      Interesting, I subconsciously thot these wood shld come in ball form.


      The the round plate-form, it’s more cost- & time-effective bcoz u take it & sand-paper yearly to refresh the strong fragrant fr the campor wood to effectively chase away insects & crawlers. Only once a year instead of throwing out the balls.

        getting someone to clean the inside of the cupboards 2moro.


        I can breathe a sigh of relief after that, because next tue onwards, I can start bringing not so heavy stuff over bit by bit before actual move.

          Yay, start moving some boxes over 🙂

          Heard from FM963 this morning that one needs to have some ME time no matter how busy she is. The ME time can be some 10-20 min before sleep.

            ME TIME today - Just spent 4 hours re-potting my plants & fertilizers for my herbs this afternoon whenkids are at Sentosa.


            So fulfilling, but backaches started.

              Starlight,
              I don't mind vacuum, mopping, ironing (2x a week), washing the fans & hanging up laundry...but I just hate cleaning of any kind.
              My ME time is every night after hanging up wet laundry.

              I've used up 40 boxes :faint: and still have so much daily essentials.
              it's hard to believe we will be shifting next week after staying here for 20 years.

                What's your definition of \"cleaning\"? I would classify \"vacuum, mopping, ... washing the fans\" as cleaning! And I dislike all that too!

                It's only when you pack and move that you realise how much stuff you have.

                  me time going to do some catch ups at coffee shop after distributing some ‘goodies’. Kinda nice to see many activities around of people getting busy to go work/kids go kindy. Feel fresher recalling my younger time.

                    You have packed 40 boxes and still have some more :yikes:
                    I am most probably the odd one as I don't think my family has that much. Of course prior to the move, we dumped a lot a lot.

                    When I work, I look forward to having ME time.
                    When I am on leave, I look forward to returning to work.

                    :stompfeet:

                      as in taking a cloth and a pail of water to clean table tops, cupboards, windows. I just hate it!
                      I like the clothes to be neatly folded. occasionally, I will pull out everything from the cupboards and fold the clothes...and take out the worn out ones. I do the same for the kids.
