I learned that it’s much faster for me to browse my “special” sites in IE than in Firefox. But it will not be an issue regardless of what browser I use if I upgrade or change my laptop and get a much higher, up to date specs. Forever P4 user! grrrr…

I was talking to Cez the other day and I was reminiscing the time when I was pregnant with Vera. In 2005, 3 month before I got pregnant, I was warned by my endocrinologist that I have a great chance of getting Gestational Diabetes when I got pregnant because I had a sugar history that shoot up but not something I have to worry about.

When I got pregnant in 2006, I remember what my endocrinologist told me so I watched my diet. I was not really big when I got pregnant. I only gained about 20 pounds all throughout (and haven’t lost the 15 of it) and some even think that I was just on my second trimester when I was already in my last. I never experienced having maternity clothes, maternity jeans, or the likes. I was not to keen on buying something I wouldn’t be able to use afterwards. I was determined to lose all the pregnancy weight I gain when I was still pregnant. And I think it’s more practical specially here in the Philippines, maternity stuff doesn’t come cheap. But I told hamey that if I was in the US, it will be different. They have nicer, fashionable maternity clothes there. They have Gap, Old Navy and Motherhood Maternity among others.

There are a lot of things I want to do differently whenever I got pregnant again. Well, let’s wait (about 3-4 years maybe) and see what happens. *grins*

Did you know that wipes are not only good in cleaning stuff like the baby’s tooshie, wipes for the hands, mouth or face, counter tops, etc. When I was still working in my previous company, not that they are related with wipes, I learned that wipes are also handy when ever you get accidental spill on your shirt or clothes. It works like those Tide-to-go pens which I haven’t really tried, just saw it in Meijer one time, hehe. But I tried using wipes and it works perfectly well. That reminds me, I have to buy one, since I’m super clumsy. *LOL*

Are you a fan of Sex and the City series (of HBO)? Did you know that they filmed a movie and there’s already a trailer being shown? It says it’s coming out on May 2008, I wish it would be worldwide and not just in the US. If you haven’t seen it, click here to see the trailer. Enjoy!

My inay, an insurance agent, introduced tri-life to us in February 2005. It’s an insurance you have to pay for 21 years (yes, that long). But what’s good about this one is that every three years, it gives you a sort of 10% dividend of your premium. And since we got one it in 2005, we got our first dividend two weeks ago, nice no? And if I’m not mistaken, your premium will increase by 10% every three years. So if you have a 100,000 premium, you get 10,000 on the third year and at the same time your premium will now be 110,000. So after another three years, you get 11,000 dividend and 11000 increase in premium, so on and so forth. Isn’t it great? This was what I wanted to get for Vera when I was still pregnant with her. If not this one, I’d like to get the Dollar Educational Plan for her. And since I’m back to work, I could probably invest before Vera turns 2. I think we already have some family life insurance so this will probably be my next step for this year, among others. *grins*
