I swept the 2 bedrooms and washed the toilet. Am just too lazy and will leave the mopping for other days
It is windy today, good to help dry the washed laundry
Lunch is a prob bec it is just too much to cook just for myself
For the past week or so, I have been relying on instant laksa or cup a noodles

cooking for 1 person can be so boring. how about frying 2 eggs and eat with bread?

i wash the toilet just before my bath. i mop on tue as there is tuition and it also happens to be mopping day.

it is windy today...so after i vacuumed the floor, i closed the windows in all the rooms except the i am in.

last 2 rounds I buy the whole batang fish and added a packet or 2 of minced pork plus some seasoning. make into paste and divide into 3/4 packets kept in freezer. make balls(out of shape ) and cook it with fresh tomatoes soup…can go with noodle or rice. yesterday i was abit adventurous, use the beancurd skin added ‘fruit’ turnip and shredded carrot, wrapped it like ngoh hiang and steamed it…it doesn’t taste like ngoh hiang but doesnt matter la, not for visitors mah.

I like to pre cut veg to store them in containers. I also like to season meat, soak dong fen, fu zhu etc to store them in containers.

With plenty of time at home, I don’t need to do so

I have a stupid question for gals with long hair - how do you sleep with long hair?

Thanks, ladies!!

MKS, how do you bun it loosely? You mean very high up or what?

I have had hair of varying lengths over the years, from crop to mid back. I just alternate between short and long hair. When I sleep alone I spread it up so I don't lie on it, but with DH my hair is in danger zone. :scared: I had it in a loose plait for a while, but recently cut it shorter and am doing what slmkhoo said, to one side. Wondering if there is a better way?

Starlight, long hair is surely time consuming. The fact that my hair is at its longest since the kids are born attest to the fact that they are more independent now. There was a point in time when my hair was shorter than DH's.

Long hair gets entangled easily?
It drops easier than short hair?
I can’t stand my hair stuck at the back of my neck due to sweat. So my hair is above my neck

I totally feel you! Even when I do cook for my boys, I still find it troublesome to cook for myself. When I do make an effort to cook for myself, I like eggs with fresh tomato, raw garlic and a green salad with lots of olive oil. I will have that with any starch in the fridge - leftover rice or bread. Once a month I will also make salmon soup and ba zhen tang for myself.

I had cup a noodles with a cup of milo for lunch

I think it depends on the individual's hair condition, but long hair surely needs more TLC. But short hair needs frequent cutting and hair products to maintain shape, which means you do need to go to the hairdresser more frequently, and to use a clarifying shampoo once a week.
