Best Place to Get Information on Contact Lenses Technology

>> Apr 22, 2010

My sister in-law wears contact lenses for years; she doesn’t like wearing eyeglasses. In our last conversation, she said that she wanted to change her current contact lenses, because she felt it’s not comfortable anymore.

Contact lenses are placed directly on the cornea. I really agree if she switches it to use
latest contact lenses which are more comfortable and healthier for her eyes. I also recommended her to visit clearycontacts.net to get more information about new contact lens technology.

Clearlycontacts.net offers comprehensive information on
contact lens technology that is available in the market. It’s a site that you should visit if you really want to know more about contact lens technology!

Is Your Child Afraid to Sleep?

>> Apr 20, 2010

Dear parents, is your child facing problems to sleep? It can make you dizzy, right? Don’t worry, this time I’ll share the ways to handle your child’s problems. In her article, Teri Cettina wrote about seven problems that can occur to your child while going to bed. Hope it can give you more useful knowledge. Here they are:

1.Problem: Your child gets up repeatedly after you've put her/him to bed, calling, “Mom/Dad, I need a glass of water.”

Why it happens
: Kids make bedtime curtain calls for many reasons. Preschoolers may be asserting their independence: “You can't make me stay in bed!” Or they stall because they're afraid of the dark. The most common reason, though, is that you've slipped from a consistent routine you had when they were babies.



How to rest easy: Before-bed routines are important for children of all ages, says Lynn D'Andrea, M.D., director of the Pediatric Sleep Disorders Center at the Children's Hospital of Wisconsin, in Wauwatosa.

The evening ritual could be as simple as reading your child a story and wishing him a good night. Another tool is a bedtime pass, a card your child can turn in for one nighttime request. Preschoolers also benefit from rewards (like extra playground time) for staying put.

2. Problem: Your child is scared―of the monsters or even a house fire.
Why it happens: As kids wind down, it's normal for anxieties to surface. Your preschooler is easy to worry about what lurks in the shadows, while an older child may have relatively realistic fears―of robbers, for instance.

How to rest easy: A night-light to chase away dark and a few squirts of anti-monster spray (tap water in a specially marked bottle) are often enough to settle down a young one. Jodi Mindell, Ph.D., an associate director of the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia Sleep Center, said that imaginary fears can be handled well by imaginary solutions.

If an older child is a worrier, ban scary movies and books at night. If he/she worries about intruders or natural disasters, chat with him/her about these issues well before bedtime. For example, you can ask, “What would you do if we had a fire?” Having an escape plan for an emergency could also help your child relax.

3. Problem: Your child can’t fall asleep, and then it takes a marching band to wake him/her up in the morning (hahaha).

Why it happens: Kids can have insomnia for any number of reasons, from drinking caffeinated drinks at night to schoolwork anxiety.

How to rest easy: Revisit the basics. Make sure your child has a bedtime routine. If you notice that he/she can’t fall asleep until late (say, after midnight) and sleeps in when allowed to sleep on his/her own schedule, he/she may have delayed sleep-phase syndrome, which is more common in teens (stated by Judith Owens, M.D., director of the Pediatric Sleep Disorders Clinic).

This can be tough on both your child and family members who are on more traditional schedules, so ask your doctor for a referral to a sleep specialist. Professionals can help shift your child’s sleep time closer to normal.

Other tips:

  • Have your child avoid screen time (like the TV and the computer) for at least half an hour before bed.

  • Turn down the lights to help his/her body prepare for sleep. Come morning, open the drapes and turn on the lights.

  • Make sure he/she gets up at a consistent time (although an hour later on weekends is OK) so your child will be tired at the same time each night.
I still have four other problems. I’ll mention it in my next post. See you…

CC : When We Watch Movies Together

>> Apr 15, 2010


Watching movies together can become very enjoyable activities for couples. For me, it’s also a good way to ease stress. We seldom go to the cinema for watching movies together; the last movie that we saw was 2012. Most often we rent or buy DVD and watch it in our bed room; or just watch movies that shown on television.


We like watching movies; but we have different preference. I like animation, fantasy and sci-fi movies; but hubby less like it. When I saw Harry Potter or Star Wars, he said,”It’s too impossible!” Of course it’s impossible; but it’s very interesting…

I’m so glad that hubby doesn’t like bloody and horror movies (makes me can't sleep). That kind of movies that I avoid to watch! Movies that we can watch together are action, suspense, and comedy. He is a huge fan of Steven Seagal movies; but I’m not. I like his Aikido moves; but for me, he isn’t a good actor. His face looks always the same, whether he acts for sad, happy or angry scene. But we love Jet Li and Jacky Chan movies; we always watch all their movies together; so fun…

While watching movies; hubby often annoys me with questions. He can’t read the subtitle fast; so he misses it often. Sometimes I have to read aloud the subtitle for him….pheww….

Have you watched Prison Break the series? We are addicted to Prison Break! It’s the only one movie series that we adore together. I actually also want to collect Heroes the series; but he doesn’t like it. Perhaps I’ll buy it later and watch it alone.

Watching movies with our spouse should be a fun activity that makes you closer each other. My advice, pick only movies that you can enjoy together; unless you want to sacrifice, hahaha.

My Money or Our Money?

>> Apr 12, 2010

I guess every married couple has different way to handle finance. Whether they combine or separate their finance. They can do whatever; since they feel that it’s right and most suit for them.

I won’t mention here what experts said about this. But for me, since I got married, there’s no more ‘me’, there is only us. I think as a team now. So, there’s no such thing like ‘my money’ for us…

We prefer to combine our earnings; and then divide it into several posts, including posts of our personal needs. If we want to buy ‘fun’ stuff, it should be kept within reason and not hidden. What about you?
