Corona Lockdown - Day 12- 5th April 2020

My day today started early. My guest bed room is turned out be my office now. I have all half read books, laptop and iPad lying on the bed. Had taken out my school diary to click picture for one of my school friends on what he has written for me in my diary - which is nothing but a scrap book :) . Listening to the birds from my neighbor's caged birds, sipping the tea was re reading this diary. This was written by all my school friends and is almost 19 years back. All our hand writings were so neat and clean. Now a days we don't write much but type in many a times, if that becomes tough we also use auto type feature also. Felt good to start my day reading this diary after so long time. Couldn't complete it but as I had to pick a new book from my book rack, this is the only read I did for the day.

This is how the day went.

Work Out: Today is Sunday and is a cheat day. But I did sweep and wiped the floor not using the mop stick but with the cloth. This is a good exercise and I should continue this.

Meditate: This is the best part of the day. Attended both the sessions and were really good.

Read: Not started with any new read yet. I picked "How to grow Rich"  for the fifth time but somehow it went back to my book rack again. I need to pick something out of the 4 books I had got it.

Cook: Breakfast was Palak kichdi. Lunch was my usual curd with dry fruits. For dinner it was Chapathi with Palak Chutney.

Music:Had a nice time with my JLB bluetooth speaker connected to iPad while cleaning home and while cooking. It started with Dr Rajkumar hits in the morning to Ed Sheeran's tracks by evening.
As it was a call by PM to light lamps at 9, had kept Bhajans running in loop from 8 PM onward.

Write: I am happy with this writing for now.

Cleaning: Weekend routine cleaning. Started with TV Unit, Dining table, Pooja unit, book rack and kitchen shelves. I was tired with this.

Couldn't put my mind on any new learning today.

Unlock The Wardrobe!!

Washing machine seemed whispering to the tap with a wicked smile - "Same faded ones" The tap appeared saying  -"once again??" with a wrinkled eyebrows! Detergent was crying "These are already faded - how can I make them fader again?" I looked at the clothes I was dumping to wash They appeared talking "how nice the ones resting in hangers" We are the ones kept lying half folded for easy access! we are picked directly from the string where we will be still drying said the other! They seemed questioning "Why we are being used the whole day??" I am missing the perfume sprinkled cozy partners said the machine! still waiting for the colorful ones to treat them better! I am in awe with the freedom they get beach washed in machine and sun-soaked dance in air to get themselves dry up! Little did they know how lockdown felt!

Corona Lockdown - Day 35 - 28th April 2020

It was a good day. Cloudy day and the day was filled with many activities. Many a time we think we are inside the home and are locked down and are not going out these days. But the new positive possibilities are hidden at this time. I am putting myself a few questions. Am I learning anything related to the field of my work? Am I giving my dedicated time to people in my world? Am I doing the things I have been hidden under the carpet many times? There are many more queries inside, are we giving a separate dedicated time for answering each query that we had within. Time to analyze and retrospect our own self. My day looked like this. Breakfast: Veg pullav Lunch: Had the same I made for breakfast as it was pending. Dinner: Chapathi, dum aloo, and pudina chutney. Dessert: Egg pudding Meditation: I did complete only the evening meditation session today. I had an important call at noon so I couldn't attend. Work out: Liking this time now. As I usually take up in the evening p...
