A Homemaker’s Diary

I am the Cinderella in the house for today, not the one in ball gown and horse carriage, but rather the one with the mop, broom and toilet disinfectant..huhu!

First I clear off the sink from last night dirty plates and frying pans. My all time favorite would be Sunlight Lime (the dark green one) for the dish washer. No, I don’t have the auto dish washer, I wash them manually using my two bare hands..heh! I tried the one with cucumber (Hubby said it’s good for hands) but those dish washing liquid failed to clear up all the oily mess.

Luckily my share of dirty laundry is not piling up so I decided to save my Dynamo and Softlan Ultra for another day of washing task. A reminder to myself, need to buy Dynamo on the next trip to Jusco.

The biggest achievement for me today would be the mopping of my kitchen floor and the stairs..I really hate mopping (at last, I have been planning to mop them for like 3 months..huhu!) I think I only mop like 2-4 times a year..haha! I use Ajax Fabuloso and I love the smell. Due to my lack of maintenance to the kitchen floor, I have to sweep it twice and mop twice..huhu! Perhaps I will be more diligent to mop the kitchen floor once a week from now onwards…(you bet!)

After dinner I decided to brush the toilet and the bathroom floor in our master bedroom. Thanks to Kiwi Kleen and the fact that Hubby has cleaned the bathroom about 1 month ago, it was a breeze. No hard to remove stain unlike my kitchen floor.

So Cinderella task is complete for the week and she will be on leave from Friday to Sunday..heh!

*This post is written for NetAudioAds Pay-Per-Play*

For those who have blogs, this is the chance for you to earn money from those visitors who come to read your blog or website. Check out this Net Audio Ads link as you can earn more money without getting additional visitors to your website. Plus you don’t need them to click anything to get the money.

This NetAudioAds Pay-Per-Play (PPP) advertising works on a bid management system similar to Google AdWords and will compensate publishers just like Google AdSense but with one critical difference – the website (blog) owners will earn revenue on 100% of their traffic.

What you do is simply paste a small piece of Javascript code to every page of your website that you want your visitors to hear a brief 5 second audio advertisement.

The best part is each visitor will hear only 1 ad and each time an ad is played, you are paid. It’s like your blog is now a billboard with audio advertisement that caters to specific interests, demographics and geographic locations.

Those advertisers (some are big one like Harley Davidson or Taco Bell) will use your blog or website to place their 5 second audio ad and in return you will get paid. They used to advertise on TV and other commercial platforms but now with the Internet revolution, the market is bigger and better (and I guess must be way cheaper) and yet very effective.

What an easy way to earn easy money from your blog, huh! Better than some pyramid scheme or credit card fraud. As long as it’s legal money, nobody could sue you for trying, right! After all it’s your blog, when you can earn some why not go for it.

We went to buy groceries at Jusco last Sunday and I noticed all the minyak kelapa sawit (palm oil) like Vesawit, Seri Murni all gone from the cooking oil shelves. Luckily I have bought a 5kg minyak Seri Murni 2 weeks ago and hopefully it could last until they restock the cooking oil. I think I use those cooking oil a lot, like 10kg for 3 months because I never recycle the used oil. Once I fry, I will throw away the oil.

Worse come to worst, I might have to buy the corn oil as the substitute since I dislike peanut oil. Even that is not available, most people took at least 2 bottles of the 5kg Minyak Cap Buruh (Cap Helang, Cap Pisau) in their shopping trolleys. Must be their stock especially when the Chinese New Year is looming near in 4 weeks. Since I only use either Vesawit and Seri Murni, I just have to pray the stock will come in soon. Otherwise I have to change my cooking regime to baking, roasting, steaming and boiling..heh!

Despite the limited supply of cooking oil at home, I still cook nasi ayam today. The chicken is only good when you deep fry them..hehe!

Monday is usually a busy day for me. Those clients who are only online at work will usually respond to email on Monday and some of them prefer to call or sms about order and craft classes. While for house chores, I usually will do my laundry on Monday the most since there will be a pile of clothes from Friday night (Hubby’s work clothes and 5 pairs of socks) together with Saturday and Sunday casual clothing. The rest of the week, I usually will do my laundry on Wednesday and Friday.

Monday is also the day that I get back to clients who request sample. Like this bunga dip lili, I only managed to complete the sample after I get all the materials during weekend (it was raining really heavily in Jalan TAR last Saturday..huhu) Luckily for her, I get all the materials I need, even the dip color match what I’m looking for perfectly.

Whereas for another client of mine, the type of ribbons that are always available suddenly out of stock for the color that I need. Yes, I do get that kind of problem especially when the clients are the fussy type. Those who are really sporting usually can get what they need really easily, with very minimal hassle. Must be the law of the attraction, those who are always negative tend to create negative energy and in the end what is supposed to be a smooth journey prove to be a hard one even for those around them.

I hope the person who orders this bunga dip will be OK with this sample so that I could proceed with her order which is due in the middle of February. While for the other client, she’s willing to wait until the new stock of ribbons arrive (and hopefully it will..huhu!)
