Life of a Housewife.

I got a taste of it recently, Alhamdulillah.

All thanks to my school holiday.

;)

It's actually not that bad. I have the house all to myself & get to spend with it the way I want.

So my daily routines spent - watching Martha Stewart show, Bella, Wanita Hari Ini, Oprah and Chinese serial drama on 8tv. [I sometimes do feel old when doing these routines :p ]

Just to ensure I'm still 'alive', I have lunch dates sometimes and go to school to see what I can do to prepare for my work next year.

;)

Do I get to do any relaxing? Reading? Baking?

Alhamdulillah, I did but most of the time is more on cleaning, wiping, organizing, folding, scrubbing etc. My refrigerator seems like it just come out from an electrical store. So new and clean.

The house chores are sometimes challenging.

It's almost the same amount of exhaustion I gain when I work at school.

Luck for me, I enjoy doing both chores (most of the time).

Alhamdulillah, this housewife thingy really put me in adorning my house mode. My this month salary has been spent mostly at the furniture store. InsyaAllah I'm even planning to have somebody paint my house this weekend. I'm simply quite nervous about it.

My house it too white, so I pick a very light peachy-brownish-pinky color.

Hopefully it turns out well, amin.

Checklist.

(Khalifah) wives, do keep in mind (or keep anywhere you find appropriate) to have a book or anything as a reference or checklist for your (honorable) wives duty. As Muslims, insyaAllah we have to make sure we are doing everything purely to gain Allah's pleasure duniawi ukhrawi but at the same it is according to

As-Sunnah. Get books that will help you on this. Alhamdulillah, I've found mine. These two are quick check-up to ensure insyaAllah I'm on the right track - that is Islam.

Turn our daily chores into Ibadah, insyaAllah.

So it means we are preparing every second of our life doing saving for Akhirah.

InsyaAllah you can get these books at any bookstore.
