Pretty Blue Auto and Life Math.

Well, you see an auto,An EV auto to be specific.All I see is a pretty Blue Auto.For instance,you open any wardrobe,blue holds the major share.Blue looks good everywhere and in anything.I had a friend (I still have her by my side) who would purchase only blue dresses.I like all the Colours but I get good dresses in blue ,IDK .
So yesterday I had gone to visit a preschool for my son and I planned to visit Jaynagar post that to meet a friend of mine.Guess what ,who arrived via Rapido service? This pretty little auto.
I had travelled on EV auto Rikshas in Amritsar.But they had a pathetic condition and not able to climb a flyover too.
My dad got an Ather and my mind started calculating on how much returns this guy might be getting by choosing EV over natural gas one.
Auto ride was smooth and I was travelling from Dollars colony to Jaynagar and I don't have to tell much about the nature there.
I was a bit sleepy post eating heavy paneer parathas, but my mind couldn't stop appreciating me from noticing little joys,little good things.
As said this is a good example of "Safar khoobsurat hai ,Manzil se bhi".
Just imagine the amount of attention it might be getting in middle of other Green Yellow ones on road.
So Navyaa ,Life is beautiful too if you let it experience 😅
Now shifting to other topic of how I am doomed in not saving enough.
I am someone who does not spend much by going out to fancy cafes or investing in dresses as I feel I can ace with my existing dresses and can pull off the style 
Also I don't hang out with girlies who are much into cafe hopping and declaring it on their social media.
I genuinely like going to cafes to really have food and with someone whom I like(this too not frequently).
I don't travel as I have a toddler with me and with all sad reality it has to be me who has to handle this gymnastic baby.
Then where is all my money going?
Aren't there people out living a better life than me with 20k salary?
Where And what I am doing wrong??
Answer is simple.Blinkit and Rapido(Not just these two ,but other apps of similar kind)
You know,you never know where it all goes.
Since my cook comes,Swiggy is out of interest and it's been months that I ordered.
Rapido I cannot avoid as I am not  confident enough to learn a 2/4 wheeler.
I don't expect my dear Kartik Agni to take me out every where.
So I can't avoid much here even if I choose auto service I end up spending much.
But Instant Delivery apps,I can.
So I have uninstalled it and made a plan of physicallly getting stuffs weekly once in a wired bag so that I can be sure of how much I am spending.
It is a good way to save I believe and I was doing this before too.But that one week moment I end up ordering and that's how technology has lured us.
I have set a budget of 500 rs per week for veggies and food I don't think I will pass fully .
I hated maths in PUC and now I hate life maths even more.I mean always I have to think of managing it.Your Salary does not matter.I  am here with almost the double Salary of what I started and my financial condition is no more better.So I think everyone of our generation is going through this dilema.
I will have to see what will be the % of success from this Monday.
I will meet you with some other rant in next blog,I am in a rush to go and eat Pav Bhaji at Shilpa and Chinmay's place as a mid morning snack now.

Dear Diary 27.04.25

Here I am ,again after a week!Guess what,Appu(My son) has been better in terms not being clingy and furious all the time.So a brownie point for that and on a good note to start with. This week I and my brother went for a family function and I got a proper picture after buying this phone.I prefer cotton dresses here even if it is a marriage. So this was just before going out.I am not a shopaholic and I advise sustainable clothing.I also liked a tamarind jaggery dish prepared at the function.Also the wise old man is back here, hehe!. Andd,I have become a slow reader in search of new flexible job.I mean I work for a core company and a coder.But somehow I want to escape from going to office.. We resumed playing badminton again this week:) One of our garden flowers stem broke suddenly after blooming fully.I felt sad, like you be in your limelight and suddenly boom! Something happened. Nowadays since it's cloudy all the time, evening skies are such a nice treat I ...

Dear Diary -25.05.25

Uff,Rainy week!I am listening to "Yamune Aatrile" from Thalapathi which ended up me in tears. Such a practical application of Mahabharata.I suddenly remembered it and snatched back my earbuds from my Mommy dearest. I was reading a book by V S khandekar which was translated from Marathi to Kannada called "Krounchavadhe".You know it means, a hunter had killed the male Krounchpakshi when it was with his partner.I am liking the writing style though and ordered one more book by the same author. I made my son wear his sweater and hat which his dad had got for him from Nainital.But the little guy seems to like the no sweater policy.He cried till I removed it. Last Sunday, I had been to my dad's native where I was born.I felt like crying after visiting there as I had spent my major portion of the life there in one place.My cousins and chikkamma prepared nice Pav Bhaji for us.I had to manage by spending equal times at both the houses(My Ajji and S...

So here I am with one more weekly update.My husband is in Varanasi and he lived my dream.He was a little kind enough to try the food I suggested and places I suggested.It's raining there and his flight is delayed it seems. This week was a roller coaster emotionally.I had a big fight with my husband and he sent me a surprise Pizza.I was never a pizza lover,but I craved for it in my pregnancy. Also,this week marked the death of our dog,Gundu one who changed my perspective on dogs itself.He would accompany me for walks.Its sad that he was attacked by a leopard.Idk,what forest department is doing.I mean only pigs were of a concern here. Nvm,they got a replica of  Gundu now,My mava said it must be his child only as he looks the same and from the same place where our Gundu would go for his night walks.Wherever you are,I hope you are happy Gundu. also,gold rates are sky high.For a small piece ,say tiny enough,for that it costed me 700 rs. I went to ajjanmane as my ...
