Settling Down

Now that my son goes to school in an auto, I find my days settling down. The evenings are a bit of a problem, I am usually quite tired by then. I still need to do something constructive then. Let us see, with a bit of training I might be able to do something. There are books waiting to be read, some writing to be done. I should get down to it.

On the bright side, the morning are freer as my son leaves at 7.45 max. I am able to do some uninterrupted surfing then. The maid comes early too. Look at the bright side girl.

All work and no play

Well it isnt as if I am working all the time. I play when I am at work and work when I am supposed to be playing. What really sucks about a full time job is the way you are TIED DOWN. I have to spend 81/2 hours in the office, add about half hour each for commuting and I am down to a neat 91/2 hours. 10 hours of prime day time gone in warming the seat. Absences make a dent in the casual leave, so have to be careful about that. So it is like sitting in a jail for the best part of the day and by the time you are out of office you have to cook, look to the child, pick up groceries, maybe a few other things and all you are good for is a stint in front of TV. No wonder India is hooked to Saas Bahu serials, that is the only thing you are capable of after a day of drudgery.

Yeaaaahhh!

Now my son is ensconced in his new school now. What's even better is that he has felt instantly comfortable there. That is a huge relief for me. Now once his routine is regularised I can breathe easy and start breathing down his neck for improved grades. he he he. That is the best part of being a parent.. to be able to whip your kids (figuratively) once in a while.

Now my tasks are, getting my lost license re-made and getting the papers of my Kinetic in order.

Elloo will I ever find time to settle back in my favorite chair and JUST READ?????
