What do Housewives do?

Okay so I decided to write a hub for hubpages on Housewife - What do housewives do? to help answer those out there who are wondering - what do you do all day? Aren't you bored? Besides cooking.. what else do you do? Well take a read of my article and you'd get a pretty good idea of what I am doing with my life at the moment :-)

Also, I have friend who (I won't call names) is also a housewife and we are in constant communication and let me just say - she deserves some kind of HOUSEWIFE award or something! She has two boys and I think she is a super mom! Besides doing the normal cooking, cleaning and washing on a daily basis - she also has to coordinate her two boys activities and boy are these boys active! Swimming, cricket and many other activities has the housewife/mother running around all day long. I admire her! And she does it all with a smile and is rightfully proud of her kiddies. You know who you are :-)

K I'm off to bed now. It's very late. Have a good night and I hope you enjoy my article.
Leave comments.. I like to read them :-)

Bless the Broken Road - Rascal Flatts

This is a song I absolutely love. You can see the video along with other romantic songs.. if you are in a bad mood, try listening to some of these. They will help put you in a good mood. Bless the Broken Road and other romantic songs

Here are the words courtesy of artists.letssingit.


I set out on a narrow way many years ago
Hoping I would find true love along the broken road
But I got lost a time or two
Wiped my brow and kept pushing through
I couldn't see how every sign pointed straight to you

Chorus:
Every long lost dream led me to where you are
Others who broke my heart they were like northern stars
Pointing me on my way into your loving arms
This much I know is true
That God blessed the broken road
That led me straight to you

I think about the years I spent just passing through
I'd like to have the time I lost and give it back to you
But you just smile and take my hand
You've been there you understand
It's all part of a grander plan that is coming true

Chorus:
Every long lost dream led me to where you are
Others who broke my heart they were like northern stars
Pointing me on my way into your loving arms
This much I know is true
That God blessed the broken road
That led me straight to you

Now I'm just rollin' home into my lover's arms
This much I know is true
That God blessed the broken road that led me straight to you
Sing out loud.. It's good for you!! :-) 
Luv Lee

I'm bad at time management!

I got up this morning with so many plans running through my mind... so many things I have to get done today! And look at the time - its 2:15pm and I don't think I accomplished more than 2 of the many tasks that were swimming around in my head waiting to be accomplished! To tell you how late I am these days.. I am now going to post our most recent attempt at Art once more! But before I get there.. let me promise that I will be writing on Rio Carnaval with photos and videos too .. but give me some time k? It doesn't help that I have a hubby.. who - once he's at home - requires my undivided attention!! :-) So in that time - no blogging, webanswers or hubpages for me!!! Only the chance to check my email here and there and PEEK at facebook!!

Now let me share what's going on upstairs.. things I have to do! About 3 weeks ago I joined a website for free - www.sparkpeople.com that is supposed to help me lose weight etc by making available a vast amount of resources all for free! Well in my usual procrastinating way - I signed up, did not finish completing my profile, and started getting emails after emails which useful information - but did I read any? NOPE! Instead, whilst I am continuing to gain weight.. yes people.. I love food, I am simply labeling the email as Sparkpeople in gmail and then marking as read! So today.. I plan to revisit all these emails and start reading from the beginning! Don't worry.. if I come across stuff that's really great - I'll share it with you. Okay so that should take up a good few hours of my day today. Also, I have to try and write a hub soon for hubpages, and spend at least one hour on webanswers. Oh and more importantly I have two units to read and two assignments to do for my TESOL course and I need to put in some learning Portuguese time in there! So many things.. so little time.. oh and since I am a housewife after all - I have to make something for dinner and do the usual washing, cooking and cleaning in between! See .. my time management is horrible! HELP!! :-) I welcome any suggestions.. maybe you can help me plan my days!! I don't mind.....

Right, now back on track. These are photos of the paintings we did last week. I did the one with the flowers and my hubby did the one with the man fishing... He tried to show the sea, waves, rocks, sand and boardwalk but ended up rushing so it did not come out like originally planned!




As you can see - I think my turned out better  this time unlike my previous disastrous attempt :-) I think! Please take notice of the blue sunga (what we call a Speedo) that the Brazilian man is wearing whilst fishing - this is very common here in Brazil! Hope these made you smile :-)

Till my next post,
Have a wonderful day!

I'm back!

Okay so it's been a while since my last blog posting. I went to Rio for 'Carnaval' and came back on Tuesday but I am only now getting time to read my emails and attend to my 'online addictions' ... so hopefully some time today I will get to write about my Rio Carnaval experience and post some pictures too... but let me just leave you with this - Trinidad & Tobago Carnival is the BEST :-) Just my opinion.. Also notice it's spelled differently.. that's not me making a typo mistake! K so see you guys later.. Have a great Thursday!
