Omi V1 Handlheld Vacuum Cleaner Review

 I recently purchased an Omi V1 handheld vacuum cleaner online through www.lazada.com.ph for Php 1,369, and the item took only about 3 days delivery via local courier than the expected 7 day-delivery. The specifications include :

Product number:V1
Maker: Omi - China
Voltage: 230V 50Hz
Power: 800W
Nozzles : Round Brush, Upholstery Nozzle, Crevice Nozzle, Floor Brush Nozzle, and 2 Plastic Tubes for Extension

Upon delivery, I immediately tried the item to suck out accumulating dust on my sofa. To my surprise, the device is powerful. And I can't imagine the dust that has been on the sofa for quite sometime now (yuck!).
Although the device is that powerful and handy, it heats up so fast. I'd have to let it rest for at least five minutes to cool down (I think that goes on for most handheld vacuum cleaners). But over all, I am satisfied with the product.

A Working Mom's Dilemma

A Working Mom's Dilemma

Jean Metzinger, 1911, Le Gouter (en.wikipedia.org)

Most mothers having children have had this dilemma on whether to continue their 8-hour regular job or choose to be a stay-at-home freelancer or businesswoman. The later to some, is not an option, since, they already have a stable job with good pay.  Thus, sacrificing their time for the kids. However, some mothers, guilty of not spending enough time for their children, have been considering other options.
Recent population survey shows that 64% are better off having their parent/s stay at home, and 20% are better off without. While the remaining 16% are indecisive.(https://today.yougov.com/news/2015/05/04/poll-results-stay-home-parents/)
Most mothers if they were only free financially would opt not to work outside their home. While others though financially free, would still like to go on that career driven regular 8-hour shift. Reasons vary depending upon mothers. Besides, they will have to decide for themselves and of course with the help of their spouse/partner. But one major deciding factor would still go to the child/children.
