Lifestyle Diary Game| 17 December 2025 | "Grocery store dues collection activities"

Assalamu Alaikum, the last few days have been very busy for me and I had many work schedules at the same time. On the 17th, it was the day to pay off our grocery store dues. I had to go because my brother couldn't handle it alone. I woke up in the morning, freshened up, had breakfast and left. I went to the terminal, bought a bus ticket, and am waiting for the bus to leave. The bus will leave in 20 minutes. I came to the nearby Tong shop to have a cup of tea and asked for milk tea. After finishing my tea, I got on the bus and left for home.

My bus stopped near Thakurgaon due to engine failure. Oil had entered the engine and mixed with the engine oil, due to which this bus would not go any further. The bus supervisor arranged another bus, which would take 15 minutes to arrive. During this time we waited there. When the bus arrived, we started our journey again by taking that bus. I reached my destination 30 minutes late.

I came straight to our market instead of going home and here Khichuri is being cooked. We are preparing light meals for the customers who have come to pay their outstanding money. We have finished cooking two decks by noon. We will do the rest of the cooking in the afternoon. After cooking, we boiled eggs to eat with these eggs Khichuri.

When the first two decks were cooked, we first ate from those who were working. After eating some of the khichuri, we are packing some of those khichuri for the customers. We will parcel the khichuri for them. I am packing enough khichuri for one person and one boiled egg. When I come home, I take a bath first and then come back to the market.

We put the last deck for cooking in the afternoon and were cooking quickly with dry chalk on the wood stove. First, we ground all the spices and then finished cooking with rice. After cooking, it was night and the burning coals of the stove were spreading great heat.

Our dues collection has started since noon. We are crowded with people in the evening. As a local market, my brother is collecting money by looking at the dues account. We are finishing other tasks. We have to collect money from our 300+ buyers at 11 pm. It's late. I'm going home with the money I collected last night. Alhamdulillah, 80% of the outstanding amount has been collected from our grocery store.
