We have decided to get a Dog

I mentioned to my previous post that our children are longing to have a pet of their own. So my husband and I decided to get us a dog as soon as we get back to the mainland. It's quite cheaper to buy a dog in here but the problem is the traveling requirements. The savings that we will get in buying the dog here will cost us much in transporting the dog to the mainland. We will just wait till we get back, but yeah, in 60 days, we will be heading home.

I am browsing for possible source of pet to adopt or for sale and stumbled upon American Animal Care Center through the Merchant Circle. I know that it is still long till the day we return back home but I think it would help us better in finding the dog that we want through the available information online. I also read the American Animal Care Center profile at Lycos yellow pages and learned that they are dedicated in taking care of pets like cats, dogs, birds, rabbits and many other exotic animals.

I am glad that I have found the website of American Animal Care Center because it gives me a heads up of what needs to be done when we are ready to get our very own dog.

Hair Loss Treatment

I always wonder why most of the Hair Loss problem especially baldness occurs mostly in men. Do you notice it too? I am not saying the hair loss only happen in males, there are also case for females but you seldom see it. It says that most of the cause of hair loss condition is inherited. I believe its true because John's Dad do not have that kind of problem and so is his sons. It's the same way with my late father, all of my brothers have thick hair.

My husband has a very thick hair and he feels very lucky to have such a trait. One time I asked him, "If you are bald Hon, would you consider hair loss treatment?" He immediately replied "Of course!" He said that one of his buddies that he used to work with had the same problem and undergone a hair loss treatment. His friend told him that it somehow affected his self confidence.

But because of continues medical research and technology development, Male hair loss can be treated nowadays. All you need to do is consult a physician and he will examine your scalp to determine what causes the problem. After that he can recommend a hair restoration based from his findings.

In about six weeks we are shipping our car back to the mainland so that when we arrived in December, it will be ready for pick up.

But anyhow, we will be needing to have a new Private Number Plates for our vehicles when we come back there. My husband wants to add some personal touch to the vehicle's plate number.

Let me start by saying happy birthday to the creator of this beautiful weekend meme, Sassy Mom. This is the first week of her Meme called Pixel Bug Weekend where you can share about your weekend.
Pixel Bug weekend button 1
We spent our pixel bug weekend at the lake where we usually goes, our favorite place to hangout to enjoy a family walk with lots of fresh air and green scenery. We met a Filipina named Diana and her two daughters.
It was our first time going there where water was very very low.
This used to be full of water when the tide is high
Mr. Impatient want to go for a walk already while Daddy and Rylie were still feeding the fish.
It wasn't as good as when the tide is high because the fish were kicking the mud and we can't see them very good.
Father and daughter bonding.
My burritos found a pile of sand so they played with it.
Even if it's dirty, we let them play because they certainly love it.
Then they wash their hands after wards.
They met this Korean boy who played with them for a while.
She also met a little korean girl on the way
See how low the water is?
Our kids are up to adventures all the time. They're not scared to try things.
After our long walk, my husband and I sat in one of the kiosk but burritos just keep playing
It's nice to see that our kids appreciates the beauty of nature.
She wants to climb the tree.
So Dad came to the rescue.
and helped her.
What I love about this place is that it is full of flowers and tress. It makes your walk truly enjoyable.


So that was how our weekend goes. If you want to join us for our Pixel Bug Weekend fun, just click the link above guys. Happy birthday once again Sassy Mommy!

The Legal Process of Moving.. etc.

We are down to sixty eight days till our next move going back to the mainland. My husband is starting to prepare all the legal documents that we need to do and sign before we started packing. We are all very excited to get back to our own home and be with our family once again. Living in your own home is very much different from living in a temporary house that you were assigned with.

I remember how excited and at the same nervous I was when we decided to finally buy own abode. After looking at a good number of houses for sale that the sale agent showed us, we finally settle to one that bot my husband and I like. Closing a deal involves a lot of legal transactions and signing of documents. We've gone through conveyancing solicitor, a legal document that a property solicitor has done which covers the contract of the sale.

Along with the process of buying a house is the house conveyancing. Since we used a VA loan to finance the purchase, they sent a surveyor to evaluate the house and informed us with the report through a written document. It is the same way if you are selling or buying a property, you will also undergo a process called property conveyancing. Buying or selling a house is definitely a major decision that needs a careful planning and decision making.

I am glad that my husband is almost done with his services in the Navy. Although I enjoy traveling, it is also difficult transferring from one place to another. And that is the nature of being in the military, you have to deal with a lot of travelling if you want to be with your family. But anyhow, 68 days will be over soon and we will finally be reunited with our family back home. The pressure and stress is already getting into me just by thinking of our upcoming move.

I am glad that there are website like Moveme.com because they make moving simpler by offering tips and advise about safe and effective moving.
