12 pm: The house is buzzing with people, everyone is busy prepping for the haldi kumkum festival at home. Every day we have a different celebration.
1.40 pm: Ladies, ladies, more ladies! Everywhere I look I can only see ladies posing. Yes, I am their official photographer. 2.50 pm: Inspite of eating a scrumptious meal, I wonder why I am getting hunger pangs. Is it a post-lunch syndrome? I need to control my tastebuds.
3.50 pm: Can't believe I have to go for a meeting. Couldn't avoid it but have kept it close to home so can hop back soon.
4.30pm: Rushing back home... have my YouTube channel shoot. They are covering the aarti and puja. It's awesome to have my own channel and speak my mind on it!
5.15 pm: Most of the ladies are visiting pandals. Tina and I plan to watch a film.
7.15 pm: My sister, brother-in-law and my nephews visiting tomorrow. Prepping to welcome them.
8.15 pm: Evening aarti delayed, thanks to the ladies. Time to visit some pandals and friends' houses for darshan.
10.30 pm: Had a blast. Dinner got too heavy though.
11.30 pm: Back home! Everyone is tired but great to see them in action.
1 am: Sitting with family and discussing the pandals I visited. Wonder where they get so many different ideas from, each year. I picked up a few ideas for my home Ganeshji for next year!
