Finally, the long weekend was over, I woke up around 8 something in the morning in spite of the sleepless night. After all, work takes the deserving priority for the sense of accomplishment it gives. I started my day with usual core workouts and breakfast. Since I had a long list of items in my To-Do list for the day, it was quite packed. Yet managed to make some Dhall rice and eggs for lunch.
The tiredness from the previous night took a toll on me, that I could barely stay up after lunch. So I had to set an alarm for 15 minutes to take a power nap. I am not an alarm person usually, that I even unwire completely before I go to bed. I always make a point to wake up for the noise of screeching birds or for the sunlight that gives me a taste of the heat of the day. But noon nap on a working day is not usually me, so I had to set the alarm for fifteen minutes as I had a call in 30 minutes. As I woke up, I prepared myself a cup of espresso before I joined the call.
There were multiple items on my plate that I managed to write off efficiently. So there was a feeling of accomplishment for the day. I finished my work around 9:15 PM. I made some time to prepare my banana dosas for dinner as I did not want to stay awake in hunger that cost me the whole night’s sleep of the previous day. I rang and spoke to my family around 9:20 PM. I did not mess with myself staring at my computer screen anymore, so I unwired myself and went to bed early. Most importantly, I slept sound until 9:30 in the morning today.
“Mistakes from the past are lessons for the present and experiences for the future…”
With today, the 21 days comes to the end, but not the lockdown. Here the government has extended the lockdown for another 19 days until the 3rd of May. I hope everyone stays safe and healthy. Take care folks!
