a landmark day
Posted by anasimtiaz on Jul 17, 2010 in | 13 comments
- After having “clean (and vacuum) the apartment” for well over a month on my todo list, I am proudly striking it out today.
- Running perilously short on food supplies for 10 days…I finally stocked up for atleast a month today. My refrigerator was empty except for a bottle of milk (and two eggs, which will possibly remain there for another month or two)
- My bath’s shower head was broken 3 weeks ago. I unscrewed it, kept it aside and was using the water directly from the pipe without shower head for bath. Not fun, I know. And yes, I bought new one today. (side note: this happened with me back in Pakistan as well, and I didn’t replace it for 8 months)
- Not only my refrigerator was empty…I had no sugar for past three days so all tea/coffee were consumed unsweetened. Got a jar today.
- I haven’t registered with a GP (doctor) since moving in this area…been over 6 months. Woke up early to do this as well…but when I went there they told me they don’t register on weekends. Not sure when am I going to make a second attempt.
- Also, I changed the bedsheets today..after..err..I don’t know the last time I did that
So yes, a very once-in-a-lifetime kind of a day which I hope never comes again

Bet that feels good
You should do it more often!!!!
If I do it regularly then I won’t have so much to do at once
This kind of a day should occur everyday
But it feels good doesn’t it? To see everything back in order?
Everyday? LOL! Ab next year
You changed the bedsheets today after you don’t know how long.. that LITERALLY made me shudder!
Thats why they say, “Beta shaadi krlo
” ROFL!

Hello Anas;
This post reminds me of ” Bla..Blah by Siras”.BTWay why don’t u post pictures of ur room naming “before” and “after”(it would be a great idea…;-)
just dropped here through a search engine and couldn’t stop myself from commenting.
Welcome to my blog
Because posting pictures of ‘before’ will be a bit too much for the readers
loll… for sure.I was expecting a bit late reply…from the buzy buzy boy..but there u r:-))
Looking forward to your another ‘landmark day’…eh.
