Routine stuff

Well past few months have just whizzed by. In between I had bouts of cold , cough & the weather seemed to get worse each day. Finally we are seeing some long lasting sunshine. It has never been this cold in our city before. We had the coldest day in 42 years (or was it 45?) Someone staying in other part of the country might be wondering 'what's the big deal?' coz the coldest it got was about 8.4 degrees !! Thats all.

Anyhow I really don't like cold weather bcoz of the stiffness & skin trouble. Moreover coz of the elevated cpk, my doc has told to stop exercising for a while & see if it changes things. Well to be frank I'm feeling really bloated now. I do walk a bit. Since the walk from the bus stop to home is about 20 mins or so. But I miss the exercise routine.

I was so immersed in work that I have totally forgotten about the final semester. Results of previous sem might be out anytime. I hope I can complete this one last test successfully. Then maybe I can really concentrate on one thing at a time. Health first then work. Work is really good. I really like what I'm doing. But I might look for better job opportunities , maybe little closer to home. Currently I'm traveling about 3 hours a day. Which is okay by todays standard. With all the traffic in city. But I could really get some time for myself in future if I can work closer to home.

Health wise its the same thing. I'm continuing the homeopathy treatment. But haven't really done a blood test lately. I'm thinking I will do it only after 15 April or so. My project is upto March 31. Then have a month / & a half break & will rejoin in may end / june.

Vision hasn't really changed at all. So not much improvement there. Also I broke my specs this week. Not that it is affecting any activities. But I HAVE to get new ones on saturday itself. Don't think will move on sunday!

Andd finally about vday...was at home!! lol ... On a more serious note , my mum wasn't feeling well since the minor operation. So was looking after her ,since dad had to rush to office for 2 days. Did get to eat loads of chocolates today at office !! Some1 had kept some empty wrappers too!! Had to sing a song & laugh in 5 different ways as a punishment since I wasn't in the Hawaiian dress code today!!!


Ciao n Peace.
