and then there is saturday …this is the week (end)

The weekend is here -  we all look forward to it , dont we….I do, too ! But by the end of the weekend, there is a feeling of being cheated by it…not getting enough of it. On sunday eve, all of us r irritable …one didn’t get to go out much, one didn’t get to rest…n’ so on….

So, I though this weekend ( before it commences…) let me chalk out what I want out of it.

I want to watch a (good) movie !

take lil one to someplace nice – circus / park / amusement park

do something nice / new – maybe play tennis (weather permitting)…

place a few important phone calls….

and spend lots of timing lazing around with my little one….treat her with a bubble bath

hope i haven’t listed too many things in my itinerary. goodluck to me………….!!!

Have a good weekend !

not so bad afterall

 

well, not so bad afterall….the day staggered…but got decent as it progressed. The weather is good…we had a nice shower … everything is clean and earthy.  My daughter got home a mother’s day flower and other stuff she made for me at school. that helped to brighten it even more.

now i should get back to my article….or i’ll be cursing myself tomorrow !

not a good start

I hate to wake up with a cluttered mind ! I dont know how I am feeling, how to start my day… the best thing to do is to cook…and tidy up. clean and tidy surroundings help me lighten up. My article hs been pending for sometime….maybe it is the burden of that unfinished project that is making me so irritable.

The month of May has started – almost half the year has gone by. This would be a good time to review my resolutions and take a reality check.

adios.

In search of a good book

My new year resolution ( to read a book every month) took off really well this year – thankz khalid huessini’s Kite runner. Since then, I haven’t been able to find a book which would make me look beyond that one….I tried to read a couple of classics…but just like the way classics are – they tend to take you another time which is stimulating but can also get boring. The Victorian age was such a dull period esp. for women. So pretentious and lacking in substance…accessorizing people esp. women as if they were for a show. Emotions, feelings were not talked about, it was all about appearances. Well, it still is …but at least now we make an effort to look beyond it.
Anyway, I read…Agnes Grey by Anne Bronte , the lesser know of the Bronte sisters. While the narration is good and story lacks pace…one does not expect the life of a governess to be very exciting but at the same time, the lack of any kind of happenings in her personal life irked me. It is gloomy which might not be an undesirable trait in a book but the pace and issues covered in the book never changes…the author keeps talking about her students …and how she tried (unsuccessfully) to reform them. Anyhow, I pride myself on the fact that I read a classic and managed to improve my knowledge of the Victorian age….which in turn made me appreciate the kind of freedom we; women enjoy in this age !!

burden of wisdom

I really do need some chicken soup for my soul, today. How do you cope with caustic comments, constant comparisons and constant source of negativity around you? It just takes one person to ruin your day….herein, the problem lies with me not him. If i am firm, confident and rooted in my beliefs …then, no amount of deception can shake me. but still, it does spoil my mood and changes my track of thoughts….for the enitre day

Is there any way to keep yourself walled from unwanted thoughts … thoughts are inward process so , it might be in our hands to control them. it is rarely possible to take charge of external situtaions esp. when it includes other human beings …irrational ones.

the burden of wisdom is so heavy on my shoulders…I am the wise one….i should be the one to understand…to be patient, i should look for amicable solutions…it is so much easier to be crazy , insane….people dont like you – but they cant tell it to u on your face. They might create a scene and you might be branded – In sensitive …as for them …tsk, tsk – they are not in their real minds !!!!!  the burden of wisdom is alomst too much to bear !
