Season greetings to you all and a happy weekend to all my steemit friends. I trust your day is going well and you are enjoying all the damn thing happening in this season?. Great!!. Yesterday night, I tried sharing my experiences and the activities of the day but couldn't because of how stressful my day was and how tired I became afterwards.

So, this morning since I will be going for the second service, I decided to share with you how stressed my Saturday was. At the close of work on Friday, when I returned, I started picturing how my Saturday will look like because of all the house chores that has piled up for me. So I forced myself to sleep early so I could wake up as early as possible to begin the house chores.

The broke and it was Saturday, I woke up as early as 6 Am in the morning, said a few prayers after which I took my gallon and headed to fetch water. I had not even a drop off water at home so I had to fetch as many times as possible so I could filled up all the containers at home so it could carry me through the coming week.

Where we fetch water is a bit far from where I live so I had to trek some distance before I reach there. By the time I was done fetching the water, it was already pass 9 Am. With that same energy, I brought out all the dirty clothes in the house and started doing my laundry immediately.

By the time I was done with the laundry, it was already noon, about 1:30 Pm. I was tired but couldn't stop because I still a lot to do in the house like the mopping and cleaning of house. So I summoned courage and continued with the cleaning and mopping of the house. All these, I was doing them with an empty stomach because I never had breakfast.

I was becoming very week and tired. My strength was already failing me but thank God I was able to finish up. It was exactly 28 minutes pass 2 pm that I finally finished with all the chores. I managed to had my birth, took some boiled plantain with palm oil for launch after which I just laid down on the floor to have some rest. I couldn't remember when I slept off.

Waking up and saw that I slept off on the floor with the plate I used for eating all by my side. It was evening already by this time. Let's say few minutes to 5 pm. I carried away the plate, dressed up and decided to pay my sister in-law and her family a visit since it's been long I saw them.

Mummy!!! Uncle Matthew is here here children shouted at the sight of me. Waoh what a surprise visit she said as she welcomed me in, served me with a can of malt first while she was rushing to make some food for me.

We had a long conversation that I was happy I visited. The house was becoming stuffy since there was no light, we had to come out and sat outside. She decided to use the opportunity to prepare some leaves she wanted to use on her kids for medication. She washed the leaves, pored them into a rubber, added some water and squash them thereafter, filtered out the water.

Menhh.....it was really getting late, so I couldn't wait again, so I decided to go home. They saw me off to the major road where I boarded a tricycle home. When I got to the house, I just went straight to the bed and retired for the day.

Thank once again for reading through my diary, till my next publication, stay focus.
