December Weather

I woke up to a cloudy morning today. Few minutes after, rain poured. I wondered then if there was an approaching typhoon. So, I checked online for a weather update, and here's what I got (see the image on the right side of this post):

I just love this cool weather.. especially on a weekend.. when I get to stay and enjoy home.  The soft gentle breeze blowing thru my window just hit me that Christmas season is now here to stay for at least a month.

I guess I should now start my Christmas countdown. Merry Christmas!!!  :)

My 2nd Pasay Day Celebration

Yesterday, December 2, 2011, would have been my 4th time to celebrate Pasay Day (a.k.a non-working holiday) had it not for my special audit engagements in 2008 and 2010, which period of field work also covered Pasay Day. :(

Hence, I was so happy when I found out that I would be able to enjoy December 2 away from work. In fact, days before that, I already listed in my mind the things that I would do on that much-awaited day. I should say, 80% of what I've planned were successfully accomplished. :)

So, when is the next non-working holiday? I wish PNoy would declare December 23 as such.. :(

My Lowest.. Ever..

I was supposed to make an updated post (please click this for my September post) about my electric bill which I received in October.  But due to sudden turn of events, obviously, I was not able to do so.. :(

Anyway, the table above showed that my bill dropped to P264.15 in October.  And because I was away from home for two weeks (which, by the way, was the reason why I wasn't able to attend my cousin's wedding), my bill further plummeted to P205.20.

Actually, I was expecting my November due to be much lower than that.  Considering that I did not use the electricity for half month, based on my October due, my bill should have been somewhere near P150 or about 50% of P264.15.  :(

Well, a variance of P50, I can say, is negligible.  I would not waste my time fussing over such menial matter but rather, I should still be grateful for that blessing.

I have another plan.  To find out if the Extreme Power Saver I bought is really working, starting this January, I won't be using it anymore.  If my power consumption would suddenly surge up, then you and I already know why. ;)
