Domestic Diva Wannabe

Oh, I haven’t touched this blog for 6 days..  Where was I for the past 6 days? Well, I’ve just been around here at the house but was quite busy with kids and household stuff.

Our friends are coming over to our house and staying for a few days. So, we had to prepare the guestroom which had previously been our store room. It’s actually an advantage that guests will be staying in our house. If not for the guests, I’m sure this guestroom will remain to be a storeroom for ages.

You see, after we moved in a month ago, we actually just concentrated in setting up the dining room, living room and kitchen. We didn’t think much about all our extra clothes, books, old stuff and what nots that are inside the guestroom. That room has been very messy for quite sometime that even I, myself get a headache whenever I go there. It’s like, I want to start organizing it but don’t know where to start . As a result, I haven’t done anything with it for weeks.

So, it was just a few days ago, that my hubby and I set some time to sort out all the stuff inside that room.

Now, we’ve settled about 90% of it. I mean, we threw everything inside the plastic boxes and think about their contents later. Now, our problem will be, where to put all these boxes?  We don’t have an extra room for storage.

Anyways, it’s already quite late so, we’ll have to think about that tomorrow. Good night!

I feel very accomplished today. I’ve cleaned our fridge, cleaned the kitchen sink and hand washed some clothes. Thanks to my Hubby who’s home and helped in watching the kids.

You see, I can’t accomplish all these tasks at a very short time when I’m alone. My kids are very curious and energetic. So, when they see me do something like cleaning up and etc. They would either stop what they’re doing and try to ‘help’ me or they do their own stunts in the living room with the knowledge that I’m busy with something. And with this scenario, my house cleaning chores  usually turns into a disaster with my temper flaring. out of the window.  Whew!

Anyways, I’m thankful for today. I hope Hubby will be home more during the daytime so I can accomplish more things.

During the past days, I’ve been constantly ‘complaining’ over my seemingly unending household chores. I guess I need help in organizing my time and my house though this site called FlyLady.net.

I’ve actually signed up for a free account in this site a few years ago, but I was a bit overwhelmed by the amount of emails that they send everyday. We didn’t have a good internet access in our house at that time yet, so I don’t get a chance to check my mails often. So, you can imagine the shock when I open my mails and get flooded by Fly Lady.

But I guess now, I’m quite ready to subscribe again. They really have a lot of tips and tricks to keep your household on it’s tip top shape. But, I have to wait for awhile before I subscribe in their site. We have some visitors coming this week, so my schedule will be a bit busy and I don’t won’t to be so overwhelmed with so much information at this time. Maybe when my schedule becomes normal again. Hmmm.. let’s say in 2 weeks time?
