Yesterday on roads, tired and exhausted..

Tweet

Good afternoon from this side of the planet I am back from the tailor and given two of my blouses to be stitched. That's one errand off the list. I couldn't be here yesterday as we travelled to Chennai that is around 350 km from here. So it was a total of little more than 700 kms travelled both ways and that left us too tired. Well, I didn't drive. Husband did it. But sitting in car for so long is good enough to tire you. It was a function at one of the close friend's place in Chennai. He is a college friend of my husband and they have been through thick and thin together. It was the thread ceremony ( a religious ceremony in Hindu) of his younger son. I, husband and my younger daughter went to the function. My elder one had a exam yesterday and so we left her. She spent the whole day at school writing her exam till 4 in the afternoon. I had made and packed her lunch before leaving at 3 in the morning. We started at 3AM to reach there at 10 in the morning. We visited the city after 5 years and felt that the city was more crowded and traffic has increased in the last five years.We were at the function till 4. It was a small gathering and a delicious elaborate South Indian meal. It was good to meet few more friends from our circle. We started our journey back to Bengaluru at 4 and reached home around 11:15. And then a quick shower and we crashed to the bed. We all had a off day today and so no morning rush. I slept till 8. It was a lazy morning with just toast and tea for breakfast. I just got an hour of zoom meeting with the two kindergarten teachers, some mylotting and cooking a simple lunch of khichdi ( one pot meal of rice, lentils and veggies cooked together). We needed light meals today after all the feasting yesterday. I wanted to have a long nap after lunch but then sleep evaded.. So I went out to tailor and finished one errand on the list. I will finish some tomorrow after work time when I go to pick up my younger daughter. That's the update from my side. Hope all is well at your mylot corner Leaving you with this image of beautiful Gandhari flower from my garden. This one cheered my mood in the morning. It's the first bloom after a wait of eight months and it's just gorgeous
