A Couple of Days at my Parents

When was the last time I published an article? Some three days ago, I think. I was not even active recently and seldomly read articles. I was only able to publish an article of "The Quest" because I was afraid the bot might forget me.😁 But in fact, that was an article some six months ago but was never noticed by the bot, just reposted it. On Sunday, we went to our parents house in town because they kept calling that they missed us especially the kids. So I didn't decline this time because everytime they tell us to visit them, I kept telling them we can't. It's because I can't carry my toddler up the road to wait for a jeepney. That's why I nagged my husband about it for not able to send us and thankfully this time he told me he would carry our youngest. So off we go. Everytime we are at my parents, I can't bring myself to write an article. Literally, it's a time for me to rest. To free myself from stresses when we're at our house. That's one reason I didn't bring my son's modules because I want to completely be out of thinking things that need to be done. One funny thing when I am at my parents was the need to sleep even during the late hours of the morning that would continue until dusk. And I would sleep as early after dinner. It's as if my body was very tired from long strenuous days of labor. The two days stay wasn't enough for me to get myself from worries and responsibilities but we need to go home. Modules of my son are waiting. I also have to at least get myself back on writing because I need to.

There were times I get really lazy and can't get myself to write and yes, it gets stressing sometimes to think of topics to write everyday. But the need to is really strong. Sometimes, I just lay in bed and let the day unproductive even if my mind is dictating me to get things done. There are reasons why I have to pursue on my writing, aside from my passion to get going. 1. **1BCH Goal.** Like anyone else here, on this platform I am one who had been aspiring to at least hold an amount of 1BCH. It may be small amount for some who had exceeded one bch but for me is already an achievement if ever I would be able to reach it. For 11 months, I was not yet able to accumulate that amount because in the past I converted my earnings into fiat currency everytime I see the price go green. I used it to purchase our needed things in our house and for my kids needs as well. Sometimes I get things for myself as a reward for the efforts I have been exerting. Eleven months of a roller coaster ride and I am hoping I can reach 1bch on or before I turned a year old in this wonderful site. 2. I will be **due on my pregnancy** by August and on that time for sure I won't be able to write articles. That means no articles, no earnings. Having to earn and accumulate before that time for my 1bch goal means I need not to worry enough if there were times that I couldn't produce articles. At least I am able to secure at least 1bch that I could profit from one day when bitcoincash would reach the predictions of bch enthusiasts. When I reached that goal then I don't need to pressure myself to keep pushing thru like what I used to. And it's impossible to produce an article a day when you have a new babe that will take every second of every minute of my time.

Going back on our stay in my parents house, the two days were all worth it. My daughter whom I have noticed that her hair was having split ends get it cut short by their granny. Same with my youngest son with long hair gets it cut. After the haircut, with him playing on my dad's lap and my mom trying to make a good cut failed. He was even more like a girl than a boy. His long hair suited him better. The green fields outside and the freshly gathered vegetables helped me restore the energy I needed. I was able to rest for a bit. I wanted to stay a li'l longer but I was thinking of my son's modules, drafts that needed to be done and get published, the mountains of laundry and unwashed dishes we left. Thus, my father brought us home even if he just came from the hospital for a check-up. 05-09-21 z_graeden
