My Valentine Wishlist

I guess it is not really bad to wish for some presents  this Valentine's Day.  It is normal for women to be happy when they receive some presents during this special occasion.  I  may  have a lot of Valentine wishlist but most of them are not material ones. How about you?

Praying for Good Health Always for the Whole  Family

Foe me, this is  the first thing in my wishlist. Health is wealth and we can never buy it. You might be able to  afford medicine and to pay for hospital bills but still  you can never buy health. This is the reason why I am always praying for good health always for my family, friends and relatives. Of course, we also need to take care of our body by not taking vices like drinking and smoking.

Love and Harmony in Our Home

I never  had a big discussion, misunderstanding  or quarrel with my DH. We always talk about things. We respect each other and  respect is  always the foundation of love. If there is respect, there is love and when there is love, harmony always prevails. We may not have all the luxuries in life but we have  the basic things a man needs to survive in this planet...Food, shelter and clothing are the most important ones.

Chances and Opportunities  to Travel  More

It has always been my dream to see the beauty of this world.  I am thankful that I had  already seen a part of it. Having been to over 30 countries, I still want  to experience more. This planet has simply a lot of  amazing places to explore. Even one life is not enough to see everything. This is the reason  why I want to travel when when finances, time and health are still present.

MOST OF ALL, I PRAY FOR PEACE TO ALL MANKIND.

Enjoy your Valentine's  Day but be safe! God bless everyone!

Busy Sunday Doing Home Chores

Hello February! The love month is finally here! I just hope that you did had a wonderful month of January. So far, everything went great for me and I believed for my whole family as well. I am quite happy and contented with what I had accomplished last month. I might be little things only but for me those were already great ones. Besides, I learned to be contented with small things. We sometimes disregards little things but these are the things that are really important and make us truly happy. Well probably because, I only have shallow happiness.

Today is Sunday, the second day of February. Nature woke me up at 8:00 in the morning. I usually wake up at around 9 especially during weekends. Since I need to do some personal necessity this morning, I was forced to wake up to go to the bathroom. I did not went back to bed anymore and decided to take my tea time. While eating two toasted bread with butter and marmalade on it, I was also listening to the radio. There were  good songs played  that morning especially from Adele and Bastille.

After taking my light breakfast, I did the laundry. Now, it is done but still need to be folded. I was also dusting my ceramic and porcelain collections from Italy and Poland. The vitrine or glass cabinet was also cleaned. I can't imagined the dirt and dust with all of these stuffs. I am glad that I already started the ones in the dining room.

After that, I started cooking for lunch. I only cooked scrambled eggs with onion and tomato. I also had some bacon and German sausages. Since there were rice left-over, I did fried it and had a delicious fried rice with Paela powder.

This afternoon, I already started my online tasks including  blog hopping and updating some blogs as well. It is almost dinner time now. I need to prepare for dinner before DH comes.

Probably, this evening I will be watching  my favorite TV channel, the Welt Spiegel or World Mirror. It is actually a news reportage from around the world.

I guess that is all for now. I have to sign-off for awhile and prepare  our dinner. I wish everyone a great month of February, full of love, contentment, happiness and blessings!

Take care everyone!

Tips on How to Conserve Energy While Saving Money and Helping the Environment

Conserving energy is a big concern for everyone these days - if not for the sake of helping the environment, then for the sake of saving money on utility bills. One myth about greening your home is that it takes a lot of money to start with or that you have to buy all-new appliances if you want it to make any difference. That's simply not true. Here are six easy ways you can "green" your home without paying an exorbitant amount.

1. Stop Using Paper Towels
You can keep a couple around for emergency spills, but for house cleaning and regular use, go for cloth washrags. Keep a lot of cloth rags on hand so that you always have one handy when you need it, then just toss the dirty ones in with the laundry whenever you do a load.

2. Unplug Unused Electronics
Even when your electronics are off, they can still consume lots of energy if they're plugged in. Save on your electric bill by unplugging your laptop, phone, and even your TV when they're turned off or you're not using them.  

Knowing this Musical Instrument Called Cello

Have you tried watching  an orchestra show? Did you experience watching a musician who plays a musical instrument called Cello? If you ask me, I haven't been to an orchestra but a good friend of mine experienced one in Prague, Czech republic.

One time when I was watching a musical show on television, I saw someone who beautifully played the cello. I admired her for her performance which was really fantastic.

Perfect Gift for a Music-Lover

Anyone in the family who loves to play any musical instruments? His or her big day is about to come and still don't know what present you can give? You don't need to worry anymore. Choosing the perfect gift for a someone who love to play musical instruments is not that difficult.  If he or she loves to play a guitar, why not buy him/her a cool fender telecaster modern player. Who knows your loveone will develop  his/her talent for music  when he/she is practicing the right musical instrument. More on that, who knows he/she might be successful in the future . Good luck!

The Durability and Convenience of Aluminum Hand Rail

Designing rooms in your home can be a fun adventure. If your room contains stairs, you will have to choose what type of stairs you want to install, whether you want to have carpet on them and what type of hand rail you would like running parallel to the stairs. When you want quality and durability, you will want to choose aluminum.

A hand rail made from aluminum will give you a lightweight product that has the durability to stand the test of time. You can find aluminum options in all sizes and shapes to meet your design needs. If you are decorating an outdoor space, you can still use an aluminum option because it is a material that can resist damage from excessive heat, cold and other weather elements that may be a normal part of your particular climate. Aluminum hand rails also work great when you are designing commercial spaces. It can save contractors a few dollars and provide the designer with an interesting option to design around.

DIY With Our Clogged Sink

After

This week seems to be a very busy week. There are a lot of offline chores that I need to do including organizing many stuffs at home.  Top on the list  is to organize my computer or working room. I also need to pack the box that I will be sending home next week. I already started packing it and hopefully I can finish it before weekend. This coming Monday the logistic company will pick it up.

Before

Tonight, there was one thing that made me proud of myself. After eating our dinner, I always wash our dirty dishes because I want it all to be cleaned the next day. While letting the water  drain in the sink, I noticed that it is not  draining.
