CNY is 10 days away! YIKES! time flies!
Haha, same reaction year in and year out (read here , here)
Oh well, people are often driven by deadlines. The nearer the
deadlines, the more efficient the person will be!
Last weekend, my mum and I did a lot of tidying up. My mum did the most
though.
We had our home cleaned. The 1 inch thick dust was finally removed.
We had our algae-covered cement floor, wall, fence and drain cleaned.
We bought some pineapple tarts, cashew nut cookies, kuih momo, sambal
rolls, cheese sticks from hardware store where we bought paint and
brushes.
We painted our washed-out wooden fences. It was harder than imagined.
No wonder people always say, you don't know how hard it is until you
have done it yoursef! INDEED. I will never ever underestimate anyone's
work from now on. We did regret starting it but... once we saw the
result, we were glad that we had started it.
Although i feel super duber tired after all these cleaning, but deep inside, i feel good to see how our poor old house now shines. Although it isn't professionally done and we didn't cover many areas, but at least it now looks more decent than before. And for some reason, i sort of feel that our poor old house which has given its live to provide a home for us, is now smiling happily..... hahahahaha, too much cleaning must have made my imagination a bit wild :P
Now I know i could accomplish a lot if i want to even when i don't know how to. If you never never do, you will never never learn. If you never never do, you will never never realise your strength.
When there is a will, there is a way. Indeed
Partly painted fence
Not so professionally painted;p
