[LOH#158] DEAR DIARY~ I'M FINE.
It's had been a while I had a diary, it's been a very long time, I remember being a teenager and having a diary that I wrote my stuff in and it was always frustrating to have some one mostly my sisters go pick it up and read what ever that was in it, that discouraged me in ever keeping another diary.
For this ladies of hive contest, my entry goes thus:
Dear Diary,
There has been a lot on my mind lately and it has been giving me a lot of worries, as a mom, I have got tons of work to do (home and school), and of late I and hubby argued about our financial status, we are mostly living on loans nowadays.
It hasn't been easy trying to keep up with the high cost of things in the economy. Our argument was centered around my schooling and also how I wanted to go get a job which I knew wouldn't benefit me in any way.
The first is my schooling, it has been draining my earnings and when I don't write on hive I don't earn and even most times when it feels like I don't want to do anything I still find myself trying to write.
The other thing is getting a job, it really isn't going to be an easy task getting a paying job around here, the only job available here is teaching and one if not paid we'll without having a good certificate. Though I know this, I still told my husband about working and he was against the idea and I understood where he stood. Our community roads are bad so it isn't always getting to the main road and the transportation fare now is on the high side.
After much argument and sitting down to think about it only possible solution was to take my hiving engagement seriously and and job I decided to do now would take my whole time, which I don't want
If only our road could be done, then it would be easier for people like me to search for better jobs outside.
The high cost of products, food, etc in the economy is seriously affecting a lot of us and we don't have an extra source of income also because the government refused to fix the roads, dear diary, I can only pray for better days ahead.
Dear Diary,
Yesterday was rather a funny day because I undid something I recently did to please someone else, my elder sister has been pleading with me to help her do her hair, but I have been feeling reluctant because her is us took hard to do, but yesterday she forced me to do it and I had to forcefully remove my nails I had just fixed, it's kinda funny because I had reasons as to why I did the nails only to have them removed because I wouldn't be able to make her hair with them on, though she promised to give me money to fix them back
I didn't finish with it yesterday because it was dark already and I couldn't see well, I promised to continue as early as 9an this morning, but the funniest fact is I am still in my house and it's almost one o'clock, I will try to finish it up so I can have a mental rest.

Oh God! This bad economy is really taking a toll on many people.
I am a student too, running my program myself, so I understand partly from the angle you are coming from.
For months I have been running around trying to get a job, especially a part-time job as I am a regular student but it has all been futile but, there have been many results, the good places do not need a part-time worker, the pay isn't good or the transportation to and fro is a total of the salary they are willing to pay me as a part-time worker and this is as a result of the hike of things, especially fuel.
I have expenses, feeding, school fees, textbooks, and materials to buy, and also transportation to and fro school, which is a lot. Imagine spending a thousand naira for just one day to and fro a job of eighteen thousand going the whole days in the week, I mean what then is the reason for the job.
I have resigned my fate to Hive in the meantime even though I know I won't be as consistent as before because the school load is much heavier than the other sessions but I hope to scale through. So if I say I understand your plight and that of the perspective of your husband partly, I am not wrong but in all of this, You will come out strong and victorious, regardless of the challenges and storms of life.
Wish you the very best
Oh no, this economy is not smiling at all , God will surely help us, I have also resigned to hive because no job will pay me well and if I get a job, it will mean about 3000naira transportation fee for 30thousand job what's my gain or hope there.
Omo, lets just continue hiving
I tell you, Hive here we come. 😆
Hive be saving lives
True, very true
