Fiona, I am glad that you are sharing the same feel with me so I would not feel so awful for complaining as a homemaker. Is really true that you must get down then do it so you can understand how difficult or how much effort you need to put in to get the result, sometimes might not be the result you want. Btw, I will remember what you said 'the happiest people do not necessary have the best things' ! :) I feel blessed as I have a sweet friend like you.

Hey Qiaoting, I know what you mean. When I'm not working the last few months, after sometime I feel abit like "cut off" from the world also... esp when going out with friends they start talking about themselves and work then when it comes my turn it will be "So you haven found a job yet ah? Wah tai-tai hor... enjoying life."
I can't say that being a housemaker don't have any job satisfaction. It is just that what you have done at home does not get any "recognition" by others who are not housemakers because they do not know that being a housemaker is not easy as well. Simply not a job that everyone can get down and dirty with.
Anyway, just want to say I think we should always try to feel blessed with what we have cos the happiest people do not necessarily have the best things. :)
Gambateh!!

Haiz... in fact was not lying like tt, gt covered up and put at not so obvious spot in the car. Got window shades also. Anyway, was because of the car boot was full so din think much, just put in the car.... >< Yup, will learn from this pain lesson. Also shared this piece of info for all friends that don't repeat the same mistake like us. =)
