The Diary Game [01/02/2025] // Weekend Activities.

Steem greetings @everyone and welcome to my blog as I share my lifestyle content with you all. It was Saturday and I had a lot to do for the weekend. Guys before I continue, permit me to shout out to all the amazing single parents in the world. You guys are doing amazingly well. Gosh, I have tasted it for days now as my husband travelled out of town and it is not easy at all.

I do not sleep well because I have to catch up with all the house chores, taking care of the kids, my work, etc. What can baby girl do, I cannot kill myself 😄hehehehe.
I had to take it easy on myself. I prepared breakfast for my kids and placed them in a flask because I knew they would wake up late and I had an appointment to catch up with in town with my hairstylist.

I had given my wigs to my hairstylist in town to revamp and treat them and she called me within the week that she was done with the wigs. I have low-cut now and I do not even feel like putting in wigs but I have to treat them well and keep them in case of any function that requires me to style my hair. I took a cab to town and arrived at the saloon when the hairstylist was not yet around but her sales girl was available. I had made all payments online and was only coming to collect my wigs. I called her on the phone and she spoke with the sales girl who then gave me the wigs.

I passed by the market to buy some vegetables to prepare my soups and store for the week. I had to buy bitter leaf, huckleberry, fresh tomatoes, onion, carrot/green beans, etc. I bought all the things and had to return home fast to meet up with the kids.

While at home, I napped for about an hour but could not nap properly as the kids were watching cartoons and the noise was crazy. I got up and started preparing the vegetables to be cooked the previous day. I washed the bitter leaf and stored it in the fridge to be cooked the previous day.

I bought already fixed Huckleberry and I washed it properly and boiled it. I will cook it the next day as a meal of the day with fufu. My kids love it so much and it's been a while since I prepared it.

I proceeded to slice my tomatoes to prepare tomato sauce for rice. I do not like using tomato paste and we had blackouts in which I could not blend the tomatoes. I had to stress using a knife to slice. I prepared the sauce and saved it in the freezer.

When I was done with the cooking, I heated water and bath the kids and equally took a warm bath. Then I soaked all dirty dresses with detergent and washed them the next day. I can't wait to own my own house and buy a washing machine.

It was dinner time, I joined the kids and we ate together. While they were washing cartoons in their room, I decided to watch the Laliga game between Espagnol and Real Madrid. It was an interesting game and I was expecting Real to win but it ended 1:0 in favour of Espagnol.

I concluded my day by writing a post about achieving 55k steem power on the platform. After the post, I had to catch up on some sleep as I needed to wake up early enough to wash the dirty clothes before my kids woke up from bed. Until my next diary session, I wish you all a blessed weekend and a once more special shout-out to all the amazing single parents out there.
