My maid went back to her home town on Thursday for a holiday break and there is nobody at home to do the household chores including cooking. My brother is also not at home as he went for church camp and my grandmother is staying at a home near my house for the time being until my maid comes back at the end of the year.

Even though my maid is not around to do the household chores, my father, mother, sister and I are still able to cope with it. We split the work among ourselves and eat all our meals out so that there is less cleaning and washing to do. However, we are more busy when the maid is not around as the laundry is a big headache for us.

This morning, I woke up at about eight to sweep the floor before going out to buy my breakfast. After breakfast, I had to mop to floor and it was very tiring especially when my house is big and messy. Luckily, I managed to clean the house in time for my mother to bring me out for lunch. We ate at a fast food restaurant a few minutes drive away. My mother sent me home after lunch, so that I can come home and do my project.

Tonight, my family will be having dinner out again and my mother says that she will bring us to Vivo City. If we go there, then it will be my second time there.
