No longer fun but a relax shot.

I've been hearing a lot lately about how fun is weekend and how good is its arrival. I honestly don't remember the last fun weekend I had or the last planned weekend I could developed aimed to light fun.

I have to admit I feel a bit envious when reading that kind of things, cause I once looked forward to weekends arrival, not anymore.

Slavery.

Well, weekends are bringing a lot of work These days, there's so much we have been leaving behind and many things that we have been letting accumulate due to the dynamics that our lives have taken lately.

Mostly I've been forced to stop planning stuff, I'm a slave, slaves are not allowed to plan, and yes, it's so to say it but it's not easy to find a way or a solution to Take me away or out of this situation. They say there is no evil that lasts 100 years nor a body that can resist it.

But I'll get through this, I know I will...Dead or alive, guess it's life law, right?😁

Oh, slavery almost forget it.

Well, it turns out we're slaves to electricity and its continuous lack of electricity for more than 18 hours a day. Slaves because, since we depend on it for almost everything, we have to take advantage of its presence to do everything from washing, cooking, collecting water, cleaning, charging cell phones and rechargeable fans—in short, a host of tasks that can only be done with electricity.

For example, right now it's 4:11 am on Saturday, the electricity has been on since approximately 2:30 am and here I am awake, collecting water in tanks, because when there's no electricity there's no water, boiling water to then filter it for drinking cause in the natural state it comesbecause it is not drinkable can't be , charging cell phones and fans and taking advantage of the connection to write this post.

There are a lot of detailed examples, but I'm not doing that, complaining or digging into this country lacks won't bring a solution and get you guys bored to the spine.

A little window.

Last saturday, since my girl and I were alone at home,meaning my sons wouldn't come until Sunday and her little daughter was in her grandparent's, we decided to leave responsibilities aside, forget about electricity and house work and after an afternoon nap we needed, we bought a drink to carrie and went out with Harry, our dog, for a walk to the highway bridge that's about 2 miles from home.

It might not sound as the great plan but it was to us, we needed to get out of that hot, electricity-free apartment for a while and change of scenery, get some fresh air, have a drink, chat quietly and listen to some relaxed music.
What are we going to do for dinner? She told me, don't worry, we'll come up with something that won't take so long.
And so we did...

And we sat there, talked, drank, laughed, relaxed, listened to music, forgot for a couple of hours about all the problems there are, about the lack of electricity and about the "mother of tomatoes"...that's a saying here to refer to everything, everything, everything...😁

And yes, we were a bit Happier after that, and we returned home with more energy, and luckily electricity came back that night at least for 2 hours, and that was it.

Sunday came with children, house work, charcoal stove, preparations for school on Monday and all the usual Sundays without electricity and with it, but at least we had a break that perhaps came a little closer to being fun.

And of course, I've been dropping through the post my #saturdayselections, I know, I know, I'll gather them all down here for you guys.👇😉
