Laminate Flooring

It is the second month of the year and we only have a month to go before our house renovation will start. Right now, everything is almost set but we still need to finish and consider some other things before starting. At this moment, the whole family is still deciding on what color should our house be and whether or not, we will have a laminate floor. I told mom that having a laminated flooring would add that relaxing ambiance to our new house. I don't know, we are still deciding on that.

I just can't wait for March to come and see our new house.

New Entertainment Set

I can't believe it is Friday again! Good thing I already planned my weekend yesterday with my sisters and mom. It's been a while since the last time we hang out and bought something for ourselves. We miss those days when we always go out every weekend with the whole family and have some dinner. This weekend, we will do it again and buy something. Mom said she would purchase a new entertainment set with a box converter. The house been really quite this past month because of what happened last December when a typhoon hit us and destroyed almost all our appliances. But this weekend, we will buy a new one. Thank you Lord for all the blessings despite of everything.

I hope everyone will have a great weekend. :)

Reporting Engine

I've been working online since 2008 and one of the major problems I always encounter is how to make my daily, weekly and monthly report to my boss presentable and at the same time, easy to understand. Some would think it is easy but I admit there are times that it is really hard to make such report. Good thing, I learned about a reporting engine that allows an IT professional like me to create sophisticated production reports that can be deployed for server based, or desktop based applications. Right now, I am using this engine and it did help create reports easily without hassle.
