Money Saving

I don’t have a bank account here but sooner or later, we will have to open an account for our money. I think I better keep some money in the bank instead of spending it off on shopping trips!
I haven’t tried online Savings Account before, but it seems like WaMu will be one of [...]

Medical Blog Widget

I’m not working in clinical field, but I have some friends who work in related field. Maybe they will find this free medical blog widget from Epocrates useful if they are running their own websites. They can easily use the widget or provide their visitors a drug reference which is totally free.

C’elle

I only found out about stem cell storage when I was pregnant with my boy. At that time, I didn’t think it was necessary and it’s so costly to do so. But when we had our second child, we went ahead with the storage plan since we could afford it, and we didn’t want to [...]

Husband and Wife Working Together

I haven’t worked with hubby before, even if he has been running his own business for the past few years. We talked about me helping him but I was just too busy with kids previously and his work involves a lot of traveling. We just couldn’t click on together as business partners.
However, our days changed [...]

New Office

I’m staying at home today even if it’s a working day to me. The office staffs are moving the furniture and everything to the new office floor, so it’s best if my kids are not going to the office. From Monday onwards, I will have to walk to the 5th floor, with 2 bags [...]

An Apartment Not Worth Buying

Someone is asking us to buy his apartment over from him to avoid him from being sued by the bank and avoiding foreclosure. We can’t help much since we don’t get anything from this deal, and furthermore, it’s really none of our business even if he is related to us. Why would we get [...]

Keeping Stem Cell

I can’t seem to read from the link at CNNmoney.com but anywhere, I’ve browsed through the homepage and C’elle Client Testimonial. I think I might want to store my stem cell if I can afford it. I’ve just canceled my girl’s storage because we didn’t renew the storage with auto debit! LOL! That’s the [...]

Chaotic

As if my Monday is not bad enough, my kids are messing up the office area again. We have books and toys for them here, but apparently, they are more interested in the office stationery and nosing around. I know that they are disturbing, but I can’t let them watch DVD or playing with [...]

Monday Again

I hate Mondays. It’s the most depressing day of the week, telling me that I have to work 5 more days before the weekend. I don’t feel the difference when I’m not working, but now I have Monday blues. I’m not working officially but I’m bounded to stay at the office looking at those [...]
