Rants of life

The weather is getting unbearable hot in Thailand. Some times, it’s as hot as 40 deg in the day, and I’ve almost got myself roasted by staying outdoor. It’s not that I love to be in the sun but I have some errands to run and I need to be out and about. I don’t [...]

I’m just back from a trip last night and oh boy, I’m still exhausted. I think I always need a holiday to recuperate from another holiday. Sort of like a linear motion kind of thing. Cause and effect LOL Since we hardly have time for holiday as hubby is always working, it was a good [...]

I’m trying to reuse the water released from our air-conditioning by collecting it in rain barrel downspout and use it to water the plants. If there is more, I will use it for cleaning up the balcony. We could have just dispose the water but why should we waste it? It’s slightly inconvenient to collect [...]

Hubby has nephew and niece who studied music abroad and now they are teaching music as a profession. Some times, the nephew will perform on private function, and it pays well! Most importantly, they collect CASH! If they are into music composition, I bet they will make even more. It’s not that hard to make [...]

Each time I drive past a motorcycle, I will try my best to avoid it, instead of going too close. It’s pretty common seeing a family of 4 or 5 riding on the same bike, especially since my office is located out of the busy Bangkok city. Some times, it dreads me to think what [...]

What gift should I ask for my anniversary? One of those princess cut engagement rings? Or a bag? Or most practical gift will be a reliable and efficient part time cleaner for me! LOL! I’m so tired of cleaning up these days, some times, I can’t even be bothered to vacuum. But with the reno [...]

A friend had just given birth to her 6th baby, so should I send a cookie bouquet present to congratulate her? Yes, 6th baby. She’s blessed with 3 beautiful girls and boys now, and I truly admire her courage of doing this child bearing process over and over again. I don’t mind doing it if [...]

I’m so hungry now that I can eat a horse! I didn’t eat a lot for breakfast today because I was rushing to get breakfast ready for everyone, pack the kids lunch boxes and also getting my gal ready for school. Where do I have time for a proper breakfast??? That’s why I might be [...]

I’m having a terrible headache today. It’s so bad, I think I’m going to puke soon. It’s all because I’ve started yoga again and it’s so tiring for me. And now, the work is stressing me to the max. Not any funny tee shirts or a piece of black chocolate can cheer me up now. [...]

Can you believe it? My condo is not ready yet but we have been staying there for almost 2 months. You just can’t imagine living with renovation, which comes on and off. For the past 2 weeks, the workers didn’t do much, and I can’t contact the interior designer. I’m getting nuts with their delays! [...]
