Replace The Old Tiles In The Bathroom

Stainless Steel TilesHubby is thinking of replacing the old tiles in the bathroom of the vacation home with the stainless steel backsplash tiles.

Stainless steel tiles are so popular now because they are very strong, water, heat, rust and corrosion resistant and great looking.

Perhaps I should also consider replacing the old tiles in the kitchen with stainless steel tiles to protect the kitchen walls.

Buy Discount Faucets Online Instead

The Walmart shooting rumor really scared people off. My vacation homeowner friend who wanted to get some discount faucets for her vacation home at Walmart was so scared that she decided not to go the Walmart nearby her house for a few weeks.

Instead, she bought the discount faucets from another smaller hardware store which was quite a distance away.

Who initiated the Walmart shooting text message and why did they do so? Was it out of hatred towards Walmart?

To Have A Cheaper Metal Steel Building, Check Out Clearance Specials More Often

Metal Steel BuildingHow I wish I had agreed to add a metal steel building behind my vacation home when some vacation homeowners asked me to join them a few months ago!

I saw the completed steel buildings of some vacation homes and I must say that I regretĀ  very much now.

I should have followed them and placed my order together to get a substantial discounted price.

It seems that the only way for me to get a cheaper steel metal building is by checking out the clearance specials more often.

Some Fresh Roses Or Condoms In The Vacation Home?

What should I gift the couple who are going to have their Valentine week at my vacation home?

I am thinking of placing a vase of fresh roses while hubby says it’s more practical to hang a dozen condoms on the Mulberry trees in the vacation home. Very creative idea, darling.

Hubby is curious if this couple will leave behind any lingerie. I must say that it’s possible. Remember I told you last time that a vacationer left her lingerie in the bathroom during her romantic getaway?

Decorate The Vacation Home With Chinese New Year Accessories

Chinese Paper DragonsTo make the Chinese family vacation renters feel at home in our vacation home, hubby and I had decorated the house with some Chinese paper dragons and Chinese New Year accessories.

We even placed two small red packets on the HDTV for the couple’s daughters. Of course, there is money in the red packets.

You know, one of their daughters is called Sasha. Sasha is a hot name now.

Hate Packing, Unpacking, Moving, Laoding, Unloading Stuff …

Hubby has gone out for a few hours now. I wonder if he has finished moving the shipping boxes from our vacation home to his buddy’s home.

His buddy and his family have been relocated to another state and hubby is busy helping them packing stuff today.

As I still have some assignments to complete, I am exempted from helping out. Thank God. I hate packing, unpacking, moving, loading and unloading stuff.

Why doesn’t hubby’s buddy hire a moving company to do it?

2009 New Year Resolutions

I am so happy today. Not only did I get some last minute reservations for my vacation home, I got a payment from an advertising company this morning.

This payment is more than enough for me to spend on some Xmas gifts and also a beanie for myself.

I am sure you must be as excited as I am when it comes to Christmas and New Year. What are your New Year resolutions for 2009?

Last Minute Reservations For Vacation Home

Just as I complained about tight budget this December, I received a few last minute reservations for my vacation home from next week onwards.

I am so happy that money comes trickling in. It’s going to be a more relieving Xmas and New Year.

It’s going to be an even better year next year, 2009.
