Wish Me Luck

@n.J @Iam_jauntyjen (5204) 25 Jan

Wow! Time flies by so fast. I did not notice that I was not here for 3 days. A few days ago, I received a message from a fellow asking if I would like to try working as a Kindergarten assistant. I told her I would not think twice...

vintage chest drawer

@n.J @Iam_jauntyjen (5204) 21 Jan

I have a thing for vintage items. I saw this gorgeous vintage drawer chest. But the price is over 200,000 Korean Won. It is made of real wood. I am thinking of buying it, however, it is a bit expensive.

Curious Kid

@n.J @Iam_jauntyjen (5204) 19 Jan

She wanted to try if she could fit in the luggage. Kids are always curious. My daughter once tried if she could cook crayons when she was six years old. I guess she wanted to repurpose them. That's why I do not allow her...

What is your Pet Peeves at Home?

@n.J @Iam_jauntyjen (5204) 19 Jan

I want only food on the table; it irks me to see non-edibles. Of course, utensils, plates, and glasses are exempted. It may sound exaggerated, but I get goosebumps when I see socks (even clean pairs), an egg tray, or a grocery...

Blessing

@n.J @Iam_jauntyjen (5204) 18 Jan

Unexpected blessing. I told my husband two days ago that we were running out of rice. Although, both of us do not regularly eat rice, we still needed to buy because our daughter loves eating ride porridge in the morning at least...

Do you have a nighttime routine? I have been suffering from insomnia for as long as I can remember. I hardly get enough sleep, and it's taking a toll on my cognitive ability. These days, I often zone out. Quite forgetful, too....

Unmindful Scrolling

@n.J @Iam_jauntyjen (5204) 26 Sep

Spending five minutes on social media is a great way to spend two hours on social media. Do you agree? I am guilty of this. I don't spend too much time on FB but I am heavy on YouTube. Once I become absorbed in YouTube I become...
