A Day in my Life
My friends from some of the farms not far down south of mine suggested that I participate in the trend of explaining a day in my life. They were so awfully annoying and continuously persisted me into following the current trends. So, here we are.
When I wake up, first thing in the morning, I begin to water my plants in the field and feed the few livestock that I still indeed have. We did have an abundance of livestock, however those wretched people stole most of our beloved livestock. Curse those ignorant fools! That’s only one of the few troublesome things that come with residing in the middle colonies. After tending to my plants and livestock, the packages of flour are then transported to be shipped to England.
Then, usually my wife will send my children off to school to be educated, however sometimes I must do it if she is unable to. I then later, I sell my crops to earn shillings for the family. However, I spend most of the day in the fields to ensure that the crops grow nicely and are in good condition. Since my land has some of the richest and most fertile soil in all of the colonies, we produce some of the best potatoes, pumpkins, peas, and overall crops. The southern colonies, their tobacco, and their low quality crops cannot even compare to our fresh, high-quality produce. Our family also occasionally attends church on Sundays. I also sometimes participate in horse-racing and shooting contests. I’m excellent in the horse-racing contests and win first place almost every time. However, I struggle in the shooting contests, my aim and coordination is not the strongest. These activities are still enjoyable and they’re also a good way to meet my friends. My wife also likes to occasionally attend weaving contests, and she always brings back the most interestingly woven pieces she’s created during her time there. Everyday is a new day, however, and this only describes a typical day of my life.
