USE CURTAINS ALL OVER YOUR HOUSE.

To make the inside of your home feel complete, use drapes to frame your windows. Curtains also serve to insulate windows, lowering energy expenditures. Handyman can assist you if your property is in need of this low-cost, high-impact upgrade.

GET YOUR GUTTERS CLEAN

Keep twigs, leaves, and debris out of your waterspout so they don't clog it and cause water damage to your property. This project would be ideal to start at the beginning of the fall season. Because this may be a risky job, especially if your home has a second storey, leave it to the pros to avoid the risk and bother.

INSPECT YOUR THERMOSTAT AND HEATING SYSTEM

Is your home's heating system ready for the approaching months of cold weather? Check that your heating system and thermostat are in good operating order. If you suspect your thermostat is causing your energy bills to rise, consider changing it. There are several alternatives available to fit a variety of budgets that will help you make your house more energy efficient.

CHECK THE INSULATION AROUND THE DOORS AND WINDOWS

Examine the quality of insulation in areas of your home where heat might escape. Patch or replace the insulation using an insulation kit if it is in bad condition or you can feel cool air via a crack. It's easy to overlook a location in this procedure if you're not careful. Consider hiring a professional to ensure that the task is completed correctly.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
