A Peaceful and Lively Day at Home - August 12th, 2026

Good evening Steemians, it’s your girl here again ❤️
Today was such a calm, lively, and interesting day for me. Let me take you through how I spent my August 12th

My day started just like every other day. I woke up early, said my morning devotion, and thanked God for a new day. After my prayers, I stepped outside to get some fresh air. I lay on my burglary-proof door for a while and just enjoyed the cool morning breeze. It felt so refreshing and peaceful.

After that, I started my daily routine. The first thing I did was clean my grasscutter cage. They were busy running around, looking so playful. I fed them and sat down for some minutes just to watch them move. There’s something about watching animals eat that always calms me down.

When I was done with that, I swept my room and arranged everything neatly. A clean environment always makes me feel good inside.

Later, I decided to make something for myself. I brought out debino and dry tiger nut to wash. Before washing, I had to break the dates one by one to remove the seeds inside. It was a bit stressful but worth it because I love the taste.

While I was in the kitchen, I also sent my landlord’s son to help me buy two eggs. I put water on fire and started cooking noodles. I added spices, pepper, onions, and tomatoes to make it tasty. Just as the noodles were almost ready, he brought the eggs.

Here’s where things got funny. I broke the first egg and saw two yolks inside one shell. I was so surprised. I said to myself, "Wait, is this normal?" Then I broke the second one and guess what? It also had two yolks! Omo, my mind started running. I began to think, "Abi they don dey use chemicals do these eggs these days?" 😂

I got curious so I went to Google to check. From what I read, it’s likely that the egg came from a young hen that just started laying eggs. So it’s natural and not dangerous. That explanation calmed me down. I fried the eggs and served my food.

I sat down, ate my delicious noodles and eggs while watching movies on my phone. The food tasted so good and the movies made it even better.

After eating, I went to take my bath. I cleaned up, dressed, and boom — straight to bed. I slept for a while and when I woke up, I was feeling a bit hungry again. So I decided to cook rice and beans. It turned out really nice and I enjoyed every bite.

For the rest of the evening, I just chilled with my phone. I watched 3 different movies and they were all so interesting. Laughing, relaxing, and eating good food — that’s all I needed.

All in all, my day was lively, fun, and full of small little moments that made me happy. Sometimes the simple things like cooking, watching animals, and watching movies are what make life beautiful.

Thank you all for reading my diary. I hope you enjoyed it.
