Finally the weathermen are right. As expected, I woke up to a dreary, stormy day today. I don’t think the sun will peek at all. You know, there’s no use complaining as we can’t really do anything about the weather. It’s fine with me, as I really don’t have any errands to do.
I’m gonna be home all day, and since it’s Friday today, my kitchen is closed. However, I still have many little chores and one big chore to do. Household chores never really go away. This is what I miss most about being home in the Philippines. While there, you have house helps to depend on, you don’t really need to lift a finger if you don’t want to. Here, there’s help, but only if you are willing to part with big bucks to pay someone on an hourly basis. That’s why, sometimes I am tempted to just take my husband’s long standing offer, to hire a live-out help. But then, isn’t that shame on me? I’m home already, what should I be doing?






you could hire one siguro if you really need to work on heavy work loads. it’s better to pay someone rather than experience hurting muscles

yeah, it is definitely being considered kasi nga complainer ako. kaya naman siguro bulsa ng financier ko hahaha. but I dread having to train someone to do things the way I want. plus, I don’t want “aliens” roaming around in our home. grabe ‘noh? iba kasi pag katulong, live-in yun, you develop some kind of bonding over time.
Hirap talaga dito dahil walang katulong. I always tell hubby that I don’t used to cook and wash dishes in the Philippines. But I have no choice here, walang katulong kaya kelangang matuto at gawin ang di dating ginagawa.
