Our Crowning Glory Restored

They say that hair is our crowning glory and it defines our face. It has a great effect on the way we look as it can enhance our simple looks and it can also lessen our beauty if our hair became grey or thinner than it used to be. There are many causes of hair loss and for women I learned that factors like heredity, stress, hormonal imbalance, severe sickness and aging affects them in some ways. When our hair starts to recede we sometimes lose some of our confidence and it can develop into inferiority complex.

Now that modern technology can be applied on almost all field of studies you can get the doctor’s services to help solve your problem with your hair. The only thing that hinders many people is the hair transplant cost which is a bit expensive. Well it is really expensive because it depends on the sessions, procedures used and where the clinic or hospital is located. You can get a lesser cost if you hire a private doctor because you’ll be able to save on the cost of expensive clinics. Each individual has his own hair problem and you’ll just have to ask Dr. Pistone’s Hair Restoration specialty for free consultation on your hair requirements. This way you’ll be able to afford having your hair restored together with your confidence.

:TC - Weather - Sunny

Thursday Challenge

"WEATHER"
(Sunny, Calm, Rainy, Snowy, Icy, Fog, Clouds, Thunderstorm, Lightening, Hail, Windy,...)

This is a shot depicting a very sunny weather as the scenery here shows beautiful blue skies, white cloud, luscious greenery and beautiful small fountains all over one swimming pool here. It should be as this is the resort where we spent our Mom's 78th birthday last May this year. This is in total contrast to the last typhoon that hit Luzon, Philippines Tuesday night.

Patio Furniture

I want to have some renovation in the upper floor of the house in our Master’s Bedroom so we can make our lower ground bedroom into a study or music room. I just need to make some good budgeting on our finances so I can save for it. I’m also thinking of renewing our terrace there because sometimes I want the fresher environment in the upper floors. Our upper terrace or patio has not been used for months and I want to put some nice Patio Furniture for a cosier look. I’m thinking that it’s a waste to just let that beautiful spot be like a display only as we’re not using it.

I remember we used to stay and linger there to relax and enjoy the cool air breeze when I was younger. There being on the upper part of the house you’ll get to see the clouds and sky on a much advantageous level. I can take my shots of the sky there without interference of people. Now as I’m looking on some beautiful Outdoor Chaise Lounges I’m beginning to have nice ideas of what I want to do with our upper patio. Well if you visit CozyDays you’ll have plenty of ideas too because they carry a wide range of classic and modern Outdoor Patio Furniture which is of high quality yet inexpensive. They have everything you’ll need for your patio be it chaise lounges, furniture, dining sets, fire pits, chairs, tables and more.

Slow Metabolism

Have you ever tried to go back to your old form when you were single? Well most of the new Moms had but not all have been successful in obtaining their objectives. Our metabolism slows down when we reach the age of 30 so the most successful in getting back to slimmer form are those who are under the age of 30. So that explains why even we decrease our intake of foods we only shed few pounds off our bodies. Those who really need a quick trim should consult their doctor on how they can do it because they know better. Well we also need a lot of physical activities like workouts, exercise, walking and sports. Also try not to sit for long hours as it may add up some bulges in your tummy. Remember that as we grow older our metabolism slows down so we better move and be active.

Getting Discounts from Wholesale Prices

I’m looking at some gadgets I want to buy from my favorite one-stop media provider when I suddenly remembered to buy dozens of blanks CDs for backing up my files. It’s cheaper buying them in bulk because you’ll get a wholesaler discounts. We also have a need for blank CDs always so it’s a lot more convenient to have more stocks. It’s like buying things like pouches, school supplies and clothes which have discounted prices when you buy in bulk. Even then I don’t buy things in dozens when I don’t need them because it’s not a good habit when you buy things you don’t need.
