It was a long weekend indeed. We had an extra day of rest as it was montessori day yesterday so it was also a holiday in my son’s school. Too bad though, I wasn’t able to accomplish much during the long weekend. But I got to rest, a lot! If only we have some comfortable outdoor chaise lounges, the long, relaxing weekend would have been so much better. But I got my bed, so it is still good.

Mini Model Camera
* Ultra-unique replicas!
* Ultimate goody for camera collectors
* Impressive, high quality detail
* 3 detachable lenses/lens hoods: standard, telephoto, and zoom
* Camera body 1″ x 1/2″
* Lenses 1″-2″ long, 1/2″ diameter
Introducing the tiniest camera of all time: The Mini Model Camera, a camera perfectly sized for plastic dinos, Lilliputians, and photo super-geeks!
This rare and tiny gem is a superbly detailed and a very real-looking 1/6 scale model of your own life-sized DSLR with every button, screen, switch, n’ dial in place.
And just when you thought it couldn’t get any more want-worthy, three detachable lenses are included with removable lens hoods, too!
While it’ll find a happy home on your desk where you can lovingly admire it, this charming lil’ replica will also make the perfect gift for your camera-obsessed friends. It’s the hard-to-find camera model they don’t already have!
We especially love this mini cam for all the fun stuff we can do with it: use it as a gift box charm, a pendant for a necklace, or a prop for our stop-motion dinosaur epic.
Toy-model-car-with-the-hood-that-opens, you don’t have anything on our mini-camera-with-interchangable-parts!

Our internet was down for six days and counting, would you believe? The connection was bad for over a month already, but this week was the worst. There are a lot of things that I need to work on online, like look into how to buy gold coins as a favor for a relative, and a few more tasks. If only there was other internet service providers in our area, I would disconnect our current one in a heartbeat. And it would have been alright if I don’t have work. But I do. So now I have no choice but to resort to broadband.

Investing in gold, silver and other precious metals are indeed getting prevalent lately. I even came across investing in gold coins and bullion from Gossip Girl, my current favorite series. For centuries, they have identified gold as one of the best ways to safeguard one’s wealth. No wonder more and more people are trying out this type of investment. If you interested to know more about investing in gold, silver and other precious metals, do visit United States Gold Bureau. Aside from selling these precious metals and they can arrange your purchases to be delivered to you or kept in a safe storage in a bank or depository. They also have a group of hard asset professionals that will assist you through the whole investment process.

We plan to get another insurance for the family. It is one of our priorities in the coming year. I just hope that our budget will permit us to get a much better policy than our current one. There are several online insurance quotes, I am sure we can find one the best suits our needs and budget. I am just glad I can do this thing online. Saves a lot of time and money, too.

Am I thin? I don’t think so. Some are telling me that I did lose weight based on my current photos. But personally, I am not sure if I did lose some weight. My weight is still the same and I think today I gained a few lbs just because I ate more than usual for lunch and dinner. I need to remember this to tomorrow so I won’t overeat again. Anyway, photos can be quite deceiving, don’t you think so? I am still a few lbs shy of my pre-pregnancy weight but I am in no rush to get there. I have heard of apidexin, but for the meantime I will try to eat healthy first and see what happens. As much as I want to brisk walk, I can’t for now because of asthma.
