Having husband work outside the country is tough. But because of technology somehow we were able to bridge the distance through cellphones and voice and video chat. Having this facility to communicate entails us to look for suitable gadgets to maximize this option for communication. Like I needed to make sure that my internet connection is fast and reliable so we won’t be experiencing a weak signal that will affect the transfer of voice and video over the internet. Also I have to make sure that my laptop is dependable as well as its accesories. I always used a usb speaker to make the sound of the voice of hubby louder so that Anevay would be able to hear him clearly. The speaker helps a lot especially if hubby and Anevay would play. It so nice to see them interact through the video cam. You can see Anevay make face and giggle when hubby make face in return. In this way the longing is cured even temporarily.

A gripping pain in the left side of my chest. I felt it while I was busy cooking lunch today. I was perspiring heavily. But unlike the first time I was having an anxiety attack I did not panic. I sat down and started to put myself at ease. Maybe, just maybe, I felt it because I was busy working. Maybe, just maybe, it’s nothing.
But I know myself to disregard it. At the back of my mind there is that discomfort knowing that I am prone to heart disease becasue of my prolong intake of prednisone. Then there is my weight. I have not been exercising this past month and I know it somehow affects my body.

Eversince I had credit card trouble during my first year of employment, that was way back 1999, I become a wise Credit Card user. The trouble is not that big but I have accumulated around 10k of credit card debts that at the time I was having a hard time paying because of my lupus expenses. You know how hard it can be to be sick especially on the financial aspect. Especially the test that you have to take cost a fortune. When I was able to pay my debts, I swear off having credit cards temporarily until I know I have the discipline to be a wise spender.

The discoid rash that is. It’s on the right side beside my mouth. It’s red and flaky and its bothering me. I wanted to peel it but I know I would just worsen the case. Having a rash because of lupus is no stranger to me. In fact I always say that I should be thankful for the appearance of a butterfly rash on the early part of my diagnosis because it stop the clueless doctors from assuming and treat me as a guinea pig.

Finally after a week of not being able to talk the husband for a week I was able to catch him online. Last week, he was in Germany for his training. So our usual routine of being able to talk online was affected. Because of that we made sure that we can chat last Friday and Saturday. And fortunately Anevay was her usual talkative self. She is conversing with her Daddy through skype and then was able to make faces and giggles whenever Daddy would return the favor of trying to make funny faces. This really made my day.

A blogger friend, Che have told me about this movie. I have the trailer in the tv but have not paid much attention to it.
The movie stars Toni Gonzaga and Vhong Navarro. Based on the trailer I concluded that Toni G.’s character is suffering from a certain disease because they were anticipating her 25th birthday. Some of her relatives were not able to reach their 25th birthday. And then Toni G was sporting a short hair on some scenes.

Being a computer science graduate one of my greatest dream is to be able to develop a restaurant supply chain management software. A dream that is close to being impossible especially now that I am focused on being a stay at home mom. But when I see software like those, my mind would go and simulate the logic behind the program and from time to time I would browse the internet for companies that are on the field of programming to have the knowledge of the going ons on the field of software programming.

As a LUPUS patient, I know the signs of a flare. I made it a point to really know my body. Knowledge of the symptoms of a flare and what causes it is very helpful especially for a disease like lupus. Right now here is my checklist :
Hair fall…..check
Weight loss…check (not gradual)
Joint pains….check (slight pain)
Rashes…check ( i have a reddish one beside my month, it is irritating)
Fever….no (thank God)
Loss of appetite…50/50

I am too lazy to blog. You know why? Because I am busy doing some online shopping. lol! Someone should chained me up so that I can stop squandering my paypal money. There are so many tempting things online. I was looking at Shopwiki just now because I wanted to know what’s their health and beauty buying guide has to offer.
Being a lupus patient have made me a little bit wary when it comes to beauty products. I make it a point to research everything about the product I am going to choose, especially when I will be using it on my skin. So its also my top priority to read on the Skin Care Buying Guide Products.
