**Le Weekend**

"It's friday, Biryani Day!" excitedly said to myself while packing lunch for my elder one for school. It wasn't too long when I heard a cry. "Ah, not again" It was my little one, I just put him to sleep, but his sleep regression period has started and he doesn't take long naps now. I was already very late because my house help had to attend a wedding back in her village, so had to do all on my own. I quickly got my peanut (my daughter) ready and asked her to help me calm our nugget (my son) down. While we were waiting for the school bus, I made F(my husband)'s breakfast ready too.

Bye Mama! Bye Love! Enjoy your day As soon as she was gone I quickly got nugget to sleep again and made myself a cup of tea. "Ah, what a hectic start to this weekend, Hope rest goes well! thought to myself. AND IT ACTUALLY DID GO REALLY WELL.

F came back home early, I ordered Biryani from the mess. I really wanted to make at home but no house help, mummy's wrist (a very painful one) and nugget's sleep regression altogether didn't let me do it. After lunch, we all took a nap. After that, we went to the park. I was craving for my favorite ice cream, so before dinner we went out for a long drive followed by a yummiest ice cream session. Came back home, made sandwiches and had our dinner.

There were so many activities planned for Saturday. We had to visit our friends who had just lost their father. Coming back from their home, we were so confused about the dinner. F suddenly decided to have dinner somewhere out. I picked some nugget's stuff from home, got stationery for peanut's project and had to stop at a fuel station. We had to make few stops before reaching the restaurant, wasted good 2 hours. Well, that made us more hungry!

The restaurant that we chose was nothing so fancy. But it served the purpose. It was on a highway and outdoor plus offered really good food at nominal rates. we ordered half barbeque platter, which was too much for us and had to get half packed for home. The beautiful weather that day added a feather in the cap.

After the joyous two days comes the day where you have to get all the pending work done to start the busy week ahead. the long awaited pile of laundry got washed, uniforms got ironed, vegetables cut and put in zip lock bags in the refrigerator and cutlets were made. Peanut was told by her teacher to make a frame and we were asked to help them out (it was other way around actually), made a frame out of cardboard and different items, enjoyed doing it. For dinner, I was craving lasagna so badly, so made one. Luckily, it tasted so gooood.

After all this, when I lied down at night it felt so good, only then I realized I was so tired. Though thinking that weekend is over made me feel miserable but this is life, this is how it goes on! At the end we should just thank God, for everything that we have in life. Ups and downs are a part of life but don't let them take away your smile.
