Unexpected , short but happy break

Today we have off from school due to forcast of excess rains. For a change got up a little late, freshened with yoga, bhajans and chai, then spoke to a pal (read MIL) after long time, cooked, taught and now writing some more. Its already dark outside even if its just 5.47 PM. I miss summer's harsh sun at this time but its good.Its the first year that I am not liking this early day end. I guess maybe because the last summer we went for daily walks to the park. We found time to do grocery shopping than just lolling in bed. I enjoyed early day end in my earlier place, where I had a beautiful window at the access road side where I could see people walking by, cars passing, seasons change from spring (pollen rich sneeze inducing white flowers and later delicate shiny green bud like leaves), summers ( of dusty leaves and occasional showers) fall ( leaves deciding to commit collective harakiri) and winter ( naked trees anyone?). I enjoyed my breakfast, cuppas and reading there. I cold winter be damned but I would sit at the window marvelling soft gauzy snow flakes falling. I do miss that home sometimes that was smaller but easily cleaned, A big, lighted kitchen, a balcony overseeing a small stream where I would do visarjan. I learned and recognized many birds there...and so on... But its OK, change is good...I like now as well, where I have my own way of talking my way, which was not possible earlier. I can upload my writeups more, where I read them only myself but I like to put them somewhere, like an online diary. I have job(s) which are walking distance and are satisfying but I work 7 days a week and the day I get a holiday is a rare but almost lickable treat. One of the things I had decided this year again and hope to continue is stop procrastination. My next mission is making a quilt out of rags and quarters I have. maybe it will get ready till next winter. Who knows what will happen next year but I am sure I will fight to make it better than last year definitely. Now that the rambling needs to be shut off...time to hibernate the lappie and go back to real world.
