8 am: I am on "get things done"
mode. Prepare roti, sabji, dal, chawal, salad for husband's lunch tiffin along
with the breakfast of the day. These things matter the world to a housewife
whose main KRA is to feed her family.
Chop chop chop - vegetables cut.
Suuusshhhh purrs the water in the cooker -
wooohooooo. Cooker's whistle right on time.
Knead, roll and twist, roll and twist - The
dough for rotis' done.
And so on, you get the gist.
10 am: Hush, Done for now. Tiffin nicely packed,
husband had to wait for 15 mins because I was running late. But that's fine. He
will readily forgive me when he eats my tasty meal at lunch ☺☺
Feeling quite
smug about it. Say goodbyes for the day and husband is off to office.
10.20 am: Decide I should reward myself a
nice steaming cup of coffee. So prepare it and put it in microwave for heating,
while I look outside at the pouring rain. It is bliss not having to rush to
office in the pouring rains. Thank God !
The humming of the microwave, the coffee
aroma is making me excited and I look forward to this day, in my happy bubble state!
10.30 am: I am about to settle down with
coffee and a novel when the phone starts ringing.
Hubby calling! My happy bubble fluffs up a
bit, "Wow, to say he loves me and to thank me for the Tiffin????!!!!"
"Hello Hubby!"
"Darling, I forgot my tiffin on the
couch only. Really sorry!"
Whhhatttt???? Really??!
Someone burst my bubble for sure!
Guess, our quest for perfection is an
ongoing journey.
