Know Your Way Out

exit

One of the things we take note of whenever we go to public places are exit signs. These things are being discussed too with the children. Paranoid much?

I don’t think so.

This is important to note since one’s safety is at risk if one doesn’t know where these important doors are, in case of emergencies.

We sit close to where we can run away when we watch movies and that goes the same in a restaurant.

Do you take note of the exit signs too?

Daiso Store

After watching a movie the other night, hubby and I decided to enter a Japan bargain store and browse the items they are selling. Everything was being sold at a uniform price.

There were so many things being sold there, from bathroom thingamajigs, to school supplies, beauty tools, safety products, kitchen stuff, to knick-knacks.

We got several items. A small lock for eldest daughter’s locker, a bucket, a round thing that will make eggs look perfectly round, and other stuff.

Well, you gotta give credit to the store they sure know how to sell. We paid a lot more than have we brought out the calculators and added the amount of what we were getting.

No regrets, we are happy with the loot.

Cleaning the Kitchen

Cleanliness in the kitchen. This is a very important thing to remember.

Why not? Food is being prepared here, food not only to feed hungry tummies but food that will also nourish.

One of the most important places to observe cleanliness is the kitchen sink where most of the food being prepared, as well as the dishes and silverware that go with the food are washed and cleaned.

I use vinegar and/or baking soda in cleaning our sink and the tiles surrounding it. These two are more environment friendly and less harsh than chemicals.

What about you?

Office Paycheck

  1. Memo ::  uh-oh!
  2. Copy ::  paste
  3. Office ::  supplies
  4. Stapler ::  lost again
  5. Paycheck ::  woohoo!
  6. Watercooler ::  cold
  7. Desk ::  cluttered
  8. Human ::  Resources
  9. Resort ::  to the beach!
  10. Boss ::  impress him/her

These words reminded me of that very short time I sent working as an Admin/Human resource assistant. Paperwork was boring. The tedious task of knowing the computer codes to use was a bit too much for me since the ones we used then were the old chunky machines, so unlike the netbooks that people use these days.

If perhaps I have a chance to go to this line of work again, I’m not sure I will enjoy doing paperwork more than the challenges I deal with at my present work.
