A nutritionist’s voyage through life

Kitchen Problems

February 8th, 2009 Filed under: Stuff by admin

As a nutritionist and a mother, preparing the right food with the proper nutrition for my son, Justin is quite a task. Along with the preparation is washing of the dishes afterwards. Doing this the quickest time possible would greatly ease the pressure of getting household chores done for the day. Things really go awry when I encounter mechanical, electrical problems with the dishwasher. Since my husband, Mark is at work the rest of the day. Relying on him to do the task is far from possible so I resort to surfing the net and educate myself on quickest way to fix it. Or sometimes I observe my husband when he does ever get the chance to fix the dishwasher and take a mental note of it so in case I encounter such problems, fixing it could then be as easy as baking a pie.

Of course if I can not really handle the problem calling a technician would be my last resort. Aside from the dishwasher there is the plumbing whenever the sink gets clogged. Or the light doesn’t work or the kitchen door or drawer could be stuck. Learning to do things myself has greatly increased my capability as a mother and a wife. However, it gets overwhelming at times since I do have my job too, and to come home with trouble in the kitchen is a tall thing to do. But who else can do all that in your own home but you since you are the only who is there, waiting for your husband till he gets home let all of you end up to nothing.

The Things I Need

November 8th, 2008 Filed under: Stuff by admin

In this modern world of technology, gadgets are already part of daily routines and also life’s activity. And for me as a working mother, there two are gadgets I could not do without. These are my iMac and my iPod. Yes, as a nutritionist, I do most of my planning, researching in my iMac. It is like my personal assistant. It keeps my work handy most of the time especially when I do my planning and organizing technical stuff. Sometimes, I also bring my work at home especially when inevitable things happen like I have to prepare for a certain meetings and I needed more time in my presentation. Bringing work at home at times like this is considerable for Mark and Justin. It is like my career is already packed in this device, everything that has got to do with my work has been inside it already.

My iPod is another thing I couldn’t sleep without. Aside from being a music lover, with so many things going on in my head from the pressures at work plus juggling it with my responsibility and commitment in my family, sleeping can be hard at times. So my iPod serves me best when I am about to get ready in bed. It is like my lullaby. One time at night when the battery got busted, I could hardly sleep, so I turned on the stereo all night long so I could put myself to sleep while Mark had trouble sleeping on the other hand. We are just simply opposite with our sleeping habits.
