Weekly Contest 12 || The Diary Game || Tuesday, Oct. 31st, 2023 – Another Stressful Day in My Life

Hello Steemians, I hope you all are well and enjoying your daily lives. Thanks to @m-fdo for giving us chance to participate in this unique contest. Here, I am sharing how I spent my day on Tuesday, Oct. 31st, 2023.

I woke up at around 6:30 am as the garbage collector comes daily at 7 in the morning. Then, after getting fresh, I prepared a cup of tea for myself. Reading the newspaper with a cup of tea is an obvious way for me to start my day.

Then I went to my mom's room and changed her diaper. My mother has been bedridden for the last three years and can't move herself. After freshening her up, I gave my mom her morning tea.

I went to a nearby grocery shop at around 8:30 am to buy bread and eggs for our breakfast.

After having breakfast, my mother fell asleep again, and I got engaged in daily household chores. After finishing my house cleaning jobs, I boiled rice and cooked mixed vegetable fry and fish curry. I had to cook a light fish broth separately as she could not digest spicy curry.

After bathing my mother, I helped her complete lunch. She used to eat very little food. Then I gave her some prescribed medicines and said to her, "Sleep now."

Afterward, I took a shower and completed my own lunch. I took a half-hour power nap after that.

At around 4:00 pm, I went for a brisk walk. It is part of my daily routine and helps me a lot to live a stress-free life. After returning home, I offered my evening prayer to God.

My mother is still sleeping, so I started writing an interesting post for Steemit titled This Mysterious Ice Cave Produces Ice Only In Summer.

Both of us had completed our dinner with the same menu we had for lunch by 10:30 pm. My mom fell asleep after having her medicines. Then I turned on my laptop and read some engaging posts on Hind Whale community. I tried to post comments, but my lower SP prevented me from doing so. So I went to go to sleep.

I know many of you may not like my daily routine. Even I don't like my daily monotonous routine jobs, but I don't have any other option. I already lost my father in 2017, and I don't know how long I can keep my mother with me. Anyway, it's a part of our lives, and everybody has their own problems.

I would like to invite @nushrat, @yousha4 and @pubity to participate in this engaging contest.
