Hello family,
How was your day? Mine was hectic but I thank God I survived it. May God be praised.
It's another weekend to report our day to day activities on dreemport challenge, how did you fare? Don't forget the secret word @dreemsteem talked about. Did you notice it? Well, it's no longer a secret, the word is "failed". She doesn't want to hear "I failed". So show what you've got. Here is mine.
I almost failed, oops, 😂😂😂 I mean, I almost forgot to drop my post today on how I did on the challenge. I came back late and tired from work, however, let me try.
MY 40OZ OF WATER
I drank so much water this week. It's getting hotter by the day and there is need never to cut low on water. It has no calories, it has no effect of too much drinking, so I drank.
MEDITATION/PRAYERS.
I did this more this week. I had reasons to drop whatever I was doing and meditate for at least 10 minutes and pray. God has been good to me. Contemplating on the ways he delivers us, we can't thank him enough. A parent dropped her child in my class, as she was driving home, near the school gate, she parked her car, crossed to the other side of the road just to buy an item she needed at home. As she was there shopping, a careless driver hit her down, breaking the bones of one of her legs. The news came to the school, we all ran down there. It was really bad. Next day we called to check on her and found that her leg was already amputated. What more reason do we have to meditate and thank God for his goodness? What if the car had hit a child coming to school? It could have been anyone. So every day this week, that incident moved me to meditate and free my mind of everything, believing that man is mere mortals, this life, we need to take things easy because only God can save our lives.
20 MINUTES GOAL
I made a mental note that each day, I will take a 20 minutes nap. I can't remember the last time I took a nap in the afternoon. It is very refreshing, even if 20minutes of sleep is too little, but God has blessed me with sleep that the moment my body touches the bed, I find sleep easily. So 20minutes nap. One Doctor, Dr Sara Mednick once said
"You can get incredible benefits from 15 to 20 minutes of napping," "You reset the system and get a burst of alertness and increased motor performance. That's what most people really need to stave off sleepiness and get an energy boost."
I surely do agree with her.
PERSONAL GOAL
I set a personal goal to take a few hours off the internet daily and spend time with my kid who is writing JSS3 Mock exams. I spent time reading with her, explaining difficult topics to her and revising with her. I set an alarm for her to wake up by 4AM and together we prepared for her exams which ends on Wednesday next week. I also made a goal of calling up friends I haven't heard from in weeks. I called to check up on them and found one had lost his mother.
PHYSICAL ACTIVITY
This was served in good measure. Like I told @dreemsteem in one of her posts, I am dancing to a video that promised to give me figure 8. Hahahahaha. I haven't got the figure 8, so I will keep dancing in anticipation. Hahaha. I have kept my physical activity in top notch, even today I invigilated SS3 Mock exams, moving around to thoroughly supervise them. Getting back home, picking kids from school and walking around to make dinner, all form physical activities for me.
ENCOURAGEMENT
I was there to encourage some users and some too came to encourage me. Offhive, I encouraged my friend who lost his mother. He is the only child and his mother was all he's got. So I encouraged him at a time of depression. @kenechukwu was there to encourage and virtually follow me to the hospital when one of my kids came back from School yesterday with a serious pain in the neck. She could hardly turn her neck. All the while we drove to the hospital, got some medications and came back home @kenechukwu was there, telling me my baby will be alright. Thank you @kenechuchukwu, you were a help at the right. I was confused but you assured me. God bless you. @nkemakonam89 and some others were there to cheer me on with my recipes about my local delicacy made in hive learners community.
Thank you @dreemport, this week has been another huge success. We give God the glory.
My scorecard? That's it above. See it again. I scored everything 💃💃. How about yours?
Thank you guys for the visit. Hoping to see how you did on this week's challenge. Thanks for coming around.

It breaks my heart to hear about her... but praise God for his kindness with that baby!!! I'm so glad that @kenechukwu and @nkemakonam89 were there this week to lift your spirits and encourage you.
They are cousins right? hehehe It must run in their family to speak a good word to others 😍
You did FABULOUS this week - and i LOVE your 20 minute goal to take a nap. oh my goodness - I'm going to suggest this to others this week!!! this is so important to make sure that our bodies are refreshed and we are caring for them!!!
You did WONDERFULLY Adore!!! I'm so happy to see you joining in with this challenge! hehehehe
Thank you so much Dreem. The challenge is so easy and tempting to refuse. I am just loving it, even if the six weeks end, I might still continue mine until you redirect us. Yes, it's a pity that woman found herself in that situation. Her son is in my class taking exams now. I pray God looks after his mother for him, his Dad moved abroad recently.
I never knew @nkemakonam89 and @kenechukwu97 are cousins, that's nice. I had my brothers on board some years ago but they stopped blogging already. Thanks for checking on me Dreem. It's my pleasure to join this challenge
Yes we are 🤩, now you know... hehehe
welldone on your progress... kudos xD
Thanks
WOW big kudos to you, you absolutely nailed the week!
I am so impressed :)
I am popping in today as part of my dreemsteem challenge Encouragement program for Monday, have you encouraged your partner yet :) Well done on all you are doing and don't forget to do your personal goals today, cheers Ed :)
Yes, I have encouraged not just my partner but more. I haven't encouraged you yet, am sorry but I know you are a great encourager and must need some from us, haha. Thanks for the visit. God bless you
Oh don't you worry about me :) I can encourage myself 🤣🤣🤣
I became so emotional reading about that parent that lost one of her legs after dropping her child in school. Too bad such had to happen to her but we really can't question God. We just have to keep thanking him for his faithfulness. I glad you aced it all despite the tiredness after work.
And yes, a nap everyday afternoon goes a log way in a person both mentally and physically. I'm glad you took it as a goal.
All the best this week and don't forget to ace through this week just as you did last week
@dreemport
Thank you so much, I will try to do my best
I trust you will come out victorious this week. All the best
So sorry about the incidence that happened to the parent who got her leg amputated. There are many reasons to meditate and appreciate God for life. I laughed when you said you are dancing to have figure 8 😂😂😂 Leave the figure for we singles na. Lol
I am glad you took time to rest and I wish your daughter success in her exam.
I hope you drank a lot of water today and did your tasks? Let's see how the week goes and I hope all will go smoothly and fine. I came through @dreemport

Yes, it seems everyone did well this week. Thanks for the compliments
Congrats on the Gold Stars!!! You took the challenge head on and defeated it!!! Now you could come and help us beat up a monster with our dragons hahahahahahaha!!!
Only one correction suggestion:
"and found one had list his mother." You meant "lost" his mother, correct
@adoore-eu?
This post was obtained through Dreemport.
Wow!!! You smashed it. Fantastic going. I am inspired...especially by the afternoon naps !LOLZ
That is really sad that that poor woman lost her leg. It really makes one think how life can change in an instant and to feel blessed each day that we get to live in a state of wellbeing. We should never take it for granted.
I love your selfless goal to be there to support your child. All the best to both of you for the upcoming exams.
I have started this week with a star... it was a juggling act yesterday and I burned the candle at both ends (which I need to stop lol) but pleased I got it and lets go with day 2 week 5. How are you going this week? Still smashing it or needing some gentle support?
