I typically used bleach on our floor when I mop it, I also cleaned the microwave oven which I can’t remember anymore when was the last time I cleaned it, lol! I have been very busy and engrossed spending my time online.

House Construction Plans

The other day my mother asked me again if when we can start building our house, I answered maybe next year. We have no budget this year as I am going home, she added that one of our relative will also build a house after my cousin went home. So if ever they started their house construction our house is the only left in a bad condition around the neighborhood because most of the houses around us are already concrete made unlike us which is just semi-concrete.

Aside from house construction my mother also wish to buy a refrigerator so she can start a business that could help them to survive for their daily food. It is a good plan actually so I am now saving for it so when I went home I can buy her even a small refrigerator.
