Carmina's quest for the perfect display for her treasured mementos led her to an extraordinary find

Carmina was looking for the best way to hang treasured pictures and mementos from a keepsake. I felt it was time to bring them out and display them on my wall. I saw many options, from cork boards to felt boards , but I didn’t want an ordinary board hanging there. I wanted it to be part of my wall décor, placed above my desk where I sit daily—something I could look up at and be reminded of past travels and accomplishments. Some people keep them in photo albums or store them digitally, but I wanted mine on display. What caught my eye from an ordinary felt board something had a roof which remind me a house. The best part it is light weight and it has a mount tape in the back attached to the felt board included was thumb tacks and something else where can decorate. Carmina had purchased the three dimensions roof felt board wall self-adhesive retro premium wall decoration message measurement of 60x80 cm in color camel for 875.00 pesos ($14.34) not including shipping and handling.

Last Minute Shopping

I don't understand why people like to ask something from someone when they already know the person is coming over to visit you and inform you last minute what they request you to bring for you.

This is what I hate the most when they we're informed one month ahead that you will be coming over to visit them.

Later you are talking to them and letting them which hotel you will be staying at during your stay and where you would like to spend time with them. As you have been conversation with them as you give your agenda for your upcoming trip and give all the details where you will meet on that certain day.

Everything is all planned up for your venue you than hear can you do me a favor sometimes you are hesitant to ask what they favor maybe. You don't want to be greedy because that person will be showing you around where you have no clue how to go about in their environment that they live in.

You say, sure what is that favor you want me. The person tells you they miss the food in the Philippines and would like you to bring some snacks for them.

The hardest part when you are not familiar in what they are asking for because too much brain storming in your head.

My family back home does that too often ask me to bring stuff for them and I only have one week to look for what they want.

The worse part when the item is no longer available and the only thing you can tell your family to just buy it where they live.

I have also encounter my in-law asking me to buy something from California and they knew I have been away for more than a month yet they think buying something out of the blue is easy to purchase right away.

This all becomes a headache when you have shipped out boxes ahead of time and thinking you would have space in your luggage for recent purchase you have already made.

This is why I can understand why I have relatives who decide not to tell us when they are coming and just surprise us from their arrival. They too have to deal with family members asking them to buy them certain stuff that they too have no space for what they are asking for.

It becomes a pain when someone doesn't think ahead of time and you get all stress for something that seems already planned in your head.
