Stepping I the showering I run the water on cold soaping my body up then washing off. Getting out the shower I decided to wear a granny nightey to bed putting my hair in a bonnet I turn the light off crawling into bed.
Tyreek called saying he’s just making sure I unblocked him and that he’s looking forward for tomorrow evening and I said same but he notice I wanted to sleep so he ended the call and now it time for me to sleep.
Putting the fan on maximum speed I pull the cover over my head drifting off to a slumber.
Sunday
9pmAs usually gospel wakes me on a Sunday every Sunday mommy turn good old faithful Christian and beat some church service on YouTube till evening come. Getting up I stagger to the bathroom wetting my face and brushing my teeth I walk back into my bedroom deciding to do a deep clean cause why not.
The break every chain song always get mi in the mood on a Sunday to clean it starts playing and I dust the ceiling down drag the bed sheets off the bed and change it along with the pillow case.
I straighten back up my dresser and make a note of the things that are almost finished in a note book I wipe down the mirror and restock the shoe case in the corner.
Sweeping then mopping the place I changed the curtains opening the windows and turning on the fan I changed the air freshener. Its time to clean my bathroom i wipe down the shower with bleach and disinfectant cleaning off the face basin then putting back the things that we’re on there back and writing down what I need.
I clean inside and outside the toilet. Time fi wash putting every dirty piece of clothes that I found laying around my room in the laundry basket I place it at my door to bring it to the washing machine soon. All the rubbish that I swept out I place it at the door as well.
Taking them up I walk to the back of the house putting all my uniforms in the washing machine and start it while separating the coloured from the whites in two different bath.
I take the rubbish and walk along the out side of the house to out front to throw it away as I reach the rubbish drum I drop it inside.

‘a wey yah come from?’ my mother ask looking at me as I enter the tru the front door.
‘outa gate mi dash wey the rubbish wey did inna my room and bathroom’
