Make something special for breakfast every day, except for Sunday of-course! Replace my plastic spice container with glass jars. They are easier to clean and look classic! Gardening! A long pending task to be taken up before the rains bid Au dieu. Buy a new Shoe rack. Some new shirts for hubby and an ethnic dress for my little girl Is it too much to do? nah... :)

" When Someone treats you like an option, help them narrow their choices by removing yourself from the equation ." We (that includes me too!) must always remember that, anyone who ask us help to perform a certain task that is routinely done by them; then that request of help is not because they are lazy or cannot handle the task. However its simply because they want to ease their burden & stress. In such a scenario, especially ones loved by them shouldn't make it a point to make them feel that by easying their burden we are doing a favor on them.

So many things happen for Good in our life and we don't realize it at all!

I came across this post and what a lovely insight was it to find this at this phase of my life: Here are some things yelling does teach our children: 1. It teaches them that I don't mean what I say until I yell. 2. It teaches them to yell when they want something accomplished. 3. Yelling teaches kids to ignore polite requests. 4. It teaches them that yelling is an appropriate way to relieve stress. 5. Sooner or later, the kids will ignore the yelling and when we really need their quick attention (emergency, danger, etc.) we won't be able to get it. 6. Yelling teaches kids that they don't deserve the respect of being talked to calmly. 7. It teaches our children to respond out of fear. pleas do read through the entire post here ! I'll surelly keep these pints in my mind wile dealing with my liltle one .

I have realized that there are certain on priority tasks to be taken up in my house before our new little member comes in and a family gathering for an important occasion due to happen. Though There is ample amount of time for both the events, I don't want to have final moment rush and a big financial bill, hence slowly and steady I shall accomplish the following: Updating on all the framed photographs in the house.  Selecting some new pics for the frames. Buying new bed spreads for all my beds. New faux flowers for my vases. New Sofa spreads & table spreads. New Floor mats. Repair of Certain Furniture. Re-arrangement of certain area to make more space. Some nice colored lite curtains. And finally my personal touch in all my rooms .

Now with my nesting instinct at its peak, I am full on with deep cleaning. And the after feeling of this cleaning is awesome! Yesterday while leaving home in hurry, I tried hard to find my cell and my door key, then at the door, I saw some dust peeping through my glass shelf. I hadn't realized that, i made a mental note about all this event; however, when I was back I unintentionally unpacked and organized my hand bag and my little pouches: 1st one carries my little makeup and face wash, 2nd one has my keys,sanitizer and wipes, while the 3rd has some cash and Id cards (I am taking tips from the author of "http://charmingthebirdsfromthetrees.blogspot.in/").  Later while my bath water warmed up, I had a nice cleaning session of my shelf and rearranged my shelf belongings. And wow, was I not beaming with joy!

Thank you to wonderful people, who took time to show that they remember me in their course of life!!!
