Enjoying Outdoors with the Family

We always have a plan to decorate or renovate our living room to become more inviting and welcoming to our visitors and guests. It would also be more relaxing to see the beautiful interiors when we come home from office and also for our kids. Since it’s adjacent to our terrace the plan would extend to it and to our backyard patio. We can always arrange some of our plants and flowers and trim the fruit trees there.

Then of course adding some outdoor furniture and propane fire pit would finalize the effect of a good bonding environment for the family. Playing, studying and even family conversation are possible in this place, we can also use our outdoor being an extension of our house and still feel at home. Sometimes it’s better to stay in your backyard patio and have some picnic there than go out somewhere to spend the night. Besides we could always invite our relatives and friends to join us for special occasions without having to spend much money.

Backyard Gatherings

During my family’s out of town fellowship here in nearby southern provinces of Manila we always choose venue with large outside garden so that we can enjoy night activities and experience the beauty of the sky through the help of the moonlight. Before the sun sets selected young people gathered pieces of dried branches of trees and burned it. The heat coming from the bonfire helps to ease the coldness of the evening. 

Now we can also experience all those things even we’re only in our own backyard patio. With the use of space saving outdoor fire pit in our garden patio we can also relax and enjoy bonding with the family on lazy afternoons and romantic evenings. Best of all we can invite friends and relatives to spend the day or special occasion with us without spending too much money and without leaving our home.

Clothes for My Girls

Summer season is still here and because kids are on vacation most of their time is spent viewing their favorite shows on television. Every weekend we go to the nearest shopping mall to shop for food and eat together. We’re also preparing for the opening of school and we’re looking for the things they would need in school together with some shoes and bags. We’re also checking out some clothes at some stores and online at apple bottoms for the girls’ blouses, shirts and dresses since they’re growing up so fast and in little time their clothes would not fit them anymore. 

Since I’m somewhat particular in style and designs that fit our taste I’m glad that they have various styles for my clothing requirements for my kids. They also have different style of shoes, nice accessories, jackets and a lot more. All of these high quality products are offered with discounts and affordable prices.

Online Security for My Kids

Now that I’m not a full time work at home Mom I’ve been making plans on how I can control my kids’ usage of the computer and the net. DH is monitoring them at home since he’s on a school vacation also but I’m finding some ways on how I can monitor all their daily usage of the net. They’re still young and I don’t want them to be exposed to adult sites. Sometimes when we’re surfing for sites we accidentally encounter sites that are not good for viewing especially for kids below the age of 18 and I don’t want that to happen to my kids. Besides some sites could also be a threat to the security of our computers as few of them carries viruses that might bring to destruction of our stored files.

I’ve been searching for a service that would give me assurance of Content Security and solutions to my specific requirements of online security and monitoring. I want optimum protection not just for the computer but for my kids’ exposure to bad sites as well. I want to feel assured that even if I’m not at home physically monitoring my kids I can filter out adult and inappropriate content and monitor activities on their social networking membership. I also want to protect them from the widespread cyber bullying that will give them bad experience of people that will give them headache. 

Well there are sites that I’m considering to take and I’m taking all advantages and benefits before taking any of them. With all the requirements I need to satisfy I should ensure that I get all of my needs within a single package of security and protection. I heard of parental control software that will monitor kids’ internet activity 24/7 and I think that would be fine as it will give me a view of what they’re doing in the internet and to limit their internet schedule and online time. With this kind of security I can work in my office with peace of mind that my precious kids will not get into any trouble and will not be exposed to bad elements online.

Quality and Stylish Home Lighting Fixtures

I've been browsing some nice houses for sale when I came upon those who have beautiful chandeliers and garden lights. It feels so romantic having those lights in the garden while relaxing and making some lazy chat with your husband. It pushed me into thinking that maybe I can also make some lighting makeover to our own garden and patio as well. It's easy as long as I can get a good supplier for the home lighting fixtures that I need. It should also be affordable as my budget is limited. This is the month for the kids' enrolment in school and much of our savings went to their tuition fees.

Well since my brother is into construction business he is well adapt with where to get affordable things for the home interiors. He's also very good in designing interiors for homes so he can help me with my new project of lighting makeover. Anyway when I saw what Echo Lighting Design can offer I didn't bothered my brother's time as there is wide selection of discount lighting fixtures that I can choose from for my home needs. I can now design the lights for our living room, kitchen and dining rooms and if there's an excess budget I can do with some for the bathroom as well.

Lighting can make or break the house interiors. It can make the room lonely and dark with the wrong choice of lighting and it can make the room inviting and so elegant with quality and stylish fluorescent lighting fixtures. You can define your character through your home interior lighting and design a totally different ambiance on the exterior lights. The whole point is that you can play with lighting and create your own ambiance. You can make it cozy, warm, cool, chic and inviting depending on the kinds of lighting you choose to have. I opt for a warm inviting look because I want my visitors to feel that they're welcome to my house.

Netbook Reviews

We’ve dropped by the mall on lunch break to canvass and compare various models and prices of fax machine for our new office. On our way to shops that catered office equipment and computer accessories my eyes were caught with netbook on the glass stalls there. I love the small computer gadget and have read some netbook reviews on my chosen model before I visited the shops so I have ideas of the pros and cons of certain equipment.

Well I didn’t encountered negative reviews as the netbook I love to buy has all the needed specifications for a lasting usage. I noticed that some have put nice discounts on the tag and if only I’ve brought money maybe I’ll be tempted to consider buying lol! Good for my budget that I didn’t have money that time. Anyway I still have laptop computer with me which I’ve bought almost a year ago and which has served me a lot on my online writing and blogging work.

Transferring to Another Land

Few years ago my office friend resigned because her husband was given a promotion  to a new provincial assignment and they’re to relocate all their furniture, belongings and cars. They have arranged for the shipping of their home furniture and appliances and for the Auto Transport of their two vehicles. Moving was kind of tasking for her because they have to pack almost everything they own for a 5-year stay in the Visayan region. They don’t know anyone there and they would have to start a new life with new friends, neighbours, new community, new school for the kids and a totally new location. 

They’re now back here in Manila after years of staying on that place and they’re back to their old house and living normally as if they’ve only spent vacation on that region. And every time I see Car shipping across the roads I always remember how they’ve transferred their life and live in a strange land. I also learned from her that when you want to ship your car you have to remember few important things like advance planning, type of auto carrier, preparing your vehicle for car shipping, check insurance, know what to expect and ask question of auto transport company.
