My Actifit Report Card: April 14 2024

I had an insomnia attack Thursday night, was quite difficult to quieten my thoughts. There were just too much to think about.

I may eventually had dozed off around 2am only to be woken up by the storm around 4am and been up till late. I had a rain trauma last year when floodwaters suddenly entered the house when I was in the middle of work (I work from home).

My passports old and new alike and some important docs were submerged in floodwaters.🙄 Because of that we decided to demolish the house thus the building of a new one now. It isn't easy particularly now that it's almost finished and my savings' draining quickly.

Despite having just over a couple of hours sleep I went ahead with my plan yesterday to go out in the morning to join my friends in the walk. And I'm happy that I managed to take a few photos.

It was nostalgic to see these huge fish ponds because when I was younger when my grandfather was still around, he used to take me, my siblings and cousins with him down fishing in his fish ponds where there's a little hut that he built where we can just chill in nice breezy afternoons, helped him do the fishing like a game and enjoyed chomping on eel and fish barbecue (he made fire using woods and twigs from the trees around, fresh cashew fruits (from the tree by the hut), and fresh toasted cashew nuts. He toasted them for us while we tried to open the cashew shell by knocking them with big, heavy enough stones so we can release the nuts one by one by one. It was fun. I missed those days, being young with no worries and I missed my grandfather. ❤

We saw a lot of milk fish in this fish pond. To be honest, because of the heat and high humidity, I felt like joining them in the water. 😂

My mother and uncle inherited these fish ponds, sadly both have passed away. When they were still around, no one seemed to know what to do with them. The problem was when my father tried to do something there (when he was still around) it only have given him frustrations because people have stolen everything that they can get there. Yeah, a good place to plant a vegetable garden, breed fish, etc. but will probably only work if we're going to build a sky high fence around it and never leave the place or at least guard it 24/7. And that's not happening, so for years the fish ponds are feeling unloved. 😔

Got excited to see birds (storks) over this fish pond and if you look closely you'll see a school of fish. The birds flew away while a friend and I stood there for a bit. 😅

When I got back, I had to do work at my desk, prepared lessons, work, etc, etc.

This is all for now...I hope you're having a fabulous weekend. Thank you so much for the visit and great support. 🤗🌹🌹🌹
