Shru
Arey nahi yaar
We all do it

Yaha kaun sa naukar hai tu bata?
We have to do it. Not many caterers in my town either. Too much politics on top.

Plus the joy of entertaining quadruples when you cook it all.
I am a very high energy person I think, I have to have 10 things on a typical day otherwise I get bored rapidly

I used to do more... things changed
I am happy for what I have...

My 8 year old lost a tooth last nite and accidentally let it fall into the sink hole, he asked his brother to write to the tooth fairy, 17 year old DID (wrote to himself :p) and signed FAIRY


I stuck a $1 bill under the pillow cover
He screamed with joy this morning

I said "How come I never get any money under my pillow?"
He goes "Well Mommy you are not EIGHT and you are not PECIAL"

Sigh!!

Why cant life be like that all the time

Cute kid Nisha. You're a high energy person...please transfer some to me, I'm a sloth. I can lie in bed for hours doing nothing but staring at the ceiling.

Sudhi
I do that a LOT
Especially after taking my afternoon naps on weekends... I stare out the window and try to ponder about the meaning of life.
I am suddenly fearful about old age and spending it a nursing home in this country
I wonder about how the heck I landed so far away from home and familiar things
The feelings of anxiety are more pronounced in winter than summer. Winter brings a lot of thoughtfulness

I'm fearful if dying an old maid...alone and single and all my friends will be busy in their lives with husbands and kids. Winters are very gloomy

Talk about dull winters :( Long afternoon naps are my number one priority for me too whenever I have a break !
True - loneliness in this far land is more scarier than anything else in this country

sudhi
You will be FINE
Trust me
Just when you least expect it life will turn around. It always does. Dont let my anxiety get to you. I am in a different place in life... you are too young to be thinking that far ahead.

Many of my friends dont take any afternoon naps Jas, they feel too "homesick" they say when they wake up. I almost didnt believe it until recently. Now I do... you feel a strange disconnect with everything for an hour or two...

Who knows whats in store for us...

Sudhi I was telling my teenager yesterday Robert Downey Jr's quote "Worrying is like praying for something bad to happen"

I am trying extremely hard to remind myself of it every time
We have no power to control anything

Laying awake at night used to be my favorite hobby... good times and bad times
But nowadays I channel RDJ's quote... roll over and start thinking abt Sosy or ID

Or TRUMP...

Good Luck with school Tia
Its an amazing thing to do. I never had to live too far away from family. I dont think I am cut out for it, even when I travel for work, I lay awake at night, hating the hotel room. A new place can be intimidating and scary. Atleast not as scary as it was 20 years ago with no cellphones, computers and internet. Those three things have caused distance to evaporate completely.
You can talk everyday, all day, virtually for free. You can see your home and parents too...
The SE Asian diaspora is spread far and wide across the UK, you will probably find no apartments where there arent Desis.

We live in good times...
School homework etc will make you feel better soon

Good Luck
