The Story of Him and Me

It's been a while...

Let me tell you about a story of HIM and ME...:-)

 I never thought that I'd be smiling as I try to recall how wonderful that special day is...

 Like every other story...

let me begin by saying...

 There was this young girl who always dreamt of the perfect wedding...

 She always dreamt about the big puffy dress...

 The perfect tailored suit...

 The sweet perfect colored nail polish...

 The Cinderella glass slipper...

 The perfect Shiny Groom shoes...and so on and so forth...

 But she was amazed for in reality what she had was more than perfect...

 She saw a Man that makes her laughter sound a lot better...

 She walked down the aisle side by side with her Prince Charming who made her smile a little sweeter...

 She exchanged vows with her Mr. Right that said, " No return no exchange!"...

 She sat beside her better half who whispered... " You look amazing today! " even though her make up almost melted away...

 ...and after everything has been said and done...

 The Story of Him and Me starts all over again...:-)

Growing A Vegetable Garden and Seeds of LOVE

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Miracle-Gro. All opinions are 100% mine.
     The other week I bought a gardening book on easy to grow vegetables. I have always wanted to grow my own ingredients for cooking the healthy dishes for my family. The book gave me ideas what to plant in this season and searching for more information I learned of The Gro Project and got inspired to unearth the green thumb in me.

I would love to use materials around our yard which have been left unused for sometime. I love leafy vegetables which are best to turn into salad matched with healthy dressing as well as veggie vines that bear edible flowers. The fun garden projects I discovered at Miracle-Gro facebook page will help me turn my garden unique.
     I was particularly drawn to this project- The Ukelele Garden.


     Instead of a Yukelele though I think I am gonna use an old guitar and let a vegetable vine grow out of it. A bittermelon is what I have in mind. Squash stems would also look great coming out of the guitar body. I can picture the yellow blooms springing out.
     Now these are the steps for me to undertake:

If The Shoe Fits

I read a funny quote "If the shoe fits.. buy it in different colors !"

Being short doesn't make me feel less of a person especially I am living in a country where majority of people are taller. These cute shoes give me a little boost in my confidence ...and I think they are cute !!

A Beautiful Masterpiece



       He looked at me and said, " Please take care of her...she's the only wife that I've got..." with loving eyes he watched her as she closed hers...

     They held each other's hands as if they've never did it before...She may forget the date today, her birthday, my first name, where she is at the time being but in the middle of the night she'd call for his name and his name alone...She'd cry for hours waking up in the middle of the night whenever she realized that he's not there...I'd come to her aid and say, "he'll be back tomorrow", and with those words she'd stop crying, hold my hand and close her eyes hoping that the next time she opens it he'll be right there beside her holding her hand again...

     He said, " she's the only wife that I've got...and she has been for 64 years ", tearful he'd leave her room and say, " I'll be back tomorrow morning..."

       I'd pass by her room and glance at them and smile... True love is forever...Our hair may turn gray...Our youthful glow may disappear...Our hands may wrinkle...Our memory may fail us...but there's one thing that will never turn gray...never will it take our youthful smile away...it will never wrinkle...and I strongly believe it will never fail us as well...and whenever you were given that extremely special opportunity to have found it never let it go...instead hold unto it...cherish it...and nurture it...for in the end that is the only treasure that you'll ever have...

      True love is a rare and beautiful masterpiece indeed...

Injury Attorney Albuquerque, When The Need Arises


      

     Yesterday I was playing badminton with my teen-age son. As I ran to hit the shuttlecock something seem to have snapped at my lower back and I felt excruciating pain. I panicked thinking I might have sustained a serious injury and limped on my way back to the house. Right now I am still suffering from mild ache and thinking how life and health could change in a matter of seconds because of accidents. I am just glad that I have never been a victim of a serious accident on the road or at work.

     Accidents do happen and the worst injuries may become a nightmare when one is not well represented. I can not begin to imagine how terrible it might be to be suffering from pain and not getting justice. The expense of medical treatment not to mention the emotional and mental suffering an incapacitated person suffers as a result of being injured spells the need for an injury attorney who could study the surrounding circumstances in the incident and studying every minute detail to be able to help one seek justice.

     It is a relief to learn that there are law firms like Dathan Weems Law Firm committed to seeking justice for those suffering as a result of injury. Knowing there is someone "on your side, at your side" in the person of an injury attorney Albuquerque makes one assured of professional service that will make you get what you deserve. Personalized counsel by their veteran attorneys as well as exhausting all possible means to make you win your case and fighting those responsible for your injury through their extensive knowledge and solid strategy is what makes them different and stand out from the others.


    Waking up each morning without aches, seeing colorful flowers and being able to breathe and move with ease is a gift beyond compare. I pray no one ever gets injured again and those who have become victims may get the justice that they deserve to be able to move on in life.

Prickly Poppies

Prickly Poppies, Crucifixion Thorn Natural Area, Ocotillo, CA
We found this field of wildflowers by the roadside on our way to Arizona during our most recent spring vacation. At first sight, they look like matilija poppies, what I commonly see closer to the coast, however, at close inspection, they were not because unlike matilija poppies that have strong stems, the stems of these plants were very soft but were prickly, thus probably the name, prickly poppies.

Later, I learned that they grow throughout the Southwest deserts from California east to Texas and to northern Nevada and Utah. They thrive on sandy or gravelly desert roadsides and washes below 8,000 feet.
