Hello, my lovely friends!🙏🏻🤍

Today I want to share the atmosphere of yesterday's evening work before closing time. Yesterday, we tackled two plots back-to-back. Mostly, it involved digging water reservoirs and leveling the land for the villagers. We were lucky that the work sites were so close together that we didn't need to move the trailer; our trusty excavator could navigate the plots on its own. My husband and I took turns driving; he drove in the morning, and I took over in the afternoon before handing it back to him for the finishing touches, which require special skill.

While waiting for my husband to finish work, I moved to find shade under a rubber tree nearby. Even though it was evening, the sun still shone with heat. I sat and watched my husband work, enjoying the moment. The only problem was the internet signal.
It was unreliable, cutting out intermittently, almost preventing me from posting. I had to take my intentions back home to continue typing.

Yesterday evening, there was a small surprise with the rain, forcing me to quickly put my phone away on the excavator and cutting me off from the outside world for quite a while. The gloomy sky made it impossible to tell the time. It wasn't until 6:30 PM that I finally shut off the engine. In total, I worked exactly 9 hours today! ✌🏻😅

🌅 A moment of healing for the heart.
After finishing work and receiving my compensation, it was time to head home. Along the way, I couldn't resist capturing images of the sky. The sky on the way back was truly breathtaking. The orange light illuminating the clouds, contrasting with the scenery along the roadside, made all the fatigue from a long day's work disappear. Those 45 minutes on the road were the most relaxing and happy I've ever felt.

Upon arriving home, my household duties began immediately. I quickly cleaned up and fed my mother-in-law, followed by feeding the parrots and the Sulcata tortoises who were eagerly awaiting dinner.
🍛 A Dinner of Sharing
I ended the day with simple yet joyful meals: bamboo shoot curry and minced pork and Chinese cabbage soup. I intentionally made a large pot of bamboo shoot curry to share. The first bowl went to my aunt's house, the second to a neighbor who helped feed my mother-in-law at lunchtime, and the third was enjoyed by our family.
No matter how hectic and tiring my schedule is, when we do everything with intention and it becomes a habit, that tiredness always turns into a fulfilling happiness. ✌🏻♥️🫰🏻🤍

Thank you to all my friends who have followed and supported me throughout. Every bit of support means a lot to me. ❤️🙏🏻🤍
