It’s me – the person who probably knows you the best.
You will be 30 soon-yes, it’s more than a year away but a little advance planning has never hurt. It’s also the end of the year when you receive your annual assessment.
You started off the year well – you lost weight, had a healthy glow, the two of you made your home look so pretty. everything was organized. This looked like the year of growing up – didn’t it?
But life is never going to keep it that easy is it? There has to be the But
There came the change at the work place and the words “work life balance” seemed as mythical as the gardens of Babylon. Exercise was screwed up, the kilos piled on, you were exhausted, the organized life took a toss. and it’s all back to square one. The good work done “for you” was wiped off!
But i am so proud of how hard you worked this year – especially in the second half and it has been tough. I was there with you when u shed tears in the bathroom at being denied 12 days leave instead of 10 days! I was there when you were expected to work despite being unwell and there when you were given all the useless gyaan by so-called wise people. I was there when he called up every 15 mins to follow-up on your work.
But boy am i proud of how well you handled him, am i proud of how hard you have worked this year…But babe u need to take a decision and you know it.
So before you turn 30 – yes, it is more than a year away…but then again a little advance planning has never hurt anyone
So here you are – bringing in your last year in the twenties and i am rooting for you girl!
Love Me
p.s. This is my fifty post – and i thought i should dedicate it to Me!!! Thank you guys for making blogging such a fun experience for me

Oh i’ve been waiting to see an update on your page. What rational planning. Totally agree with you on all your points. They’re essential and applicable to most of us π
The work life balance bit kinda scared me a bit. Every time we consider moving back to India, we retract cos of this very reason. The work culture fully exploits you π¦ But like you siad, its also about priorities and choices! Good luck π
Yup the work life balance thing in India is changing but yay…sometimes u get stuck with Idiots like mine and then you have to do brave things like tell them to get lost! π
