I missed hanging out here yesterday but I had to sacrifice my time for something that couldn't wait, I always feel relieved because I can catch up with my engagement here but there are things outside the social world that can't wait and not paying attention or giving it the necessary time or attention could be disastrous.
One of them is our health, I read a few articles yesterday while I was covered in my blanket shaking and some had to do health issues. I concluded in myself that a lot of us are driving ourselves hard just to stay in touch with the digital world and that is awesome but it shouldn't be at the expense of our well-being.
This is not been targeted at anyone and I am not a saint either because there are nights I deprive myself of sleep just to do some extra target on platforms. Our body belongs to us and we all know what every feeling means, ignoring the warning signs our body is showing could be dangerous.
For us to stay active on social platforms, we must seek stable health physically and mentally. It wouldn't make sense for us to lose our minds after achieving our dreams in life, keeping in check with our health is very important.
I will plead with everyone on the platform to please know when to rest, sleep, exercise, and even have fun. We ain't robots, even robots go through rest when under maintenance and I hope I haven't offended anyone with this, I love you all.
My Friday Experience
I couldn't post an article yesterday despite feeling strong to do so, I had to channel the strength into something else which happens to be sorting.
It wasn't planned because I was waiting for the fishes to mark a month before sorting but I noticed that some are growing fast and it is best to sort so that you can give others the space to grow as well.
I woke up to a rainy Friday morning, I didn't know how long it has been raining so I decided to set out for the farm because my mind is always there when it is raining and not knowing it started made me felt very uneasy.
My mom came out of her while she had me opening the door, she was like the rain is too heavy and windy at the same time but I had no choice. She fetched me the raincoat and I set out immediately, I was wet even with the raincoat because of the wind but I made it to the farm. I fed the big fishes and decided to sort the small ones when I noticed there was a huge difference, I reduced the pond water as well because it has overfilled and I didn't know how much it would still rain.
I went back home and got cold, I was shaking but some things have to be done regardless of what's happening. The cold prevented me from engaging online and I had to set out for the sorting immediately after the rain stopped.
It took a long time because I had to do it alone since my siblings weren't home, I wish I could have reached out to @Kushyzee or @Mhizutty to come to help out but I was sure they were busy with something at their end as well.
I had to wait to pump water into the ponds and even feed them as well.
On my way out of the farm, I met people who wanted some fishes so I went back and stay longer to avoid going and coming because of people who needed the fish for the weekend.
I got home tired, I was too tired than I thought I would be and I just had to do away with my phone because once I lay my hands on it I wouldn't want to drop it so easily.
Food was the next thing on my mind, a few spoons of rice was what I had before going out so I needed something huge to give to those worms but I disappointed them because my arms were too weak to do anything serious.
I did justice to the catfish I bought and made pepper soup out of it, it was quite easy and fast since I necessary recipe but I messed up by adding too much water and sauce.
I had no choice but to eat it while it was hot, the excess sauce can be contained in the soup when it is hot and that wouldn't be the case when it gets cold.
A warm bath followed, sorry I didn't have anyone to snap while I was bathing so I wouldn't be uploading pictures of that. (Just kidding)
I eventually slept off forcing myself to watch the match between Southampton and Aston Villa, I woke to see the scores now and I am happy one of the players in my fantasy football team gave me 9 points already.
I wish everyone in my team would give me 9 points each today.
Today's Expectations
Aside from feeding the fishes, I have no business at the farm so it would give me time to do sometimes today Saturday, 6th of November and they include:
Football: I think @Olasquare should host me today so that we can watch Manchester United vs Manchester City match together, it is a derby I am always looking forward to.
United victory against Tottenham, the double comeback against Atlanta makes me believe that there is more to the team and they might be unleashing more of their dragons today against the city rival.
Movie: I have mandated myself to watch at least one movie every weekend and I have about four downloaded but I am not sure which to watch first.
I will definitely choose one somehow and if you have seen any of the four, kindly recommend the interesting one.
Engaging on (noise and read) cash: Due to my absence on Friday, I do be spending a lot of time online as long as I have the strength to do so.
I am wishing everyone a beautiful weekend.
Awww and am at home doing nothing you should have call me to come and eat pepper- soup now
