Dear Diary,

Today I feel a little sad and I miss my children and grandchildren a lot. The pandemic has made it difficult to see them frequently and that makes me feel a little alone. Sometimes I wonder if I did the right thing by closing my restaurant when the pandemic hit in 2020. It was a place where I sold Creole breakfasts and lunches and I had built it with so much effort. But when the pandemic hit, the business collapsed and I had no choice but to close it. It hurts me to think about all the time and effort I invested in that place, it was more than 10 years invested there and everything was very painful to see how it collapsed out of nowhere.

Also, my brother-in-law, my husband's older brother, just passed away. The news has left us all very affected and sad. I know that my husband is especially affected, since they were very close and shared many moments together. I am worried about how he is going to cope with this situation, I will be there for him in everything he needs at this difficult time for us.

I have been wishing I could buy a new mixer so I can continue making my cakes that I love making so much.

On the other hand, I have been thinking about buying a new mixer to make my cakes. The one I currently have is several years old and has begun to fail. I love to bake and make desserts for my family and friends, as well as to sell, so a new mixer would be a great help. I have been researching different models and brands to find the best option. I hope to buy one soon and continue enjoying my passion for baking. Without a doubt, making cakes always brightens my day and makes me feel happy.

Despite all this, I try to stay positive and focused on the good things in life. I like to cook different recipes, watch movies and listen to music to distract myself and keep my mind busy. I also try to exercise, going for walks regularly, attending my weekly dance therapy classes and eating healthy to stay fit and healthy.

Although I miss my children and grandchildren, I feel grateful to have a loving and supportive family that is always there for me when I need them, at least the tides in my home are now a little calm and I can now rest easy while they are gone, I know that in an emergency they will be there for me. They have given me their unconditional support during these difficult times and that gives me a lot of strength and hope to move forward.

I am happy because on Sunday my son (@culebro) will go look for my niece in Colombia, since she has been sad, missing home and since she has always lived here with me, she misses us all just like we do at home. I have faith that everything will turn out well and I look forward to the day.

I know that life can be difficult sometimes, but I also know that there are many good things in the world. I feel grateful for everything I have and try to maintain a positive and optimistic attitude towards life. I hope that soon I can see my children and grandchildren again and that we can share happy moments together.

Thank you for being my confidants, dear LOH community. It always makes me feel better when I write down my thoughts and feelings.

See you soon,

(Español) Querido diario,

Hoy me siento un poco triste y extraño mucho a mis hijos y nietos. La pandemia ha hecho que sea difícil verlos con frecuencia y eso me hace sentir un poco sola. A veces me pregunto si hice lo correcto al cerrar mi restaurante cuando llegó la pandemia en 2020. Era un lugar donde vendía desayunos y almuerzos criollos y lo había construido con tanto esfuerzo. Pero cuando llegó la pandemia, el negocio se vino abajo y no tuve más opción que cerrarlo. Me duele pensar en todo el tiempo y esfuerzo que invertí en ese lugar, fueron más de 10 años invertidos ahí y todo fue muy doloroso al ver como se desplomó de la nada.

Además, acaba de fallecer mi cuñado, el hermano mayor de mi esposo. La noticia nos ha dejado a todos muy afectados y tristes. Sé que mi esposo está especialmente afectado, ya que eran muy cercanos y compartían muchos momentos juntos. Me preocupa cómo va a sobrellevar esta situación, estaré para él en todo lo que necesite en este momento tan duro para nosotros.

He estado deseando poder comprar una nueva batidora para poder seguir haciendo mis pasteles que tanto amo hacer.

Por otro lado, he estado pensando en comprar una nueva batidora para hacer mis pasteles. La que tengo actualmente ya tiene varios años y ha comenzado a fallar. Me encanta hornear y hacer postres para mi familia y amigos, al igual que para vender, así que una nueva batidora sería de gran ayuda. He estado investigando diferentes modelos y marcas para encontrar la mejor opción. Espero poder comprar una pronto y seguir disfrutando de mi pasión por la repostería. Sin duda, hacer pasteles siempre me alegra el día y me hace sentir feliz.

A pesar de todo esto, trato de mantenerme positiva y enfocada en las cosas buenas de la vida. Me gusta cocinar diferentes recetas, ver películas y escuchar música para distraerme y mantener mi mente ocupada. También trato de hacer ejercicio, saliendo a caminar con regularidad, asistiendo a mis clases semanales de bailoterapia y comer saludablemente para mantenerme en forma y saludable.

Aunque extraño a mis hijos y nietos, me siento agradecida por tener una familia amorosa y solidaria que siempre está ahí para mí cuando los necesito, por lo menos las mareas en mi hogar ya están un poco calmadas y ya puedo estar tranquila mientras no están, sé que en una emergencia ellos estarán ahí para mí. Me han brindado su apoyo incondicional durante estos tiempos difíciles y eso me da mucha fuerza y esperanza para seguir adelante.

Estoy alegre porque el domingo mi hijo (@culebro) irá a buscar a mi sobrina a Colombia, ya que ha estado triste añorando la casa y como siempre ha vivido aquí conmigo, ella nos extraña a todos al igual que nosotros en el hogar. Tengo fe de que todo saldrá bien y espero con ansias a que llegue el día.

Sé que la vida puede ser difícil a veces, pero también sé que hay muchas cosas buenas en el mundo. Me siento agradecida por todo lo que tengo y trato de mantener una actitud positiva y optimista ante la vida. Espero que pronto pueda volver a ver a mis hijos y nietos y que podamos compartir momentos felices juntos.

Gracias por ser mis confidentes, querida comunidad de LOH. Siempre me hace sentir mejor cuando escribo mis pensamientos y sentimientos.

Hasta pronto,

Lisbeth Araujo
