ok, so now hubb is KB-ing on the vast increased in water and gas usage. 

according to him, we are WAY OVER the national average....

woohoooo.. 

huat ahh...

well, how not to be way over when we are using the washing machine every.single.day. 

yeah, everyday we are using the washing machine to wash the childrens' uniforms. and not to mention the times we had to use it to wash the adults' clothes. 

though we use the 'quick 30' mode (ie, complete wash in 30mins) to wash the uniforms, i seriously dont know how much water that involves per usage. 

and then, we are cooking at least 1 meal every day (that explains the gas). after every meal, have to wash the darn many pots and pans and bowls and plates and utensils and and and and and.....

and after every meal, also gotta mop the floor right.... use water again..... 

and.... now, we gotta shower the 2 boys also.... 2 more beings to use water! 

wooooooo... 

so now, come to think about it, i think we really did 'leech' on MIL in the past. the money we gave her, think barely sufficient to cover so many things. LOL...

and the groceries..... woot! expenses again! 

the only good thing is probably the fact that we r using the aircon much less frequently than before. so hopefully, on that note, we can save on the electricity. afterall, washing machine cant be using more elect than aircon right...... 

but aircon usage was mainly during weekends in the past, but now, washing machine is everyday...

sighhhh 

really expenses after expenses..... 

okok, must think of ways to cut the utilities usage liao!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
