My Housewife Day

It only happens once or twice a year -- a day at home without sienna is so rare. and I've made the best out of it.

I dropped her off at school and peeked through the huge glass doors to observe the kids movement inside. sienna saw me and moved from one kid to another telling them, "that's my mommy." so i had to leave.

then I got my bagel & coffee breakfast via Tim Horton's drive-through. coming home, I started to clean and vacuum the the whole interiors of the car. what followed was a major air refreshing movement. I opened every window in the house that can be opened. when the inside and out shared the same freshness of the air, I filled the house with the lavender aromatic oil scent. I dumped the whole bedding in the machine. while the cycles were runnning, I chatted with a friend whom I haven't spoken to for a long time. best still, I showered to my heart's contend. I didn't forget to put the duvet cover in the dryer. then it was time to pick up sienna. we drove her to Bayview Village to meet Abby for a coffee.

we had a little fashion chit-chat among girls. I asked, "sienna, what colors do you like the best?" she replied, "I like pink and red." Abby and I nodded. "you don't like black, do you?" I asked. sienna answered, "I like black, I like my black dress with pink flower." Abby and I nodded again.

I know. most of them are chores. after going through a total of 11 years higher education, I still think I am best equipped for being a full-time mom. why being a housewife would make somebody desperate is beyond me. I am referring to the title of a super popular show "desperate housewife". not that I complain about my full-time working mom status. the fact is I enjoy my life, immensely and most of the time. it's not easy to make me unhappy. and that's what it is.
