Following Freedom

Time is flying so fast, Christmas is right around the corner and the year is about to close out.

We have already been discussing about Christmas decors and have been late in setting it up. We usually set up decorations at around October so this will be quick fix decor year for us. But I still want to make sure my son will feel Christmas-y via the decorations, as I did when I was younger.

We are planning to get a big “parol” – it represents the giant star in the Bible, it is a star shaped ornament with lights that are typically hand during Christmas. We also plan on getting other things like, Christmas tree items, santa christmas doormats, new socks for Z’s gifts and many more.

Looking forward to a fun Christmas as we honor and remember the Saviour that was born. Thank you Jesus

We often tend to disregard our tooth – until it wakes us up with extreme pounding pain. Here are some tips to help free us from teeth worries and avoid future problems with our teeth.

It may come as a surprise but having a healthy diet is number one in having good teeth. Make sure you get enough early morning sun for Vitamin D to help with proper Calcium absorption. You need to eat green vegetables for the minerals that you need and the Vitamin K2. And don’t forget your regular dose of simple animal products like egg yolks for Vitamin A.

After taking the right type and amount of food, only then do you worry about tooth cleaning. Most of us use the toothbrush and toothpaste combination, which is fine, just take care to not over do it as it could do more damage than good. Other alternative methods are dental chewsticks and flossing.

Finally don’t forget to visit your dentist regularly. Depending on the health of your teeth, dentists will give you a regular checkup and cleaning schedule which you should follow. I know that it might be costly, wish that we had a relative dentist who uses discount dental equipment who will give us either free or discounted services. But just remember that when you start having problems with your teeth, there is nothing left but regret of not having done the basic things that could have avoided the problem. Stay free and healthy!

This year, I was plagued by car aircon problems. Here are some tips from what I have learned through my experience that will hopefully help save some drivers and car owners some headache.

1. Do not set the temperature of the air con unit to maximum. In a lot of cars, I this is the case, and I have learned the hard way that with this setting, the aircon has to work harder and cause unnecessary strain specially during summer noon time driving.

2. Do not immediately turn on the aircon, wait a few minutes for the engine to get prepared for the extra load of the Aircon. This will ensure your compressor has enough energy to fire it up and avoid unnecessary damage or stress on the aircon compressor.

3. Have your car checked immediately if you feel, hear or see anything out of the ordinary about your aircon. The earlier you have it checked by professionals the more parts you could save from being affected.

4. Don’t use the aircon when the weather, temperature and traffic is clear. Lower down your windows and enjoy the cool breeze for a change while driving. Not recommended if you are driving down a busy city road.

If you encounter problems, be thankful still because your car can still run without Aircon. The worst is still having your car breakdown in the middle of nowhere, where there are no rv towing services available.
