One of the neat thing about living here is that for 2500 PhPesos a month ($53 +/-), we have a 6 day a week stay-in (if you say live-in, that implies a "relationship!!!") housekeeper/yaya. A Yaya is one the one that take care of the kids. In this case, our kids are Cadbury and Hershey. She walks Cadbury 3-4 time a day, PRN, starting around 5AM. Hershey goes later and has to be carried part of the way, still.
Life is good. Life is Verrrrryyyy good!
I never minded doing housework but now I found I wouldn’t mind a housekeeper. What I’d really like is someone to sort all this gosh darn mail and pay my bills. Some of the mail looks official, so you feel you must open it and then it has your name here and there in the letter, etc. so I feel I have to shred the stupid snail mail spam for privacy reasons (I may be being too picky about that but I’ve read enough about Identity theft and I worked in legal at a major corporation).
