Woke up this morning to the lovely barking of my dog, Tanya, that probably woke up half the neighbourhood, if not all. Isn't it nice to get a wake-up call? Well, had my morning cup o' coffee as usual and to my horror I realised that I had to do housework today! Well, my mom's contractual maid has gone back home to the Phillipines for the Christmas holidays this month, leaving the household to pick up after ourselves, which shamefully, has not done since eons ago. I mopped the floor after catching up on some news and my daily fill of comics (Zits and Garfield were particularly funny today) with my back screaming in pain after the 15 minutes torture session. I have to admit that housework is a gruelling task which most of us take for granted since a majority of us have maids to wash, clean, mop, iron the clothes and serve us our meals everyday. Fortunately for us, my grandmother was happy to oblige us with lending us her second maid to do the housework for us from Tuesdays to Fridays. That left quite a big relief on me because I couldn't bear to do this more than once a day or a week even. I sound like such a whiner.
covers her face and drags feet away in embarrassment . . .
