I found this Poster Print on Pinterest. How apt, I thought. I will be turning a year older pretty soon!! Hey, glad to be still around! Didn't think I would still be around back then. Thank God!

Maid in Singapore
After many many years of being without a helper at home, we are finally caving in, and have now joined the many many families in Singapore with live-in help. Yes, we are now awaiting the arrival of our newly hired helper who will be living under the same roof as us with effect from the month of May.
It is with much anxiety and anticipation that we are looking forward to the helper's arrival. The last time we had a helper was way back in 2003, when i was going thru'chemotheraphy, and i figured I needed help with the chores and watching my then 2 year old. Alas, it was more heartache than help i had during the short duration of 2 months she was with us. And so, the helper packed up and went home, and I had managed to live without a helper since then.
I guess the situation is a little different now. I do have to admit that I am not as energetic as I was 9 years back. I am unable to do any chores for a prolonged period of time. I would scrubed one bathroom, and it would seem like i had just ran a marathon. Ironing tires me up, so I am just limiting to ironing Nic's uniform and a couple of Mike's work shirts. I could still live in crumpled tees. Not to mention changing the bedsheets. I just found up from this article in Yahoo that the sheets have to be changed on a weekly basis. Yikes!! Not saying how long I have been lounging on mine.
And so we are praying fervantly that she will be a help to us, that she will be able to accommodate us as much as we can accommodate her.
Till my next post. Peace
