Hello mylotters. Hope all well in your corner. It's Friday afternoon here and I am back from work. Yay!! Weekend begins . Happy to be back to work this week and getting excited to welcome weekend. I plan to keep it slow and relaxed doing the minimum. Yesterday, there was heavy pouring for about half an hour in the afternoon. I was busy in taking the therapy session. Seems like there was a beautiful rainbow outside that I missed while working. I got to know of it only when I saw messages from my friends. My daughters were out enjoying with their friends and they saw it while coming back and clicked the picture from the car. My husband was upstairs and he realized it a bit late. By then it started to fade away. This is the picture taken by him. I chose this over my daughters picture despite the rainbow being faded. My daughters picture has more traffic than the rainbow. At least here, we get to see some soothing greenery. My elder daughter is going back tonight. That makes me a bit sad. Anyways, she chose to spend today with one of her school friend who came last night to the city. They have gone for breakfast at one Korean outlet that has recently opened. My younger daughter requested her to eat less, so that she can come back for lunch and enjoy something special that she is cooking for her. She is in kitchen, cooking and baking something. We will see what it is in some time when elder one comes back. I will try to post a picture in the next post. My elder one leaves tonight after dinner. And she has still not started packing. Her things are scattered all over the house and she is doing some last minute shopping with her friend after their breakfast. This generation works at the last moment. And I am sure that when she packs, I will keep reminding her for things. That's all for blabbering from this side. I will read your posts and respond till I get a call for lunch. The aroma is nice and I am sure that something good is cooking

Young people now are a lot different from even the way my daughter does things... I packed a few days before we left for a trip... My daughter packs the day before we leave on a trip... It always worried me when she took so long to get ready to go but at least I knew she was ready before the car was started.

@DaddyEvil Yes. Now she has left. The house seems weirdly silent without her

She packed just half an hour before she left. She stayed cool and relaxed, playing games with her sister. I was worried and starred putting her stuffs together on the bed, so that she doesn't forget. .

It must be interesting sitting back and watching your two girls getting on with their lives. Our children do things so differently to us, don't they?

@arunima25 It's probably good that she is a little more laid-back than perhaps you are but perhaps too she depends on you to help her get organised.

@JudyEv I like it now when she gets me involved in organizing her things when she is here. When she cleans and organize her room in the college hostel, she will video call me and show it.. She wants to boast and even show that she gets it from me.

Yes, I am also like that. Once I know of the trip, I would slowly start planning and packing a little each day. She made stuffed garlic bread and banana muffins. I will share the pics once I make post about that.

It looks like there is a faint double rainbow. I'm sorry your daughters are going back to school. Rest as much as you can.

What a beautiful picture. The rainbow and the backdrop were captured amazingly. Have fun with your daughters while they are with you. I am sure everything will turn out well for you and them. Now, I remember to eat at my fave Korean restaurant.

He was a bit late to capture it. The rainbow started fading by then. Yes, the greenery around my home is lovely. It was a beautiful double rainbow. My elder daughter left and the house is weirdly silent without her. Well, it's a part of life. It moves on. Well, hope that you get to eat at your favorite Korean restaurant soon. I have not tried anything Korean so far, except kimichi.
