sin luz / no light [ESP/ENG]
Saludos a todos amigos de hive, ¡espero estén súper bien ¡el tiempo pasa muy rápido! En esta nueva edición de mi vida les contaré un día muy normal, con una pequeña variación por culpa de la electricidad, y como siempre trabajando mucho en hive. ¡Empecemos!
Greetings to all my hive friends, I hope you are doing well, time goes by so fast! In this new edition of my life I will tell you about a very normal day, with a small variation due to electricity, and as always working hard on hive. Let's start!
Today I had to work under candlelight. Photo of my property.
I got up relatively early for my usual time. I set up my room and also helped my mum in the kitchen to clean up; I had some delicious tequeños for breakfast along with a new artificial lemon juice that arrived in my city and is becoming very popular; it's called "Panelada" and it's literally a lemon juice with colouring. After breakfast, I spent some time looking at the posts and curing them, I don't have much power but we have to support our community account,

Por un momento, mi abuela visitó nuestra casa con algunas compras que habían hecho en conjunto horas antes de que yo me despertara; repartieron lo que cada una necesitaba para hacer el almuerzo. Se quedó poco rato; luego de comer y pasar un rato con mi abuela, me puse a escribir
For a moment, my grandmother visited our house with some shopping they had done together hours before I woke up; they divided up what each of them needed to make lunch. She stayed for a short while; after eating and spending some time with my grandmother, I started writing
La reseña
Cuando se hicieron las tres de la tarde, mi mamá y yo fuimos a buscar a mi papá a la parada del autobús donde regresa de su trabajo.
When it was three o'clock in the afternoon, my mum and I went to pick up my dad from the bus stop where he comes home from work.

En el camino, mi mamá y yo acordamos que le compraríamos comida a mis gatitas, ya que se les había acabado y no había fondos, además de los míos, para comprar. Mi papá me ayudó a retirar el dinero de mi cuenta de hive; sacamos lo que equivaldría a 30 bolívares según mi cálculo de lo que costaría todo, porque también deseaba comprarle un café a mi mamá. Aunque a mí no me gusta el café, mi mamá lo necesita para vivir y es su bebida favorita.
On the way, my mum and I agreed that we would buy food for my kitties, as they had run out and there were no funds besides my own to buy. My dad helped me withdraw the money from my hive account; we took out what would amount to 30 bolivars according to my estimate of what everything would cost, because I also wanted to buy my mum a coffee. Although I don't like coffee, my mum needs it to live and it's her favourite drink.
Después de dejar a mi papá en la casa, fuimos a comprar nuestra pequeña lista de productos requeridos: café, un kilo de comida para mis animalitos y unos helados económicos. Se preguntarán: ¿cómo que helados? Un señor que trabaja en un negocio cercano a la casa colocó una pequeña venta de helados también. Para apoyar (y darnos un gusto, obviamente) compramos dos helados bastante económicos; cada uno costó 10 bolívares, cosa que me impactó. Estaban más ricos de lo que esperé.
After dropping my dad off at home, we went shopping for our little list of necessities: coffee, a kilo of food for my little animals and some cheap ice cream. You may ask: what do you mean, ice cream? A man who works in a shop near the house set up a small ice-cream shop as well. To support (and treat ourselves, obviously) we bought two very cheap ice creams; each one cost 10 bolivares, which shocked me. They were richer than I expected.

Mi mamá me llevó a brindar su café a la casa de mi abuela, donde lo repartieron mitad y mitad; ellas siempre disfrutan tomando su café y conversando durante horas, y yo, en parte, sólo soy una espectadora, ya que no me gusta esa bebida pero sí que me gusta escuchar sus cuentos.
My mum took me to toast her coffee at my grandmother's house, where they split it half and half; they always enjoy drinking their coffee and talking for hours, and I am partly just a spectator, as I don't like that drink but I do like to listen to their stories.

Después de conversar durante un largo rato, mi mamá y yo regresamos a la casa. Para nuestra mala suerte, la electricidad se fue casi de inmediato; últimamente estamos teniendo más tiempo sin luz, se va en horas inexplicables y permanece así por mínimo tres horas. Me horroricé cuando vi que mi teléfono solo tenía un 20% de batería, así que coloqué el modo avión mientras. Me dediqué a continuar mi reseña y mi diario al lado de la vela que alumbraba la sala para no quedarme tan afectada visualmente.
After talking for a long time, my mother and I returned to the house. Unluckily for us, the electricity went out almost immediately; lately we are having more and more time without power, it goes out at inexplicable times and stays out for at least three hours. I was horrified when I saw that my phone ha

My mum finished dinner without electricity; I ate a nice baked potato with cream and, when I finished, I dedicated myself to finishing my posts in the notes app to have them ready when the electricity came on, which happened at 11:15 pm.
