The Weekend..!

The blog I had written wen in the US.. THE SUNDAY..

Weekend..

This word has always left me in awe. There may be hardly any other word as in demand. Come Monday & Tuesday, the weekend is in past referrals. Wednesday is looking forward to the coming one. Thursday, the weekend heat starts evolving. Friday, past noon, it is weekend mood! Saturday and Sunday, do I need to say anything??

I used to always wonder, what it is that is associated with these days? Cos, for me, it was Thursday, Saturday and Sunday, the busiest day. Just that there was a difference in the routine. So, the curious dumb head of mine wanted to have one such corporate weekend! And here, in the developed world of the States, in the bay area of California, that's what I am enjoying! Yes, enjoying..

Yesterday, Sunday, woke a bit late, like at 07.00 am. Was on net till 9. Went out for a walk at 9, but ended up with bro in his car, to pick up breakfast and coffee! Come back home and.. And is relaxed! No rush, no hush.. No enforcing bath, nor any chores.. We relax and munch over the breakfast for around an hour. An hour more is spent on discussing the plan for Sunday. And, then a plan comes up for shopping. I don't wana get out of that lazy mood, but cos the shopping is necessary, I decide to move my lazy bums.. And to my astonishment, I have to just move them from the dining to the sofa! Cos the old fashioned shopping is out.. Darshan, which world are you in? These are the days of IT. We log in on few sites, and start looking for products. Ranging from the spare parts of the toilet flush to a whole house.. From the necessities of an expecting mother to the extravagant need of branded stuff for an adult.. All's available at the click of a mouse.

Finally, done with shopping, we relax. OR are we really done with shopping? Hmmm.. depends on the perspective. Cos we have actually purchased nothing, neither has anything been delivered. We have just yet shortlisted the products! There will be more research done over the day. Much more factors thought about, and finally it will be ordered! Wow.. I never can imagine my tiny li'l brain processing all this data and trying to figure out a solution. Thats why probably my shirt never matches my trousers, and I need to use the weekdays defined socks, so that I dont end up wearing same combination for the whole week! Yes, its true.. I am still dependent on mom and sis for this!

Hmmm.. So, now we choose to move! I go for a shower. Come out to find myself hungry again! Wat a capacity this small size of digestive system has! By the time I am making my plate, the phones are already ringing and the plan being made. It is not easy to plan.. Especially when you have as many options as your mind wants to think of! After hard work of 2 hours, a plan is finalized. And the best part is, it is already 4 pm in the clocks and the place we need to visit is open till 5. Now what? Again the frenzy calls and the plan is altered. We finally find a winery and wine tasting is going to be the evening!

I am excited to be there! Looking forward to the evening..! AND.. Is the best part of the Sunday..

Coming up in next post..!
