The Diary Game [03/06/2025]// Busy Day at Home

Steem greetings guys from the motherland-Cameroon and welcome to my blog as I share my diary of the day with you all. It has been a hectic 3 days for me trying to settle down in my new neighbourhood. For the past 4 days, I have been busy cleaning, arranging, and buying some household utensils that were destroyed during our travels.

I got up early to mix puff puffs for breakfast for everyone at home. The previous day had been hectic, and this morning, I was still feeling exhausted, but as African mothers, we must show resilience to continue putting in our best for the betterment of the family. My puff puff mixture was done in less than 10 minutes and set aside to rise before frying.

Frying the puff puff was easy and less time-consuming. My kids loved it because mummy’s puff puff is the best mixture ever😋. It was so stressful trying to feed them because the constant use of the air conditioner had made them catch the flu. I prepared them hot custard to eat with the puff puff. I ate my puff puff with some avocado.

I regained enough energy after eating and was ready to face the challenges of the day. I had to soak all the dirty dresses with detergent and allow them for about 3 hours. Then I developed a serious headache coupled with a cold. I had to go to the nearest medicine store to buy some medications.

Taking the drugs made me feel dizzy and needed to nap for a while for my body to be stable before I could wash the dirty dresses. I was surprised that I dozed off for long and only woke up in the evening hours.

I had to still prepare dinner for the kids though was not feeling fine. I forgot about the dresses and went to the kitchen to prepare dinner. I needed to prepare something fast and easy to cook and settle for rice. My rice combo was made up of some sweet peppers, carrots, green beans, garlic, sardines, fresh tomatoes and seasoning cubes.

After eating, I heated water for us to bathe as it was seriously raining. The weather was cold and bathing in a cold shower was a “NO” for me. After taking my shower and calling it a day I went to the sheet hoping to get stronger and healthy the next day. Until my next diary session, enjoy the rest of your week.
