No Need to Seek When it’s Right Before Your Eyes

Shopping online has been my only option in ordering gifts for my husband and my son or whenever I feel like shopping for myself. And that is because I don’t drive yet. I still have to learn and get a license. 

Nevertheless, shopping online is something that I find really fun not to mention, very convenient. I never got to do this back in my home country, thus, I am enjoying it immensely. Aside from the fact that I am always satisfied with my orders, looking forward to seeing the UPS truck drive in our drive way is one thing that I find exciting too. 

Good thing we have a nice Address Plaque that the husband installed years back so my orders never get lost and they always come on time. I think the delivery man is thankful for that plaque because I know not all addresses are visible enough for them to easily see. They can thank my smart husband for that. (“,)

French Broad Overlook

This was the first overlook at the Blue Ridge Parkway and yes, the first one that we checked. There were a lot of tourists that day enjoying the scenery like we did.

You can see the French Broad River in this photo. It is a long river that runs to Tennessee and different other states.

Being the always curious him, he read all the stuff written on that board about the river.

Don’t Let the Sun Get in Your Eyes!

I didn’t bring a lot of stuff with me when I moved here to the U.S. That being so, there were always things for me to buy whenever the season changed. We arrived here in the fall of 2010 so the day following our arrival was spent shopping for clothes and shoes to keep me and my son warm. 

When summer arrived, one of the things to buy on the list was a pair of sunglasses. I left my pair of replica sunglases back home so I got me a new pair here - some Vera Vera Wang sunglasses. I’ve been using them since. It’s one of the things that I can’t leave home without, especially when the sun is out.

Gifts From Afar

Browsing online has been a part of my day-to-day routine lately and that is because I am searching for gifts for my family back home. It is my goal to send them a package this year from the land of Uncle Sam. I have been wanting to do it since late last year, but we simply didn’t get the chance because we were busy with a lot of things.

I already ordered online the things that my mom and dad wanted, and today, I am looking for nursing uniforms for my nurse brother and toys and books for my toddler nephew and niece. I find it easier to browse online because I can look at a lot of products and stores by just sitting with no need to walk miles. LOL. Anyway, I am still looking and comparing prices. I will be done soon.
