My New Steam Mop

noreply@blogger.com (Tey) — Tue, 29 May 2012 12:07:00 +0000

I bought this new Bissell Steam Mop at Walmart last weekend and I am so happy how it cleans and Sanitized my house. I never thought how wonderful good steam mop is until I used the steam mop of my Thursday cleaning customer. It really makes the house and floor soooooo freaking clean.

The good thing about this Steam Mop is that, it can be lift off and use it on other part of the house like the kitchen counter for sanitizing and disinfecting. I will just finish all the disinfecting solution that I am using. I will start using natural cleaning solution instead, and use the steamer as disinfectant to kill all the bacteria particularly on the kitchen and bathroom.

Busy Life But Happy With Money

noreply@blogger.com (Tey) — Sun, 27 May 2012 02:02:00 +0000

Wow, My life is so busy but I am happy with all the cash going straight into my pocket. So to update my cleaning business, I dropped the two sisters that I clean in Brampton and her sister's big house in Downtown Mississauga. But I have a new Italian customer whom I just started cleaning last Thursday. She is actaully the bestfriend of my Wednesday cleaning, who is now on vacation. I was a bit sad to hear from her bestfriend's husband that her old cleaning lady came back and might ask me not to clean for her anymore.

She refered me though with her bestfriend but I will only clean her bestfriend's house every other Thursday. The good thing is, her bestfriend refer me a friend which I will clean every other Thursday that I wont clean her house. I haven't seen the house but the lady said their houses are very much the same. All blessing keeps pouring upon me. God is so Good!!

So I started cleaning for the first this new Friday cleaning customer from Caledon. I know I can do better but I was in a hurry because I have to work overtime for my full-time job that night. I know it is a disappointment for her but I promise to work better next Friday and hopefully to impress her. Her house is messy though!!

Cleaning Worries

noreply@blogger.com (Tey) — Sun, 20 May 2012 08:25:00 +0000

I signed up for an ads update for cleaning within Mississuaga or Peel Region area, to make sure that I am updated on all cleaning ads in this area. I need one more cleaning job once a week, preferably on the weekend. A small house is perfect and I hope to get something near my house so I don't have to waste to much time and gas in travelling.

For some reason, I am a bit worry that my favorite Wednesday cleaning customer might not call me anymore when they come back from their vacation. I hope and pray that they will continue to hire me for cleaning services for their family.

I am also a bit worry that my new Friday cleaning customer might not call me back to start cleaning her house this coming Friday. I hope and pray that she will call me back and our working relationship will grow for a long time. I need this extra income for my kid's University.

New Good Rate Customer

noreply@blogger.com (Tey) — Mon, 14 May 2012 03:15:00 +0000

I finally went to the house of this new prospective new cleaning customer. The house is quite far but I dont think traffic is going to be an issue, and the house is not so big. The price rate is good and I will be doing it without them around me unlike this two customers that is quite demanding and annoying. I will text the Friday customer on Tuesday to let her know that I won't be coming to her house anymore. Her place is too far and the traffic takes so much of my time.

If she like my service, I might ask for some referals from her so I can have one more cleaning on the weekend since I will drop my Saturday cheap customer as well.

I will be cleaning her house on Fridays which is quite hard because of the over-time requirements from my night shift full-time job, but that's okey. I think I can do her house for 6 hours later on, so I won't have much issue on my resting time.

Disappointing Attitude

noreply@blogger.com (Tey) — Sat, 12 May 2012 06:00:00 +0000

The first cleaning customer is the most annoying customer that I ever had. I am quite thankful that she refered me to her sister but both their places are quite too far and their price is just not enough to accomodate the labor. They both have this kind of attitude that they need me to stay longer even if the work is done.

The thing is, I am trying to shorten my time in working on their house to accomodate my rate but they seems not happy about it. I have been thinking of stopping my service to them soon but the attitude that was given to me is good enough reason for me to stop it now. Their far place and the price for the work load that they require is not worth it.

I am still working with them because of the learning experience I got from them after not cleaning houses for ten years, and my first time to do it on my own. It's a learning experience that's why I accepted their low price just to start this cleaning business. But now that I got back the experience, I really think I need a better price for my skill. Their attitude just gave me a good reason to stop my service to them this early.

I have a new client to visit on Sunday. I look at the Google Map and her place is quite far. But she agree to pay me with my highest rate and she seems nice. I will try to clean her house sometime this coming week, and might clean her house either Friday of Saturday.

Thoughts for Cleaning Full-time

noreply@blogger.com (Tey) — Fri, 11 May 2012 06:50:00 +0000

I have been talking to a new cleaning customer and I hope this is going to be a good one. Ahhhhh, I really want to quite my full-time job and do this cleaning part-time job for full-time. It is really worth my time since all the money are mine. I don't have to deal with freaky people. My time is mine and I can do my work my way. Beside my husband have benefits at work so why not do this on a full-time basis.

I will clean the big house tomorrow as usual and meet someone after, to get free body wash and hair conditioner. Then I might go to my friend who is a massage therapist. I might ask her for more cleaning customer like the one that she gave me when I leave my full-time job. I need big house to clean if I will clean for full-time.

More UnWorthy Demands

noreply@blogger.com (Tey) — Sat, 05 May 2012 04:21:00 +0000

Today I cleaned the Big House. Demands are adding up. I am counting for about maybe 6 months and I am thinking of stopping my service to them and ask other referal to my friend who gave me the newest Big House. I want this kind of customer as they give a good rate and there is not much work to do. These two sisters are so cheap for the price that they are giving. Not worth my time. Aside from that, their place is quite far from me.

I just don't know how to say it to them since she is nice to me. But once I get the chance, I will drop them both. Maybe when I get one new nice customer like the other one, I will stop my service to them. I don't think they can get a cleaning price lower or even the same rate that they are giving to me.

Hope To Have More Like This

noreply@blogger.com (Tey) — Thu, 03 May 2012 02:13:00 +0000

I was paid for 6 hours with such a great price, to clean the house but I only did it for less than 5 minutes. It's great since it was my first time doing the house. Which mean that I can do it for about 4 hours next time since I already know where and what to do. I might need to bring pillow and comforter next time so I can take a nap in the basement while waiting for the time. I don't want to go out since it will show on the alarm how long did I clean the house.

I really hope to have more house like this to clean. If ever I found another house like this one, I will drop the big house I am cleaning on Fridays together with the small house I am cleaning on Saturdays since that are cheap customer and so much details to clean their house. Unlike this new one, there is not much things to do.

Anyway, I am not going to work today because my lower back pain. But it is not that because of the massage I had yesterday. But I still need to see my doctor if this pain wont go away until tomorrow.

I will take advantage of the days that I am not working. I need to call nettalk or try to find out how to get the caller ID so I can cut my Bell Landline Home service. Then I need to get my rainbow vacuum cleaner so I can use it on my basement and I don't have to bring down the other vacuum everytime. I will also clean my house thoroughly tomorrow as usual on Thursday and get a lot of sleep in preparation of my cleaning on Friday.

Wednesday is a tiring day for me since I have to clean the new house cleaning customer. So I am thinking of cleaning my house on Tuesdays so I will have more energy. This way, I only have to do my workout and go to bed early on Thursdays and have enough sleep for my Friday house cleaning.

Messy Family Place No More

noreply@blogger.com (Tey) — Tue, 01 May 2012 12:40:00 +0000

This is our small family room in our kitchen area. I call it our Messy Room since this is where my kids throw their things when they get home from school. This is also where they eat snacks and leave their cups and plates after.

I organized it to make the floor cleaning easier special under the furnitures. I also made it look nice by putting some of my old home decor to accent this part of my house. It now looks organized and easier to tidy up.

Organized Basement

noreply@blogger.com (Tey) — Sun, 29 Apr 2012 12:33:00 +0000

I did few changes on my basement to make it look more organized and easier to clean under when vacuuming. I feel happy looking at my house noew after organizing some of the part. I feel more relax and less stress.

I will keep my house neat and tidy as it is. I want to make sure that my house is clean and organized like the house that I clean.

Awesome Cleaning Customer

noreply@blogger.com (Tey) — Tue, 24 Apr 2012 02:12:00 +0000

I went to the house that I will clean during Wednesday, that was refered by my massage therapist. I am so happy how easy the detailed work that I will do on this house and the price they are giving is awesome. How I wish to have more cleaning customers like this one. I want to drop my saturday cleaning customer as it it realy not worth my time. I am just thinking about her sister who own the big house because she have been very nice to me and I don't mind doing the hard work. It is very important to me that I am being treated right and with full trust.

I will start cleaning this new awesome cleaning customer next week and I can't wait to give them my very good cleaning service. Aside from the easy detailed work, they are very nice and trusted me in full by giving me the of their house. I will definitely do my best to keep them as my regular weekly cleaning customer.

Not Staying Long

noreply@blogger.com (Tey) — Sun, 22 Apr 2012 05:04:00 +0000

I am a bit pissed and thinking of not staying for long with my very first cleaning customer. She is just such a pissed fussy person. She is so nuts and so clean freak. Now I know why she couldn't find someone to stay cleaning her house. If I stay in her house for more than 5 hours next time, I will find someone to replace my time with her on Saturdays. Not worth my time!!

If I will leave her, I will probably lose her sister's big house too so I might as well prepare by looking for someone to replace this two new customers. Otherwise, I will lose my extra income.

Fussiness Makes It Long

noreply@blogger.com (Tey) — Sun, 15 Apr 2012 09:20:00 +0000

My first cleaning customer is so fussy and I am glad that I didn't lose my patient. I spend so much time cleaning her house not because her house was dirty but because of her fussiness. I know that she is happy about my work, it's just that my way of doing it is not how she do it. I don't think she can find someone as good as I did because I am so confident on my skills in cleaning. My traning in Merry Maids is priceless. So if she will fussy we around again next week, I might not come back anymore.

I know I can do it in less that 4 hours without any shortcut if she will just stop fussing me around. I don't see any point why I have to spend more hours in her house while I know the trick on how to do it fast.

On Tuesday, I will start cleaning half the big house and just come back for the other half on Thursday. If she fussy my around, I will not come back anymore because her house is too big for me for the her prize. Beside, even if she don't fuss me around, if I feel that the price is not worth my enerygy, I will not come back anymore still.

Disappointed With The Prize

noreply@blogger.com (Tey) — Wed, 11 Apr 2012 13:18:00 +0000

I was a bit disappointed with the prize that was given to me by the customer who have a big house to clean. If was able to impressed the most picky leader of Moly Maids on the first day of my cleaning with them, how much more for the people who don't really know what and how is really detailed cleaning is.

To clean her house for 8 hours with the prize that she gave me is not going to worth my time. Although, she is very nice but I will see what can I do about that. I will still meet her on Friday and see how big and dirty her house ao I can have an idea how much time do I really have to spend cleaning her house. I also would still clean her house with the prize that she gave me so she will see how I clean.

I have another inquiry with the cleaning advertisement that I made. I really hope that I will still get more customer with reasonable prize per cleaning. I don't really need a lot of customer that will pay me cheap. My time is valuable and not to mention my cleaning skills.

Ready For Part-time Cleaning Business

noreply@blogger.com (Tey) — Sun, 08 Apr 2012 17:58:00 +0000

There is another cleaning customer who responded on my email. The price is quite low compare to the first person that I talked to but it is okey to start with. However, I still need to see the house to see if the price is reasonable. Whichever maybe, it is per hour rate so it's okey.

I really need to start this part-time cleaning business. It maybe hard on my schedule since I do many personal things in the morning when I get home from work like my workout routine schedule. But I have already made a schedule for that to accomodate my part time cleaning business. I am all set and ready to face this challenge. I have so many plans. Who knows, this can lead me to a better plan for life.

Ready To Be More Mind Focus

noreply@blogger.com (Tey) — Sat, 07 Apr 2012 11:35:00 +0000

Today, I will do some folding of clean clothes while I will load few loads of dirty clothes. Put the clean clothes neatly where it should belong then start cleaning and preparing the area for the workshop. I hope I still have a time to go to the bank and withdraw some money so I can start recording, organizing all the money I save and earn each week.

I need to keep my mind focus on a lot of things to keep my life go where it should go. I know it's hard and I may have to loosen up sometime, but I want to make sure that during the days that I am loosing my focus, that it wont be hard to go back on my feel because everything is organized and clear.

Excited To Start Part Time Cleaning

noreply@blogger.com (Tey) — Fri, 06 Apr 2012 06:55:00 +0000

This is the image that I used for my advertisement for a cleaning lady in Mississauga and Brampton area. There is one response I got the otehr day but it sound bogus so I didn't bother to call the phone number that was left on my email.

Theres a lot of houses/people who are looking for a cleaning lady in Mississauga and Brampton area. I had an interview last Wednesday and I really like the family and the house is not really dirty. The husband and wife told me that they will refer me to their friends and family if they like my cleaning which I am very confident because of the extensive training and cleaning that I had with Merry Maids about 9 years ago. If I made Molly Maids so impressed with my cleaning, when I applied to them, how much more with these people who don't really know what real cleaning is.

They told me that the previous cleaning lady that they had move to Niagara Falls and sicne then, they had a hard time looking for a cleaning lady whom they will really like. They also told me that they refer their cleaning to their friends and relative and reach to the point that she have to denied some offer. Ohhh I am so excited and I am really hoping to be accepted by this family. I can't wait to start my new part time business. I can't wait to start counting my money every week.

I need to start cleaning at least one house next week to start with. So if I don't hear from them before the end of next week, I will start looking for another house sometime Wednesday. And today, I will make a thorough cleaning of my house just to give a rough estimate how much I have to spend in a house.

Love My Hair Rebond

noreply@blogger.com (Tey) — Fri, 30 Mar 2012 03:33:00 +0000

Just taken today before we went out for dinner as my Birthday Treat for my family. I really happy with my hair now as it doesn't look so flat anymore as it was during the first 2 weeks Hair rebond. I will make sure to go back to the Philippines sometime next year to make sure that my hair stays as lovely as it is.

I wanted to post this picture on my FB but gzzzz, I know for sure some or maybe a lot of people will be annoyed by this.

Annoying Gestured

noreply@blogger.com (Tey) — Mon, 26 Mar 2012 00:52:00 +0000

I have to go to work again and I hope that I will not encounter or feel any annoying gestured from anyone. I just hate it when I feel someone is trying to scrutinize everything in me so that they compare themselves. I just hate this feelings.

What is wrong with trying to make myself look good. I guess all women does it. The problem is, some women don't do it right, or some are over doing it that makes them look stupid.

I just don't know why some women just can't be satisfied with what they have without looking at someone else. This is my way of making myself happy. I pamper myself because it makes me happy. Those who are annoyed by it have their own problem and that won't stop me from doing what I have been doing. I will make sure to go home again soon in the Philippines to have another Hair Rebond.

Love My New Bangs

noreply@blogger.com (Tey) — Sat, 24 Mar 2012 20:58:00 +0000

I cut my bangs today because my hair keeps getting inside my eyes. I think I did a good job on this one. Love my hair now. It doesn't look so flat anymore. I think I will have another hair rebond on my next visit to the Philippines next year. It takes some effort to maintain it but it's okey. I can deal with it.

I am not trying to intimidate anyone, so whoever is affected by the way I take care of myself is not my problem anymore. I simply love pampering myself.

I don't really have any plan to have any hair strightening treatment in the Philippines as I've said before. But I was persuaded by my friends since she own a beauty salon so I went for it. I don't like the way my hair look after the first two weeks of hair rebond treatment. But lately, I can see my hair looking so perfectly shiny and soft and started liking it. So I will definitely have another hair rebond treatment.

Like Indecent Proposal

noreply@blogger.com (Tey) — Wed, 21 Mar 2012 13:23:00 +0000

I am so flattered to be offered with indecent proposal. Well it's not as much as the proposal from the movie "Indecent Proposal" but to be offered by something like that is quite amusing. I never see myself as that valuable specially that I am already on my 40's.

It may sound as a joke or not real but it was already offered more than twice. I have no guts to find out whether it is a serious proposal or not because I don't want to put myself into a position that I might regret. It was quite tempting and I guess, I should just be happy that I still have the sex appeal. hehehhehe

My Hair Rebond

noreply@blogger.com (Tey) — Sun, 18 Mar 2012 08:59:00 +0000

This is my new hairstyle now. My hair always look flat and a little wet. They call this hair treatment in the Philippines as "Hair Rebond". I spend about 7 hours at the beauty salon of my friend for this hair rebond. They said that a newly colored hair cannot have a hair rebond but they did it to me still since my hair is thick and can handle the medicine. The more shocking part is, they have to do another hair coloring during the treatment. My hair still looks okey!!!

I use hair conditioning wax instead of the regular hair conditioner whenever I wash my hair to control any hair damage that may occur.

Works Like Magic

noreply@blogger.com (Tey) — Sat, 17 Mar 2012 11:04:00 +0000

I am so happy with the way my skin looks after my 3 weeks vacation in the Philippines. The skin care products that I bought from the Philipiness simply works like magic to my oily type skin. My skin looks more toned and even which makes me look younger and rejuvinated. I feel so stupid not to bring enough stock. But thats okey, the price of this skin care products are very cheap so I will send money to someone from the Philippines to send some to me.

I simply add the products I bought from the Philipines to all the skin care products that I am using regularly and it simply works for me. I am planning to sell it on my webstore to help people who are suffering from the same skin problems that I am having. The money that I will make by selling this products on my webstore is nothing, but it is the feeling that I am able to help someone byt sharing my experience is just priceless.

Things Happen

noreply@blogger.com (Tey) — Thu, 09 Feb 2012 13:30:00 +0000

I am starting to feel excited on my vacation in the Philippines next week. I am excited to be with my mother and eat all the filipino foods that I missed to eat for almost 5 years now. But then, thinking about those people who are waiting to take advantage of what they so called currency exchange, it just makes me feel exhausted. I am not going to the Philippines to have a real good time. It is mainly for my mother and for my daughter who is coming with me.

After my vacation in the Philippines, I will start working on something that will change our life for good or for the bad. Whichever it is, I know it's God's will. I always belive that things happen for a reason. We just have to take it and accept it and move on.

New Picture Of Me

noreply@blogger.com (Tey) — Sat, 04 Feb 2012 15:18:00 +0000

New picture of me again that I am planning to post on my FB account. I hope I wont make anyone irritated in changing my profile pictures often. I know I look vain on pictures but I love taking pictures of me every now and then. hehehhehe

I was told by someone that I look better in person. I feel good to hear that since most of my friends keep saying I look better in picture. Oh well, at least I look good hahhahaha!!!
