Happy New Working Year !!!

Friday afternoon I felt the real need for a break from my daily office routine. I wanted a weekend for myself and was waiting for that since the start of the week. But these two days of weekend turned out to be more vigorous than my entire work week. I left a bit early from office on Friday evening to spend sometime with kela.

Saturday morning, I get a surprise that we have an in-house party for the New Years. I had made some awesome plans to sleep, then again sleep and then again sleep. But I could clearly see them fade away as soon as the day started and as it progressed it became worse with everyone making complete use of my holiday to make preparations for the party. At the end of the day in the evening when everyone was looking fresh and neatly tugged up in their party attire, I was completely sapped. I was looking pale with my eyes sunk and legs feeling weary. This was the first New Year eve when I actually prayed for the year to pass and get some fresh blood to flow in my body as the clock struck 12.

Now, when I look back and think as people keep on asking me about my New Year eve celebrations. I feel I just did nothing, but again managed to do work, infact more than what I work in office.

Sunday, I had to make a quick visit to Bombay for Chinu’s engagement. The dejavu took me three years down my memory lane. I and Koko had to skip our dinner as I had to catch a bus back. That entire day too turned out to be hectic.

So finally, what I again did was a lot of work. Today as I sit in my office, I feel that the week days are better and I can actually relax more during these days than my weekends. So, that meant I would be working for two days and enjoying and relaxing for five days. But this can never be possible. So I know now that work is just a part of life and I have to learn to enjoy in whatever form it comes.

So I wish you all one more Happy New Working Year !!!
