Warning: Entry memuji husband :)
Which one is worse?
Career wife: a woman who goes to work during the day and housewifing (word created by yaya) at night or;
Housewife: a woman who stays at home all day doing house chores?
Ma used to tell me, "do not quit your job". Joe wants me to keep my job too. Once we have kid (or many kids), it may be a different story but we'll think about it when the time comes.
It has been 3 weeks since Ma and Pa went for their Haji. I missed them terribly. And ever since that, I've been the Madame at Ma's house. Joe has been nothing but a very sweet husband. He helped me so very much. And being a career wife is not that tiring if the husband helps around doing house chores.
2 weeks ago, he cleaned the wet kitchen. Yesterday, he cleaned the area where we hang our clothes to dry. We sent a car full of plastic and papers for recycle sampai kereta Joe bau busuk. Next week, cleaning up the porch. Every weekend, he will rake the dry leaves and sweep the porch without me telling him to do so.
At home, we have our very own trash system. Anything biodegradable, we put in a small pail and bury it. We separate can, glass, plastic, paper and batteries. Joe will bury the biodegradable trash everyday.
He irons his own clothes (sometimes he does mine). He makes our bed every morning when I'm in the kitchen preparing our breakfast. He washes his own plates, helps me fold the clothes. He knows how I hate cleaning the fish, he will do it for me.
He's not a good cook but he's great at cleaning and organizing things. He does better than I am and I dont have to worry that I have to redo it when I asked him to do anything.
He massaged my feet when I said I'm tired, took really good care of me when I'm ill and hugged me tightly to sleep at night.
I'm so grateful that his obsession is only on Badminton and a little bit on cars (just a teeny weeny). Therefore, because he's such a charming husband, I give him time on his own to spend playing badminton a few times a week as rewards for him being such a great husband. I never thought this type of men really exists because I always have in mind that men is a lazy bunch and once they get married, they dump everything on the wife.
Some give remarks that this only happens in the early stage of marriage. The man will change bit by bit. Therefore I pray a lot that whatever he's good now, he'll remain the same for the rest of his life and at the same time, I'll be a good wife to him.
Dear husband, I love you so much!

somebody passed me the puking bag!
