As I mentioned in my previous post, I was feeling a bit down, but now I’m much better. Watching a comedy show on YouTube---"Mind your language"(it's an old show but it's extremely funny)---was just the remedy I needed I guess. Laughter truly is the best medicine!
Afterward, I spent some quality time with my mom. I reheated the food in the microwave whereas mom made chapatis. Then we had dinner together. Mom loves watching cricket (only when India plays 
). Today was the 2nd T20I Ind vs South Africa. I realized that family is home and nothing is safer than home. (Well, I do understand this might not be the case for everyone but I am lucky to have a good supportive family
). There’s something so comforting about being around loved ones, sharing moments that make the heart feel lighter. It’s amazing how a bit of laughter and companionship can change your outlook.
And thanks for advising me to spend time around people and watching comedy in the previous post. Your comments really made my day.
How did your day go?
What did you have for dinner?

Mind you language is a great series to watch. While I was a teenager the reruns used to be there in tv . I watched the whole series and it is a good one to uplift the moods. Unfortunately none of those actors survive except for 3 of them. God bless their souls! It has been an extremely busy day for me . For me hours fly quickly on weekdays and I would still be stuck with my works and things. At times, I wonder why I am unable to complete things. Well, the simple reason I have lot in my plate and I need time to clear them off. I had veg burrito for dinner. It was good for a change. Good to read you thoughts. I see you are much better. Have a wonderful day ahead!

Although I knew its an old one, so it's kinda expected that some of them might not live to this day, however knowing that only 3 of them are alive is making me sad. It's gonna hit different when I rewatch the show again.
Btw you could watch the reruns of Mind your language on tv? Wow. For me it's youtube. Do you remember the channel name?

@Dreamerby They used to show it in Star plus . You can check out comedy central if they have reruns of 'Mind your language'. If not , then it is only youtube.

@Dreamerby What do you mean? Are your biological parents still alive? As for me, they are not here.

I stay alone with my dog who keeps me on my toes. My elder son visits me often and works from home. I love chatting with him.

Being with our loved ones can bring us happiness and love. I treated myself to some Japanese food for dinner, which was on sale.

Time is another thing that diffuses situations making them less intense

Yes. Comedy and spending time with mom really helped. I was having mood swings.

I saw a very good comedy vlog on You Tube this morning which had salty language but funny since it is true that some persons want to leave America since Donald Trump was elected POTUS and the nations that the host suggested was funny since other nations are not as tolerant to actions that are legal in America.
