Day 3 Without Social Media

Saturday, November 13, 2021




I was supposed to go to church today. I was asked to sing on the praise team like most Saturdays, I said yes got out my clothing and everything. I have been playing worship songs since 5 that Fridayriday evening and I was ready for the Sabbath. However, when everyone went to bed I simply couldn't sleep.


So Friday night straight up to this morning I was getting some work done. I was working on a book that I have been writing for 6 months now, I doubt anyone would ever get to read it. After that, I started some work on this beautiful website you are on. Give me a minute to thank you for reading my blog. Even if it's just 1 or 5 persons I will be so thankful because it is a lot of work to create a website especially when you don't know what you are doing.


Anyways, By the time I was done doing all that I was doing it was 5:30 AM...AM.

There was no way I could survive a day at church especially when I was expected to sing non-stop. I was sure I would get sick but I wanted to go. I didn't go the week before and I already confirmed with the church that I will be helping with the praise team. I know it's stupid but I made a commitment, I confirmed with them just a couple of hours ago and I know it would be hard to find a last-minute replacement.


My mom on the other hand was like "No". "You are not going, it's 7 am You literally just went to bed 2 hours ago, you need more sleep, I will call the church." In this case I that's safe to say mama knows best.


She made the call, came back and told me that she told them I was not feeling good. I felt kinda guilty because even though it wasn't a lie just saying "She doesn't feel good." was kinda vague. And it was my fault for not going to bed. I got a well-deserved sleep tho.


I was up again now around 10 AM and I had to get breakfast and ready to meet my mom in Old Harbour. Since school is expected to be open on Monday we have to get a shoe. My shoe from 2 years ago looked so bad. I don't know where was it but I am sure if it was put up properly we wouldn't have to buy new shoes.


We walked to and from the shopping centre to Sammy's. I know time is hard but why does every shoe has to be $4000 and up? It's a pandemic people, we won't be wearing them that often. And don't let me get started on the styles.


Everything was UGLY

It was so frustrated to choose between ugly shoes. All of a sudden Covid took away everyone's creativity. I eventually just chose a shoe, and the lady who sold me at Sammy's is now my new best friend. Everyone knows how parents get when it comes to shoe shopping, they behave like they were the ones wearing it. But this lady only gave me shoes that I liked and every time my mom asked for a shoe that I didn't want to wear, she told her they ran out of my size.


Okay, I think I have been talking for a while so let's just end this post with a scripture.

But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us. - Romans 5:8
