Time To Sit Back And Relax

My favorite thing to do in the summer is to sit on the back porch. When it is really nice and warm outside I love to sit in the cool breeze of the summer in our really nice outdoor chairs. We love to fire up the grill and cook outside then eat out there and just soak up all the summer sunshine. I am still amazed that the sun is so late going down here. I cannot believe the sun is still up at 9pm. Where I am from no matter what the sun is gone by 6pm every day all year. But, here I can enjoy the summer evening which last so long.

Crazy Days At Work

I am very busy these days. I work about 8-10 hours everyday, Monday to Friday. In between, I had 15 minutes break in the morning, 30 minutes for lunch and 15 minutes in the afternoon. I feel really tired sometimes but, its fun and I really love my job. Sometimes I miss my Babe Dako a lot while I'm at work because when I started working I didn't get to spend more time with him anymore.

However, we do make up on weekends. More important we both love each other very much. We're both working every day, when I get home from work he comes home too. I figure if I don't work and just stay home all day while he's at work I go nuts! Well, speaking about work, this week was the crazy days in work. I'm not feeling good all week plus were so busy! I know it was not the busiest days yet but it's been crazy with resolving some problems about work stuff.

On the other hand, I'm happy it's almost weekend. Time for rest and spend time with my Babe Dako and of course the unending household chores (~sigh~)

Good night everyone! Till my next post...

Congress Adopt The Stars And Stripes

June 14: General Interest
1777 : Congress adopts the Stars and Stripes

During the American Revolution, the Continental Congress adopts a resolution stating that "the flag of the United States be thirteen alternate stripes red and white" and that "the Union be thirteen stars, white in a blue field, representing a new Constellation." The national flag, which became known as the "Stars and Stripes," was based on the "Grand Union" flag, a banner carried by the Continental Army in 1776 that also consisted of 13 red and white stripes. According to legend, Philadelphia seamstress Betsy Ross designed the new canton for the Stars and Stripes, which consisted of a circle of 13 stars and a blue background, at the request of General George Washington. Historians have been unable to conclusively prove or disprove this legend.

With the entrance of new states into the United States after independence, new stripes and stars were added to represent new additions to the Union. In 1818, however, Congress enacted a law stipulating that the 13 original stripes be restored and that only stars be added to represent new states.

On June 14, 1877, the first Flag Day observance was held on the 100th anniversary of the adoption of the Stars and Stripes. As instructed by Congress, the U.S. flag was flown from all public buildings across the country. In the years after the first Flag Day, several states continued to observe the anniversary, and in 1949 Congress officially designated June 14 as Flag Day, a national day of observance. Source..

Be Beautiful And Sexy

Time to lose those pounds so we can all look good in our bathing suites for the summer. I found a great site with many phenphedrine reviews. They have some great products which will give me that edge to look sexy all summer. Even if I eat too much I can still lose weight. Even though I eat right and exercise I am always looking for that extra help to keep my trim figure.

Really Busy In Work

You know, being really busy with work, I haven't spend much time in the computer anymore. I miss a lot of stuff that I usually do before. It's really hard to manage my time between work and doing house chores. Working full time is not easy! Sometimes I work 10 hours a day as it is required to do so. Even though I have no kid, still find it hard though, how much more when I have a kid to attend with? Speaking of kid, I'm not so sure when were gonna have one-:). Seems I enjoyed my life working everyday.

The Wings Like Eagles Foundation Continues to Soar

Employee-Funded Foundation awards more than $440,000 in first three years

TUCSON (AZ) –The Wings Like Eagles Foundation and it’s Board of Directors, in just its third year of existence, have granted more than $340,000 in funding to 24 community organizations that engage in the enhancement of child welfare, education, the arts, the spirit, the advancement of liberty, and community goodwill. The Wings Like Eagles Foundation was created in 2003 in memory of the late William M. Clements, founder of Golden Eagle Distributors, Inc and has provided benefits to thousands of Arizonan’s statewide. The Board meets once a year to review applications and awards grants ranging from $4,000 to $30,000.

Due to the overwhelming response from community organizations, additional employee committees were established at each branch location in 2004 to review employee-sponsored funding requests. The employee committee meets monthly throughout the year and award grants ranging from $1,000 to $4,000. Over the last two years the employee committee has awarded over $100,000 to 34 non-profit organizations.

In addition to the monetary contributions of the foundation, Golden Eagle employees have also been active participants in many local volunteer programs. Over the last 12 months Golden Eagle employees have assisted with the Salvation Army Bell Ringer, served food in the Ronald McDonald House Chef-for-a-Day program, supported the Volunteer Center of Southern Arizona St. Nicholas Packing Party, and participated in the opening of the Milagro Playground Project.

"The tremendous success of this foundation is a testament to the outstanding and ongoing generosity of our participants, namely our employee partners,” remarked Foundation President Christopher W. Clements. "This Christmas season, we are continually reminded of our good fortune in our ability and willingness to give back to the communities we serve."

The Foundation serves the communities of its founding corporation, Golden Eagle Distributors, Inc. – which include but are not limited to, Tucson, Casa Grande, Buckeye, Flagstaff, Holbrook and Globe and is principally funded through direct contributions of its directors and employees.

Organizations interested in obtaining funding from the Foundation are encouraged to contact the Foundation office at 520-882-1594. Applications for 2006 grant awards will be accepted January 2 – February 28, 2006. Awards will be announced during the more..

Enjoying While Playing

My Babe Dako's son loves to play video games. He can play for hours and hours. Sometimes I think it is too much but really I never say anything because at least he is happy while he is playing. He usually plays on either his DS or an old PS2. The husband is thinking of upgrading him to a PS3 which I know he would absolutely love to have. They have such great prices I am sure we can afford it and even get a whole bunch of games to go with it.

Healthy Foods For Snacking

I think we need to make sure we fill up our fridge with these foods for snacking. Foods that burn calories more calories than they contain. My Babe Dako sent me this link, I believe eating veges is good for our health. Click this Link to learn what food were gonna put in our fridge-:)

Shop With Confidence At POSMICRO

My friend has her own Asian Food Store which I love to go and shop almost every day. It is a kind of small store but I can find all my favorite filipino foods there. I keep thinking they need to get a barcode scanner. If they looked at this website they could put one in their store and it would be just like shopping at the Super Market. They have such good prices I am sure they can afford one.

Gone The Sun

Your sun shall no longer go down . . . for the Lord will be your everlasting light, and the days of your mourning shall be ended

. — Isaiah 60:20

In 1862, during the US Civil War, General Daniel Butterfield wanted a new melody for “lights out.” And so, without any musical training, he composed one in his head.

Years later, the general wrote, “I called in someone who could write music, and practiced a change in the call of ‘Taps’ until I had it suit my ear, and then . . . got it to my taste without being able to write music or knowing the technical name of any note, but, simply by ear, arranged it.” General Butterfield gave the music to the brigade bugler, and the rest is history.

While there are no official lyrics to the hauntingly familiar strains of “Taps,” here is a commonly accepted version of one verse:

Day is done, gone the sun,

From the hills, from the lake, from the sky;

All is well, safely rest, God is nigh.

What a comforting lyric as faithful members of the military are laid to rest! And what hope in the acknowledgment that God is near, even — especially — in death!

At a time when death and evil reigned, the prophet Isaiah anticipated a day when death itself would die. “Your sun shall no longer go down,” he wrote to Israel, for the Lord will be Your everlasting light” (60:20).

For those who follow Jesus, the strains of “Taps” are not a funeral dirge but a song of hope. “The days of your mourning shall be ended” (v. 20). All is well. God is nigh. — Tim Gustafson
