Business Licenses

My mother slowly turned our over size house into apartment units - and commercial units. We live on a major avenue so there are a lot of commercial traffic in front of the house. She did not do this in one construction frenzy but stretched it out for several years. Finishing some sections first and then leasing it. So some money is coming in as rental income and we did not get buried in debt while we essentially build a new house. Yes we are still living in the property while all these are happening. Somehow we managed. 

January of every year is business license renewal. Local and National taxes for businesses are paid. Shops and offices are inspected or readied for inspection by the municipal engineers and the fire department and if your business is food then your place is visited by the sanitary department.  It used to have a dead line around the 20th. The municipal government passed a resolution extending the period of licensing up to March 31st. They also waived penalties this year for late payments. 



Our DTI name expires this year. Renewal requires my mother's identification cards, tax number and a payment of 230 php.  Our DTI name is our trade name - Erlinda Apartments. It's my mother's name and the nature of the business. Nothing that grabs you. It's business. What do you expect?

Password Issues On Ubuntu Login

I found myself unable to enter my login credentials when prompted to do so in Ubuntu. I think I might have changed it then forget about it. I've been running the current session for more days than I should have. I forget. So what's the solution to my problem. How do I get in to my system now? It involved getting into the grub menu somehow. I am uncertain as to how to do that exactly in your system. So there's a couple of ways to do it (finger's crossed). When booting at system start, use the esc key or the shift key. The first one worked for me. The timing is key. Wait until the bios banner shows then hit the esc key once. I am using Ubuntu 22.04.4 here. I have a current version of grub. The grub menu will give you options and the one you want is: root. Yes you want root privileges to set the root password. It should give you a terminal access where you can issue commands. Type: #mount -rw -o -s remount / ==> this command mounts the filesyste...

2024 So Far

I have a feeling of moving earth or walking off my itchiness. The growing fat in my belly tells me I am failing on many occasions to give in to this urge. My eyes are blurred by morning glory. I remember my father having the same ritual in the morning. After his weak stroke, he couldn't speak much, just a grunt but he would demonstrate with hand how he liked to wash his face. The weather wasn't helping. It's been raining cats and dogs the past week. The province of Rizal was soaked and spilled volumes of water into the bay and Laguna lake. Our Caimito tree was cut to no more than 4 feet from the ground. It was towering above the corrugated sheet metal of our roof. Now it lay horizontal on the yard. I calculated it could be made into a whole table and chairs set by a talented carpenter artist. I showed Lino the two big pieces of trunk that could only be moved if cut by a power saw in place. The road widening project in San Mateo was in the middle stage. One side of the road ...
