Jan 21, 2018 - What went well today?

Sunday

  1. Deployment went without a hitch.. done by 9 am.
  2. MIL made my favorite roasted eggplant tamarid curry and was yum.
  3. Craved for some snack and got to make one of favorite Ragi pakoda.
  4. Completed watching a movie in 5hrs over 2 days... thanks to my kids.
  5. Coming home to watch the kids rush to me and shower me with hugs and kisses, is what makes to worth going home every day. Kids grow up really fast and I wish to cherish all their innocent love and affection while it lasts. Love them to the moon and back.

Saturday... PTM day

  1. I assumed my kids' dad wouldn't make it to the PTM but he did. Thats a good thing for the son boy. He was super excited to have the entire family got to his school.
  2. And ain't I a proud mamma... His teacher had only the nicest things to say about him.. the smartest in the class, the only one who knows to read all my himself, creative, and the list went on. So proud of you my boy :)
  3. His school annual day is coming up and he plays the main role of a Dentist in a play. Can't wait to see him perform on stage.

Jan 19, 2018 - What went well today?

Friday... weekend is almost here.

  1. Early morning... he returned home safe after his pilgrimage to Shridi.. not that he cares if I am concerned :D 
  2. Got Shri Sai SatCharitra from him after being blessed by my Sai himself. I hope and believe good things will come for me and the kids. 
  3. Did not wear the knee caps to work today... knee isn't that painful. The discomfort is reducing. Hope it wears off eventually. This has taught me to pay attention to my body, the only temple I've to live it and not take it for granted. 
  4. Spoke to an old friend after days and felt extremely relaxed, accepted, supported and comforted. Thanks, my friend.
  5. Went to the parlor and got my tired feet pampered... after ages I hardly remember when was the last time.

Jan 18, 2018 - What went well today?


  1. Things at work went well... the releases and deployments and the verification.
  2. Thursday it is... I wanted to have an one to one with Sai. Something kept hindering the plan.. I was angry with him for all the reasons he knows too well about. I avoided going to my usual temple... I did not want to meet him and get emotional. I purposely went with another colleague so I would not be taking my usual commute route. But like a magnet I was forced to go to the temple close to my home to which I had been years ago. Had a monologue with him and he kept looking into my eyes as if to say... shut up, I know what I am doing. OK.. that is me assuming he said that because I don't understand anything these days. I don't know to read signs from the divine, I don't hear voices guiding me or consoling me, etc. Whatever, I felt good none the less.
  3. Kids... how I love them. The way they run to me and hug when they see me every evening... just priceless. That innocent affection and love... worth going back home every single day. They keep me alive.

Now, today was a great day...

  1. Ethnic day at office following Pongal and I am all set to be happy today. Took courage to wear a sleeveless blouse for the first ever time, the one I bought exactly a year ago. One mental block overcome today even it took a year. Paired it with a (supposedly) Kadhi soft cotton saree that I bought last July but felt it would never suit me. But guess what? I totally rocked it. Many complimented.. friend took beautiful pics and without missing a beat, uploaded as the profile pic in all my social networking sites.
  2. The kids' dad messaged that he had good, peaceful dharshans of my Sai at Shirdi. Happy for him.
  3. He declared today that I will always be one of his best friends... and that would be our relationship for eternity. what should I be feelings? I was unaffected and completely at ease. A huge step for me. Proud of myself.

Honestly, I don't remember anything from this day. Except the things that usually keep me happy.


  1. My daughter's never ending hugs and kisses.
  2. Son boy's shy hugs and no kisses  :)
  3. They had been to a neighbor's 2nd birthday and looks like they had fun having loads of cakes and other sweet stuff. Their happiness was infectious.

Jan 15, 2018 - What went well today?

I should start writing everyday... its 19th Jan today and I already don't remember what happened just on 15th. But unfortunately, I remember things from many days, weeks, years ago as if its happening right now.


  1. Very early in the morning I had someone to go to, cuddle when feeling lonely or not able to fall asleep... Felt good. Even if it was just for a while, and it has been officially declared as the last time this would happen.
  2. My children's father said he is off to Shridi to see my Sai... I've been asking him for years and years that we would go. Being brushed off every time, its finally nice to know that he has got his calling even if he did not care about my requests all these years. Good for him. I prayed for his safe journey and wished him peace. When "best" friends influence, things do happen.
