. If we could tell that we are suffering this type of disease may be we could prevent or control it by taking colon cleansing regimen. Who would have thought of any diseases that slowly eat us? No one I guess. I have known few of my friend’s families and even one of the most recognize women in my country who did not escape the dreaded disease. I have read a colon cleanse review/s and understand the purpose of the regimen. I hope that I could find the herbal type concoction and try it for colon cleansing sake. This is scary disease and serious.

Hooray to all my visitors! Six months of the calendar is almost over and now we are closer to the next quarter of the year include Thanksgiving and Christmas to that. Gee, there is nothing to get excited because those major holidays could surely rip our purse. Where I have been lately? Just at home, busy reading school textbook, enjoyed the Toronto Pride Week and we have gone to the farm for strawberry picking.

I have been living in the Greater Toronto for almost two years now. I was not able to roam around the city and the vicinity for the past few months. And, today we had a wonderful escapade to the farm where corn fields, vegetables and other green vegetation are plenty. Gracious! I thought that the Greater Toronto is all about skyscrapers and advance mode of transportation. I was surprised to see the greener side of the city. It was amazing to see those small counties, the farms and lush greenery. Some of the greens are here especially our strawberry picking under the rain. Yes! We are crazy picking berries under bad weather condition.

I was mumbling about the asbestos field materials and its effect to the people who were exposed to the materials. What if the worker or retired workforce is suffering lung abnormalities or cancer? Could the worker or retired person ask medical support from the company they have been working for ages? I just hope so, because nobody wants a disease that cause by someone’s negligence. If not? Then I hope that the Mesothelioma lawyers could help. Asbestos cause diseases are serious issues that need experts helped. If asking medical support personally to previous or present company is difficult to handle, then lawyer is needed.

This is all about fashion and comfort. How do you measure yourself when it comes to how to wear clothing? I do have clothes of today’s trend but I rarely wear them to show that I am in the flow or in mode of fashion. I am more on comfort ramp than the cat walk blings. I could not say that I am tacky, but I am more on the conservative closet. I love jeans, blouses and jackets and they are not oversize. I wear definitely based on my size, except when at home because the bigger is more comfortable. One thing, you could not let me wear clothes of the 60’s or 80’s. May be I could but it should be altered based on this generation trend. That means I am both in fashion trend and comfort. Gee! If ever I have the guts to wear my grandma’s clothes unaltered, I bet, I would be the laughing duck and source of rolling eyeballs.

It’s been ages now since the discovery of asbestos filled materials cause harm to humans, these materials also strictly imposed not to be used specially to homes, buildings and manufacturing structures. I guess, it is applied to homes and commercial buildings but I’m not sure if it is strictly followed by some manufacturing structures. Because last year, one of the buildings in the city explode due to liquefied petroleum gas. It was also known that the structure used the asbestos materials for walling and ceiling. Now, I just hope and pray that the workers who have been in the company for ages will not suffer due to asbestos exposure. We all know that the worst thing will happen is having the mesothelioma cancer. This country imposed health related policies strictly, yet there is/are still people get away with it. How much more to those countries where government regulations are not focus to health safety? I know that my country is still weak to regulate the usage of asbestos filled materials, because I heard that one of my friends’ house use this material for ceiling. Gracious may!

It is amazing to see green grass lawn without weeds in this country. Homeowners spent thousands of bucks to lavishly manicure their front and back spaces to picnic inviting greenery. I could not see that green green grass of happiness in my parents’ home. Our back and front yard are huge but it is decorated with vegetables, flowers and fruit trees. Yes! It is more appealing to look compared to bare lush green lawn. May be I miss seeing an empty green lawns. We all have green thumbs at home and we value the harvests of what we sow. So, I guess bermuda grass has no place in my parents' home.

The global economic downturn fails to sustain the interest rates of borrowing. Just yesterday, I have read that one bank in this country is increasing the interest rate of home loans since the demand of housing increase due to cheaper cost of borrowing. Well, the law of demand and supply really hold true. If I have a down payment, I am also one of the borrowers, specially this time that my favored location is on the way building condominiums. Right now, all I could do is watch the hammering of the steel buildings. Like others I am also dreaming to live in home where no one dictates because right now we are living in an apartment. One day I will!

I’m not really in to diet yet since my weight is still readable in the scale. But last night, we had a dinner out escapade in the buffet restaurant. I ate a lot and I could feel that my tummy is close to my bosom. Yes! I ate that much and I will not eat anymore for two days except liquid. Gosh! I ate too much and I bet it’s worth more than 6,000 calories. Its payback time to shed some excess unwanted fats. I could eat steam veges and fruits which are my daily foods, still I felt bad to myself ate too much bad food. Guilty banquet it was!

Today’s fad of being healthy and body fit are the most known to everyone’s daily regimen. Who is not in to it? Without a doubt we all wanted a healthy body. Personally, being physically fit will boost my confidence and I could enjoy wearing my clothes size. Unlike, when I’m bit chubby all I could wear is always with the bigger size to hide my extra skin. If ever that there is really best weight loss pill out there that could help me shape up, I could try. Well, I’m not that desperate yet because I am still in the petite section, but sometimes when my tummy is bulging rushing to get rid of it is always the case.

I mean, outing. We had a blast last night to one of the best buffet restaurants in Toronto. Our last buffet was in March, and yesterday I asked my hubby to spent time for me and our son. He’s always working even until late night, thanks’ God for that. I ate plenty and lot until I felt exhausted of the foods. On the way home, I could not move on my seat not even chatting to my hubby. Ha ha ha! My hubby was laughing out loud. See, this is the problem when you are stuck at home as in almost forever. Going outdoors to indulge is like heaven. In this difficult times, when cash is limited staycation is always the best option, but there should be once in awhile excuses to enjoy and get away with the burn-out and boredom.

For the last the ten years, I have lived to at least three countries and perhaps this could be the last country I hope to stay. I promised to myself that this is my destiny country and I will live here forever with my family. Do you want to experience the cross country moving from down under to Asia and then to Canada? Why not give it a leg! Well, if you have extra guts to try it soon, better start doing it before fainting on the plane on the way to Canada. Yes! It happened to me and I will do it again if given another chance.

This is about sex. There are many articles out there that speak about sex education for protection. It could be to the person involve or the fruit of sex itself, child. Do we really need to educate our kids about sex? Or, we will start talking about responsibility. I studied reproductive organs when I was 11 years old but it’s not sex. Then, family planning seminar before graduation in high school and later enrolled to 3 units required subject about family planning, parenting and social interactions right before University graduation. The subject’s that all of us attended the class religiously out of curiosity about the subject itself. We all grew up in a conservative families and communities that strongly follow the moral values of Christianity.

I am speaking about my time, whatever happens in today’s youngsters that would be out of the question. As I remembered, we were taught on how to be responsible to our actions, and for every immoral act we partake. We will be judged accordingly, it could be emotional, physical and worst respect. Personally, being responsible to oneself is more important.

Speaking of diaper based on the article I have mentioned below. I am guilty to say that my 3 years old tot is still wearing nappy when sleeping and going outdoors for hours. Well, I’m not that guilty anymore because grannies are also wearing adult diapers. Ha ha ha! I am not looking for alibis to save my face. But hey! You know what? Few of my tot’s playmates are still not potty or nappy train even they are older. I really felt the pressures of the parents because they are still on the hurdles of potty training. I do totally understand the situation.

This is kind a continuation of the story about my son’s love to The Cars and Thomas characters. For SOMEONE who is asking if my son is still wearing a diaper, guilty! Actually, he is already potty trained at the age of 2 and something. Diaper will be used only when sleeping at night not in nap time and when going outdoors. I don’t like rushing and running finding toilet when my tot needs pee pee. Do not worry, he will never poops in his diaper it also disgust him.
