Housewife Woes

I am so full of grievance. Everyday I am toiling non-stop! Everybody in the house is so listless. Their life revolves round the COMPUTER only! Can you imagine that! This is such a treachery. I wondered if I had used the right term. But, it is a fact... a family that is seemed so lifeless and it is 'MONEY TALKS'.

"How much money are you earning?" Does it mean that we have no rights to say anything when we have no earning potential? "You earning a lot of money har!" Does it mean that when you earn a lot of money, then you have the right to enjoy, have the right to do anything you can? Does it mean that when people do not have any means to earn any income, and when people have no earning potential like children, then they have no rights to have their own space, their own leisure time, their freedom?

"I AM DOING OR YOU ARE DOING?" If I tell him about some facts, since I am always doing housework and I am the one doing everything at home, can't I tell them what I expect, for the ease of everybody, for the good of everybody. But all is a waste of effort. The man would not listen to anything. He even 'squandered' or 'lose' all the money.... (claim to be stock guru... and can help to increase our money....). What happened? And today, all is back to square one.... starting from ground zero...

Worst still, everything is MONEY. Money is more important than PEOPLE. In the family, it is so important to have a balanced lifestyle. It is so important to have a healthy family where everyone in the family interacts with one another and everyone helps to keep the house clean. BUT, I HAVE NO SAY! I am not the head of the household, and since I am not earning as much as him!!! I am a housewife for all you know!

I had written at my other blog, Peaceinspire.com about Housewife Epitaph. This is the plight of a housewife -- what the housewives had sacrificed for their families. If the family members ever appreciate and ever helped in the upkeep of the home, then it is already such a great comfort to me. But this is not the case.

All the cleaning job at home is done by me -- the washing of the toilet, the whole house and all the laundry. The most 'headache' place at home is always the toilet. At the toilet, we need the boys to be cooperative... otherwise it is going to stink the whole house. At home, I had made my toilet simple so that washing up is easy. But it is still very time consuming to clean the whole toilet, consider scrubbing the window panels or the sliding door panels.



The above picture is taken from betterbathrooms.com It shows some of the shower enclosures which they have at their website. Inside my bathroom, I have 3 door panels for my shower partition. When the shower enclosures are new, they looked so nice, but through time, there are algae stains and dirts accumulated.



A clean and dry bathroom is peace of mind to the family, especially when there are little toddlers at home. A wet bathroom is very hazardous to the children. A dirty toilet will harbour lots of germs and is very unhealthy to the whole family too. Maintaining a clean toilet is of such an important in the family. If I have money, I would like to change my shower door one day. At this website, there are special offer shower enclosures as shown in the above picture. To know more details, visit the website.
