The new year has started. Feels so fresh and crisp. I don’t know if the weather has got to do something with this. Feeling quite upbeat. So far loving the job. That may not last or hopefully may last also. 

I am using the google reader so far to keep up with my blog reads. So I kept reading what you all are up to throughout the week. But couldn’t comment much. Had that all saved for the weekend. But the weekend is all over all ready. I am going to post my thoughts on week nights before I fall asleep.

We just finished dinner while watching the movie ‘Signs’. It is a good one. This weekend my sis-in-law’s parents came down for an overnight visit. It went well. I cooked a bit for them. We made those naan breads and some curries to go with it. It was a bit of work. Brother and sis-in-law are both have bad colds. I think I will mention bro as DB and sis-in-law as DS for ease. DS has a cute 8 yr old nephew who came down too. The boy is an only child with a stay at home mom. I feel he gets too much attention and correction. He was very happy to get to play video games and watch cartoons endlessly. DS’s mom was continuously bugging him. I felt as if she just didn’t want him to be happy. Not that she doesn’t love him, it’s just that she feels like she is right all the time and must weild her power. I guess I am overreacting. 

Today morning they all left. Had a good lunch afterwards. I did eat a bit of rice but lots of vegetables too. I was planning to cook after lunch but fell asleep. Got up at five. Ran around and started a lentil soup. Then DS and I went to the supermarket. Bought veggies, groceries, magazines, yoghurt, watermelon, lunch box set, green tea and a whole bunch of other stuff. Came back and made a chickpea dish ( a bit like the chilli) and baked a dish of veggies. Then watched the movie. I am so tired. But looking forward to work tomorrow. That is such a welcome change.

I truly appreciate all your lovely comments and the kindest wishes. I wish the very best for you too. Take care, my sweethearts.
