Hello hivers! How's your day struggling with the covid19 pandemic? Whatever it is? let us face it positively.

I was then always busy but no complaint because it's my kind of job. I'm an all-around household worker for how many long years but this quarantine time made something different. I'm really facing the great challenges after the spreading of coronavirus19 pandemic.

FEBRUARY 27, 2020 my first day of the challenge.

Saudi Arabia's government made alarming news. All mobile numbers had got an individual message from the national telecommunications for some warnings and precautions. They informed all the people.

Later on, all schools from kindergarten to all universities were halted quickly and they had been in online classes. This is the first start of my challenge. How could I imagine being with all the members of my employer's family within 24 hours?

Why I said it's a great challenge?

When they are all around, the restaurant were all closed, I had it in my mind that the ladies will cook and bake like what they did every weekend. They cooked for themselves but the mess they made will shocking. All kitchen stuff will be out but I know I could make it easier.
I'm just worried, I could not write my post on time. The challenge is for my time to go write and do my online world.

The covid19 pandemic is already a challenging point in our life but we have to accept and be ready once it affected our health. I could be the worst situation affecting our lifestyle but I would handle it as long as we are safe, our health will not be affected.

MARCH 02,2020 TUESDAY - WORST OF ALL WORST LIFE CHALLENGE!

My mother who was a dialysis patient died last March 02 between 1:00 pm to 3:00 pm Philippines time. She was just sleeping after her last lunch. It was morning here in my workplace. I didn't understand my feeling. Three days before she died, I talked to her that I will go home to take care of her but she refused. She told me if I will go home, who will help with our financial needs? She was fine according to her words.

I told my employer that I wanna go home. When they went to process my papers, we learned that I could possibly go to see my mother but coming back had a big question mark. I negotiated everyone and for my safety, they decided for me to stay. I agreed that decision and every day I was watching live the wake of my mother until her last day on earth. Anyway, I am so grateful to God that my mother has no pain anymore. He escaped the chaos of having this pandemic. I still consider it a great blessing for us and for our mother. We are living in the mountain and transport to the city is too hard during the lockdown.

After 9 days of the death of my mother, she was buried and still I was watching through live on Facebook. It was our last goodbye to our mother dear.

March 20, 2020, another challenge happened.

All my siblings are living in different places in the country. After the burial, they were also going home to their respective place.

There are two of my siblings who are living in our town. One of them, the youngest one, became a PERSON OF INTEREST AND LATER BECAME A PERSON UNDER MONITOR WITH COVID19. She had undergone a self-quarantine. I didn't know what to do. If she will become positive with the coronavirus, all the members of the family will be in self-quarantine. How about the people who attended the burial of my mother? It scared me so much but I entrusted everything to God above.

My sister is a midwife working in the hospital amidst the spreading of the virus. Thank God! after 14 days, it turned out negative and no bad sign in her health.

The corona virus19 triggered the health of the people, The lockdown and quarantine are the best implementation of avoiding fatal casualties. This is really a kind of challenge in our life that everyone should look up sincerely.

Now a day, we are now on a 24hours lockdown but thanks God, my employer is buying all the necessities we need. I am not worried about myself. I trust the power of God to a role in His power against this pandemic. We can do it and survive. I'm ready to die but as a human being, I need to see my son and his small children be safe and sound good.

Back to my work on April 10, 2020

Too busy is not a reason to surrender to my job. Working almost 24 hours without paying overtime pay is a great challenge to my side. Instead of getting mad, I enjoy myself in making my post in hive every day. Who knows at the end of April I will get double salary.

To avoid negativity, I tried to make something new, repent, forgive and forget. And review relation to God.

Yesterday, I was so lonely, I got a pen and draw the place where I was born. It turned so nice for me but I don't know how you rate this.
My dream house to live while in quarantine.

I'm giving challenge to everyone that today is the right time to give time and importance in living in the province. We need to revive the land given to us from our great grandparents.
