LOCKDOWN

SILENCE.. birds are chirping.. no honking… feels like on vacation… not in town … somewhere outside.. feeling so relaxed full of time… with a sip of tea.. wanted to do some meditation..before I could…

Loud voice... Mom! where are you? Look what’s happened … another splash of water on clothes … who did it .. why are you playing with water.. from silence to roller coaster ride of questions.

Looking at the whole mess… realised it’s LOCKDOWN IN COUNTRY. Oh no, HELP! Everyone’s at home. All messed up,  the work began with many other flaws, which makes us realise how dependent we are on domestic helpers, without them the situation gets so panicked. 

Man of the house is resting, who no more seems to be mr. perfect. Although, he is taking care of many other things without saying.

Thank you, but really need help at household works. There is no routine for breakfast, lunch or dinner. After every meal everyone is looking for desserts. In between is also chaos of snacks.

Looking at the grocery…

It’s just day 1, fingers crossed don’t know how will next 20 days pass.

People are getting innovative, funny videos with lots of humour is making the world laugh and busy.. the traffic has been diverted from roads to internet…

Back to back series of Netflix ,prime, hotstar,,, the list is on… getting back to golden days of spending time with parents playing caram board ,badminton…

After our honourable PM SPEECH ON TV… made me realise, the situation in the country… in 21 days we won’t be short of food …. but if the period is extended we need to use our basic essential needs carefully.. so that no one is left behind…little angel and I sat on the table and decided, the menu and realised how disappointed she was that she can’t have outside food or go out for play . Explained to her you have to be patient and save your little hands for the country.

On the phone to her maternal grandmother she was complaining and explaining too, all the flaws and safety points. The innocence in her could also see the danger but had all hopes that not only the country but our earth will be fine.
