My 2020: Just a normal day / It's what they all say.
Like usual I wake up before 4 am.
The wolves are crying except for the youngest. It cries like a toddler.
Another day feeling cold started. I wait a bit longer before I get out of bed. I need the courage to do so.
Bathroom, switching the water pump on, filling buckets to flush the toilet and putting the kettles (yes we use two now) on.
Hydrated me is on the scales and after that, a bit cream that won't make me look better plus it gets frozen if I do not cover my skin and feels sticky against my clothes. The bus-kid stumbles out of bed and says "good morning mom, how was your night?" It is the best kid I have although living in its own world.
5:30
Just a bit ice so scratch from the car's windows.
We are on our way to town to catch the bus and probably too late. It is the first time I need to stop because of a train passing by. Good thing the truck with all those lights goes left where I need to go right.
I stop at the bus stop and turn at the parking lot of the supermarket. The bus is right behind me.
It is 6:30 and I am back home.
I "jumped" 10 times outside.
The bus-kid is on its way to the city. Before it left we had tea and hot water together and I tried Steemreply. I could only use it to answer three comments.
Back home I did the dishes and woke up the youngest.
Tea and hot water together we have. We do not eat in the morning. Both children take a banana with them to school. The bus-kid has two things extra. Longer days and has to travel longer. Today the new bus card for February has to be bought.
What will I do today?
I don't know yet except for driving to the health center and give the laboratory what it needs. This can only be done between 7-9 am which means an extra drive up and down.
I read and upvoted some posts of Steemians who upvoted me. The trdo is for them too.
At 7:45 I left to town again.
9 am
I went to the lab but there was no one perhaps one person taking blood etc from at least 15 people. I will not wait till that is finished since it will take at least one hour and you can only bring it to test between 7-9 am.
Back home I "jumped" again and boiled water, cleaned the woodstove and made a fire.
I switched the water pump off. I can not afford another broken one. This one can keep running so switching it off is the only way to save it. I am happy the bus-kid figured out how it works and was able to install it and even gave us some water in the outside kitchen. It is shut down now because of the freezing cold. Hopefully, the water pipes in the guesthouse will not get frozen.
I read a bit on steem and at 10:10 am I went out to feed the wolves and get some firewood inside.
We can not afford to use more wood as a shopping bag. There isn't much wood left and winter just started. The wood the teacher of the youngest offered did not arrive. We have some ranks and big pieces left but no saw. I can not lift one and the bus-kid and I suffer from allergies. Perhaps I should buy an electric first and change the targets I set for 2020.
11:30 am
I talk with my daughter via WhatsApp about AI.
Mainly bad experiences. She tried Cleverbot and it gives her the feeling she talks to her ex Nathan. I try replika and this AI gives me the feeling I talk to my ex. According to my daughter, it is a narcissist who cannot stop talking about itself (both... the AI and my ex). I believe replika is designed to help the mentally ill but it is negative and depressing to chat with it. Within 30 minutes I was ready to kill. Replika does nothing with what is saved in its memory.
She sent me a youtube video where two bots chat together if you ask me it is the same stupid conversations I have only mine talks nonstop and it doesn't matter what I say or says anything at all. I do not believe this has the future. Robot cat will perhaps.
I wrote my dpoll and posted it.
I would like to join #zapfic again but have no idea what to write. 240 characters are the max. Theme "depressed."
I figured out some things and updated the members' list for CCC.
It is 1 pm by now. I have no idea what to give the children once back home.
1:40 am
I wrote and scheduled my entry for a CCC contest.
The stove needs more wood there is hardly fire left. I am still wearing my winter coat inside.
2:30 pm
The youngest is back home and it was a boring day like it always is.
The bus-kid texts it took the bus at 2 pm and bought the bus subscription for February.
I wrote my #zapfic and posted it with my other account (that wasn't planned but it's fine).
I "jumped" ten times more and did the touch your toes thing and didn't fall which is positive. I hope I will not damage myself more as I already am.
My day nearly came to an end.
Off I go again to pick up the bus-kid.
The sausages are in the oven and the beans only need to be heathen. White beans and mashed potatoes are on the menu. No matter how bad we eat out of the cupboard, what is left. Shopping is not scheduled for this month (exception some fruit for the children).
The kid had a better day as expected and back home it takes me less as 15 minutes to prepare dinner.
I intended not to but ate a bit.
My last meal or bite of today was at 3:40 pm.
I wrote today's freewrite and scheduled it for tomorrow.
It is bedtime for me. My warm water bags are filled. I had a good day. Yes, I go to bed early and yes, my children stay up longer.
This is my entry to the CONTEST! | My 2020: Just a normal day | Tons of Steem waiting for you hosted by @anomadsoul. Thank you @anomadsoul, @blocktrades and @ocd-witness, for this contest.
#hasil2020
My weight:
63.3 kg
Again I gained weight 😭
What I ate today
3 salty sticks, 1 terrible bitter orange, 1 Snickers, 1 tablespoon mashed potatoes (or less), 3 tablespoons white beans in tomato sauce (I had my fruit and vegetables of this week).
No Prednisone. 😐
Let's see how it works out. Apparently, my cortisol level is already extremely high.

Go slow with the jumps @wakeupkitty. My knees got screwed because I was overly excited with jumps a few months ago :D
Nice to read about your day though I can feel how cold it is there now. Hope the wood from the teacher arrived. Take care there <3
@marblely I will. This morning I heard my knees and I never do. Perhaps I should stop with it. 🤔
De todo un poco amiga @wakeupkitty.
A little bit of a friend @wakeupkitty.
@gertu 😁😘💕
