I was a busy bee this last day of weekend. This day is meant for us to rest but some of us chose to work or do something for us to be productive even of it's weekend. I know that mothers and fathers through put the world did the laundry every weekend. Also the students who live far away from their home do this thing everyday if their set of clothes are limited. For me, I do the laundry every weekend, its either saturday or sunday depending on my availability.
I planned to do it yesterday but the weather is not good. It's been cloudy all day and it rained a little bit. Well it's expected to happen since the weather forecast said so but still I hope that the sun will show up but it didn't so I was sad, a little bit.
So I woke up early this morning at 5 am to cook for our breakfast. I ate first and my grandmother together with my cousin ate afterwards. In doing a laundry, I need to fill my stomach first since we don't have washing machine and I do it by hand so it will consume a lot of my energy.
I just want to say that I observed some of the young ones today that they are not use to some of the household chores anymore such as this doing the laundry. They are not active anymore when it comes to this kind of activities but instead they are active on different social medias. That's why I tell to my cousins that despite their business in school activities they shouldn't neglect their duties such as helping their parents at home in weekends.
But one of the reason why they can't attend to their duties sometimes is that they are too busu in their projects and assignments. Well it's just matter of time management. I was a student also before and I know the workload of a student but still I managed to help my grandmother. Washing the dishes doesn't consume a lot of time after all and other household chores.
Moving on, I took a deep breath and began to do the laundry. As you can see in the photo I have a lot of clothes to wash since it's our clothes for the week. Sometimes I wash my clothes after I bath and my grandma is doing it also.
As you can see I did it by hands and I can say that washing all that clothes made my hand to hurt a little bit because of the friction but it's a good exercise also so it's a win-win situation for me. Doing this thing for a long time made my biceps to form into a good one even if I don't exercise, just that. Plus our source of water is that water pump and we do it manually so it's another form of exercise also.
After washing all those clothes, I began to sun dry them outside. I hanged the first batch within the streched wire from one end to the other end.
I put the second batch in our roof. Ofcourse I washed the roof first with water and powdered soap. As you can see the sun was burning hot and I was very happy because all of the clothes that I washed will be dried.
After I layed the second batch of clothes, I got a glimpse of the guavas that within my reach from it's branch near my location. I asked my cousin to get guavas with me. We got a couple of it and we continued to get some guavas when we went down. As you can see I climb the guava tree beside our house.
My tiredness due to what I did today fades away as we eat the fresh guavas we harvested. I forgot to take a picture of it so I can't show some.hihi
That concludes my busy Sunday and I hope you had a great day again. If you did the laundry just like me, I hope you're resting now as you read this.
Thank you for reading.
