Good evening from this side of the planet.. It's 10 PM here and my long weekend comes to an end. I have to go to work tomorrow morning and I should be hitting my pillow in some time. It was a long weekend but it didn't feel like one. We had a holiday on Friday too on the account of Varmahalaxmi. Varmahalaxmi is a big festival in the state of Karnataka where they perform Laxmi Pooja ( worshipping Goddess of Prosperity). The rituals are different from that of Diwali, where the whole country ( Hindu community) performs Laxmi Pooja. A lot of pending chores were there and I had to take care of at least few of them. Made some visits to doctors for my regular diabetic check up and other tests. That would be another post as few things are going good and few need some intervention. But all good and nothing worrisome Gardening was a big chore other than the health checkups. I wish I could share the bountiful produce of tomatoes, brinjal and ladies finger from my garden. But the picture would not upload. In all this, I could not relax much or be online much as I would like to on any weekend. But anyways there is always another weekend. Hope everyone is having or had a good weekend Enjoy your time. Stay healthy and happy

I was quite busy since June with extra responsibilities at work. My garden got a bit neglected. I couldn't plant more veggies. Anyways, I got some good produce.. I hope that your garden does well next year . People put lovely decorations ( rangoli and flower hangings) on this day. I hope that you have a good week ahead

Hmm... I am happy with the tomato produce. I was pretty busy with work since June and my garden got a bit ignored. I didn't plant much veggies.

Tomatoes - well put that inside a safe !! And shh... don't tell your neighbours!! I too would have loved to see that picture! It was a somewhat busy day today although not heavily busy one. I did get to spend good time online but managed much less than planned and well, another Monday starts tomorrow!! Anyways, a new week awaits with new energy. Hopefully you just have to do minor adjustments with regards to your Diabetes and health care. It's almost time to sleep in some time. Have a nice sleep and a happy new week.

@arunima25 Take a good care of yourself. Yet the Tomatoes problem has shown how the Climate change can disrupt the Food Cycles. So well, in the longer term, one needs to tackle Climate change.

The price has come down here at 40. But I had been getting few tomatoes every week even during the peak price time. So, I managed without buying them Monday is going good so far. It was short working day today. I am doing good with diabetes management. It's some gyanec problem that needs some intervention. Maybe a surgical one after few months. It's wait and watch situation at present. Will try to make a post about that later Have a good week

@arunima25 That’s true, we never know what will happen next.

Yes, it went good. Something needs intervention. I plan to make a post about it later. I hope that I can rest next weekend. I don't see anything to stop me so far, but then you never know.

Yes, it's not resolved. Many are waiting for it to be resolved soon. Some discussions depend so much on images. They are incomplete without them. I too have to wash some bed covers today. It's bright sunny here and it will dry in no time.

It's such a shame about the photos. I've had a bit of a break but I'm back now.

I will do my best to stay healthy and happy today since I have two appointments with my mental health doctors on the next two days at home via the telephone and via internet provided by a nurse,

Days off there's always a ton of things to do!! And many more!! No kicking your heels up in the breeze. Until you skip town for a couple of days.
