Life’s Lessons

The DLPC bill was delivered too early in the morning and I was really surprised with our power bill. The first bill we received last month was only PhP254.53 (64 kwh) with only one week consumption. Now our whole month power bill is PhP1,927.19 (249 kwh). It’s too early to be stressed! Don’t tell me I need treatment for wrinkles sooner than I thought. The scorching summer heat makes me turn on the a/c unit during afternoons especially when I take a nap because Daddy has been using the electric fan then. Daddy is not used to sleeping with an electric fan but since he turns it on during his nap, it means the heat is too much. We’ve been using the rice cooker twice a day so I might buy a pot for cooking rice so we can save a little bit with power consumption. We’re using CFLs (compact flourescent lamps) to save electricity but we haven’t replaced the incandescent bulb that was in the other room.

Hope next month our consumption will be lower because we have already installed window blinds for the a/c not to overwork during afternoons and Daddy is not around so our electric fan is not in use most of the time, and the light that he usually forgot to turn off is rarely turned on now. On the lighter note, what is PhP1,927.19 in exchange to the comfort that these electrical appliances has been giving us?

It’s final! We’re moving next week! I’ve talked to the apartment owner yesterday and was so relieved that we could move even if our contract will end January next year. So the contract is just for formality’s sake.LOL. Without asking Ace, I decided to move on the 16th or 17th. I don’t need to ask him because packing will be a one-woman show so I just gave myself one week to pack things. After this move we will definitely be needing more home stuffs such as cabinets because the house has no built-in cabinets in the bedrooms and even in the kitchen. Yay! Time to shop! But definitely not yet the right time to buy gold bars! I hope more opps are coming my way so we could buy what we need ASAP.
