⭐ **WEEKLY 12/2024 Weekly update!** ⭐ This week I was a country girl! 😊 My brothers didn't get free days from work, so I changed plans to travel visiting the grandparents. It was only me, grandfather and grandfather's son that traveled there. We will make a better plan so that everyone can travel to visit grandparents in April (April has Thai New Year and grandparents hope to have everyone visiting then). I made a nighttime drive 🚙 to grandparents' home because there is much less traffic, and my car has very good lights. Saving time and less stress, when I can drive at night 😀 Monday we already visited the hospital with my grandfather and got operation time! Next week my grandfather will have eye surgery! 👀 Monday 25.3. afternoon to the hospital, surgery Tuesday 26.3. and one night more in hospital and back home Wednesday 27.3. if everything is okay. Then 1-2 weeks after the second eye surgery. My grandfather is old and not in very good health, so need to stay 2 nights in hospital. One night before to prepare for the operation and one night after for monitoring. I am staying here until the first eye surgery is done. Overall, this week we have been taking care of a lot of things here and fixing and thinking about what to do (road, water, buildings), pigs pen need to make bigger and also bigger "house" to sleep for them. Pigs got super big, and they need more space to move around and sleep. I also asked my grandparents to monitor better so that they do not eat too much and get too fat. We cleared up some land to start to work and I bought a fence, concrete poles and things like that ready. I also went shopping with one of my relatives. I invested in her selling grilled chicken and meatballs. She is unemployed, has no work, and now she basically lives in my grandparents' garden. Her mother died 2 years ago, and her father is not responsible for anything. She has no place to live. She does not even have basic educational qualifications to apply to work in a company. Her life is pitiful, and she never asked for money or my help. This is the first time she's asked me to help, so I bought her all the things that she needs to start selling food. Now it is up to her, if she can do it and make some money. First 2 days were good, and she made some profit. I was also helping to sell food and I even didn't eat too much! 🤭😂 Sunday road to land got damaged (again) when big trucks drove over it to fill up part of the land 😳 So, I have to get that fixed too. Road is next to a big pond and that makes it easily muddy and damaged when raining hard or big trucks driving it. I want to make a real concrete road, but that needs a lot of work and it's expensive. I currently rent 2 small houses to my kids, parents, brothers (+ their girlfriends and kids) to live in Bangkok. I am now looking for a way to get a loan or other type of finance to buy a house for all of them to live in. I am looking for a bigger house in the same village because that is close to the place where kids go to school and company where my father and brothers are working. Big thing to do, but I think it's better than paying rent for years and living cramped in 2 separate houses and can't really do any renovation and so on. I miss my puppies, kids and home, but only a few days more and then back to Bangkok and back home 🥰 As always, I spent a lot of time on the laptop and phone chatting, editing and taking care of accounts 💻😀 I also made many video calls this week and I'm sorry that sometimes the internet was slow, and connection was bad! This is living in countryside 🤔 My first post was 26th March 2021 (26.3.2021), so it has been 3 YEARS since I opened my account! That also means that I have not had ANY free days in over 3 years! 😵🤣 You all keep me busy day after day! 🥰🤭 Some of you are asking how I can do it? I can answer that most of the time very well! 💕 Of course I am tired sometimes, but also, I like a lot and enjoy running my accounts and never really get bored because every day is different and so many things to do! 😀 That was my week in the countryside! 😃 How was your week? Please remember that I am here for you and happy to chat with you every time I am online! 🥰💕 Thanks for being with me on this journey and thank you for your support and messages! 💋💋🤗💖
