More blessing for 2011

2 Replies

Hubby was thankful that we were able to accomplish many of our plans including repairs for our home last year. From our little savings, hubby got a chance to construct a new concrete fence (of course with the help of  some workers) and tiled our bathroom in 2010.

We also bought a new washer to replace our 11 year old pre-owned washing machine. And to conserve a little energy, we bought this LCD television for our sala. Our next purchase list will include memory foam mattress and study table for the kids and a Sofa bed.. All our purchases were made possible by the payment for a translation project last year. Hubby and I hope that we will have another project coming for 2011.

A quick visit to the grocery store

I’m a little busy these past few days because the carpenters have started the construction of our fence and gate so I don’t have the time to leave the house.

Today, the carpenters took a day off to cast their votes for the Barangay and Sangguniang Kabataan (Youth Council) elections. If the weather permits, they will resume work tomorrow for some finishing touches and painting.

I might visit the nearest grocery store later today to buy the following:

  1. bathroom tissue
  2. acne wash
  3. bath soap
  4. shampoo
  5. toothpaste
  6. powder detergent
  7. fabric conditioner
  8. and fabric bleach

I hope to do my blog hopping and commenting tonight. So, see you later guys. Muah! 🙂

For the waterless days

steel-barrelsWe are looking for local dealers of cost-effective stainless steel barrels in our area. This is in preparation for the unannounced waterless days. Sometimes the water company is doing some maintenance work in our area without warning that we failed to store water ahead of time. Additional water containers will spare us from the inconvenience of temporary water shortage and the extensive water shortage due to the declining levels of water in dams.
