It's been 5 days since we have gone maidless. I am proud to say we are coping well. Of course there are inconveniences and we have more work to do, but at least we have our privacy back and I am back to training the kids to help out more at home. No one is missing the maid, not even the kids, who had not asked for her more than twice since she left.

Hubby is finally home after a 6 days business trip. The boys missed him terribly (and the presents too LOL) and we are all glad he's finally home. Told hubby that he can't be lazy now since we are now maidless and he should chip in some effort to at least pick up after himself. Hope he'll be able to do so.

Finally made some leeway on our reno plans. Will be meeting the ID tomorrow morning for a 2nd view on the 3D drawings that we got him to do. Will also hope to finalise our tile patterns tomorrow, and then we'll be heading to start sourcing/purchasing items for our home. This will be just in time as GSS will be starting on 23rd May and we might be able to get more value for money as we will be getting a lot of big ticket items. I've gotta start packing our stuff and throwing away or giving away those unwanted stuff. I wouldn't want to lug all our things over and overstock the new house with old unwanted stuff. Will be a good time to do spring cleaning too.
