My Life as a Working Housewife

I can't believe that this is my second week already since I was launched. It is quite a challenge since it's just now that I had a regular freelance job online.

Yes! Despite the mishap mentioned on my last post, I finally passed and accepted the job. I had several trainings, some paperwork, and demos, then after, I was in. The last thing I remember is that I am in the front of the computer at nine o'clock, teaching my last student for the day. I already had some several worse cases, funny ones, and awesome classes.

So now, this is how my life goes. I love taking good care of my husband as he takes good care of me physically and for my spiritual needs. It is always thrilling to do things for him since he is such an appreciative one.

What I love the most is shopping! I think that's every girl's best friend. But I am not talking about buying stuffs I want just because. This means grocery shopping. We only eat twice a day because we are strictly following our fasting pattern. You can read how we do it here: https://dutchpinay.blogspot.com/2018/02/wedding-preparation-fastest-way-to-lose.html. So far, since we started, we are on the same weight every single day. It is a very good maintenance practice I find. Anyways, groceries are my kryptonite, aside from my husband of course. My feet always pull me to supermarkets when I'm out. That is why I call it, my Happy Place. I will just roam around, look at the seasoning section, look at the fruit section, look at the baking section, then go back to the seasoning section and that's it. There's not really that much to see in these sections but they're pretty inviting to me.

Everyday, we also try to go to service and preach more as possible. We are happy that we have each other now and do not need to be separated when going out and going home. It is such a nice feeling.

To sum up that one and a half months that GJ and I are together, it has never been better! I am always praying that everything will stay the same no matter what.

Such a Bad Day

It was Tuesday afternoon when I first received their call. It was one of the online teaching companies I applied for since G and I got married. There were only two actually. So then, after picking up the call, I was scheduled for a technical check to see if my PC and internet connection passed the requirements. I was super tired that day and I still went on with the scheduled checking. Time came and I was like five minutes late. My mistake is that I did not apologized being late but then went through the checking proper. There is my husband ever supportive of providing what I need, like the LAN cable for example. Tests did not went well at first (my processor is handling too much stuff so it is slow apparently). So I used another PC, my husband's PC. It had problem with Skype at first so we need to wait until it's good. While doing so, I kept on updating the checker about my status, simply because it got into me that I do not want her to wait for me without notifying her what's happening. And so finally, everything went good. She called me and when we were having the call, she complained that my video image was pixelated. So she told me that she's giving me 5 minutes to fix it. And so we tried our best to see what's the problem. We called others and confirmed that my image quality has improved. I then asked her to call me again. Oh, and she mentioned that she had a Skype problem. An hour passed, and I have not heard of anything. It's then past 2100h when I messaged her that I cannot wait any longer. It is really taking too much of my time just waiting. And it came to the point that I became paranoia, hearing Skype call though there's none. Right after I send my message that it's better to reschedule, she called again and even demanded me to answer her call. I did it, making sure everything from my end is running good, so we can talk better. I might had a good reception for her, but her call was laggy so I complained. She told me that she had a recent call and it was good. That statement made me think, we started at six and it was nine already. She had been gone for an hour and now that I'm telling her that she's in a bad line, she said she had a call and it was good. She did not receive any call while I was waiting, I hope. Because that would really piss me off. That is such a waste of me and my husband's time. And not just that, she sounded so bossy and hanged the phone up before I even say thanks. That time, I wanted to withdraw my application and tell them that I don't want to be a part of a company with that kind of attitude of an employee. She might be having a bad hair day, or having her very first day of her period, but treating someone like that is really not reasonable. Before hanging up, she said that I need to do something then she will call again. I thought, no, I never want to call with you again. She showed me anything but pleasant. And that even broke me out. I was super blessed having my husband to console me. He even made me tea to replace the tears that was lost. Haha.

I turned off my PC and head off to the bedroom. Took my shower and enjoyed the strawberry mango tea G prepared for me.

On the other hand, I am blaming myself for being so sensitive with people's attitude toward others. Although I definitely know why are these things happening. I also thought that I am so weak and I do not have that strong personality to fight for my right.
