New family member.

I've finally arranged for a filipino (her name's Charlyn) to be our domestic helper today. After attending the stupid online Foreign Domestic Workers Employers Orientation course and submitting all the relevant paperwork, she should be joining us next week on friday.

It's sure going to take a lot of getting used to. The last time we actually had a female living in our house and being a part of our everyday lives (excluding girlfriends spending the night) was like 24 years ago when my parents were still married!

I guess we do not really have a choice. The doctors say that he will need long term care and i guess i cannot be by his side for the rest of his life. When i made the decision to quit my job to look after him (and his affairs), it was with the assumption that his recovery will be quick.

More updates about Charlyn to follow soon..
