No More Waiting for My Favorite TV Shows

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

One of my favorite bonding time with Bubba is watching Big Love on tv. Yes, this blog is named after that polygamy-themed drama. But of course, there are Monday nights that either one of us or both of us are busy with some other things. But that does not mean we have to forego our Big Love moments. We can still watch it when we both have free schedule. Thanks to Charter On Demand.

When Bubba goes to work, and there's nothing for me to do, I look into the list of available movies and immerse myself in a movie marathon. I mostly watch romantic comedies. There's a lot of choices to choose from. Imagine if you have 6,000 movies and shows to watch anytime I you want.You can stay in front of the tv all day. But of course, I see to it that I take care of the things I need to do before he gets home from work.

What makes Charter On Demand wonderful is that you no longer have to go to the mall and buy dvd's. You no longer have to download movies online and wait for a long time before the download is complete. When I used to download movies on the internet, the content is not what thetitle says. So, it can be disappointing and a waste of time.

For those who have Charter digital, you may not be aware that you can access On Demand for free. learn more at charter.net/ondemand

If you have a Facebook account, you can also get updates and fun extras on Charter’s Facebook page.

Adgitize: To Renew or Not to Renew?

My Big Love ad on Adgitize expired yesterday. With the increase in the advertising fee, will it be worth it to renew my subscription? From $14/ month, it's now $24/month.

As of the moment, I haven't decided yet on whether I should renew my ad. If my earnings is break-even, then I am willing to renew it. Because it means that I was able to drive traffic to my blog without paying for it. From what I read, there's a decrease in the number of current advertisers. I think it's mainly because they were not able to reach $24 before the time they need to renew their ad. The remaining advertisers are lucky because the chance of them receiving more clicks (visitors) will be higher. But I guess I will be observing the outcome first of the price increase before I renew my ad.

Dirt Devil Holiday Buying Guide

This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of Dirt Devil. All opinions are 100% mine.

It's almost December but I haven't created a list yet of what gifts to buy for my family and friends. We are aware that recession had hit us badly that's why my budget for Christmas gifts this year is considerably lower compared to the previous years.

I need to come up with a gift list now. I want to surprise my loved ones. Hence, I would rather buy the things I think they would love rather than ask it from them directly. But still, I am finding it hard to think of Christmas gift ideas for everyone.

Luckily, the helpful Dirt Devil Holiday Buying Guide came to the rescue. It helped me figure out what gifts to give by looking into the Gifts for Him and Gifts for Her section of the site and the buying guide.

Since I do not like going to the retail store because it's so crowded, I think it will be a better idea to shop for the gifts online. Selected items include free shipping. Please note also December 17, 2009 is considered Free Shipping Day. Actually, there's a lot of way to save with online shopping. Another thing you can do is make use of the Promo Codes to get a discount.

Since, it's Thanksgiving and Black Friday this week, you may also check the Buying Guide for Black Friday websites.

Bubba!

I miss Bubba a lot. We no longer spend the same amount of time with each other as much as we used to. We were busy with work and some other things. Back then, I used to think that he might be flirting with other girls behind my back. But things like that no longer cross my mind. I trust him more. I think it also helps that he's always there for me. He never failed to assure me that I am the apple of his eye. I wish we can have more quality bonding moments.

"Just to let you know... I am missing you."

Actually, I am not even sure if he would read this. But the last time he sent me a sweet letter, he said he'd kill me of the content ends up on my blog. lol

"You Gotta See This" Video Contest

This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of Incendia Health. All opinions are 100% mine.

I may have gotten it from reading too much in the dark when I was a kid. Right now, my eye vision is 150/200 and I even suffer from astigmatism. My work entails me to be in front of the computer the entire day. It seems to be making my vision worse.

My friends tease me because I find it hard to recognize them when they are few meters away from me. When I was in college, I had to seat in the front row or else, I won't be able to see what's written on the board. I had to wear my glasses all the time. Too bad, I am very forgetful that I tend to misplace my glasses. Aside from that, even with my glasses on, I am not able to do activities such as swimming and volleyball. My glasses is such hindrance for me to engage in these kind of sports activities.

Fortunately, Abbott Medical Optics Inc. offers laser vision correction services. I have another great news for you. Recently, AMO launched the “You Gotta See This” Video Contest. People are encouraged to make a video showing the impact of improved vision. Of course, there are cool prizes to be won at this iLASIK Video Contest.

First Prize (one in each video category):
HDTV package — a $2,500 value

My Internet Connection is Back!

After not having internet connection at home for 3 weeks, it's finally re-installed today. That means, I will be able to do my regular blogging activities again. Entrecard and Adgitize, here I come! We haven't fully recovered yet from the fire that happened, but we are doing great. I get to shop for new clothes. Actually, shopping for all those things felt like a chore. :)

I have a reason to smile today because I finally got my internet connection back. It just felt like years not being able to get online whenever I want to.

Bubba, thank you being always there for me. You are the kindest, most wonderful person in the world.

Our Apartment Burned Down

Some of you might have noticed my absence from the blogging world. No EC drops, no blog updates, no adgitizing. By the way, thank you for those who consistently visit my blog.

On the night of November 1, our apartment was burned down. We were not able to save any material things. I did not cry over the stuff that we lost. I am just sad that I lost the environment I am used to for the past years. But still, I am thankful that no one was hurt. Right now, we are in the process of looking for a new place to stay.

I believe that when we lose something, it will be replaced by something much better. My faith in God, even in these trying moments, will never falter. It also feels so amazing how kind and generous others can be now that we are in need.

The Aftermath:
