HVAC System


The first thing that you are going to need to do is check your HVAC system. Make sure that you are checking both the heating and air conditioning side of things. While you won’t need the AC in the cold months, it’s easier to get an air conditioning repair appointment when people aren’t really using theirs, than when everyone is having issues. As such, check your HVAC system, and ensure that everything is in working order. This way, you don’t have to worry that you’re going to freeze, but you’re also covered for next summer as well!


Safety


Another thing that you have got to think about is safety. Have you been through your home, checked your roof, ensured that all doors and windows are secure, and so on? If you haven’t, you need to do this as soon as possible. Safety is paramount for your home, and we don’t want to see you compromise on this. If for even the smallest moment you think that something isn’t safe, you need to do something about it. An example would be if you think there is a leak in the roof. This can be a disaster, especially during the winter so don’t let it be a problem, get it sorted.


Candles And Blankets


Finally, the winter months are coming which means you’re going to want blankets and candles in your home for that cozy feeling. You can curl up on the couch after a long, hard day and watch something or read a good book. There is nothing quite like being cuddled up on the couch on a cold day, with candles lit around you and just relaxing. There is too much stress in life as it is, so when the colder months come, it’s the perfect time to be able to create the perfect living room for relaxing. If you can think of any more comforts for cold weather such as slippers, make sure to add them to your living room too!


We hope that you have found this article helpful, and now see some of the things that you need to do in order for your home to be ready for the approaching colder months. Time is getting on, and soon it will be early sunsets and dark nights. When this time comes around, you need to make sure that your home is ready, so we hope that this advice has helped.

Knot Genie Review and Giveaway

If you have a little girl and have not heard of the Knot Genie then you need to watch the following video:   "The Knot Genie™ and Teeny Genie™ Detangling Brushes were created for every mom that has endured the foot stomping and screaming matches that come with brushing their child's hair. With the Knot Genie, even the curliest, most knotted up hair practically slips through the unique bristle configuration – gently and painlessly. Try the Knot Genie on your kids (or on yourself) – you'll be amazed by the ease of brushing, as well as how it virtually stops breakage and split ends. You've wished for hair brushing standoffs to end. Wish granted." My Review:  Thanks to the Knot Genie for sending me the product to conduct my review.  I was not paid for this review and all opinions expressed are 100% mine.  I know I have grown so tired of my daughter coming to tears every morning when we did her hair. I was becoming to think she was the most

Dry Idea: Deodorant Review and Giveaway

I know most of you know I was at kids camp last week and I think I mentioned the humidity and heat that we had that week!  I was daring as I only brought my new Dry Idea  deodorant  that I had never used prior.  I had no idea if it was going to keep me from smelling like B.O or if I was going to have sweaty pits. So how did the Dry Idea hold up to the hot and humid days at kids camp???  Arms raised high during worship in the morning and in the evening!  :)  I was dry and I did not stink!  :) WOOT WOOT!  I had the unscented brand and I usually do prefer a pretty scent but it worked and they do have scents which include powder fresh and cotton dry that I might try in the future.  :) The Dry Idea Roll-On is 24 hour protection, fast drying MicroCotton Formula, hypo allergenic, and contains Vitamin E.  :) Don't like roll on's??  They do offer Clear Gel and an Invisible Solid.  :) Dry Idea provided a free sample of their Advanced Dry roll-On so I could review them.  However,
