    Dear all,

    @sonali,that is one super schedule.
    @kkrish mam, really hope that your mom is back to her fine health and so are you.
    Our pongal went so quietly.My days are being active enough so that I am making 10,000 steps. Finally after years of trying, I made my husband and one son to eat dosai. That means, my weekly menu was going to be bit easier. Still the young one doesn't want to eat.
    Have a nice day all

    Hi, Phew end of another week..

    Testing different time management routines. This sunday i prepped up for the coming week by Preparing idli/dosa batter, mixed for methi chappathi ...though sounds simpler in writing...had to do 1/2 an hour of thinking on the right time to open the fridge, separated the leaves while watching 'mentalist' on tv, rinse and wait for an hour and then mixed for chappathi....

    Wrote an article about my childhood, though still wondering why none liked......i am happy atleast i gave a form to my almost forgotten childhood incident...anyway if you are curious or if you have some time at hand ..below is the link....
    Maname-relax Please

    End of the each day last week went about collecting all strewn toys, books, clothes, into respective places.. I dread that 'hurricane affected' gloomy living room that welcomes me in the morning.

    These days the living room is much better inhabitable with all the remotes in a sofa pocket, with everything in their respective places...

    I have been walking atleast for an hour for 3 days. Despite the climate being cold, which earlier would have been music to my ears, but now with the strong determination to stick to my goals, i walked around the park, watching the frozen lakes with duck footprints resembling a kolam hearing jagjit singhs ghazals on my phone.

    Thank you all...you have indeed made a difference...

    I read your article @swathi27 . Nice to read.
    Also your day looks good.
    ******************
    Yesterday I managed about 8,000 steps.
    Was watching the news on the women's march and wished I was close to one of the big cities to be able to join and return home within the day.
    In the am spent about one hour on my next article for the space series.
    Today I have to prepare notes for my students.
    Have to teach them a small song - so have to prepare the notes.
    I definitely need to prepare better for Monday as I have an 8am meeting and need to leave much earlier to get stuff ready.
    Went for my weekly grocery shopping.
    Need to get back to my article.
    Take care.

    Dear Alll,

    My weekend was eventful as usual. But we did manage to go for family walk.
    yesterday I made 10,000 steps and I was happy about it. I am also trying to include core exercise as @kkrish mam suggested.
    After a long time , I feel that cooking and cleaning are under control. However, I still need to do some de cluttering.

    Have a nice weekend everyone
    Vani
