Packing and unpacking.... Living in the suitcase.

Tweet

That's the picture of the suitcase that I packed and unpacked on this weekend. I didn't go for any vacation. I have not stepped out of the city since the pandemic. Curse the virus. While deleting the photos from my phone I came across this one. So, I thought of making a post about it before deleting it. My daughter clicked it as she found it funny that I was carrying a suitcase to work. She thought that I looked like those aur hostesses going to work I had to go to physical school on Saturday to setup a few things. And I had a lot to carry to work... files, folders, activities, materials etc. And on the way back, I had to carry some books from library and also some course material from my yonger daughter's school. So, instead of carrying few bags, I carried this suitcase to be kind to my back. And it was a wise decision. Many of my colleagues were impressed Back to home, I unpacked the things in the evening and did the packing for my husband. He left for Mumbai on Sunday morning to see his brother in law. I had mentioned about the bypass surgery of his brother in law. He developed some complications ( on expected lines and nothing serious) post surgery and his stay in hospital was extended. My husband just called to say that he is all okay now and they are going through the discharge procedure at the hospital Now, my husband has booked a ticket to go and meet his mother tomorrow and he should be back here on Friday night. I always said that my husband lived in the suitcase. That was the case before the pandemic when his business trips made him go round the country and the world. On an average, he traveled for at least 7 days in a month. And I always was getting his suitcase ready. Now, it has been more than an year that he has gone for any official business trip. And maybe for the first time in last two years since 1996, he has not stepped out of India in a year time. That's a new record. I never liked packing for his tour as I thought that his busy schedule makes him miss a lot with me and the girls. But I was always overjoyed by the packing that we did for our vacations. I miss those days. I hope that the virus scare is soon gone and I get to pack my suitcase again for some fun Moving on to my notifications. Catch you later Enjoy your time in your mylot corner
