CONTEST 6 of steemkids: MY WORST CHILDHOOD CHORES @jennykel56
Good evening steemkids. It is an opportunity to express my feelings in writing about the chores I despise with passion. There is an adage that says another mans food is another mans poision. It is not a poison per se but I feel for those especially my age mates then carrying out the tasks.
My worst childhood chores I hates so much based on heirarchy:
1)Fetching of water(most worst of them all)
2)Washing my siblings clothings
3)Washing of pots
FETCHING OF WATER
To be frank uptill now I hate fetching of water. Is not even an option to stay in any house without water rushing in to the flat. I would rather not pack into the house than to start delibrating on how to get water to the bulding. My childhood days I prefer sweeping the house, mobbing of floors, preparing breakfast or helping to prepare dinner than to fetch water. Dear steemkids, to be honest I can bribe any of my siblings to fetch water when is my turn to do so. I would rather give an excuse with any other thing than seeing myself fetching water.
I always feel horrible whenever I remember is my turn to fetch water. I can almost do anything for my siblings who accepts to do it for me. Whenever my mum insist I should instead of me to carry it on my head, Dear steemkids i would drag it with my hands to the house and be panting as if life want to leave me that is the height of the dislike.
Do you know currently where am doing my housemanship, I was told that my accomodation doesn't have water rushing in it. I have to stay with a coleague in her own apartment untill the water issue was fixed before I moved into my flat.
WASHING OF MY SIBLINGS CLOTHINGS
This is the second worst chores I don't like doing when I was growning up. I said it not because i don't love my siblings, I love them but dear steemkids washing their clothes is like punishent honestly. You know kids and their play play lifestyle. Imagine washing a white clothes that have been used to play on the sand for a very long time. It is not just one, that you will say is managing but several of them alike. Normally, as a teenager I have learnt to be more neat and clean in my dressing, mind how to eat so that I will not dirty my clothes because i know is hard to wash and I will be the one to wash them but not my younger siblings. It was the grace of God that I didn't develop witlow those times. I can wash their clothes now because they are grown ups they might not even want me to do so.
WASHING OF DARK POTS
Wow! I remembered my childhood so much that I feel is just yesterday. My childhood days we used stove in our family and you know what comes with it the back of the pots looks horrible as the day progress and you need to keep it neat atleast. As the first child that is part of my house chores on saturdays and you have to wash it well. Sometimes when my mum comes back from the market and feels you didnt wash it well my dear steemkids you have to rewash them or do you want your mum to rewash it for you. You know that statement from mum "look at the back of this pot did you really washed this" where are you? Oya take it and wash it clean. I thank God for gas. Those days are bygones.
Thank you steemkids for this opportunity to express my experience of part of my childhood in writing.
One love!
