the title is just keeping in mind the atmosphere and the time... and it has not got much to do with the post.... although now that i have this title i might as well make it appropriate!!
so the post is now about the way i spent the 1st day of 2008!!!
what a day it was... i took a peak into my life as it will be after i retire... not just retire from work to do something i really like... but retire for good...
woke up around 8.30 (very early by my holiday standards)... dropped mom to work (when i retire i might be dropping my kids to school ... if they are still in school that is ;-) )came back got dressed for a day of nothingness.... had breakfast.....
after that for more than an hour i just lay in the sun on an easy chair (almost a beach chair actually) reading a newspaper... then for the next hour i must have read another newspaper ;-) and so i spent a few hours reading various newspapers... all of them talked about new year bashes new year resolutions and new year plans and what not... it felt as if for once the newspapers had something to talk about and they were overwhelmed with the fact and just putting everything into print... without giving much thought to editing....
actually it wasnt that bad... but yeah it was too much of 'new year/2008' ... then i just lay in the sun doing nothing.... then i started reading a book... had lunch (complete with my fav winters dessert) then continued reading the book... still in the sun..... talked to a few friends in between... was too lazy to call any... just talked to those who were nice enough to call me ;-)
then after a few hours of reading the book and travelling in the fantasy world i took a nap... a small one... woke up... went to pick up mom.... then we shopped... didnt find what i was looking for... so that was some 2 hours spent going to various shops with heating and then coming out to the biting cold and then going in again!!! i wonder that i am not sick with cold etc!!
came back home... had a good dinner... watched some sitcoms on TV and then went to sleep!!!!
what a day it was... lazing around and without that feeling u get if u spend the entire day lazing around in the room (and not the sun :-) )
They say the entire year is similar to what you do on new years.... how i hope this is true :-) !!
