Posted by Home Cleaning Work At Home Mom in : Healthy Living , add a comment
I am going to do some me-management this week.
Spend an hour a week doing one thing I really like - whether it’s reading a book or listening to a a CD.
Get a part-time cleaner to relieve me of my chores ! I am going to get my sister-in-law to do it.
Listen to my body. If I am tired, rest. Don’t go into overdrive. I did on Monday ! I was so exhausted in the morning that I turned off my computer and headed to my bed. I slept for more than 3 hours without any interruption.
2 Simple Money Saving Tips March 25, 2008
Posted by Home Cleaning Work At Home Mom in : Healthy Living , add a commentThere are 2 simple money saving tips that I would like to share with you. Honestly speaking, I hate cooking! However, I have to cook at home now in order to cut down the expenses.
We have already reduced the number of times we eat out at a restaurant. We used to have our dinners at food stalls and restaurants every evening. A dinner at food stall usually costs us $15 on average ($15 x 30 days = $450).What about restaurant ?…$25 on average ! Can you imagine how much I can save now cooking at home ? It costs less than $10 for a dinner.
How could it be ? Well, I am a lazy bone when it comes to cooking and doing housework, therefore I resort to preparing quick and easy lunches and dinners. Fortunately, my hubby is not choosy and complaining.
I have even more time now to search for various free recipes of fried rice and salad recipes especially seafood salads…mmmm.. yummy ! I can prepare different salad every day now.
We are quite health-conscious, thus getting only healthy recipe and articles is my first choice.
Why You Must Buy Mortgage Life Insurance March 22, 2008
Posted by Home Cleaning Work At Home Mom in : Insurance , add a commentIn the event of you or your partner dying, mortgage life insurance can mean that the difference between keeping a roof over your head or ending up having your home repossessed.
A mortgage life insurance policy runs for a fixed policy term – most people take it put to run concurrent with their mortgage. Should you die before the end of the term period, the policy can help pay off outstanding balance of the mortgage on your home. This will be in the form of a cash sum.
This means that your dependants will not have the financial worry of trying to find the mortgage repayments in the event of your death. Neither will they have to worry about selling up and maybe downsizing in order to keep a roof over their heads – the last things that you would want to put them through.
If you are looking for mortgage life insurance, then do shop around and do not automatically accept the first quotation you get. Premiums as well as terms of the policy and other benefits can vary wildly from provider to provider and you could be surprised just how cheap mortgage life insurance can be, without any compromise on cover.

This is Kuan Kong - The Wealth God. According to Feng Shui, he can bring us wealth.
For me, I placed him facing the front door to safeguard our house. He looks so powerful that I think devils do not dare to sneak into our house.
I even have a small Kuan Kong in my home office to provide me support.
Ooopss…I have got to stop blogging for a while as hubby shouted from his bedroom that I may have forgotten to turn off one of the kitchen faucets tightly. He heard water dripping and he found it annoying.

Wine Glass Racks For Wine Collectors March 21, 2008
Posted by Home Cleaning Work At Home Mom in : Dining Room Decor , add a commentAny wine collection is not complete without a collection of wine glasses with which to drink the wine. Wine glass racks can store your stemware easily and elegantly. Not only will a wine glass rack save cabinet space, but it will also help keep the wine glasses dust-free.
For a small wine and wine glass collection, consider buying a wine rack and glass combination that holds around six bottles of wine and a modest wine glass collection.
Serious wine collectors should avoid hanging the rack in the kitchen because wine should be kept in cool, dark areas without strong odors. By the way, you should never store wine on a refrigerator. It spoils the wine.
Separate wine glass racks are more practical for wine collectors who have a large collection of Riedel wine glasses and want to keep them separate from the wine. Simple wood racks are available to attach underneath a kitchen cabinet. They hold around 20 glasses.
More elaborate wine glass racks can be displayed. Metal racks with grape designs are appropriate for most décors. Many have shelves above the wine glass racks. You could store accessories here like collector glasses, wine buckets, cozies, a cork collection, or bottle openers.
My Buddy Has Had Saline Breast Implants Even Though She Has A Ph.D March 20, 2008
Posted by Home Cleaning Work At Home Mom in : Health , add a commentSilicone implants were mostly banned in 1992 over fears they caused autoimmune diseases like lupus. But women and doctors like silicone implants because they look and feel more natural than saline implants.
My buddy has had saline breast implants for one year, with no problems. Silicone scares her, but saline… well, not so much.
To those of you who think that women should cultivate their minds instead of getting breast implants, you just don’t understand. My buddy has a bachelor’s degree, a master’s degree and a Ph.D. Her mind is flourishing, and finally she has breasts to match!
If you are happy with your tiny boobs, fine — that is fantastic. If you need bigger ones, buy them. It is well worth it.

Posted by Home Cleaning Work At Home Mom in : Shopping , add a commentI find that shopping online has become more and more difficult for me because of thousands of competitive products and online stores.
