My maid is going back to Indonesia for 2 weeks, and I know I will be really busy for days to come. My kids are attached to me and hubby, but she’s great at helping out with the chores and watching them for me when I’m out. Since she’s away, I think I will be busy being a silai at home and I don’t think I can knit or blog much until she’s back. Anyway, there’s not much to blog about lah. LOL!

Some of my friends said that some maids won’t come back once they go back, so I’m mentally prepared for it. We did hold back some of her salary because she asked us to do so. For the past 2 years, every penny she made was being sent back to her family and she’s the bread winner for all of her sisters, brother-in-laws, nephew and parents. See? So cham huh? I think she has got to some sense and didn’t ask us to send back her money for the 3rd year. She has to save up for herself too, and better stop feeding everyone in the kampung!

So, I’m going to occupy myself with the laundry, dirty bed liner, cleaning and sweeping some part of the big house and getting myself used to the life without a maid. Who knows? We might have some problem getting her work permit in Bangkok and she might not be able to come along. Frankly, she really hopes to come with us but I can’t do much besides asking for the agent’s help. But then again, she has to come back from her holiday first before we will do anything about the permit.
