Jingle Bells! Jingle Bells! Jingle All the Way! Oh yes, I already start to hear some Christmas songs the past days. It just remind me of home and I will miss it again this Christmas. The last time I celebrated Christmas in my home country was in 2009. That was really memorable!
The holiday season is almost coming. I believed some are slowly wrapping their Christmas presents especially for their loveones. I am still browsing for an audio interface at Musicians friend. I guess it is a perfect answer to a former colleague who was asking about it. He is a singer and owns a musical band as well. I will show it to him as soon as I can.
I know for sure that I will also enjoy celebrating Christmas in my second home here in Europe. I hope you too!
simply make a positive difference!! life..love..dreams..destiny..ideas...opinions..experiences...

It's Snowing in Bavaria
Perfect timing! My car has its winter tires on now! This is one a must-to-do before snow comes. This morning when I woke-up and looked at the window, the surroundings are already white. Snow is already here! It was a combination of snow and rain and really good for driving.
I should go for grocery shopping today but cancelled it due to the bad weather. I might go tomorrow. If it is not really very important, I always avoid driving and going elsewhere. Continuous snowing is not really good. Good things is, the roads and highways in Germany are being cleaned from time to time by government workers who are assigned in road repair and maintenance.
I guess this is the time to hibernate...Oh well, I still have a lot of things to do offline. I hope I can finish most of it tomorrow. Besides, I need to put my Christmas decors on.

Finally Had My Winter Tires On
I have been hearing weather updates in Bavaria, Germany the past days. It says that it will be snowing starting tomorrow. I am not quite sure if this will affect our area as well. The weather is really getting colder and colder everyday. This is the sign that winter is almost coming. This is also the reason why we already changed the summer tires of my car to winter ones.
One good thing, we always save money when changing tires from summer to winter or vice versa. Hubby's brother in law owns a car repair shop and they have all the equipments with regards to repairing cars including coats machine. I already saw how this machine works everytime we changed the tires of our cars. One good thing, hubby can always use his brother in law's equipments for free, thus saving us some bucks every year.
I am ready for the winter season now including my car. I am always careful when driving especially during snow time and I always pray for safe driving. I hope you too!

How to Warm Up a Home
Now that we are in the midst of winter time, it is necessary that
we figure out a few ways to keep our homes warm and stay that way in
order to save a few dollars in electric or heating bills. There are many
ways to do it but in my opinion the cheapest way to do it is by using
the proper curtains or drapes
that are meant to be used on colder days. From thicker materials such
as polyester to silk, there are heavier fabrics that provide energy
saving warmth while looking great!
Huge selections of curtains or drapes and other
window treatments in which you can find the thermal curtains as well to
use to warm up your home and save a little money on your monthly
electric or heating bills. Thermal curtains are not only to be used as
an energy-saver during winter time but can also be used anytime to
reduce noise and light that are coming in from outside. Not only does
Marburn offer window treatments but other household accessories like
table coverings, rugs, runners, bedding, bathroom accessories and so
much more.
It's a great time to check out online sales with so
many companies offering free shipping - that means no waiting in line or
worrying about sell outs. If you are looking for a cheap alternative to
warm up your home, try thermal curtains and drapes first. This is one
of the best and cheapest way of saving and going green without doing
major renovations - which could take weeks or months (and thousands of
dollars!)

Bathroom Renovation is Over
Building a house or renovating a bathroom can sometimes very stressful. This is especially true if you don't have the right budget for it.
Before we started the renovation of our bathroom, we made it sure that we have the finances to do it. If not, we will for sure have some headache especially in buying all the materials we needed.
Before we renovated our bathroom, we already ordered a bathroom set and started looking for other bathroom accessories. Now the searching and the renovating is finally over. Our bathroom is finally done!

Another Travel Gadget
If you are a traveller, you surely have a lot of gadgets when you travel. I surely do! Yesterday, I went to the nearby town to buy a flashlight and rechargeable batteries. I was looking for maha
powerex brand but I cannot find one in the store. I should search and buy it online but I have no more time because I will be travelling again this weekend. A flashlight and some batteries are only some of the travel gadgets and accessories I bring with me when I travel. I also use rechargeable batteries for my cameras.
I guess, it is time to finish packing up my luggage again. See you soon Basel and Strasbourg!

Thanksgiving 2012
Thanksgiving celebration is over for our American friends. Do you only express thanksgiving during this day or everyday of your life? If you have to ask me, I am always trying my best to give thanks everyday for many things and happenings that comes my way.
Thanksgiving is one of the biggest celebrations and holidays for our American friends. It has been an annual tradition since 1863. President Abraham Lincoln proclaimed a national day of "Thanksgiving and Praise to our beneficent Father who dwelleth in the Heavens", to be celebrated on Thursday. Now it is celebrated every fourth Thursday of the months of November.
I had a wonderful time celebrating Thanksgiving day with friends yesterday. At lunch time, one of my friends invited me to go with them in the US Base near our area. In their Dining Facility or DiFac, a lot of foods were served to celebrate Thanksgiving Day.
I also attended two parties of my friends last night. I am grateful for meeting wonderful people around. Thank you for your friendship and for letting me partake in your Thanksgiving banquet.
