Driver's License Renewal at LTO near Alabang Town Center

Two weeks ago I accompanied my husband to renew his driver's license. We live only few minutes going to 

Alabang Town Center so we went there instead of going to Las Pinas or Imus LTO. It cost us almost 1K for the drug test and for the renewal fee. It took us about two hours to finish everything. He now has his new license which would expire after 3 years. 

Next year we are planning to buy a 2nd hand car before we move to our new house. I hope our budget will be enough to get an old car or maybe an owner type jeep. I asked my husband if he still knows how to drive, he said it would be easy to recall once we have our own vehicle. I hope our plan will take into place and he will be able to use his new driver's license. ^_^

Early Christmas Bonus

Hooray! Our 13th month was given along with our payout this mid of November. I thank God for this early bonus. Unlike my officemates who bought different gadgets, me I used it to pay a lot of things. I was able to pay debts, utility bills, tuition fee, our house etc. Our birthday is coming this Saturday and Sunday, me and my husband. We are planning not to prepare food since we are going to join our officemate next week to visit Baguio City. We will spend a little money there instead for our celebration. I've been there 3 or 4 times, what I really enjoy their is the cold climate. We are still thinking if we will bring baby Daniel with us. See you soon Baguio!!!!

Lunch at Taalena

Last Sunday, November 7, we are invited to go to Tagaytay to have lunch because it was my niece (Anne Keren) birthday. We attended worship service first at Lighthouse in Alabang before we went to Tagaytay. I remember I ate their before with my mom and dad but I think its name is not Taalena. Maybe the restaurant now has a different owner. I don't know. Anyway the view is very amazing. You can see the beautiful Taal volcano in the middle of the lake. The food are also delicious at the right price. 

House Visit

Yesterday my mom and dad accompanied us visiting our new house. We have a scheduled visit to check the house and file for any complain. David, my little boy, is excited to move in. He said he wanted to have a room with her little sister. He is also very happy when he finds out that our bathroom has a shower, hehehe. Its only a small house but at least it would be something we can call our own. Right now we are just living in a small room at my mother-in-law's house. We've been staying their for more than 5 years now. Me and my husband are also excited to move.

Some of the complains that we file are cracks on the wall, broken faucet, a hole in the roof, unable to fully open main door due to unlevel flooring, rusty door knob, meralco post not yet ready... etc. We were told our complain should be fix within two weeks. While waiting for it I would ask my husband to process the Meralco application.

Good Gift for my Brother

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of SPOT. All opinions are 100% mine.

My brother Dennis is a mountaineer. He is very adventurous, loves hiking, going to different places and really loves being with nature. On our computer before I saw a compilation of his trips. Picture of being on top of the mountain, swimming in the falls, going to mouth of Mt. Pinatubo, a volcano that erupted before in 1991, different beaches, I even saw him having picture with a tribe of people living in the mountains. Because of this hobby he was able to travel to different places and knows a lot people. He works now as a tour guide to mountaineers and he also do package trip to different places.

I am sure the SPOT Satellite GPS messenger would be a good gift for him. At least with SPOT his wife and my mom will have lesser worries because they will have better communication with him. He does have a cell phone but in some hidden or far places most of the time there is no signal. SPOT uses 100% satellite technology so wherever he goes he will be able to communicate with just a push of a button. 

I would be great to get SPOT this holiday season because it comes with a bonus adventure kit worth $50. The kit includes a coupon for 15% off basic service, a custom form fitted case for spot, a micro LED flashlight, a bandana with safety tips written on it, durable lanyard to hang SPOT, safety whistle and a carabineer keychain.

Notice of Turnover

Last week I received a "Notice of Turnover" letter from Prosperity Builders Resources Inc. Our house was approved by Pag-ibig in August and I started paying Pag-ibig the following month. In the letter it was mention that if I will not pay the turn over fee and sign the turn over papers it will be considered as constructive acceptance. Which means they are no longer liable for any loss or damage of my property. I can no longer file a complain to them to fix what ever is defective in our house. Thanks to my mom and dad who accompanied us going to Baclaran, where Prosperity office is located.

We arrived there around 3:30pm and we were told that their cashier is already closed and go back instead on Nov 2. Haayss... Good thing we went to the 6th floor and find out that the cashier is still open. We are able to pay and process the turn over. Still I am not satisfied with their service. The guy who assisted work very slow and was still able to eat junk food and chit chat with his officemate while assisting me. He also printed a lot of paper which I think is part of my turnover but is not. They are still using a matrix printer, I think he spend 20 or 30 mins on it which I believe he can do later. haaayss.... I just need to take all this hassle for the sake of our house... Anyway later this after we will go the site to check our unit and get the keys. At last!

Ofloxacin for UTI

Last week we had our APE (Annual Physical Exam) at work. I was surprised when last Thursday the nurse handed me a prescription of Ofloxacin 200mg. I was told I have UTI and need to take the said medicine twice a day for 7 days. Another urinalysis is needed after that. 

When I went to Mercury Drugstore I was asked if I wanted just the generic and I said yes. Each tablet cost P28 so I paid P392 for my whole week of medication. Haaysss.... medicine in the Philippines are really expensive. I wonder how much is the non-generic. 

I am not feeling anything bad so I don't know that have UTI. I started reading about it and find out that it is more common in girls than boys. Sometimes you would not really have a symptom. It is said that you must submit the midstream of urine to avoid including bateria from the genital area that can confuse the result. The urine I submitted is actually the first stream. I don't know the probability of getting the bacteria from the outside part. However one thing I noticed then was my urine was so yellow. Anyway I am drinking the antibiotic now and will have another test after a week. I hope the result will be fine.
