Day two and I simply collapsed on bed half way through laundry!
Actually it's not that tough I think but it's just the need for amazing amount of energy to give Jamie the attention whenever she needs and doing housework in systematic order so that we don't waste every bit of time. So as to have time left before bedtime to rest , not physically but mentally.
I concluded two things so far:
1) housewives = no easier life than working mummies! Coz the amount of mental energy we need to take care of children is ALOT as the children expect u to give them ur FULL attention even if u are multitasking... Eg running to her in between chores. I really salute my mum who gave up her youth and social life for my bro and I n be a long term housewife tho she is naturally a very sociable and outgoing person. And she not only mend the house but manage sidelines too coz back then my dad didn't earn very much due to
his education. Her sidelines include baby sitting up to two other children n sewing clothes etc... Really amazing amount of energy!
2) infants are a lot more easier to take care than toddlers! Partly coz infants aren't able to communicate their needs or even bargain with u so much! Jie will keep calling 'mummy, where are you..' until I appear! But of coz she isn't like that when my helper is at home. I should think Jamie is insecure now coz she is left with mummy when she used to have mummy and aunty. I guess she will slowly adapt to it... I hope it will be soon.
Anyhow I had been trying to think if there are shortcuts to my housework. Hahaha...wish me luck!

Supermum reporting! Day one!
Took leave since yesterday to run errands with Pyone and to send her off today. It was a blessing I had such good helper and happy that she wants to renew her contract for another two
Years! However I realised having a good helper = we become really spoilt! We suddenly become impaired or unable to do many things or unsure of what is the correct ways of doing certain chores etc!
Now that she is off for two months home visit, I suddenly feel a bit loss, but at the same time I thought its a good opportunity for me to refresh my understanding n knowledge of doing certain things eg, cooking n cleaning the house and routine care for Jamie :)
Yesterday was my day one on duty!! To make it less horrifying for myself and less horrifying for jamie, I brought her to my brother's place for my niece to play with her!
Since I got home after dinner at 9plus I had been going chores! From
Washing baby clothes to hand washing my clothes, throwing rubbish to changing rubbish bins lining, feeding Jamie w apple and milk to packing Jamie's bag etc etc...
It's really tiring but it's a good 'work out'!!! N I feel good being able to do so many things -> full time job + part time mother + part time housewife!
Hope I can juggle these duties just better and better !!! Good luck to myself!
