Faster Work with Some Innovations

When I was in my first job in Semiconductor Company I was assigned in header assembly and I really enjoyed my job considering that my course is related to computer hardware. Header assembly is part of joining the components for transformer and I learned a lot about the real world of hardware besides the theory that I had in college. 

We used high technology materials in assembly and I was awed with their Loctite components which locked the standup to the PCB just like high heat epoxy which they used as good potting materials. I wonder how they do assemblies now that innovations have reached up a higher level in technology. I reckon they can do it faster than we used to do it considering we’re really fast way back then. Technology has doubled up men’s capabilities in doing things and it also lessen workforce as well.

Shopping Tidbits for the Family

We’ve done with our shopping for our fellowship vacation needs in Baguio except for some tidbits. I’ve only bought clothes for the kids because I didn’t want to shop when I’m bigger than I was. I will shop for new clothes when I’m done with shedding some pounds and that will be on summer…maybe. Anyway there are some school essentials that need to be included also like gifts for the classmates and friends of my kids.

I also included little gifts for the patient teachers who guided my kids throughout their learning period. While shopping I saw some ultimate looks wigs that can be used for parties with costume. Even though it’s my birth month and it will fall 4 days before Christmas I really don’t mind skipping shopping because I need to save my funds for our forthcoming vacation. I know it will be all worth all my frugal ways.

Sweet Family Memories

We’re preparing for our fellowship vacation these days after we have finished with some spring cleaning in the lower ground of our house. With the onset of floods in our town we find it necessary to replace our almost four decade sofa built by my father in his younger years. He was so keen on creating furniture after his carpentry course that he almost completed our major furniture in the house consisting hardwood sofa with leather seats, wooden octagon table, various square study table, few corner tables and wardrobe cabinets including small wooden storage for jewelries like rings, women's necklaces and other valuables. 

I grew up seeing all my father’s creations inside our house which was also designed by him and all of which are making me sentimental and emotional every time. My father is gone 16 years ago but his presence is all around us which makes us feel that he’s always here making sure that we’re ok and fine even if he’s not with us anymore. Sometimes to fight the feeling of missing him we think of the times when we’re happy on our picnics together and all our outdoor activities which he loves doing when we’re still young kids. He even bought a land and turned it into a farm and fish pond to stay on weekends and vacations. He loves taking the family out to the countryside when he’s free and I missed it. I just love sweet family memories.

Fire Prevention and Safety at Home and Conferences


With the increasing occurrences of natural catastrophe and accidents it’s good to keep in mind safety precautions in order to lessen if not prevent those things that can happen to anyone anytime. At home you should keep a list of possible causes of fire and let every member of the family know how to do regular monitoring of the listed items. It’s better to be always aware of your surroundings inside and out so you’ll be alarmed if something cropped up. 

Well some have the advantage of preparing safe items that could prevent it from occurring or withstand it when it’s already there like a fire resistant printed tablecloth and other flame retardant digital printings that can be used in conferences but safe enough for the fire. Glad to hear about these things as it’s good to be equipped with knowledge on fire prevention, safety and protection as well.

French Chairs: Your Entrance Into the World of Interior Decorating?

If you’ve got the budget and imagination for it, interior decorating can be a good extra-curricular project for you to undertake – there are few things more satisfying than completely transforming a room in your house (or all the rooms if you’re so inclined) and giving it a fresh new look.

Inspiration can come from anywhere: films, TV design programmes, magazines (celebrity, design or other). There are no rules in this area, though you may want to consider the knock-on effect of those lime green walls and black-and-white checkerboard linoleum when it comes to selling the house, if you ever intend to. Also, you may want to encourage repeat visits to your home from friends and family, which won’t happen if your décor looks like a giant’s thrown up some Skittles all over the house. 

A popular style of décor currently is inspired by the opulence of French design from the 16th and 17th centuries before the aristocracy was overthrown in the late 1700s. The style in some ways mirrors British style from the same period (examples of which can be seen in almost any National Trust manor house property), with plush furniture, ornate carvings in table and chair legs and backs and high-quality finishes. Colour-wise, the style favours light pastels like pinks and blues, making it ideal for a bedroom in which you want to evoke a peaceful atmosphere. 


If you don’t want to go for a complete remodeling of a room, you can just invest in a couple of pieces of furniture instead – just two additions or changes can make a massive difference and totally change the feel and look of a room. Adding an option from the varied ranges of French chairs that are available from a range of retailers both instore and online to sit by the window as a reading spot is fine, but why not combine that with a new dressing table or a four-poster bed to evoke the luxurious personal apartments of Louis XIV? 

Equally, you can go for different styles, like English country rustic or a slick ultra-modern shiny look – the choice is entirely yours, it just depends what sort of thing you like (but if you’ve got young children or are thinking about having children, it’s probably best to try and ensure that your rooms are suitable for them and won’t be completely ruined if they spill something or stain anything). 

The most important thing to remember when you’re planning your new décor is to set a budget and stick to it (though you can give yourself a bit extra for contingencies) – this way you won’t find yourself spiralling down a black hole of despair and debt because you wanted to spruce up the kitchen. Equally, if you’re not sure about exactly what sort of pieces you’re looking for, it can be worth your while to hire a professional designer who can take the style you want to see in your home and then make it as close to a reality as possible. 

Whether you want to turn your home into an English cottage or a slick, modern bachelor pad, there are hundreds of design and furniture options available – all you have to do is (somehow) choose between them!

Home, Love and Music

Family makes a happy home and when it’s surrounded by people who loves and cares for each other home becomes the best place to live in. Since it’s the place where we stay most of our times away from work it should be nice and cozy for us to be able to relax and enjoy our times with our family. Oh how I love spending my work breaks at home when I can talk and listen to my kids’ school and daily stories. 

Home is also the place where my kids learn to play musical instruments by themselves. After enrolling them in Basic piano and drums lesson they continue learning musical pieces by self study and online tutorial. When they play the piano at home during weekends I feel so relax and rested. I’m imagining how cool reason refills at musicians friend would contribute a lot in the quality of sounds at home. I’m thinking of variety of sounds and styles of music that would be created and I’m sure it will be lovely.

Wishing for Special Guitar

I came home last night finding my daughter playing with her guitar in front of the laptop. She’s learning some music pieces via computer tutorial and she’s finding it so engaging that she forgot she would have to eat dinner first. My daughter is so engrossed in her guitar playing that she didn’t noticed me looking seriously at her smiling. 

My daughter is so fond of tinkering various instruments but her guitar is her most loved instrument so far. Since her current guitar is just the ordinary type she told me that she would love to have a special one like classic omce for her collection and for special guitar playing occasion. She’s fine with her guitar but in time she’ll need high quality instrument for better playing and for their church choir presentation.

Preparation for December Fellowship and Family Vacation

The youth in our church are gearing up for our camp meeting and as early as now they’re assigning tasks per group. They’re also searching for new songs for choir presentation as they seem to present familiar songs always. As the fellowship is coming near they noticed that they need to replace some microphones for better voice quality. Someone suggested a quality one to last for long period usage and for this they want to buy boom mic to accommodate and harmonize with drum and amplifier as well. 

Early planning and preparation is very important so we can have a fruitful and fulfilling fellowship come December. High quality musical instruments and accessories are also a good contribution for a successful occasions thus it should always be checked and noted for repair or replacement. Since we’re having it in Baguio this time maybe we’ll have some adjustments to make. We’re all excited for the coming fellowship vacation.

Maintenance of Plumbing Fixtures and More

Home is where our heart is and it should be the best place to stay so we can relax and rest the way we should be. To maximize the optimum condition of our house we should ensure that all equipment is in good working condition. The different rooms and areas must also be in the best condition possible so we can use them in every way we want. Well this sounds so easy but it’s not because maintenance requires time and attention to be able to monitor them all and see if there are repairs or replacement needed. 

I know this because in our house I help my husband in checking and ensuring that everything is in working condition because we don’t want to spend huge amount of money in major repairs. If you monitor your home regularly it will not reach major trouble or repair because you’ll be able to see it early in time. 

There are areas that are easy to control and maintain like living room, bedroom, study room and dining room but when it comes to kitchen and bathrooms there are more fixtures that need constant checking. I’m talking about things that concerns tubs, toilets, bathroom fixtures and things concerning plumbing. It needs professional expertise to repair so we should have our regular plumbing maintenance and repair service company like  plumbing Merritt Island which ensures that all plumbing installation and repairs are properly taken care of. 

They offer various plumbing services for residential and commercial with problems in electric water heater, fixture replacements, sewer and drain stoppages, slab leaks, video sewer inspections and even remodeling if you need one. You need not worry about such things as the small fixtures in your house like sinks, tubs, toilets, faucets, shower, garbage disposals and related things because their technicians can very well attend to them all with high quality service.
