ghar exchange

sometime back there was a programme on sony tv called maa exchange. it was a rehash of some american reality show, only this one was changed according to our indian tastes. it tried to dismiss the myth that every lady of a house has....... " i am irreplacable and the home cannot run as efficiently without me"
i found the show not very appealing and totally forgot about it. in the mean time i got busy with my life in kolkata in a hostel with my hubby and bacchu. staying in a hostel has its charm as well as a whole load of disadvantages too!! but all in all it was quite an eventful journey. ofcourse during our stint in kolkata we gave up our apartment on rent fully furnished and all!! lucky tennants, i said! during the entire year that i was away, i came back to visit our home only once and that too coz it was realy required to go there. i would feel bad a number of times, even sulk, thinking how the other lady must have maintained my home?? i hope she must have kept it as clean as i did. i hope she hasnt spoilt too many things!! i hope all my equipments are still running properly and on and on. then it was time for us to come back and start staying back in our home sweet home!!
should i say i was shocked??? my home was sparkling clean!! not a speck of dust anywhere!! the cupboards, the fans the tubelights were all clean!! too much cleanliness i thought, she must hve done some damage somewhere....... i went aorund the house and tried to find faults....... but i couldnt find any!! infact she had made a few changes in the arrangement of furniture so that it would make my home more spacious...... why didnt i think about it this way?? i was wondering and i praisd her for the way she had kept the home..... she said ... " dont get me wrong but for you, your home was perfect!! you saw no fault with it... but i did!! i just tried to bring in those changes. i hope u are happy with it"
having heard about horror stories of how tennats leave the home in a mess, i must say i was really lucky!! and ya lucky to have to exchange my home with a lovely lady who looked after my home with a lot of genuine care!!
