        Hello Imami,


        πŸ˜‰ Yes.. v challenging indeed.. my 3 yr old = dd2, no enrichment.. so she basically follows me ard..
        7yr old = ds,
        saturday morning:
        0730 has soccer trg
        130pm maths
        sunday:
        12pm chinese,

        5yr old=dd1
        Saturday:
        11am Maths
        Sunday:
        245pm Chinese

        By right they have swimming lessons on saturday mornings.. but i stop for now as i m still trying to wrk it out on the timings.. very taxing.. w the fact all by public trpt.. plus if raining worst.. n dh is on shift work timings..

        Have trouble finding under 1 roof sch or even nearby each other or same timings..
        aiyoh……. My gosh! A typical work day in office seems less taxing on our energy! U doing the shuttering yourself? All the timing don’t jive, one at 1.30pm, the other at 11am… the first half day of Saturday and Sunday are like sliced into pieces…

            Anyway.. anyone using the wireless vaccuum cleaner?

            http://www.bosch-home.com.sg/products/vacuum-cleaners/handstick-vacuum-cleaners.html

            Mintymin,

            Go for the electrolux handheld vacuum Ergorapido, I am currently using the 2nd generation which I bought a month ago at $199. Previously I was using the 1 generation which lasted me for 4 yrs (2008) and it cost me only $189.
