signs of comfort??

This morning, I came to think of how I come back home, spend time in front of the TV and internet.
I do not blink twice to even think of what I need to do if I s
top doing this waste of time activity.

I need to get a plan in place once I am back home.

I need to:

- have clothes ironed for the next day;

- see the house has sufficient supplies of everything needed to run without having to run out every one or two days to buy things

- see the finance related items are tracked once every month – identify a day to focus on bank tasks, and one day on investment tracking

- discuss Indore issues weekly and see alternatives for that

o construction funding

o health checkup schedules

- monitor health, identify good doctors around, talk to Rachana

- identify a good financial planner to monitor insurance needs, investment plans

- plan for pre-payment of loan, set aside funds every month for that

- read Read READ and Study rather than TV and internet

    be focused and use time effectively despite the travel

    do all this with the work pressure that is likely to be on for a long time – if I need to maintain the financial situation I am in;

    improvement of this situation is a different aspect altogether which needs a different strategy which I have not thought about yet…

bujju called last night but Since I had a nature call, didn’t spend time with her.. she was feeling disappointed…I felt

somewhere inside, today I felt that I should not worry too much about the work. I should just understand the key areas I have to focus on and take the rest as they come along

Kaushik seems to be a trustworthy guy but one never knows.. have to understand how I can get all the info I need, and what would be the right questions to ask…

I hope I will be able to pick the right areas soon… and go with a positive approach!!!

So help me – good forces!!!

spoke to bujju about the doctor's visit. bujju has been told that she should have felt some movement, and that this was just the beginning of the 18th week, so the doctor suggested to wait for another week for the movement to be felt. Seems that the doctor might be taking some casual approach or maybe she is buying time to tell her observations.. can't be sure what... I for myself based on the calc. tool of pregnency seem to conclude this is the 18th week.. considering 19th Dec to be the date of conception.. but i will have to re-visit this and find out what is more accurate..

based on what she told, me I think bujju has this notion that - which might be very valid too for I Am not aware of the reasons nor the custom/logic of the notion - pregnant mothers do not travel in the even number months...

this notion coupled with the doctor's advice seemed to have put her into a different thought process of maybe delaying her travel.. but hope she does not get perturbed by this thought process of what the doctor suggested.. esp. because the doctor adviced she would feel some movement which she has not.. so maybe she feels a little concerned...

but she definitely likes to take my advice on things and I seem to most often rebutt her approach... which is not what I should do.. she tells me things as they are and I seem to just take them for granted instead of giving her sufficient benefit of doubt... CHAnGE THIS ATTITUDE

my whole thinking goes with the fact that she should be able to take some decisions on her own.. for she should know what would work best for everyone.. she will have to be given those options to think ahead in time and plan accordingly... have asked her to discuss with Amma and see what would be the best option.. hoping that travel will not be an issue at all .. will wait for my next call with her and see how to work this out...

Virodhi Namasamvatsaram prarambhishyati

A new Hindu year begun today... by the name Virodhi
With this starts my new session .. with my parents blessings that I have them with me in this time and that they are seeing such good times for all of us...

Traveled home today.. took a half day yesterday.. took the decision early in the morning that I should be here.. called up the bus counter and got a ticket in the morning.. 500/- heafty fine for this travel... went to work, returned around 415pm.. while the bus was to be boarded at 5.. had no time for anything. so just about watered the plants, washed the vessels, repacked the bag and moved out.. left some milk in the fridge. hope that would remain as it is.. the fridge cleaning task is still pending....

started off at about 1725 from near Goregaon flyover.. in the AC bus.. the Haraynvi driver and cleaner setting up an interesting war of words and thoughts.. kept me engaged at the way a city can be a confluence of different cultures.. with the pickup guy being a Maharashtrian and they all working for a Punjabi company owner... living in MP... what a diversity of life and thoughts... trying to make a living for success..

took about hour and a half reaching Sion.. and there ended up with a good bunch of 3 fellows.. 2 business guys, 1 MTech guy and we spent the whole night almost till 1am.. discussing life in Bombay and the way this nation is.. the business people were very well travelled in India, and had stories to tell.. the way the nation is in different parts of the states.. very very interesting experiences some of them...
both of them were from Gujarat, Jains and very downtoearth.. at least at the informal level..
very pucca business people.

also had company of a TechM female employee..

so slept around 1am.. thru till about 9.. with one stop in between in the morning which I thoguht was Sendhwa but it was not... turned out it was later where the bus did not stop...
with a delay of almost 3 hours.. reached around 1pm instead of 10am. Bad traffic management due to the huge workload happening for 4-laning the NH3...in progress at at various parts along Maharashtra and MP... India 're-developing'

The baby's news is being considered at different levels.. need to talk to Amma and Pappa about their views.. how to progress with what all preparations are needed... and what is to be expected next..

Amma has shown some thought process about ultrasound progress.. seems she has concerns of some kind - will have to check on that...

Got the new Set Top Box installed.. SR cable with ACT Digital TV company tie-up
earlier it was B-Tv with Hathway.. seemed to be a better option but will have to now try this box for 1 day on a trial basis to decide if they want to continue with it or not.. paying 1000/- for the STB..

the cable TV operators are the moguls of TV distribution world these days.. they are the ones who control the stakes of distribution so customers have no choice but to go whoever is there in their area.. no other options are available for customers.. and one has to live with the whims and fancies of these guys...
we don't know if this 1000/- is something they are charging us only or others too...
this is how things are here..
