Fall is Here

I turn on my computer every morning upon waking up. It is the very first task I do every morning as I jump out of the bed before I go straight to the bathroom. It’s out of habit or maybe because I depend so much on my computer on almost everything like… checking the time… […]

Reruns

I hate watching TV shows lately. There is nothing I can watch recently that are not reruns of the past season. I hate reruns. But there is nothing I can do but to watch them. And so I had to deal with the ordeal of watching something that I already watched more than twice and […]

Dirty Carpet

We had our carpet cleaned this morning. We have our carpet cleaned at the end of summer or at the beginning of fall. We have our carpet cleaning ritual every year before winter comes or before the year ends. It’s a tradition that I need to continue if I want to maintain the house and […]

Just Human

I am human too. I know that I am human because I am capable of making mistakes. But sometimes, the phrase “I am just human” is a good alibi especially if you made a really honest mistake like… forgetting to press the “on” button of the washer after you already load your laundry and had […]

A Guilt-less Wife

One of the beauties of being a stay-at-home wife is that… you are in control of your own situation. I mean, I can go back to bed anytime I want to [right after Hubby left for work]. The chores can always wait until I am ready to take control. And I can savor the peace […]

The House that Good Wife Makes a Home

What makes a house… a home? And who makes the house… a home? It’s the wife’s duty to make sure that the house runs accordingly, the budget works efficiently and the husband lives conveniently (duh!). Anyway, with the high price of goods, I can’t help but explore all possible options to keep up with the […]

Multi-Tasking

My friend from Singapore is online right now. And we are chatting [as of this writing] while doing the laundry, watching my step-son and writing another write-up for my other blogs. Yes, I am multi-tasking right now. And that is the only way I can deal with my social life which honestly speaking has taken […]

HomeMaid

Being a stay-at-home wife, I spend a lot of time at home [for obvious reasons]. I was never been this domesticated in my entire life before. I had a career back home and the only chores I know how to do are – popping the food in the microwave, yanking the clothes in the washer, […]
