Time management - cooking, cleaning, and exercise

Sound, thats the way to go girl! Time will heal

 

Hey all,

@akila,
enakku unga reply paathale tired agiduthu ...:bowdown( I get tired by just seeing your replies ).Aanalum neenga too much ah daan vela paakureenga..:thumbsup (You do too much of work).
My weekend was opposite to yours. Dint do any work. Went for IPL match(RCB vs KKR), cheered waved and got tired :hide:.

Then took parents to ISKCON temple next day.Had nice jalebi's, coconut holige and malpua .

@manju mam and shara,
wow, so many items , makes my tongue drip

Shara ,your lil ones seem to have grown up so fast ...they are already in school travelling by their own.So nice.

Manju mam,
It always gives a feel good factor to read your posts. So many people visiting, so many dishes being prepared with lots of love .
When I go to my mom's place I dont even pick a spoon and drop into the sink. I just enjoy the pampering.But when I come back home, I dont even sit for a minute.So am sure your son would know everything and do it when he is supposed to do !

@krish mam,
How was your lawn mowing session?
When I was eating chennai grand sweets lemon pickle yesterday I was remembering you/your post and giggling inside.

@shalu
Keep going shalu,,,just few more days and it will become easier to stick to the time/become a habit

@akila and shara
I completed the shiva trilogy series just last week.
Though I was not satisfied with the way he ended,reading them was a new experience as such. Could learn so much and could relate so much with the existing world/mythology.


This weekend,
Planning to segregate DS clothes and put the old ones in the loft with the age tag!
Taps are still waiting, so will clean them up
Also some vaccuming/window cleaning.

 

You are blessed Kamala. Early morning when my DH switched on the TV to catch up the IPL result we saw this news. We called my BIL who lives in Boston and enquired apt their safety. Due to Marathon his office was closed. Everybody safe there. What an inhuman act? What are they going to achieve killing innocent people? God knows.

Doors and Shara Thank you for your consoling words about my DS. Otherwise he is such a darling, grown up as such a wonderful human, intelligent, content, obedient, practical. .....

My hugs to your DDs. They just follow us. Our actions substitutes words.

Doors, I stay very nearby to mom's place, but never get chance to get pampered. The last time I stayed there for few months was when I delivered my DD(10 YRS.). After that I have not stayed there except one day due to some reason, which I don't remember now. Last week on Ugadhi my DD had holiday and I planned to go there for lunch after sending other two off , gave her the menu the previous day. But later I came to know my DH also had holiday, I dropped the idea since he wanted to stay at home doing office work and I didn't want to cook here just for him / leave him alone on his holiday.

Finally today, I folded three loads of clothes. I was not coming up due to heat in 1 St floor. Beyond today this cannot wait as another load is drying. Went out to finish some work. Few got done, few did not. Should do it tomorrow. Ordered two pairs of reading glasses, as it has become a must now. Evening made Dhokla.

Welcome Shaluu to this thread.

Way to go Sound. We are always here to give you the support.

Will catch up later, as I have to keep the clothes in kids wardrobe.

Regards
Manjukps

 

hi All,


Any link for me as a fresher or starter,
I feel I am wasting such good time at hands..

Mainly I am being very lazy :hide:

I wanted to join this thread few months ago.
Just started my weight loss journey but still I know I have enough time to do lot of work.
But just have become couch potato and stuck on internet.:bonk

 

Welcome Gayathri,

You can start from here, where important links are provided. Thinking of a start itself is a positive note. All the best

Regards
Manjukps

 

Hi,

My yesterday's update:

Reached home in the evening and preared dinner for myself, DD and PIL. Served food and hed my dinner. Washed the vessels and cleaned the sink and gas stove. Swept the floor and peeled veggies for today's cooking. My DD is not feeling well so gave her calpal and put her to sleep. Went to bed by 10.00.

One good thing after FIL's retrun from USA is that we all are going to bed by 10.00 so am able to sleep for 7 hours

manjukps & Kamala mam: Thanks for your word

Regards,

Sound

Sorry ladies , I completely forgot to introduce myself..I am gayathri and I have a 14 year old DS, I do part time work and living in Australia. I love to cook and clean and read books and surf Internet.

It's autumn here and my son is having 2weeks break ,I can't do much cleaning. In a month it will be winter and can't even dream about cleaning. This is the only part I hate here. But unlike US we don't have terrible winters.

Will try to be activate in this thread hereafter..as I don't effectively post anything in any section.:hide:
