Mylotting from airport

Happy morning from this side of the planet. It's 7:10 AM as I write this post, sitting at airport. I will board the flight in another hour. I would like to spend some time here and make the very first post of the month.
June would be a rather slow month here for me. I am traveling for ten days starting today. It's a solo travel. My husband and younger daughter could not join me because of their busy schedule. So, it's three family functions in ten days that I would be attending and then be back.
My elder daughter will join me on the last function that is next Monday. Her semester break is there starting coming weekend and she is coming home for three weeks . She will attend one of the functions with me.
All the three functions are from my husband's side and I am the only representative from our side . It's one marriage, one thread ceremony and a grand 75 years of wedding anniversary for one of his uncle and aunt.
I will be back after ten days.
The work week for new academic year begins for teaching staff from tomorrow. But I did go this whole week to the school and finished all that I had to do before we welcome children on 14th June.. Glad that the assistant teacher didn't mind coming and helping. Now, she can also enjoy this week and need not come till the school actually opens for children.
Well, I was away from myLot ( or not much active) in the last few days. Going back to work, shopping for gifts, packing, getting passport renewed..the week was hectic. But at least, I could peep in and answer the notifications.. I would try to do that regularly till I actually get some breathing space and free time to be at myLot at luxury.
Take care. Have a good time in your corner. Stay healthy and happy. Hope you all have a great month of June

I am already exhausted with all the getting ready list in the last week along with going back to work. Teachers have to start before the children come back .
Now, I am catching up with some breath at airport while mylotting.
The couple are in their late nineties. It's a rare milestone and needs a huge celebration. They have started with all age related issues but it's heartening to see the warmth with which they welcome. These people have lived simple life enjoying every little thing and that's reflected in their loving nature. My husband is very fond of his uncle and aunt. Sadly he has to miss. Good that at least my elder daughter would be able to attend that.
I am looking forward to all fun. Any event from my husband's side has a lot of fun. It's full Masti kinds

You are quite busy with three events that you would attend and on top of that your school workload. I hope you get to have a wonderful time at these events, especially the 75-year anniversary, wow. that's "love eternal".
Take care and stay healthy and happy too. Have fun in the three family events.

That was one even that we didn't want to miss. My husband and younger daughter have to miss it. We don't get to see such long marriage often and that is a rare milestone..They are lovely couple, now in their late nineties. Now, they are suffering from all age related issues, but are very warm when you meet them. Glad that at least my elder daughter will join the function.
Hope you are doing good

Yes, Rebecca. That's keeping me away from myLot. Two of the functions are over. I am having a good time with friends and family, whom I have met after a long time
Now, I am looking forward to the last one and the most important one of all...75 years of wedding celebration.

Thank you Valerie. The two functions are over. We are waiting for the 75 years celebration on Monday and that's the most special one.. 75 years of marriage is a rare milestone. Very few lucky ones get to be there.

Thank you Carol. Having a good time. It's not a big and loud one. It's simple and low key, the dinner party being hosted in their home garden. But definitely would be a special one with all loved ones around. It's a rare milestone. Very few lucky ones get to celebrate their 75 years of wedding.

It was a great time with friends and family. But it got too overwhelming too towards the end and I wanted to be back to the peaceful home.

I agree that it's a rarest milestone to be achieved. They are in late nineties.
My husband had his clients visiting from the US and on 5th July, he has to leave with that team to the US for two weeks training. He couldn't miss that. They are his favourite uncle and aunt. He would have not missed it otherwise. Also, one of us had to stay back as my younger daughter has class 12 going on with some tests.
Good that my elder daughter will join me for their wedding anniversary.

That is a lot of update!
I hope that you enjoy your trip and the functions.
It is hot in Delhi but we are getting occasional rains like what we had today morning.
I took a few days off recently.
Had some good rest.
One not so good bit is about my home laptop needing a major repair which I have to postpone due to budget constraints.
I need to figure out how to save more in the coming months for that.
Sites like Mylot and others on mobile are a bit tedious so I prefer laptop, especially for longer texts.
But well, will have to wait.
And carry water bottles with you wherever you go in this heat.
Have a nice Sunday!
