Hubby is so excited about growing a mini vegetable garden. He started with the sili labuyo plant (chili pepper) which I bought from Halamanan sa Pasig last month. I also purchased from them three Bacularis plants which are known for their air-purifying quality.
He got inspired by the siling labuyo plant that he decided to also plant tomato seeds, spring onion stalk, more sili seeds, and later kinchay or Chinese celery.
Update: We have already picked at least eight ripened chilis. Their so small but spicy.
We’ve got tomatoes growing right here. I’m excited about this project. We’ve been planning to have our vegetable garden for so long and it is slowly being realized this year.
Update: The young onion (upper right corner) and the celery (lower right side) died. The tomatoes grew a bit.
Planting is one of the small things that made hubby and me happy these days. It’s something that eases off our stress and worries from day-to-day activities. We are not getting any younger and simple activity like this is beneficial to both our mental and emotional health.Â
My certified plantito hubby. 😀 This batch (of the plant) will serve as a fence right outside our window to secure it from irresponsible neighbors who leave their garbage and whatnot on the sidewalk.

1. Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
Some positions require the constant use of the hands. When this happens, and the hands are not held at a proper position, you may start to feel aches and pains down the road. Carpal tunnel syndrome develops when the median nerve gets compressed by outside pressure. The result is aching, numbness, tingling and an overall weakness in the hands. If left untreated, it may require surgery to release the compression.
2. Trip and Fall
Falling at work may seem embarrassing, and you may find yourself jumping up to avoid any unwanted attention. However, that tumble may wind up costing you if you don’t pay attention. Hairline fractures, strains, and sprains are just some of the injuries that may result from tripping and falling. Be careful that the floor you walk on is even, and that carpet is not turned up or frayed. Also, look for debris and spills that are not cleaned up.
3. Headaches
Work can be stressful, and the strain it causes may end up in debilitating headaches. When the pressures of work get to be too much, you may start to develop migraines or tension headaches, both of which require ongoing treatment. If you find yourself with a massive headache at the end of a long day, and the trend continues, you may want to speak to a doctor.
Finding yourself hurt as the result of job duties may qualify you to file a workers’ compensation claim. Get help for doing so from a professional to maximize your return.
