bothered by hair loss

01.31.2012 by // 10 Comments

It all started when I got pregnant + shows no sign of stopping! Every morning, I wake up to a few loose hair on my pillows. + when I sweep the floor, the amount of hair that has fallen + mixed with dust + dirt is really getting into my nerves. + don’t even make me talk about the hair on my bathroom floor, I would really go ballistic! Even my little man is annoyed by all it! At the rate my hair is falling, I’d probably turn bald when I am 50! A thought that actually brings me chills.

I must admit, I have not really taken much care of my hair of late, thus the nagging hair fall incidence. I haven’t got a hair trim for ages now+ instead of air-drying it after shower, I immediately gather it in a bun so it won’t get in the way while I do my mothering chores. The only care I’m giving it really is conditioning it regularly + using a hair fall control shampoo {which obviously is not doing the trick } If my hair could talk, I bet it will tell me to give her a break!

I wanted to put an end to this dilemma, so I did a bit of research. Not long before I discovered the solution to my problem, I stumbled upon these old hair myths + don’t we all love to bash myths

Ideal Financial Aid for Copywriting Job

01.30.2012 by mumwrites // 1 Comment

Statistics showed that more than 80% of households in the United States have a computer. It is no wonder on-line jobs have become so sought after. Everyone wants to work from home, to make a living from the comforts of your favorite armchair. Almost everyone who has grown up in this age of computers is proficient in the use of them, making using the computer for work, fun or profit quite accessible. Of course the down side to this is that there are also millions of other people doing exactly the same thing. Learning how to write the story or article that is the most interesting, the most informative, or the most intriguing is the key to being successful in this very competitive field.

Searching the Internet for advice on the “how to” of good copywriting and one point recurs. The copywriters who are making the money at it are good at it. They know how to keep the reader interested. They have done their homework, researched the topic and have reliable information about the topic. When a Google search can produce literally thousands of articles about any topic out there, the odds are staggering as to which one article or blog will grab the interest of the reader. Fortunately, not all readers are alike, giving the copywriter the opportunity to appeal to different people at different times, on
different subjects.

It’s this mum blog‘s turn to join Weekend Blog Follower Caravan this week. + our task is to gain more RSS Feeds followers by following others in return.

I was delighted with this new bit of information, so I went on to add all the relevant social media that I can. +, look, the diminutive widgets can’t be missed, they are just sitting on top of my sidebar + if you’re looking for the RSS Feeds widget, just click on the first one {the yellow bug-like thingy, yes! } + it will redirect you straight to my feeds. Of course, I will be more than happy to return the favor, just leave me a note telling me where to follow back, right?

my little man is 29 months old today!

How quickly time flies, I still remember the day when my son would fit into my folded arms perfectly like it was yesterday. The days zoomed by + now I am not sure where have all those times gone? I now have this not-so-little toddler, that when not everyone is presuming he’s 4 years old, they are inquiring rather curiously whether how old he is. A few months from now + I will have a true-blue three-year old + as much as I am thrilled at the possibility of him going to play school soon + mum bringing him there armed with all the accoutrements needed for every toddler activity at play school, I just wish time would run a little slower so I have some more time to baby my little man.

I miss those days when we celebrate his turning a month older, just before he turned one. We’d have a little celebration at home: buy a cake, cook pasta or something + take loads of photos! Nowadays, I make sure to inform him that it is indeed his month-birthday + we’d sometimes do something fun or go to the mall to spend the afternoon there. Much like we did yesterday He is needing a hair cut quite badly so that was our main reason for going to the mall.
