Even DD is down with cough and cold. Once I go home justfeeling like sleeping with DD. Just wakes up to make some dosa and sleep again.COLD COLD GO away don’t make me more lazy.
And about the Valetine s day gift, the cup I brought for myDH was broken L

 

Dear Kamala Ma'am,Congratulations on your new assignment.Hope your son get well soon.

Hello Smile ,Anupama,Vani and every one

Anupama,I have seen kids staying with grandparents at home ,while both parents work , during the summer vacation ,here it is for 3 months.Others send kids who regularly go to the afterschool or before school go to the private school/day care during the school holidays for the whole day.There is age limit to the kids they accept ,usually around 11 years.

I pray God to get me back on schedule and stay with me in these overwhelming days

 

Hello Everyone - Hope everyone is doing better. Didn't get a chance to read all the posts.
My parents are here so I am enjoying time with them.

That is the reason I didn't come online to post the things I have done.
Because I didn't do anything till now.

From today I am planning on completing my projects that I have been postponing from so long because of the lack of time.

Will update you all from tomorrow.

Take care,
Priya

 

Hai everyone,

I was busy cleaning my house and clearing all the clutters around. Still cleaning the house and also taking care of my household chores.

Got up at 6.30 AM today and prepared breakfast and lunch. Woke my DD up and made her get ready for school. Made her drink her health drink and dropped her at her school bus pick up point. washed the vessels and since I am the only person here have to take care of watering plants and taking care of the household chores. This is a big challenge for me and hope i give my best

Dear all,

Yesterday updates,

Dosa,chutney,Rice and dal-most prep work done by DH,dosa and rice by me.

Sunny evening,I decided to go to park ,but DH wanted kids play in the backyard so we could save some time and there was warm sun.

We played some time,later I started spraying the weed spray,too much weed overgrowth,kids wanted to spray ,just gave them a chance and told it was of chemicals so they need to stay away.Later I spread the plant food ,miracle gro,the kids wanted to water ,I let them.Meanwhile I asked DH to help me carry the cow manure and we spread it over the grass..He just wanted to walk to get sunshine and some Vit D from Sun God.Lots of plants died ,have to remove them in the coming weeks.I now appreciate the hard work of farmer.

Felt sorry for DH as he needed to go to work even when he is weak due to cold and ear infection,ENT surgeon put him on steroids and antibiotics.

Later Homework time for both the kids.Iam trying to get it finished atleast a day before ,not to wait until the last day.As usual it took so long and I focused on the hand writing ,told them to do slowly ,not to rush and they have to follow this until they reach 3rd grade.

Teaching spellings is the hardest part.Some letters sound silent.Don't know how to teach them.Some sound the same c,K.shakehead

I learnt from them that Mr.Abraham Lincoln's pic is on pennies and Mr.George Washington's pic is on quarters and Dollars.They both were wondering whether Mr.George washington's hair was wig!!!!I learnt about the state bird ,flowers from them.They asked me about flower and bird representing India.

Simple BF and Lunch pongal and pineapple slices .
Have to take my little one to Doctor's office.

We are in a dispute with a sales manger ,very bad experience,gals ,don't forget to read all the instructions.Not all the stores have a good refund or exchange policy.I thought every store is like the major chains ,nope,some have no refund policy.We made a big purchase and then came to know that the sale was final,once the money get in to their hands ,people behave very differently.Check the reviews throughly,I read the reviews after the purchase and every one adviced not to buy there.Any way now we have to adjust with the poor quality product and horrible ,lying customer service.

These days my sleep is very disturbed as Iam anxious about the next two to three days to do list.Waking up very unrefreshed .Same thing with DH,paying property tax and filing income taxes,we are missing all the dead lines.

Shall try to work on these.

Priya,have a nice time with your parents

Vani,I understand the winter blues,Nice to hear the weather is getting better in your place.

Sound and every one take care

Hello friends

Could not post since couple of days. Weekend was good, friday night had a send off for a family returning back to India. Saturday woke up late, had biscuits and coffee for Bf,made Nolkol sambar for lunch, evening went out and finished shopping. For the night prepared puri and chole. Sunday morning again woke up late and DH went to gym. Prepared cucumber sambar and tomato rasam and Ironed clothes for week, helped DD set her school bus, PE kit and swimming kit. Then helped her prepare her art home work and watched some serials.

Monday:

Woke up at 5.30 and prepared capsicum bath for lunch boxes and bread toast for BF. Woke up DD and gave her milk, and after her bath, combed her hair, this is the only thing for which she depends on me and her dad cant do it. Left at 7.20 and reached office at 8.20. Now feeling hungry, will go and have lunch.

How are u all doing?
