Medical scrubs collection



I know this is the third time I've written about Medical scrubs. I work for a healthcare company and I may be required to wear scrubs at work this year on some occasions. I currently don’t wear scrubs at work, because I work at the admin area but when I have work with some people in the laboratory, I will have to wear them. Maybe I will also feel like somebody from Grey’s Anatomy. Just kidding.

Medicalscrubscollection.com has a variety to offer, and they have a lot of pieces that don't look like the regular scrubs, so I can wear them outside of work just like the floral tops below. They have Cherokee scrubs and Baby Phat scrubs. Medicalscrubscollection.com are cheaper compared with other scrub websites. They have pieces for less than $15.00. I’m the frugal type of lady. They have a hassle free return and exchange policy. As for sizes, they have junior and petite sizes too. I’ve already posted here before how short I am.

 They  have a lot of prints and plains but I just put some pictures of printed tops here. I love colors so I can mix and match my clothes better. I'm struggling to go back to basics and buy more plain pieces. I don't think I'm ready yet for the ongoing mix prints right now. I've tried it a couple times though but it's not working out for me yet.

Avista

I can’t wait to go on vacation, next month we’re going to Missouri. It will be my third time to go to that state. We basically go to the same states every time we travel.  Hopefully, this year I will be able to see a new state, and I’m looking forward to expanding the number of states that I have visited.  If we go to the East Coast on a future vacation, it would be good to consider Avista resort in South Carolina. You can visit their website at http://avistaresort.com/.  It’s one of the resorts in Myrtle Beach.  It would be something new for me.  Based on the pictures I saw from their website, it looks really nice. This Myrtle Beach hotel offers a condo-type setting instead of just a room. The beach is only a few feet away.  Since we also have a lot of beaches here, it would be like a home away from home.
All pictures are from http://avistaresort.com/. This post is brought to you by their website.

Mailbox model




These are our apartment mailboxes. I know they are small but if we get a box, then the mailman will put the box in these larger boxes. I’m not sure if both of these are considered cluster mailboxes, but I think they are. Sometimes, for even bigger boxes, the mailman has to call us so we can go downstairs to get our package, or she will leave a form that we can take to the post office the next day and pick up our box. It’s not very convenient when we are at work but somehow some delivery companies know that they should deliver late in the afternoon or even at night. Before I lived in a high rise building, I would only see commercial mailboxes in business areas, but after five years in high rises, I’m used to them  now.

Books


Here are some of RC’s books. Sometimes, I think about going back to school, but one reason why I don’t want to go back to college, aside from mandatory reading of books, is because I don’t want to be in debt. College classes are so expensive now. I know more than a couple people  that are working and going to school at the same time. When they are done with school, they will have to begin paying off their school debt. I really applaud people who have so much ambition because they are an inspiration to me. Scholarships are a good way to go to school, who doesn’t want to go for reduced prices or free? I was just reading this article about scholarships for left handed people. I haven’t heard of it before, but isn’t it great that there’s a website for people looking for scholarships?

You can find articles about African American scholarships and pre med scholarships at Schoolscholarships.org.  Please note that I have not tried applying for scholarship based on their website. I am just sharing the information.


Have a great week!

Wine racks



I’m not a wine drinker, but wine drinkers seem sophisticated to me and wine drinking has become very popular.  Whether you’re a well-versed wine drinker, or simply someone who enjoys a nice glass with dinner on occasion, one of the ways to maintain a proper wine collection is educating yourself on the various types and styles of wine racks. 
Along with wine racks, you may also need a wine glass rack.  Wine glass racks can hold different amounts of wine glasses.  A popular style is a hanging wine glass rack.  Wine glass racks are not only functional in helping to keep the wine glasses stored properly, but they are also beautiful additions to your home,  adding a touch of elegance and class.  Some stemware racks are small and some are large, and they are made from a variety of materials. I would love to have these racks at my home.

Recycle








These are Christmas wreaths that are made of recycled scrap. I like the creativity that was put on each one of them.This was an exhibit/contest that I attended last Christmas season. Going green is really "in" nowadays. Companies are starting to manufacture organic clothing, furniture that is from recycled materials etc. I do take part in recycling myself. I like to thrift and I do collect empty cans and put them in the recycle bin instead of a regular trash can. Companies also do their part in electronic recycling to reduce e-waste. Computer disposal has to be done properly because computers contains some chemicals that might harm the environment.

Even online, we see companies like Round2.net that are commited to responsible discarding of e waste. I learned about how computers are being recycled from their website. It is a great idea to be environmentally responsible. After all, we only have one Earth with limited resources.

PMS

Every month, we ladies experience having our periods. I know I sometimes act like a monster when it's that time of the month. Luckily, I am able to control myself when I am at work or when I am with RC so my  husband is always the victim. He doesn't mind much, I think he got used to it. Sometimes, I wonder how I will be when I someday experience signs of menopause. Insomnia, hot flashes and mood swings are signs of menopause according to Healthline.com.  I'm not sure how I will be affected but it is inevitable. I heard a lot about it from older women that I know. Even if I don't have signs of menopause yet, just PMS (pre-menstrual syndrome), I just blame it on the hormones. It's a great excuse. You have probably heard of the commercial... Have a happy period! I'll try!

Anyway, here is my picture from last weekend after me and RC went to a birthday party. Just a simple black outfit.
