Vintage CINDERELLA and FLOWER FAIRY Tin Toy Teapots from Sushipots
Pretty or fairy-tale like aren't they? I saw these on the ETSY front page minutes ago, & felt it's quite apt for this blog post.
Life is anything but fairy tale ^^
It's been a busy & sometimes "stress-full" 2 months for me. I've decided to send my domestic helper back to Indonesia & part ways with her as I realized it's not working out between us, no matter how I try.
Sounds like a failed "romance" huh? hehe... sort of I guess ^^
No matter how I try to compromise, "look the other way" etc, certain things simply can't be tolerated. And I realized it's better to let go, when the "heart of the other party" is no longer with us.
Coming to this decision, immediately relieves a lot of the pent-up tension I've been feeling over the months. And, all of a sudden, I felt "freedom" of being "helper-less" hehe...
Strange but true.
I needed the extra help at home, but not the mental burden. And, mental burden turned out to be much heavier in comparison to the physical nature of stuff/routines & chores.
So, I'm really tied down at home with so much more to do on top of tending to The Laughing House. However, I'm relishing this period of time, until a new domestic helper comes in May.
Hopefully, this new partnership will turn out well for both of us.
Wish me well :) or, better still ... pray for me :D
I couldn't agree more! I'm in-between helpers too and felt the emotional relief even though I'm now much busier, physically. I don't know how you manage to run house AND business! Kudos!
ReplyDeletehaha... thank you! I know I'm not alone in this sentiment! lol...
ReplyDeleteWell, both kids are away in school in the d mornings, so, I'll either focus on either TLH, or housework... not both at the same time ^^
