It is always nice to have her tasty cooking and have someone clean up my apartment.  I am kinda lazy since her last visit.  I will only vaccum or dust my place when I absolutely cannot stay it any longer.  On average, I think I clean my place every 2 to 3 months.  My mom also repairs my clothes, which is a very important skill that Pat lacks.  My mom always boast how much time I save while she is here.  The reality is there is no big difference.  The time I save for not cooking my rudimentary dinner is lost to eat a proper meal at the table.  I rarely clean the house, so not much time is save over there.  The only real time saver I can think of is doing the laundary that is a task I couldn&#8217;t avoid every week.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>My mother stoped by Vancouver and visit me on her way back to Hong Kong.
