Hidden Gems

So, its 8th day of self quarantine.

I have not really stayed for long time at my in laws place. I used to stay for short number of days and next time I am there, I would have forgotten which switch is for what 😊

Now that I am confined to the floor, and is going to be here for quite some time, I am considering setting up my cozy corner here. And I found the perfect place. It is a balcony where all the junk of the house is placed. Its like our own room-of-requirement 😂. 

Since I cannot  help out in kitchen or other chores, I decided to clean this place up. The book shelf was dusty and old and I did dig up many interesting and unused gems! 

An old book shelf. I already have my reading list ready now. Aadujeevitham, Ramanan, Saphalamee Yatra. All of these are in moth eaten condition, but that shall not be a problem. I am sure i will find more books here that i can read unlike the book collection at my home in palakkad. There its mostly Karl Marx, Lenin, Stalin, Ho Chi Minh, Mao Tse Tung, EMS and AKG 😂 And i have had enough of that growing up. 

Now I have cleaned up a rocking chair for myself to chill with a book listening to rain and squirrells. And a mosquito coil. Ahh.. The mosquitoes here arebthe size of a bird unlike in bangalore. 

Made a small childens bookshelf out of some old wooden planks, sorted out childrens books from the collection and arranged it in the new bookshelf for my daughter and my niece to read. 

Found another wooden planks to do wood painting for my daughter. She needs some time pass. And yes some undisturbed time for myself 😊

Cleaned up the old treadmill which has begun rusting and yes! it is working. 

Now my cozy corner is almost set. Yay! 

I am kind of proud about my self to have achieved this much in this time 😊

Now all i need is a little discipline 😁 to keep up my mental and physical health.
