I have been feeling de-motivated
for the last few months. Blame on the weather, missing family, being unwell or having
troublesome three year old toddler at home or even the fact this new place is yet
to feel like home. Every from 6am till 8pm feels like being on the the
Finally I have reached a stage, I feel desperate need for a break where there no sun, no extreme
winters, beach, rain n NO FAMILY... does such place exist? Somebody suggested to
go off to Utopia. Wonder where this place is?
Sometimes it feels, I am not good enough as a mum, wife and the career
has gone for a complete toss. Laziness is slowly gripping me like a warm
blanket. And the lets not forget about our peculiar gender problems PMSing. Apart from the normal womanly abnormalities, I also came down with
UTI. The problem is not a big issue apart from the pain. But what is most
irritating is everyone asking me to drink water and cranberry juice. If I seriously
took everyone’s advice we might run short of drinking water in Muscat
Leaving all that aside my parents we here for 10 days. Felt like a bliss! I have been away from home for little over 10 years now and I crave for them to stay with us. Credit really goes to my mother for making me fat, thanks to all moong dal
halwa, namak paare, not to forget the other scrumptious food that I had been gobbling down.
But then I
thought to myself - we all have are fat days ... and days like these I think about eating only
salads.... There's another perspective on salad..
Eventually the moral of the story as my husband would conclude – “There
are no solutions to my problems.” Actually there is Ice-cream but it goes straight
to the BUM and then fat days will be back all over again.
Hey Sangeeta, beautifully written. For sure straight from the heart.
ReplyDeleteLife surely has been a roller coaster for you and I can fully understand how difficult it is to stay away from home and go through all. But at the end you got the right spirit in you.
You are the one who looks beautiful even on the hospital bad so just do not worry about getting fat. As you are not. You are awesome and beautiful.
You got the most loveable parents who visit you often, which is awesome, trust me my parents never visited me all 8 to 9 years when I was away so you are Blessed.
I will do a sin would advise you here that you start sharing more with someone whom you can share without being judged, just go on and on and it will do wonders for you.
Remember you are beautiful and awesome
Awwie Amit thank you so much ... you have always been really kind ... Thanks a bunch for perking me up :) cheers !!!
DeleteYou know I am actually grinning reading this lovely note ..
Hi Sangeeta, liked going through your 'woes'. We all have them sometime or the other. But atleast we bloggers are lucky and get to vent it out in public. I did just that for the whole of last month as I was doing an extremely demanding course that made me scream and shout and beg for sympathy on my FB page. It worked wonders when i would get likes and the comments soothed my pains even on the dullest of days. So hang on there and the tide will soon pass over.
ReplyDeleteAwe mehroo ... big hugs coming to you too love ... Thank you so much for all the love.. xoxo
DeleteSangeeta, big hugs coming you way! I can imagine how you must feel. It can be too overwhelming at times. I hope this feeling comes and goes quickly and you feel better with time :)
ReplyDeleteThankie shilaja.... Sometimes all we need is a little love ... I am still recovering ... will put a celebratory post on it then ;)
DeleteSangeeta, take care. Sometimes, there can be too much on our plates that overwhelms us. I hope you start feeling better soon.
ReplyDeleteThanks Rachna.... my frustration comes from the fact that I have everything but except parents around us to love n calm .. my mother in law is coming on the 8th hope to get pampered
DeleteSometimes,I wish too that Utopia did exist. At least we, bloggers have a place to vent out our feelings. Take care.
