Travelling Season

And what do you know, just a few more days left and it is Christmas! While most of the people I know will be celebrating it in the comforts of their homes, I know some who will be observing it away from home, in their relatives. Frequent travelling, especially by car can be very tedious and tiring when you are driving yourself. It can take a toll on you because you are tired and lack sleep. Many people realize this that is why, affordable care hire are also popular during this season. They opt to rent a car instead of driving themselves to save their energy for all the merriment that they will be attending. They get where they will be celebrating the holidays with minimal cost but full of liveliness. If you are also travelling this holiday season, check out a trusted car rental where you can find affordable vehicle for hire.

Keep safe while celebrating the holidays

To welcome the New Year with a complete set of hands and intact limbs is a nice present to yourself and your loved ones. This holds true for people who couldn’t help but light fireworks and firecrackers to celebrate the New Year.

Recently the Department of Health issued an advisory reminding the public against the dangers of lighting fireworks and firecrackers. Under the firework-injury reduction campaign dubbed “Aksyon: Paputok Injury Reduction” or APIR (Give me five), the DOH reiterates suggestions to keep safe while celebrating the holidays.

1) Fireworks cause injuries and endanger health (Mapanganib ang paggamit ng paputok)
2) Children should not use any fireworks (Lahat ng paputok ay bawal sa bata)
3) Keep safe and away from exploding fireworks (Umiwas sa mga taong nagpapaputok)
4) Never pick used fireworks (Huwag mamulot ng mga di sumabog na paputok)
5) Seek immediate medical treatment for all firework injuries (Magpagamot kaagad kapag naputukan)

Everyone deserves to be happy and safe so don’t do anything foolish to endanger the lives of other people and yours as well. Keep safe and welcome 2012 with positive thoughts.

Beyond the merriment

I got all these valuable items from the first Christmas party for bloggers I attended at the Legend Villas in Mandaluyong City last Saturday.

Everyone enjoyed the games (I particularly enjoyed our version of Pinoy henyo where me and Tetcha were one of those who won a prize). Each mommies exchange gifts and went home with loot bags containing the following items:

  • Soyami Soya Chips,
  • Walter Double Fiber Wheat Bread,
  • Maya Fluffy n’ Tasty,
  • T Shirt and Token from Unilab,
  • Ainon Baby Products,
  • Proud Mama products (bra extender and kiddie shoe bag),
  • Johnson’s Baby Powder

Yours truly with Ms. Joy handing out some prizes.

There were a lot of prizes and we even had random drawings every 30 minutes! Included in the prizes for the random drawings were:

  • active health bag and T Shirt from Unilab,
  • Ainon Products,
  • Johnson’s Baby Powder,
  • Playtex Quick Straw,
  • Maya Hot cake,
  • Walter Double Fiber Wheat Bread,
  • Gift Certificate from Ipanema,
  • Rider Sandal and Grendha.
  • Massage Package for 3 moms courtesy of Mommy Leirs.
  • Soyami Soya Chips was given to the kids instead of giving it as raffle prizes.

The first ten moms who arrived got a Body Shop lotion each, while Tetcha gave some token for the first ten moms too!

Mommy Beds took home the grand raffle prize from Tintin Bersonal- Babao and Parentin.tv, the First Philippine Online Parenting Show. Miss Agnes of Ainon drew the grand prize winner while Miss Sheryll of Proud Mama dropped by for their products.

Beyond the partying and merry-making, the small group of mommies intends to raise some items including old (and new) clothes for mommies and babies, toys, books and other tangible items that can be of help to an organization that caters to abandoned and abused women and their children.

We hope to add more items for the institution.

The program is made possible by the sponsors I’ve mentioned above and the beautiful mommies, Peh and Ms. Joy, who put all their efforts together to come up with an enjoyable event for mommy bloggers. Until next year. 🙂
