Before we put away our spenco sandals we are going to head out to the beach one last time before the weather turns too cold for the beach. So we hope to head out to the city this weekend and visit Peggy’s Cove and head out to the waterfront or the beach if the weather permits if not, we will have to swim in the hotel’s pool. I don’t know if we are going to have time to head out to the city again anytime soon but I’m hoping it won’t be too long before we go again because of my Chinese/Japanese food and the swimming pool in the hotels that we stay in. I’m so looking forward to this weekend and if you are wondering why we didn’t go during the long weekend, it’s because nothing is open during the holidays here.
Buying Branded Watches
September 24, 2012 · By · Leave a Comment
People bring in all sorts of things to the store and asked if we buy them and unfortunately, there are some stuff we don’t touch like jewelry but I’ve yet to see someone bring me some branded watches because watches raymond weil are what I’m actually looking to buy. Not the men raymond weil but the ladies. I loved good watches and ever since coming to Canada, I haven’t found a watch store that carries Raymond Weil. Raymond Weil is a well-known brand and been around for many years and if someone brought me one – I can tell the difference if it was a genuine one. I’m an avid watch collector before coming to Canada, whenever I travel – I buy watches because I feel that having a good watch is much better than having a diamond ring in the working world. When you wear a Raymond Weil watch, your business associates or co-worker would straight away identify you as someone who loved quality stuff. Rolex are everywhere – but a Raymond Weil, it can be worn from day to night.
Yoga During Lunch Time
September 10, 2012 · By · Leave a Comment
Yoga during lunch time is definitely not a bad idea at all. I go here for yoga ball planning to do my own yoga at the store but I found out that there is a local studio that is doing yoga session during lunch and I decided to enroll in it. So what I do now during lunch time is go for my yoga and come back and have a very light lunch like a sandwich or a salad. Healthy living got to begin somewhere right? I’m just hoping I continue to be motivated, maybe I should make my girl pals go with me – that would be much better you think?
Males Nurses Needed
August 15, 2012 · By · Leave a Comment
The boss and I just came back from a visit to the hospital. We went to visit a friend who just had a baby and we both agree that more male nurses is needed in this town. The male nurses in mens scrubs and not only good looking they are definitely more sympathetic and has more empathy than the female nurses it seems. I wished more men would go into this profession because when I was in the hospital a few years ago, it was a male nurse who was very kind to me, when my mother-in-law was in the hospital, it was the male nurses who helped the most and today, we watched a male nurse in his colorful and cartoony scrub play with a bunch of sick kids and doing magic tricks to help them past the time in the hospital – it was a heartwarming sight.
The Musical Float
August 7, 2012 · By · Leave a Comment
Yes, the musical float as expected from the Lion’s Club during the parade for Seafest 2012 and the band was playing some funky songs with their ricky . They were all dressed up for the occasion – like the sea color but they should actually do the pirate’s costume instead. But they did sing well and they were really quite entertaining for the crowd. Everyone loves music and a musical float with a live band is always a welcome change. As you can see – they had quite a few instruments on board and a very loud speaker and the words – four guys playing the guitar and 2 others singing – now if they had some beautiful girls swaying and dancing that would have been perfect.
Trucking Along
July 26, 2012 · By · 1 Comment
So the boss bought a truck – a few years ago and his reason was to move stuff from the store to home and vice versa and sometimes to deliver stuff to customers. Well, of course I didn’t stop him from buying it because the truth is we do need a vehicle to move things around – else I would have to beg friends and customers to help us whenever we needed to move heavy stuff around. Anyhow, we got the truck and used it for a few months and then the used truck needed fixing and in the end we spent a lot more money on truck than we had care to. We also looked into some curt trailer hitches to use in the future in case we needed to haul more stuff around like when we are moving the store from one location to another. That way, the boss don’t need to make an excuse to buy a bigger truck. I’ve seen a lot of people using those trailer hitches and it’s easy and very convenient to store away when you are not using it. And the trailer hitch will probably last forever, so it’s a great investment if you ask me.

Busking During Summer
July 13, 2012 · By · Leave a Comment
Busking during summer time around downtown is not an unusual sight but this year – I hope the buskers get some wireless microphone so that they can sing even louder and bring in more people to watch them sing and do their performances. We were in Moncton last week and saw some buskers with wireless microphones and they did get a big crowd of people to see them perform and people who were there appreciated the music more and I saw them collecting quite abit of money during their performance. I loved to see people busking on Main Street – they do make the town a lot more livelier and it’s something that everyone can enjoy even the kids.
Lots Of Wedding In The Summer
July 10, 2012 · By · Leave a Comment
I just saw a bridal car past by the store a minute ago and this is the 3rd one I saw this week. Lots of wedding in this town during the summer – in fact we just came back from one – in New Brunswick and the bride had one a bari jay gown with her bridesmaid. The bride was beautiful and so was her entourage of bridesmaid – we had such a good wedding up in New Brunswick. Summer is the best time for weddings and if my kid grows up and have a wedding I would definitely want her to have a summer wedding too. Just wished they had more places for them to take good wedding pictures in this town.
Swimming In The Cool Summer Nights
July 5, 2012 · By · Leave a Comment
The days are very warm here sometimes but by the time we get home from work it has cool down considerably – making it not so fun having a swim in our outdoor pool. We are looking at getting a heater for the pool but electric swimming pool heaters are not easily found in town – so we had to look for them online. Shopping online is definitely my favorite but which pool heater to buy? but I’m determined to get one because with the pool heater – we can swim all year round without thinking of going on a vacation just because we want to swim in a heated pool. I know the kids in the neighborhood would enjoy that very much too. And I think I found the place where I can get all sorts of pool supplies, now we can all look forward to swimming soon even when we are home late from work.
Enjoying The Summer @ Work
June 19, 2012 · By · Leave a Comment
Even at work, I intend to enjoy my summer this year. Every year , we get stuck indoors but this year we’ve bought some patio furniture to be placed behind the store with patio cushion seating so that we can sit and enjoy a BBQ lunch or some fresh air behind the store. Now are we not smart or what? So we say you can’t enjoy your summer even at work? If only we have a bigger deck at the back of our store – it would be awesome – because we could decorate it with plants and potted flowers now that would be pretty awesome!
New Floors For The Store
May 29, 2012 · By · Leave a Comment
We were looking for garage floor tile but ended up deciding that the store need new floor more than the garage. Now if only the store belongs to us – we would gladly replace the carpets in the store but since it doesn’t why waste money on it right? So the boss gotta talk to the landlord and see if he would do the carpets or else we would have to save the money for the carpet of the store. Now if he is willing to do it – then we can use the money we’ve originally saved up for the garage instead. You see being your own business owner is not as fun as everyone thinks eh. While people think that we are swimming with money and can buy anything we want – truth is we always think of the store first and paying everyone first before ourselves. But when it comes to our kid – that’s a different story altogether.
Babies, Babies and More Babies
May 19, 2012 · By · Leave a Comment
This year is the dragon year and it looks like the town is booming with babies. Well, not only this town – everywhere! my girlfriends from Toronto, Asia and USA all just had a dragon baby each and I’m out buying baby gifts every other week it seems and mailing them out. I figured getting Baby Nursery Bedding is the best buy because they would certainly use it and wouldn’t outgrow it within a few months. I remembered my own kid used hers for years and even though she is 8 yrs old now – she still uses some of her baby stuff . Yes, babies everywhere – we should have open a business just doing baby’s accessories and food.
