Cissy just got married to a wonderful man named Arnold and she will do everything for him.

Arnold loves to eat delicious meals and this encouraged Cissy take up various cooking classes. For a month, Cissy has been practicing and experimenting with various ingredients to make her cooking more delicious. Since then she has been cooking wonderful meals for Arnold. She even surprised Arnold with a lovely breakfast in bed consisting of French toast, vegetable and cheese omelette and some blueberry pancake. Dinner that night was Garlicky steak, Caesar salad and tiramisu.

Ice cream is also one of Arnold’s favourite desserts and so Cissy decided to make ice cream for him as well. She bought an ice cream maker and made wonderful vanilla and chocolate ice cream, all of which are Arnold’s favourite.

Cissy has been working so hard in pleasing Arnold and this wasn’t unnoticed by her husband. Arnold was very much touched by all Cissy has done. To thank her, Arnold has given her lots of gifts including jewels, scarves, clothes, and expensive perfumes. Arnold also gave Cissy a brand new convection oven because the old one that they had was just too outdated.
Arnold knew he married a very wonderful woman and she will do anything for Cissy.

I hate general home cleaning. Well, I think only because I’m such as lazy bum. Last year’s general home cleaning still haunts me up to now. I found several dead rats and huge spiders in the attic while rearranging some things. I almost died from fright as well as from the awful smell.

For this year’s general home cleaning, I will be concentrating more in my room. I plan to put up storage for shoes in my closet and over doors; my shoes have been dilemma lately. They have been piling up all over the place. Because of improper storage, they all looked scuffed, dirty and old. My shoes really need to be organized.

I will also replace my bed’s sheets, pillowcases, and skirts. Not to mention the curtains, throw pillows and accent rigs. I want them all to match this time. I also plan to place a few plants inside the room, just to make my room a bit livelier. The Hawaiian lamp in my bedside table needs to go to. It will look really out of place when I put in my new decors and sheets.

Now that I’ve think about it, I don’t hate general home cleaning that much. But it is a tiring, that’s for sure.

Minnie has saved herself some money to buy some new things. She has been doing errands and odd jobs around their neighbourhood. It has been a month and now, Minnie has enough money to buy her dream shoes and dress for their school dance.

After school, Minnie went immediately to the mall to check her dream shoes if it was still available. But before that, she went to the dress store to try on the one she liked. Minnie tried on a beautiful, flowing lilac colored gown that was slightly above the knee in length. It suited her skin tone really well and she looked absolutely ravishing. After Minnie bought the dress, she immediately purchased her shoes. She was so happy when she found out it was discounted.

As soon as Minnie got home, she put on the dress as well as the shoes. She stared at herself in the mirror and she was happy.

Last night, Kyle was home alone for the first time. He just turned twelve and his folks trust him enough to stay out of trouble while they were away for a business dinner.

Kyle was excited about being left alone at home. But he was nervous as well. What if something went wrong? Would he know what to do? Kyle was confident enough that he would be okay until his parents arrive.

Before his parents left, they gave him a list of telephone numbers he can contact in case of an emergency. They also left him a wonderful dinner of macaroni and cheese. Kyle’s mom told him to be in bed by ten since it wasn’t a school night tomorrow.

Kyle was in his room playing video games when he felt hungry. He remembered the macaroni and cheese his mom made for him. Kyle went to the kitchen and turned on the kitchen light. He took out the mac and cheese from the fridge and popped it into the microwave.

An hour later, Kyle was in bed. He had already brushed his teeth and changed into his pajamas. His parents would be so proud of him. He kept his nose clean and out of trouble.

People often come home from work all stressed and tired. In order to feel energized and refreshed for another’s day of honest work, it is important to relax.

Here are some of the things one can do at home to relax and unwind:
-Curling up in bed watching your favourite re-runs while drinking cold beer or wine is often effective in calming the mind and body.
-Outdoor fire places provide a sense of comfort and relaxation especially when one gazes at the stars while enjoying the warmth.
-Soaking in a warm hot bath always helps a person relax. Just don’t stay in the water too long or not just your hands will get wrinkled.
-Some people may be relieved of stress by exercising. Going jogging around the neighbourhood or on a treadmill releases pent-up energy and unwanted calories too.

People have different ways of relieving themselves of stress. It is best to know what works best for you. Some people might unwind by going out and dancing while others engage in sports such as basketball or tennis. It is bad not to release stress for it could lead to illnesses such as high blood pressure, stroke, or even heart attack.
