Monday comes again...!

The Weekend passed in a jiffy..

We have been to my wife's family home at Varkala.. It is hardly an hrs drive from the city. Kids love the place.. It is an old, tiled, wooden house in a serene and tranquil atmosphere.. Far from the madding crowds! The nearest neighbour is well beyond a full throated shout, I would say.. Rice fields dot the eastern side and there is a narrow stream flowing beside the rice fields.. It was fun playing with my kids there.. They were busy throwing large round leaves into the water; and these were supposedly their huge warships..: Fighting each other to lead the way.. My daughter burst into tears when her Ship was stuck onto a bulging rock in the midst of the steam.. The row ended there and it was time for lunch.... We packed off on Sunday evening and reached here at about 7:30 PM... Quick dinner and back to bed...

Well, it's Monday again.. Yet another week of hectic schedule at office.. Same for my wife, albeit having different timings.. She starts at 7:30 AM and back at home at about 4:00 PM... Well, the kids go wild during the day... It is tough for them...

Coming back to my Monday sickness... I share the same lousy feeling as Tom Sawyer had for Mondays... The mere thought of a Monday is enough to give me a head ache... The long list of mails to sift through... Project meetings... The late stay at office... It is sickening indeed... But again, this is part of life... I hope to grow up sometime to bid farewell to this Monday syndrome....

with love
