My SuperHeroes

The air here is unbelievable! Everything was fine throughout the day, for most parts of the day, that is, until towards the evening when the smoke got really heavy. REALLY Heavy as in it is creeping under the door, past walls, over roofs, into homes, into nose, into lungs and tries to make you pass out just from the anxiety itself.

Thankfully (me being pretty smart this time round), I ran out on Sunday and grabbed two air filters and purifiers for the homes. I was thinking it was for the rooms but during the day, I put it in the living room in hope of clearing the living room would also minimize the risk of having to inhale putrid air in the rooms.

Anyway, the air purifiers are real life savers. In the evening when it was obvious that the smoky air was penetrating the home, it picked things up a notch and cleared much of the smoke that was coming in!

Who would've known that such a device would be necessary in Malaysia, huh? And we all thought air was free. Nope, not here right now, not during this season every year. I deeply wish that there is something we can do to make air free in Malaysia around this time of the year.

Frankly, I am sleepy and don't really know what I am writing about right now. HAHAHA.

At this moment, I can smell a little bit of smoke in the room and there is a Level 1 warning on the air filter in my room right now. It's doing its job.

Let me introduce you to my heroes.



XOXO,
Appreciate the fresh air that you are breathing right now, wherever you are,
Marsha

Maid Side-Kick

I was kind of a little sad when I read the news about this - there will be no live-in Indonesian maids in Malaysia anymore . There are pros and cons to having a live-in maid, as with everything else, but for us, we enjoyed more pros than cons. Back then, when my kids were little, we brought in a family of maids to help with...well, just about everything, and we were like two families merged into one. They ate what we ate, we sleep, they sleep, we shop, they shop, they joke, we laugh, we joke, they laugh...for me, the maid I hired was more like a sister and side-kick to me. For that few years, I was dependent on her to mind-read my schedule and when I need or don't need help. She picked things up quickly and we ended up having lots of moments whereby we were in sync. Today, two of them are on my Facebook and we were gleefully chatting over Facebook Messenger since they've just discovered the wonders of the Internet and Social Media. Since we were more like partners in crim...

Drunk People Cannot Make Comments on Blogs

OK, here's the thing with this image thing....you don't want people to design robots or programs or spiders or cockroaches or whatever to spam blogs and websites. I understand that. In fact, I am all for it. It's annoying to have spambots come in and post one liners like.... Can't get it up? Try this website. Top quality Viagra for low pricing. Value discount if bought inbulk. Or the most common ones would be.... Want a completely paid-for holiday with your family and coming home to a villa beside the sea before taking a spin in your luxury car. Then you have to read this! It's amazing! Within three weeks, you will get $32,000 in your account. Within a month, whether you like it or not, we'll bank in $65,498 into your bank account. Within six months, you're a f*%#@* royalty. I don't like that....and I assuming you don't like that either, right? If you have a popular blog, you get even worse stuff like hate mails, awful comments or people who ...

A Liberating Activity - Guess What Mine Is....

When asked whatā€™s my one single favorite thing to do in the world, I would usually name a whole list of things that I love to do when my work is not screaming at me. Something that takes my mind COMPLETELY off of everyday tasks and relaxes me. Take a guess what it isā€¦. If you say ā€˜ reading ā€™, yes, I love reading (especially soppy love stories with lots of sex scenes, please. Hee hee hee ā€¦.) and I also love mystery novels but itā€™s not the first on the list. If you say ā€˜ playing the piano ā€™; yes, I love playing the piano. Creating forms a huge part of my life and whenever I play the piano (as inept at it as I am), thereā€™s this tiny little girl inside of me jumping up and down with glee, clapping her hands. Itā€™s my childhood dream to be able to play the piano! And thumping on the keys gives me a sense of satisfaction when I hear the music. If you say ā€˜ writing ā€™; Youā€™ve got to be kidding me! You mean I donā€™t write enough as it is? Case closed. If you say ā€˜ playing with my kids ā€™; Yea...
