My younger sister is mad that I haven’t started driving again. I am almost 40 years old and yet I still don’t dare to drive again. Sigh!

This sister of mine has promised to give her budget Garmin GPS to me once I start driving. However, it’s been more than a year since I promised to start driving again. :-(

Anyway, I think she will eventually gift it to me. I know she has been thinking of buying a newer unit with more advanced features. :-)

Wow, this means the GPS unit she is going to buy should be quite expensive! You know, advanced models/features/functions always come at a price.

There has been no further complaint about water leak from the next door neighbor for almost a week. It’s my hope that the water leak problem has finally stopped and there is no need for any repair.

Since there are only 4 tenants living in the house, I think they should be fine with 2 bathrooms.

Speaking of tenants, I am supposed to pick up the boxes of personalized gifts and presents so that the tenants have more space for their stuff.

Now, I am scratching my head as to where I should store those boxes of gifts and presents collected over the years? Maybe the best solution is to just pick them up and leave them at charity homes/organizations.

Urgh, a man is standing outside my flat talking on his phone! He is talking so loud that I am beginning to feel annoyed.

What is he talking about over the phone? Of course it’s not about quick trim. :-)

It seems that he is urging someone to pay him back money. It’s been a few months since he lent his money to the person on the other side of the phone.

See? Don’t lend people money! It’s humiliating when you want to get your money back. It’s like you are the one who borrows money.

While searching for diets that work a few days ago, one of our tenants called. He informed us that the neighbor next door made a complaint to him.

What’s that? It seems that one of the toilets/bathrooms in the house is leaking and the neighbor’s wall is suffering from water seeping in through the walls. Urgh, water leak again!

We just spent more than $1,000 on 2 leaking toilets/bathrooms in June. Now the third bathroom is leaking. This means another $800 to $1,000 is needed to find the leak and change the old toilet bowl and pipes with new ones. Ouch!

My house phone rang and I prayed that it’s from the pharmacy. Unfortunately, it’s not. It’s hubby who called to inform me that he would be late for lunch.

Disappointed? Of course. I thought I am cut out for the part time job at the pharmacy. Apparently, they think otherwise. Sometimes it’s a bane to have high qualification, you know.

Come on, I just want to a part time staff! Why can’t a diploma holder work as a part time promoter selling personal and health care products?

What do you think if I give the pharmacy a call after I finish writing the prototype 37c review?

I should fight for it if I really want the job, right?

Since the beginning of my income crisis in June, I haven’t been able to sleep well at night. As a result, I have to use the eye cream more now than ever.

I hope the situation will go back to normal again soon. Otherwise, I will have to go on having sleepless nights and spending more money on eye creams to cover the increasing lines and wrinkles.

Oh, sleepless nights also bring the growth of white hair! Boohoo, I see more white hair these days! :-(
