Happy Anniversary, Sweetie

Seven year and counting. Yes, my Sweetie and I celebrated our 7th Year Anniversary. It was a Monday so there was no celebration of sort. I just bought her a couple of bouquets of flowers and she was already happy.

She gave me a card and a box of chocolate and I was happy.

I am just happy that we reach this far. Our marriage is just like any marriage. We do have our fair share of trials and struggles but were able to overcome them.

I am thankful for having her in my life.

I love you my Sweetie. Happy Anniversary.

Elite Workmanship

When my Sweetie went to visit a friend in New York last year, she was so impressed with her friend’s kitchen and bathroom. She kept on bragging about how stylist and functional and modern her friend’s kitchen. She said that the workmanship of the contractor is excellent. No wonder Elite Kitchen and Bath have been in the renovation and remodeling business for 3 decades now. They have been serving the residents of NY since 1984 and well-known for their great reputation through their work and satisfied homeowners.

In my line of work, I believe that every single part of the house we build, remodel and renovate should be given utmost important. Careful planning and design should be considered in order to achieve the homeowners’ expectations. And I believe all contractors feel the same way. So I am not surprised why Elite KB's excellent reputation is shown in their Kitchen Showroom New York and Bath Showroom New York. Their kitchen and bath showroom New York not only prove a well-executed design but a total work of art.

With my Sweetie’s friend, I believe she was happy with her contractor. She has nothing but positive words for the Elite KB guys who worked on her kitchen and bathroom. She was impressed with the workers’ work ethics and dedication to their job. And she highly recommends Elite KB to all her friends in the Greater New York and Long Island areas who may need their services.
And for that, I can’t blame her.

A new way of gardening

I know, it's been awhile. I've been too busy last winter taking advantage of work since in my line of work... winter is usually a slow season for us carpenters.

I got the green house set up already.

Now, that our yard is cleared of snow and spring is in the air... it's time for my spring hobby - gardening. This year, I am trying my luck in hydroponic gardening.

The DIY pipes that I will use for the hydroponic garden.

I already got the materials and did some DIY to come up with the design that will fit my needs. And what is more exciting is... my Sweetie promised that she will get involved. And that, trust me - is huge! But we'll see. She is scared of dirt, bugs and sun... so I don't know how it will work out for her. LOL

And Sweetie and I already started the nursery.

Meantime, this is just a preview of what I am going to do and will give updates here and there. That is, when I remember to blog about it. Ha!

Some great tips for the changing season

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of North American Property Services for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine.

The change of season is one of the things my Sweetie dreads. I can’t blame her because she comes from the country with only 2 seasons and sometimes they don’t even feel the change at all. Now living here in Maine for more than 6 years, she somehow already adjusted to the different weather and the change of season. And being a bit ODC, she came up with different strategies how to cope with the change especially in the organizing and cleaning department.

Though I don’t really like the idea of cleaning (shhh) I do know something that can help her transition smoothly through the winter season in terms of cleaning and getting our home germ-free through the winter. And that is through the North American Property Services, one of the top janitorial service companies in the United States.

Here are some of the Winter Weather Cleaning Tips from North American Property Services:
1. Be extra careful about hand washing with soap so you do not spread germs from room to room.
2. Routinely disinfect high touch areas such as door handles, TV remotes, and keyboards for all devices, such as tablets and laptops. Don’t forget all of your phones, including the landline and cell phones.
3. Dust carries germs and grime, so wiping down with disinfecting solutions will not only make your house cleaner, but it will remove germs that can cause the common cold and flues. Look for places that dust settles, such as fan blades, window ledges, and walls to wipe away germs. Don’t forget to clean your light bulbs, which has the added benefit of brightening the house on these short winter days. Another thing to clean is the dust balls under furniture and in the corners of floors.
4. Dust more often, as your heating system circulates dust, dirt and germs.
5. Keep mops handy to dry-mop floors regularly, especially around high-traffic areas of the house.
6. On warmer days, clean interior windows, another germ collector in your house.
7. Deep clean your carpets every year to eliminate grime and germs. A good time of year to do this is after the holidays so any spills from your holiday celebrations will be washed away.
8. Scrub the grout in your bathroom with a powerful disinfectant to remove germs that spread between family members.
9. Take your shoes off at the door. Think about all the places you walk and the germs that hitch hike into your home. Taking your shoes off will greatly reduce indoor pollutants.
10. The best winter floor care program is to continue to clean and maintain floor surfaces with extra mopping and scrubbing around the entryways.

Well, I may not be doing the real cleaning but I bet my Sweetie will be just as happy to get her someone to help her.
