When I went home last December, I saw what my mom worked on with her allowance – a tiled floor. Hehe. Well, we were used to having a red floor before but she complained that it was too dark for her. She also said that while my siblings had glass tiles for their homes, she had a lonely red floor color that’s difficult for aged eyes.

I still remember the time when, as kids, we were taught of keeping our house clean. One task for me was to keep the floor clean and tidy, free of feet marks and dust. I had a lot of good memories doing it – going around aboard a rug and dragged by my older brothers. It was all about having fun while keeping your place neat and tidy.
