The Diary Game: A Day Of Gratitude Despite All Odds (25-06-2025)

The life we live in is so beautiful irrespective of how hard it could be sometimes, so if I am to still choose where to be I will choose life over again, I am going to tell you some activities I involved myself in during the day.

On Wednesday my boss told us to resume very early on Thursday so I did not even wait for my son and husband to wake up, I woke up and wrote list for my husband to go to the market and buy things and also dropped the money for him because he sent it for me to withdraw Wednesday night. I bath and did small breakfast for my son before I left the house.

Just on my way to work

Today's work was hectic and couple with how my boss was angry with other staffs who came late, he was venting the anger on everyone including me and that affected my mood today at work, I was struggling to smile with customers today and I did not want my boss to notice it so that he won't flare up the more.

When my morning shift collapsed, I went to my son's school to pick him up so that we can go back home together, but when I arrived there his school did not dismiss so I waited for them to ring the dismissal bell. I waited at my friend's shop opposite the school and when they finally did I took my son and went back home.

Waiting for my son's school to dismiss so that we can go home togther

From there we went to the house together, I was thinking of what I would give to my son so that he will eat and wait for me to cook abak soup, I bough akara and bread so I cut the bread into half and gave him half and also ate half with the akara before I began to cook.

Bread and Akara we ate in the afternoon

Before I started cooking, I bath my son and made him to rest in the afternoon because I did not want him to play himself out and later disturb me at night while I would be trying to catch some sleep. When he finally slept off, I went to my kitchen and washed the kpomo and other chewables and steamed it.

About to steam the chewables

After I steamed the kpomo and other chewables, I cooked the palm-fruit and washed it and began cooking the soup proper, it did not take me long and I was done cooking and since hubby was not back from work, I dished the soup small and ate.

My abak soup was ready and I ate it.

There is this laziness that comes after eating so much, I felt so but hubby will not like it if he comes back from work and see dirty dishes so I took them back to the kitchen and washed them before I called my son to wake up so that he will see what to sleep in the night.

In the evening time, I washed my son's school wear and ironed the one I washed on Wednesday. We stayed together in our room and was expecting the daddy of the house to come back from work, I was playing riddles with him till he slept off.

When hubby finally came back from work, we bath and I ate with him also. After eating I called my steemit mentor on video call and he showed me some things I was finding hard to understand then I used what he taught me And wrote my second diary before I went to sleep.
