domesticated

so like i feel like ive been tamed for home use. there are just too many things to do around the house and still it doesn't seem like any progress is being made.

yesterday i finally managed to take out all my clothes out of suit cases , separate winter /summer ones, filled up the wardrobe and then put the suitcases, rather hid them in another cabinet. so now my room kinda looks like a room not a place where a explosion happened in cabinets and drawers which spilled all the clothes on the floor. I never knew i had too many clothes , and like im still wondering how the heck i managed to collect this many socks when i can never find a decent pair but now that i look at all of them it seems i have a hobby of collecting socks, one sock or a pair it doesn't matter, i collected em all.

In another news i broke 3 drill bits while trying to drill holes in the bathroom tiles to hand the shower curtains, now finally the curtains are up and the bathroom floor is less slippery after a shower, its still a mystery how i have survived not slipping till now.

kitchen, now that is one place which dosent seem to end with minor tasks, i have all the jars containing spices and salt and everythingy filled up and placed, powder milk and sugar jars are ok to go. the glasses and cups and plates are now all in their proper places. the fridge is populated enough to survive. and today i cleaned the sills and then i cleaned the stove itself, man that was some task. scrubbing is not too much fun
and like i have a separate viper for the kitchen and two sets of slippers that are solely dedicated for kitchen use ONLY and no other shoes are allowed in there, washing the tiles of the floor is not a fun idea every time someone decides to walk into the kitchen with shoes they were walking around outside in dirt or somethingy. My bro and a friend who visits often thinks im a freak. ( i now have slippers for home use as well and shoe rack is present near the entrance to change your outside shoes as soon as you get inside, btw all three washrooms have their own slippers and vipers too).

one of the book racks is assembled an the other is missing some screws need to buy some so that i can finally unpack the cartons containing the books and put em up. i need to sort out the dvds and put em in their racks as well.

i still have to find myself an electrician to fix all the switches and lights and fans in the apartment. i did what i could and fixed many of those but some of them are too complex for me to handle without getting electrocuted a bit

and seriously if anyone knows someone who does soundproofing of the rooms , i deperately require their services, all the traffic and people start talking yelling early morning and then there is constant noise of contruction crew working right next building who start somethingy like 6am in the morning , and then sometimes at nights the gaurds outside decide to sing , yes really sing.

and i yet i have buy furniture for my bedroom , im still using the sofa-cum-bed , which is so far doing a good job but then that is another thingy on the to do list , along with the air conditioners and moving my old air-con from Lahore and getting it installed here as well , it would be summer in just a blink of an eye.

and the light will be gone in 10 mins, i better finish up here and try to get some sleep before they wake me up early morning again, i swear i soooooooooo cant get up in mornings

By the end of this post, I've lost count of so many slippers you bought. The shopkeeper must've been utterly delighted - 'm sure.


@mayG: believe me saleeqamand guys can also be a nuisance to the women in family :P

i do not believe in monopolizing the chappal walas, al chappals come from different vendors over different period of time,

so like just for knowledge sake there be 7 pairs in total

and Slaeeqamand ? ha, if you tell that to someone n my family they will cdie laughing, the misconceptions
