..the flop side of having Internet at home ..raving and ranting about all the troubles in the world ..the news is my SIL and family might come back to India. Its good , since it will keep my MIL in very good moods ... ..
.. want an example of the kind of advice you get when you are the DIL of the house ..MIL suddenly asks "what would be the general salary of a lecturer? " ...and to my raised eye brows ..she came out pat with the answer . ..i heard they are good ..why don't you apply as a lecturer when you go to Chennai and are jobless ? Good idea and may be she is right but she has to understand that may be it applies to her daughter also..
..an example of the the way people can get sympathy out of any one ..call to a loud voiced mum and cry over her shoulders ..and that is what the SIL and MIL keep doing it in periods of time ...
SIL has an experience of 7 years in the IT industry ..just imagine 7 years and her Hd is the PM where ever she goes ..just imagine what would be the earning of a couple who have earned in the prime of the IT industry time .. but still the whole family keeps complaining abt the market and their jobs..
..lord why did you put me here..!!
Ok fine , if this is what i have to be through!
Before marriage often when i am stressed out i would imagine and visualize myself with some one , mostly a male to whom i am pouring my troubles or just having good time..
..now i just see myself alone like the poem below ..doing things just by myself..
..might sound like an exaggeration but my analysis shows just this .

So many thank you's!
So ..so ..so Here i am back again and this time with a vengeance..:D
Cant believe the fact that it had been 12 days since i found time to write and God bless Tata Indicom which provided me Internet at home in 3 days !! So i have internet at home which i hope will remain with me , because good things fly past me in a jiffy !!Allah tumhe buri nazar se bachaaye..!! ..and let me tell you the truth , i think i shelled so much money just to write some thing at home ,which has become a near impossible at work since i am spied from all directions and things at work have go so black , that any view of Internet at work is considered one minute of wasting client service time .Well , that's the end of blogging at work and for good .
So much has happened at work and home , that its hard to put them all down ..and very hard to tell the truth . I just want to put the happy things first and they are
1.My best girl got engaged and it was such happiness to see the bride and the boy looking content and wonderful at the same time . That's real happiness , thank you god for this and its from the bottom of the heart .
2.A major catastrophe got slightly averted at home , or my world would have been shattered
to ..dont know what ! but it would have been a big thing if it had it not been averted at time .Thank you god again ! this one is again from the bottom of the heart !!
3.I and Hd had a wonderful time at home this week end and it was so much fun to surprise aunts and uncles , by giving them a surprise visit. And it was still a more surprise for him to see such highly qualified people being so humble and down to earth , it gave him a slight shock .
4.I got internet at home which is highly unstable , but all the same thank you for that!
...Good things are to be remembered first !!

So here I go again…
If any one would have asked me this year last time , if I would be travelling every week end some place , may be I would just blinked and shrugged my shoulders ....
Well , it ‘s no fun now writing that I have travelled again to Chennai this week end . Well , it was unexpected and I took an impulsive decision to travel on knowing that Hd could not travel this week end . So there I was at 9 30 on Friday night at kukatpally waiting fir the Kesineni bus , watching the surroundings impatiently listening impatiently to the NTR movie dialogues , clutching my laptop bag , and silently praying that I can exchange my 35 number last seat to some other seat in the front .
Nothing of that sort happened but as the word given by the Bus management the seat beside me was empty and I could actually lift my legs and keep them on the side seat and travel peacefully.
--and it was such action packed week end , with one day fully settling down with the new furniture , what with the washing machine person also coming on the same day .Though nothing is arranged fully yet , we could manage to live by shoving all the packing material into the balcony . Hd was a bit disappointed that the Cargo person has not managed to get things well..and well I just accepted the fact that nothing can be get done 100% in one shot , so except for one chair all the assembled furniture pieces came out well and we could manage to smile by the end of the day .
Sunday was super duper day , with amma and nanna coming and getting us a beautiful lamp as present , as a gift for our house . ..and the thing that really mattered to me was the food amma made , it was well home food which I had been missing all these days and now with the tummy full of it , I think I can manage 2 more weeks of outside food , travelling and all kind of crap.

My parents gift on we getting new furniture : A small lamp from Aurobindo ashram made with hand including the paper wrapped for it. ....

So, yesterday 's pain pays off and the sweet helpful packer guy (Khan Bhai,the typical Nampally muslim who give 'Za-baan' for everything :D ) turned around at 9 30 , packed all the gifts (if u are wondering from where ) , they are our wedding gifts , into 2 neat boxes .Wow its was such a sign of relief to wake up in the morning and see an empty corner ,which i have been seeing from day one of marriage crammed with boxes of all shapes . ....
......and a lot of pain to see the bank account limits falling like a slippery goat.

Things cant get more wrong than this..
Took a bus from chennai (sleeper vovlo ) to find that am in between 3 gigantic men and there is no place in the coup to even stand..it was so uncomfortable ..Well exchanged the seat to upper berth and was subjected to a ride full of rolling and almost tumbling down ....and a back ache in the morning....
Got down at nampally and realized that this is one area which will never change ..i get down the bus and am crowded by auto wallas who tell me it is 80 rs for the ride home..i show i am a hyderabad walli and say 'Meter pe aana hain to chalo , nahin to chhodo' ( as if they caught me) hyderabadi hindi you see , it can be spoken in any bits and pieces ..:D
they realize i am from that place and i am immediately taken to a "Chi-chha' how wants more than 5 rs than the fair ..OK fair enough ..i had a tough night..and badly wanted to go home.
Get home to find my bro has actually put all the gifts at my in laws house ..i have a bloody fight with him and as of now my promise is not to have anything to do with him for the coming future.Absolutely nothing.The End.
Have to plead with inlaws about being at home for some time for the packers to come at some time to wrap the gifts. and sign Hmmm..for whom am i doing this?
Go to the furniture shop to find to make the payment and realize that the debit limit per day is onlu 20000 ..go to icici bank from paradise to clock tower only to realize that there are a 100 people in the line and my turn would never come .So back to the furniture shop to plead with the owner abt the paying tomm the balance amount.The owner looks sympathetically at my face and simply nods his head .
Take an auto to hi tech city , i think half my salary goes to autos only only to have a fight with him about a one way road ..god help me..run out of change and have to take a loan of 20rs from security.
Run to the desk ..and phew!!no heart-attack mails.thank god at least for this.
..and from then on i am working ..bleary eyed , fighting back sleep and hoping to go home by 8!
P.S : home is never a home without mom or dad.Siblings,friends , relatives , etc., will come and go but home to be precise only MOM can make a home. god bless moms.
