    Dear Mindi,
    How sad it is! This is the advantage of living in our motherland. You can outsource anything and everything and lead a relaxed life. But perfectionists will always hesitate to outsource.
    Love,

    Dear Pushpa Ma'am
    Very nice article! The outsoucing you mention happens only in India ma'am.
    I don't know about other ladies, but in my home it is total "in-sourcing" only. I cook, clean, wash, iron, eat out less... oh the list is exhaustive.
    But I enjoy it, so I am not complaining! Doing everything gives me a satisfaction of living my life full!

    Pushpa Mami dear what you have written is 100% right. People think when we are getting everything easily why take the trouble. But they dont understand that making it ourselves gives that personal touch and our family is happy having them. I am not an expert but like to make it myself and my dh also believes in doing it at home.

    Nicely described Pusphavalli ma...the outsourcing sources..

    I want to add one outsourcing, which came to my mind, while reading your post.
    Parents in the old age homes..isn't this, another sad outsourcing. :-(

    Two things which cannot be outsourced at any cost, is the intake of our food and our sleep...:biglaugh:

    Dear Kamala,
    Yes, you are right. Only people in India got this advantage of outsourcing. Perhaps if you were in India at least you would like to outsource a few tasks like ironing, sweeping, swabbing etc.
    I prefer to do all work myself. This helps to keep our body fit.
    Love,

    Dear puppala,
    Sometimes when we think of it, reality appears to be funny. As long as people can afford money for outsourcing, this trend will continue.
    Thanks for dropping in and posting your comments,
    Love,

    Dear Viji,
    People have become very lazy and they do not want to do domestic cores. In stead they will work out in a gym to burn calories.
    Whenever my dil comes from US to spend a few days with us, she would tell me to order catering. She would say that I would be always in the kitchen only and won't get time to spend time with them. As you have said we feel happy and satisfied when we cook dishes which they like.
    Love,
    PS

    Dear Sriniketan,
    Old age homes had become necessary evil and had become convenient to dump the parents.

    Two things which cannot be outsourced at any cost, is the intake of our food and our sleep.[​IMG]..:

    Ha ha ha! Ailments also can't be outsourced even if someone is willing to take it for a price. :-(

    Love,

    Pusphavalli ma'am, sending parents to the old age homes, can come under any category, including the necessary evil category or in an outsourcing category...(making other people take care of their parents, when they can afford).

    Haha..very true..ailments also joins the list of the things which cannot be outsourced..:)
