Week 32: 4th July Monday to 10th August Sunday
Toooooo busy this week ತುರಸ್ಕೊಳ್ಳೋಕೂ ಪುರ್ಸೊತ್ತ್ ಇರ್ಲಿಲ್ಲ kind of busy.
Yes, got my phone like 15 days back, but I had no time to turn it on! I did. Thanks to smart switch option, all the setting got transferred as it is to the new phone. Only thing I spent time was towards personalizing the home screen. I see that lot of people put up thier photos or their family’s on the screen. I dont like that personally. I found out a beautiful dark green forest theme and applied it. The reason why I bought new phone was the camera. This is way better than the old one. More we spend, better the features, now I crave for premium ones! Sujay kept the old one. It has an excellent signal reception capacity; serving his purpose.
Setting up my Insta account took away my whole week. I had only one account, personal. I created two more, one of our NGO ‘Phasalu’, another of our company, ‘Haridrekha’. I wanted the newer ones to connect with facebook too. It took a lot of time to understand and set up. It was exhaustive. Eyes red and irritated from lack of sleep already and looking at my phone screen made it even worse. But its all set, and good to go.
We went to a quick shopping this week. To get groceries, specially a ‘rakhi’ for my sitar. Its a tradition that we tie Rakhi to our sitar during Raksha Bandhan. There is no particular reason, But have been told to do so by my sitar teacher. I also packed ‘Bagina’ items for my amma, to offer during Gowri Pooje in Ganesha Chaturthi. I will write about it then.
It is the auspicious ‘Shraavana Maasa’. Many relatives asked to come over for ‘Varamahalakshmi Pooja’. But I was up with something more important. Celebrating ‘Horticulture Day’ on August 8th at school. I has asked Aditi, a friend from ‘Nature Classroom’ to carry out activities around pollinators around us. It was a productive day. Students enjoyed the session. I am yet to write a blog about theme, and how it went.
I was writing Insta posts for Phasalu this week. What is Phasalu, what we do here, story behind our logo. I have lots and lots of posts yet to upload. I am lagging behind.
Me and Sujay have a tradition that we have been following since our marriage, from December 2022. Writing down our expenses and income, every day, totalling them at the end of the month to see how we spend and earn. Excel sheets didnt work out for us. It is so boring. So we planned to look for an application to track money. I found an app called ‘Money manager’, it is free simple and colorful, we are liking it.
I stopped working out at Cultfit. I felt that the “mom phase” is not the right time for such activities. I hardly find time, and spending it on intense workouts was making me more physically tired. Daily chores like washing utensils, cleaning the kitchen, sweeping, and, moreover, swinging Dhruva’s cradle have already made every knuckle joint ache — and the workouts were only making it worse. So, I stopped.
Its already half way through the month. I am yet to find out what to write for my column at Shramajeevi. This is the only magazine that I am writing consistently, every month, from last two years, almost 24 issues, even before and after Dhruvas birth. I do not want break this. But this time I am literally feeling I am not going to make it. What to write😩!!!
