        This morn, I played the songs bookmarked on Youtube as my companion while ironing. Suddenly those clothes didn't seem that many after all :imcool: Cleared the cupboards...wash some new clothes for CNY and clear some tees which are quite worn.

              Thanks a lot Janet.. How much does it cost? I am thinking to get one...
              Sorry. I missed your post.
              Can't remember.
              Hubby uses it to make french toast. The other kitchen appliance is his Air-fryer...but cut down recently bcos weather is hot and we had sore throat.

                  If I change curtains tomorrow, then maybe vacuum again.

                    I have been vacuuming almost once a day for the past one week. Mop every other day. There is a construction site nearby, I think it must have some impact to the dust in my home.


                    Hopefully, with the increased frequency of mopping and vacuuming can reduce the dust at home.

                      We keep talking about cleaning the homes. So ladies, when and what are you going to do something for yourself (yes, just yourself)? Bought cny clothes/shoes? Book your facial/pedi/ medi? Hair cut/perm/ colour/ rebond?


                      I have bought 3 dresses and a jacket. Will probably skip new shoes unless I see something I like. Book pedi and mani already. My first time doing manicure… I wonder how long it would last. I opt for gelish too. First time doing gelish also. Hair cut already.
