Ladies of Hive Community Contest #190 - Coping with changes of Life
The @LadiesofHive Community Contest # 190 for this week questions are:
1️⃣ Changes are inevitable but sometimes we find it difficult to adapt to them. Was there a circumstance or a sudden change that impacted your life, routine, or lifestyle? How did you deal with it? Did you have a hard time? Please share the story.

2️⃣ Some women cut their own hair not mainly to save money but because they find fun in doing it. Have you ever done it yourself? How did it turn out? Would you do it again?
The first question is very apt for me because I am going through a similar situation right now.
Since the beginning of May my whole life routine has toppled upside down. I am not doing anything regular that I normally do in my day routines. The first half of the month of May I went for the EBC trek and that was a very big change for me. It was not a normal holiday that I would take. It was a difficult trek and everyday there were new challenges to face. Once the trek was completed and I got back home, immediately I had to start working on my new home work.
I had to set up my full home in a month's time, and the place is big. I did not anticipate that it would get difficult because everything was going on track, but the last activity of painting got messed up and then there was fire fighting for me. Since mid may till now all I have been doing is put all my time and energy on the house work. There is nothing else that I have done in this time. And the whole activity leaves me so tired everyday by end of the day that I have no energy to do anything else.
I have not been able to do my yoga, meditation at all. My meals and routines have gone haywire, there are days when I have only one meal a day at the end of the day. It's like as if I am totally cut off from the external world. For 2 weeks, I did not even step out of the home which is very unusual for me. My wake up and sleep time is all disturbed, and I have no complaints. At the end of the day I am happy that my dream home is happening exactly the way I desired.
Finally on Monday we did the house warming with prayer ceremonies and my whole family coming down. It was a very fulfilling day for me and I was feeling so happy and even proud of myself. Every single moment that I spent doing any activity on the home felt all worth it. It was a very hard time, on some days I was feeling lost and did not know what I should do, but during such times, I would try to stay as calm as possible and take a few moments out to relax and breathe, and then again get back to work.
The last one month has just flown out for me like as if few days have passed living a totally upside down life. All this mess happened because of the painting activity going haywire and with that lot of our plans as well. It was an extremely tough month, on some days I was feeling crazy of myself, because I could myself not understand what I was doing. Anyways all is well that ends well. It's not yet over completely but now I am in a better place then the last few day.
For the second question, cutting my own hair. I have never done that and I do not think I will ever do it. I am very particular with my hair and I know I do not possess the hair cutting skills so I will not even want to take a chance. Though these days I see a lot of self hair cutting tricks on Insta reels and they look fun, they also come out very well, but you know the difference between the reel and real :-). For sure I will not try it on myself :-)
Thank you for visiting my blog. 👼🏻👼🏻💖💖🌹🌺🌸
Your story about managing the EBC trek and setting up your new home is inspiring. It’s amazing how you stayed positive and focused despite the challenges.
Thank you. If you practice it regularly it just becomes a habit then
You're welcome
Sending Love and Ecency Vote!
Thank you
You had hectic days and I imagined how tough it is (also in the same situation as we are preparing the other place so we could spend time there, I took the week off to rest hehe).
It's good though that you already had the housewarming and maybe you can breathe a bit better and not miss your meals :)
By the way, congratulations on your new home ❤️
How I wish for a week's rest. It will take some time for that, but yes it is better then before and not that hectic. Now I also have guests coming over so I need to manage that part as well 😅
I had to because it was my schedule on LoH. Also, I can't function when I'm so tired so it's better for me to take a break than create a mess, hehe.
Glad to hear your days are not as hectic as before :) All the best and enjoy your time with your guests ❤️
You've really been through a lot with setting up your new home dearest. It's inspiring how you stayed focused despite the challenges you faced doing it. Hope things settle down soon for you dear !PIZZA
It's a hectic activity but very fulfilling so I really do not have any complaints about it
Have a lovely week dear and would be waiting for your next awesome blogs 💯💯 !LUV

Congratulations on your new home, even if the routine gets out of control in the middle of a big change, little by little everything is back to its place, I hope you can have your meditations and yoga soon, I'm sure they will help you a lot.
Yes, it is getting back to place and things are getting better
Aww
I’m glad you did your housewarming ceremony on Monday
Congratulations to you and I hope you enjoy every bit of the house
And I will soon share the pictures 🤗

Having our routine disrupted and not being able to get back to it is always hard, but when it's for a worthy endeavour, I really don't mind. I think it actually can be a good thing, as it gives the person an opportunity to re-evaluate their routine and perhaps, make it better. Hopefully everything soon falls back into place for you :)
True, when its something that you are building up in life even though hectic and tough it brings joy to you
