Assalamu Alaikum, I am writing for my beloved platform Steemit after a long time. My regular work after waking up in the morning is cleaning the cowshed and feeding the cows. I finished my initial work and fed the cows with grain. Today I have some work to do, the next day I have to make arrangements for my relatives who were invited to my house.

I bought an old bike from our house. It is very necessary to change its engine oil. It has not been changed for a long time. This bike is not used especially. I found the equipment to change the engine oil and tried to open the nut by standing the bike but it is very jammed and slipping again and again. I left it without trying much and will take it to the garage after some time.

The sky is cloudy and the wind has started. In a while, light rain has started. I am sitting on the balcony waiting and watching the rain. The sound of the rain falling on the tin roof made the rain quite enjoyable.

The rain stopped in a short time. I first have to go to the market with my father to get his Punjabi tailored by a tailor and at the same time to the salon to trim his beard. I first went to a salon with my father and while he was getting his hair and beard trimmed, I waited at a nearby tea shop. Finally, we returned home after getting our Punjabi tailored.

Currently, there is an oil crisis after the closure of the Strait of Hormuz in the Iran-Israel war, for which the Bangladesh government is providing fuel carts. I went to the Upazila Executive Officer's office with our home bike and my driving license. But even after waiting for a long time, I could not submit my papers because they are not accepting any papers today.

I came back from there and I will cut my hair myself today. I went to the salon and waited for some time, then after one of them I cut my hair and beard short.

I came home and saw that the decoration work had started at home. The next day, Anusthan is making a pandal to feed our house so that 120 people can eat at once. I am observing their activities. Today they will only make this pandal, the next day they will provide tables and chairs.

In the afternoon, the women and girls from our neighboring house started cutting betel nuts for the ceremony. These are all betel nuts from our tree. I gave them some more betel nuts from the tree. I finished some work at home till evening.

In the evening I went to the market to do some shopping. My main shopping was fruits. I brought some fruits and dessert items for the guests who would be coming the next day. I went to the fruit shop with my cousin and bought some apples, oranges, guava, grapes, date biscuits, chana and other things. After I finished buying my fruits, I went to an aluminum shop and bought a tin trunk from there which they were selling by the kilo. I bought the smallest size trunk weighing 4 kilos. I finished all my shopping.

I went to a confectionery shop with my cousin and for something light to eat, she wanted to eat yogurt. I had a juice. I bought ice cream and a soft drink for home. I paid the bill and left for home. There were a lot of clouds in the sky, so I quickly returned home.

The next day, about 400 people will be invited to our house. We will slaughter a cow in our house. The butcher will come at night. He was supposed to come at 9 pm, but he could not come due to rain. We slaughtered the cow at 11 pm. It took us almost 2 am to slaughter the cow, skin it and prepare the meat. In the meantime, we faced various problems including load shedding. I finished work and went to sleep. I had a very busy day that day.
