My Ordeal by olason1(op): 4:37pm On May 18, 2020
Good day to us all. Something happened to me today and I thought I should share...

This covid season has been a very bad one for me as it has really affected my home's welfare negatively. As my profession is on top of the list of the top hit professions...

We have been managing the situation and going to bed every night with the hope of a better tomorrow. My wife decided to make nose masks for sale when the lockdown was eased but it was almost a bad venture because sellers of nose masks were flying around the place and most of them were selling for 50nra, this made input more than output.

So today, I went to the market to sell as usual. [cos I can't stand her going to stand under the sun with our less than 6months old baby] When I got back home, I met food [last rice n beans in the house] on fire... she had to use firewood cos we ran out of gas yesterday...

long story short... ladies and gentle men, I mistakenly poured the food away right there on the fire while helping her to attend to it... I went lost staring at the food on the ground, my wife's heavy laugh brought me back... she was just laughing telling me sorry[that's how to know when matter don pass cry], in my mind I was like is it not you that is on exclusive breast feeding that I should say sorry to?

Since we still have 600nra from selling nose mask, I took 100nra and bought her bread. We will use the remaining 500nra to arrange dinner and tomorrow is another day full of hopes.
Satan is a liar, we will survive .
Incase you are also going through a phase like this, it shall pass don't let it weigh you down.

PS: My wife is still searching, if you have a job for her, we will appreciate. She's a degree holder.

Chai!
Your wife's laughter proves she's at peace in a difficult situation.
Only a peaceful soul can laugh in a helpless situation.
Whatever you do, never make the situation worse by expressing frustration and venting out on her.
Protect the peace in your home and keep calm. This difficult phase shall definitely pass.
It is not lack of money that destroys a home, but lack of peace and understanding.
Cherish you wife and keep on supporting her as you're doing, she'll love and appreciate you for it.
