First, At exactly 5 AM I started to cook rice for our breakfast and I also boiled water for our Coffee. This is what I always do as part of my Obligations. It is good to went to the Market early in the morning so we can avoided intense heat and can also avoided crowded of people and vehicles.
Doing work at the kitchen just like cooking foods and boiling water is very easy because I have lots of firewoods I can used. Last day, We gathered lots of firewoods and we put it in the empty sacks. This firewoods we have is good for week uses and I placed it away from the kitchen so it wont catch the fire.
A few minutes after I've finished my Kitchen obligations, We hurriedly went to the public faucet area not far enough from our house and as we arrived there, our neighbors was already there waiting for their turn to fetch clean water. Well, it will be expected to wait a few minutes before I can fetch water. I brought three Galloons and I wait for a few minutes. This is what we always do every morning and for me this is very hard obligations we always do here.
After fetching water, I started to eat our breakfast and dried fish is our food for this morning. I fried it and it is good to eat this specially when there is a hot coffee.
After eating our breakfast, we started to prepare the things we want to brought and begin walking a few meters so we can wait passenger vehicles at the streets. The place was still very quite and only vehicles passing by. My Husband told me to take a walk going to the supermarket because it is very perfect to do this kind of activities every morning and a good kind of simple exercises. It takes almost an hour before we finally arrived at the supermarket and the place was still very quite.
