The search😉

It was a very hot monday morning when I woke up from my bed and had to do the house chores, the kids were already awake and already running about the house, knew I had much work to do that day, so I took in my ear pods and put them in my ears so I could have an extra 30 minutes sleep, just as I was about dozing off, I heard my son calling "mommy mommy, I want to eat", I pretended like I didn't hear so he could go away, but no he didn't, this time he got on the bed and shook me " mommy, I know you heard me, please come and give I and Jojo food, we want to eat" and so I got up and smiled "jam you like food too much, it's just 6:30 am " I said while looking at the time on my mobile phone.

I dragged myself to the kitchen, and while passing the living room I saw the mess they had already done to it. "I can't go back to sleep at this rate," I thought to myself, already calculating where to begin my cleaning and so when I got to the kitchen, I quickly got out the pot from under the cupboard, I took a mental note to also arrange the cupboard as this was my daughter's play area, I had always warned her not to play in the kitchen, but for a child who is a year and eleven months old, I know those warnings don't go into her head. Well, that's the life of being a mother.

After I had prepared some rice and stew for them, I added some eggs to make sure they get some protein while eating the carbohydrate, I served them and gave them some water too, well I decided to start by washing the clothes "Oh no there isn't power supply, I have to use my hands to wash now instead of the washing machine " I thought to myself, I was done with that after an hour "yay thank God they weren't much, it would have taken me more time" still thinking to myself. I guess I do a lot of thinking to myself when I am home, and doing chores, like my mind would be calculating things I need to do for the day.

Now, this was where the problem started, I couldn't find the broom and dust pan "Jam where are the broom and dustpan?" I asked my soon-to-be five-year-old son, "Mommy I don't know, I think I remembered Jojo using it to play yesterday night" he answered me, after searching and searching for what seemed like hours, I was already frustrated. " will I not clean the house today, because I can't find the broom? Or should I go and buy another one? , but I don't have any money on me now" I said to myself again.

At this point I had to go outside to also look for it, thinking out loud " It might be that they took it outside to play again". But I couldn't find it and the time was already fast spent. I hadn't even eaten something yet, and wouldn't even be able to eat if I don't get the house cleaned up, "Ah why me this morning ?" I lamented.

So I went to my neighbor's balcony and took her broom " Let me just use this for today I will have to search carefully again for mine, I am sure these kids have placed them somewhere" so I started cleaning the kitchen and then moved to the bathroom, also did some cleaning there, and while I was about cleaning the room, I tried to lift the pile of clothes I had dropped on the chair in the room, and while lifting, I left something piercing my palm and there was the broom in the pile of clothes, "who put them here?" I knew that was a question I wouldn't get any answer for.

"Ah, what a day!" I exclaimed .
