Cleaning Ladies
We used to have cleaning ladies come to our house once a week to clean up the ones I can’t cope up cleaning like the windows, ceiling fans, kitchen drawers, and ironing of clothes. But they became very naughty. They would lock our bathroom door to clean it. I was wondering why everytime they came out of the bathroom, they would have that cheeky smiles on their faces. Then I discovered they were using my cosmetics. My Clinique! And then one discovery led to another. They would add water to the cleaning stuff so it would appear that they’re not wasting it. And then when I wasn’t around, they would let the tap water open. So we decided we no longer wanted them. Now we don’t have cleaning ladies anymore … Read entire article »

His Dilemma
It has always been his dilemma. His hair is thinning. I always assure him it’s okay. But he doesn’t believe me. I remember one time he asked me, Jan, what about if I go bald? I just shrugged. No deal. He’s still my husband and I would still love him, no matter what. LOL. It’s funny how men can get insecure when their hair starts to thin out.

It's Saturday!
It’s Saturday today. That means one thing. No school for kids, no work for hubby. My boy has his drama school though. But it’s only for an hour.

We didn’t have a pool in our apartment so I am grateful that we got a club membership that was passed to my hubby from a friend. I wonder if we have a pool though. I’m sure it would be extravagant to maintain one, not to mention buying some pool supplies. So I’ll just settle with the idea of going to the club for swimming. No more wishing for our own pool. Anyways, today we’re not going to the club. Sigh. But we’re going to do our grocery … Read entire article »
4 More Months
4 more months and we need to move out from this house. It seems like we were more excited to move in this house than moving out. We haven’t started looking for a house yet. Worse come to worse, (which of course will be very convenient financially – and why am I saying worse?) we will move back to our apartment. But the good news is, the house next to our house just put up a sign: house for rent/sale. Aint God great? However, we have a bit of hesitation. The house is very basic. When I say basic, it is downright basic. Nothing. Not even an air conditioning unit. So even if it is still affordable, we are doubting whether we really wanna take it. The one good thing about that … Read entire article »
