Is a Mobile Home for You?

Are you looking for a home? Have you reached the conclusion that the average person simply cannot afford to buy one?

In the last couple of years hundreds of thousands of families have had their need for housing filled by purchase of a mobile home.
Mobile homes or static caravans are prefabricated homes built in factories, rather than on site, and then taken to the place where they will be occupied. They are usually transported by tractor-trailers over public roads to sites which are often in rural areas or high-density developments.

Factory-built homes have proved to provide quality housing. Millions live in mobile homes, and surveys indicate that the majority are quite happy with their quarters.

However, in order to determine whether a mobile home is for you, talk with persons who live in one. Ask them what they like about it, and what they do not like. Visit mobile-home parks and examine the facilities. Whether you decide that a mobile home is for you or not, at least you will learn more about an increasingly popular mode of living.

WiFi Connection

Due to the ever increasing load of work at the office, we decided to subscribe to Globe Broadband last October. The package include a landline phone and a 1Mbps connection speed. Now I am able to finish (and start) my work at home. But during typhoon Ondoy, our internet connection went down due to floods near our area. Thanks to the wireless connection that we were using prior to Globe. I was still able to connect thru a Linksys router wirelessly. The router probably is located near our house and is usually switched on during weekdays. Thanks neighbor!

Messy Room?

How can you create some order in your room? There is much you can do on your own initiative. Start with the obvious: Hang up any clothes lying around. Clothes hangers will keep shirts, blouses, and dresses neat. A shoe rack (or plastic shoe bag) will do wonders in keeping shoes in their place, improving the looks of the clothes closet. If you have DVD players, laptop, speakers, amplifiers and other electronic gadgets, a durable rackmount will do the job. What about dirty clothes? Instead of just throwing them in a corner, why not have a hamper or at least a bag just for that purpose? Then, the bed. A few minutes a day makes the difference between a messy-looking bed and a neat one.

Now for the things that are not so obvious. Choose one drawer in the room at a time and work on it, throwing away any useless items and putting the others in place. You may want to put in the drawer some small cardboard boxes or transparent plastic bags, using one for your underwear, another for socks or stockings, and so on. In a short time your room will have an entirely different look, and you will be developing a sense of pride in it.
