Monofilament Wigs and My Aunt

Wednesday, March 24th, 2010

My favorite aunt had breast cancer. She underwent chemotherapy when she found out about the cancer. Unfortunately, the treatment made her weak. She was also slowly losing her hair.

I saw that she wasn’t the lively aunt that she was. She did not laugh as much as she used to. She was more careful with how she moved about the house. I guess chemotherapy does that to its patients. However, I am proud to say that my aunt is a strong woman. She may have been weakened by chemo, but her spirit never wavered. She tried to take care of her family, despite the fact that she was just recovering from her chemotherapy.

I remember seeing her put on her wig. She looked at me with her kind eyes and smiled. Little did I know it was one of the last few smiles she would bestow on me. She passed away before the wedding of her youngest daughter.

Anyway, I am no wig connoisseur, but here are a few thoughts.

Monofilament wigs are what I think my aunt used during. According to what I have found over the net, monofilament wigs are good choice for people with severe hair loss. Moreover, it is said that these wigs are comfortable and are not as itchy as other types of wigs. Apparently, a breathable type of material is used so that the scalp will not be irritated from monofilament wigs.

Having said that, I guess it would be safe to say that monofilament wigs would be perfect for those recovering from chemotherapy. Well, unless otherwise not prescribed by the doctor. But if all else is ok, I would assume that monofilament wigs will be a comfortable way for chemotherapy patients to hide their hair loss.

Family Law and its Short History

Monday, March 22nd, 2010

At my age, marriage is not far from mind. There are days I find myself looking at wedding sites, engagement rings, and pictures of families I don’t even know. However, there are also times that I feel I am not ready to have a family of my own yet. So what I did was to read about several laws pertaining to the family.

Family law and its developments are greatly inspired by the Bible. Also, before the Family law was developed, the Mosaic law stated that a man is not allowed to marry the following personas: sister; mother, stepdaughter; half-sister; and the granddaughter in law.

I also found out that the Canon Law or the Catholic Church used to describe divorce as only separation from the bed and board. This apparently means that they are still husband and wife. It was also said that the man was still expected to provide for his wife even if they were divorced. This is called divorce a mensa et thoro. Later on, due to the conflict between King Henry VIII and the Church, divorce eventually meant that the ties between husband and wife would be severed.

I guess divorce in the developed family law is also inspired by King Henry VIII. I am not entirely sure if I am in favor of divorce. I mean, I can’t imagine living with someone I do not love or respect anymore. On the other hand, I wonder if couples would give it more effort and try harder to keep the relationship work if divorce was never included in the family law.

Liberalhaber’s review of Lexmark X502n

Thursday, March 11th, 2010

Lexmark X502n is a multifunctional printer. It can scan, duplicate, print, and even fax documents. However, you have to consider that this model does not feature junk-fax blocks, secure-receive modes, and group dialing. Other than that, you won’t go wrong with Lexmark X502n. In addition, this printer finishes the job fast. In relation, quality of the printed documents is not compromised.

Like some other printers, this model sports 4-toner cartridges: yellow, cyan, magenta, and black. I recommend using the high-capacity cartridges for best value as opposed to the regular cartridges.

Aside from the 4-toner cartridges, the Lexmark X502n has several other features. You can collate copies; scale documents at 25-400 %; and you can even make 4-on-1 copies.

As for the fax features, a maximum of 20 numbers can be saved on the Quick Dial function. You may even send a fax blast to up to 100 numbers.

Let me reiterate that Lexmark X502n is a speedy product. I can definitely say that having it in my office is a gift sent from the heavens above. So if you’re looking for a multi-function printer, the Lexmark X502n is a perfect candidate for your printing, scanning, and photocopying needs.

Custom Home Builder Made My Dream House a Reality

Tuesday, February 23rd, 2010

I remember moving out of my parents’ place when I was 18. It was surely a milestone in my life. I decided to leave since I wanted a life of my own. I didn’t want to be answerable to my parents any longer. Besides, I’ve been planning to leave for ages. However, it wasn’t easy at all. I had a lot of issues I had to take care of.

Custom home builder was what I needed. I had the perfect house in mind. My problem was I couldn’t make it myself, can I? I have also looked at offices of display home builder. I decided to incorporate some of their designs to my dream house. Afterward, I proceeded to discuss my plans with my parents as soon as I had every detail I needed. They were quite worried at first. However, I brought them with me when I visited the home builder Melbourne I was going to work with on my dream house. They were impressed to say the least.

The luxury home builder I got explained in excellent detail how they were going to proceed with my house. Moreover, they were able to answer my parents’ long list of concerns. I have to tell you that in itself is a major feat!

My dream house is still in great condition after 10 years. I’m more than happy that I got the builders Melbourne I introduced to my parents. My crew loves throwing parties at my place. They say it’s the best luxury home for single girls like us. Now ain’t that grand!
