A Day of Early Mornings, Responsibilities, feeding my pet and Quiet Family Moments

Hello, dear friends! How is everyone doing? I hope you are all well and enjoying your time with your loved ones, no matter where you are. Today, I want to share another day of my life with you all. I hope you find some time to read my post and that you find it enjoyable enough to upvote.

Again, I got up very early in the morning. I started my day by performing ablution and offering the morning prayers. The temperature has dropped sharply, and it is winter here, but unfortunately it is dry. This dryness has brought some challenges. People here are not fond of such weather and prefer to have some precipitation in winter to get some relief from flu and related illnesses.

After returning, I went back to bed for a while, but my mom had already woken up. She was not feeling well and was waiting for me to help her with the early morning chores. My mom is very considerate toward her daughter-in-law, as she is carrying a baby, and doing early morning chores is difficult for her. To give her more rest, my mom tries to do the morning chores herself, and I was there to help her, so I did not sleep again.

After finishing the household work, I had breakfast. Our cat was already there, trying to satiate her hunger, making her usual meow-meow sounds outside the door. I responded to her and stayed for some time in the lawn. I gave her some biscuits and milk. Then it was time to help my mom again with the vegetables she was preparing for dinner. Some more jobs were also to be done, like drying cucumber seeds in the open air so that they could be stored and sown next year.

Today, I was told to stay at home instead of going to the office because I had some online work regarding verification of old digital records uploaded by a private firm. This allowed me to do my office work as well as help my mother. I became so absorbed in work that I did not realise how fast the time passed. The online portal was very slow, so the work that could have been completed in an hour took more than three hours. Meanwhile, I went for a couple of brisk walks near my house, as I could not go far due to concern about my mother’s health. I had to check her blood pressure repeatedly to ensure it did not shoot up again, as it did a few days ago.

Later, my mother told me to bring some radish and other vegetables from the store outside our house so that she could make salad for dinner. I agreed, brought radish and carrots, and cucumbers were already in the fridge. We had our dinner together, and despite the worries in my mind, we spent some time in the living room afterward. Those light moments helped our worries fade away and allowed us to end the day on a positive note.

Thank you for going through my post. Have a great time ahead.
