My house help requested a vacation. She would not be around for 3 days. So that means I have to do all the cleaning in the house. Good thing I always teach my kids to keep all their toys in their toy box after they play and put back the books in the shelf after reading. I have to admit I am not a domestic person. Cleaning floor tiles is never easy. Good thing we have those shiny ones that can be cleaned up by just using a mop. If not it would take me the whole day scrubbing the floor. Washing dishes, piling up laundry and folding clean clothes to name a few things that I have done today. Urgh! I’m not used to this, but I survived the day.

I hate so say this and I hate to admit it, but every time I look at myself in the mirror, I am starting to see tiny wrinkles under my eyes. Oh no! Though it is not that obvious yet, but if I really take a closer look at it, it is there. I am starting to search around for the best eye cream that could take this away, or at least prolong this from coming to the open. I hate to admit it, but I am going there. I do not know if I am just too conscious with age but I know that I am still not fifty, but halfway there…I never really appreciated beauty secrets until now. Because when I was young, I was always happy with my face…I do not know if I can still be… Yes, reality really bites…

I have been working in the graveyard shift for four years already. The kind of work that I do would require me to work at midnight. Ever since then, coffee has been my best friend. I drink two to four cups when I am in the office. I know that too much of everything is not good. But if I cannot drink coffee, in just a few minutes I will be sound asleep in my desk. It is not a beautiful sight to see. So I make it a point that I have a Capresso ready with coffee every time I feel I would like to travel to dreamland. My new motto, a coffee a day, keeps the snores away…

Ever since I was a child, we would already set up our Christmas tree as early as November. It was a family tradition. Even now that I have a family of my own, I always make it a point that I have a Christmas tree in the house every Christmas. I bought an a artificial christmas trees a few years ago and decorated it. That was the first Christmas tree that I bought. And it became our Tree every Christmas. I have preserved it and has been using it for how many years already. It has become a part of our Christmas every year. Now I am about to set it up again.
