A Homemaker’s Diary

Remember the entry I wrote about Planet Pulse? And I promised to tell if my withdrawal from PayPal to my Maybank account is successful.

I withdrew some amount last Friday and I checked today, the money is already in..(which means it only takes 3 working days to process). No additional charges whatsoever from Maybank.

If the amount you want to withdraw from PayPal is more than RM400, you will not be charged a single cent. But in my case since the amount is less than RM400, Paypal deducted RM3 and the balance after deduction and forex calculation will then be credited into the local bank account which I have registered with Paypal.

I will accumulate more USD in my PayPal since now I know for sure that there is much easy way to get money in MYR. Last time I have to use Al Rajhi Visa Debit to take out the money from PayPal.

This is my effort to write 3 things that make me happy (after reading a motivational tips on dwimaya blog last Friday)

Ok, let’s start with No.1:

My aunt and uncle was coming over on Sunday afternoon. So Hubby who woke up almost the same time as me and the little one, quickly grabbed his cup of coffee and started to clean up the house up and down. He came home the night before at 1:30am after the monthly release, bringing a pack of nasi goreng kampung for his starving wife. (That pack of rice is No.2 that makes me happy..I am always thankful for food that Hubby brings home)

No.3 : I came down to the kitchen after the little one finally fell asleep at 2:50am. Hubby offered to make me something to eat eventhough he has to wake at 8 am for work. We decided to eat the salami with the french loaf. Hubby cut and clean everything.

What would I do without you, Hubby? Who would pick up the trash and throw them out? Who will chase away the stray cats that came and pee in the laundry area? Who will wipe clean the floor when the little one accidentally peed? Who will open the ever tight bottles and jars for me?

I never realized the value of a husband until I quit my job and stay at home. Now that I have a child, I value my husband even more. For all my dosa-dosa from the last Raya till tonight, I hope you will find it in your heart to forgive me 🙂 hehe!

Attention people! Why waste opportunity to earn money while you are online..rather than waste time on Facebook and not making any money out of it, why don’t you go and check out Planet Pulse!

I just cash out another USD27 from them (actually I totally forgot about the money I have in Planet Pulse until I got another survey invitation from them today)

Usually a survey will get you 300 pulses which translate to USD3, sometimes a short survey will give you 150 pulses. But since they pay in USD and with our current exchange rate of 3.31 (as of today) that could give you an amount of about RM10 (can pay for one lunch at normal stall, rite?) And those surveys are not time consuming and not brain draining either, you can do them while doing your office work..hehe!

So click the banner below or the one on the right side of my blog to join. If you wonder how to cash out the money from your PayPal, now you can withdraw those moolah to your local bank account easily. I just withdraw some amount of USD from my Paypal to my Maybank account just to check how smooth the transaction will be.

I will write about that later. So quick, let’s get our pulses and turn them into Ringgit Malaysia..heh!

I always have many things to do every day (at least in my mind..huhu!) I tried to maximize the amount of tasks that could be completed so that by the time I go to sleep, I feel satisfied with myself.

Like today, I did the laundry – 3 round of them (which has not been done since the start of CNY hols), folded and hang the clothes as soon as I took them out from the dryer. Boy! I am so proud of myself, (bukan senang tau nak bertungkus lumus buat kerja rumah dgn ada sorang budak kenit yang menyibuk ke sana ke mari..hehe), I even ironed a shirt for Hubby to wear for his agency meeting/preview this week.

Oh, Sarah.. if you are reading this entry, I found the salami and beef breakfast in Cold Storage Ikano. Not really cheap as the price is 2.99 and 3.99 per 100gm. But I tell you, it’s worth it. Feel like having buffet breakfast in 5-star hotel. And because of that we have been having sandwich for supper 2 nights in a row, even bought Jalapenos to accompany the home made sandwich…ala ala Subway!

Well, coming back to the title above, I have been reading Universiti Terbuka PTS entries for 2 days now. Really feel like I should try my hand in submitting manuscript for them, but what do I write? Fiction? Children book? Craft related book?

Maybe a parenting book would be a good idea, What To Expect In The First Year in Bahasa Melayu..haha!

I have been trying to update this blog since my last post on the traits of high need babies. Well, I have so many things in my mind but yet so little time to really sit down and put them in words.

I would love to share about the Law Of Attraction from the Quran perspective. I already bought one book about that, hopefully it will reach Hubby’s office by next week. So far what I found online are mostly written by Indonesians in Bahasa Indonesia (which I will really have to sit, read and ponder upon to get the translation right..huhu!)

Oh, whoever know where to get halal beef bacon or pepperoni like the one they have in Subway, please tell me. We went to the nearby Jusco but they only have chicken. We ended up buying the preserved breakfast beef strips which I plan to turn into homemade sandwich for lunch next week.

Eh, I really have to sleep..though I still have many things to say here. I have a craft class tomorrow..which means I have to wake up 1-2 hour earlier than usual…aarrgghh..well, things that you have to do to earn some money and in the same time keep yourself social and not cooped up like some mundane homemakers..huhu!

Errr..next entry, I hope to write about my plan to teach my son some Art Time like the one they have on PHDC..heh! (or do you think 14 months is too young to learn such thing..what a kiasu mom, lah!)
