Coffee tastes better when someone makes it for you.
Pant pockets should be checked before tossing them into the washing machine.
Don't boil milk and watch your favourite program on TV at the same time.
The fabric you least expect to lose colour will, soiling all your whites, so don’t take any chances.
It is difficult to come up with innovative breakfast/snack ideas everyday.
Upma tastes a lot better when you’ve made it yourself.
Electricity costs this much?!! Why is that light on? Is someone in the room?
Work has a way of spreading itself, so don’t look surprised when housewives say they are busy all through the day.
Jars of sugar and spices don’t replenish themselves, someone fills them up.
You do the housework just the way your mom did it, even though you never did it her way when she was teaching you.
There’s great joy in making sacrifices, big and small.
And finally, being a housewife isn’t half as bad as you’d imagined.

Murali, can I say, "There will come a time when you will agree with the statement" ? :)
There is nothing in the world called indolence, is there?.

To answer your question, assuming that I interpreted it right -
Does being jobless make a person lazy? I don't think so....being laidback or active is one's basic nature and has nothing to do with their occupation/lack of it. Even if it does, it's better to enjoy the free time rather than crib about it; especially when you know it's not going to last forever.
Let me archives this. Few years down the line, my wife might require this......
Hehe :)) Sure. :)
He he nice post...
Now I know how our moms do this every day and were pretty good at it too.
Lastly being housewife isnt bad at all, its just they way we think, most people think its an easy job...
well thats not the case....!!!!!!!

Upma tastes a lot better when you’ve made it yourself. ---very true. I never touched upma when my mom made and now I have it atleast once in a week :))
hi,
very practical observations. I would say these are applicable to anybody who starts to stay away from home after spending a major part of life with their family
pvs: Right. :) We not only have it ourselves but we also say the same things our moms said to others to convince them to have it too!! This is what my hubby gets to hear on the rare occasions when I make Upma, "Come on, it's not that bad....in fact Upma has never tasted beter!" :))
Vasanthi: Thanks Vasanthi! :)
Balaji: Hey you know what...I did want to call it "Some things you learn when you live away from parents"....but dropped the idea, since it was too long for a title. :) So, yeah it's true for anyone who's moved out and is living on his/her own.
if its your pocket...dont check it. trust me you'll surprise yourself a couple of months later..washed pockets,dried notes...great piggy banks
hehe :)) good point jasmeen!
hey gowri..real nice one..though i guess we follow most of it now only.. :-)

Nice list Gowri. Loved it
Thanks Uma, glad you liked it! :)
Deepthi, right. Good girls that we are...! ;)
Not only Upma. When we are on our own and there is no alternative to our cooking, we will relish the taste of anything that we cook. Once we are seasoned, then we become good at it and others too enjoy.
This is from my own experience of cooking for the past 7 years in US. Before coming here I never cooked in India. Now I can say I am a better cook than my wife! Can I say that? May be. I hope she will not read this comment. My thoughts on this post.
It was a nice read.
Thanks.
Thanks KM but I really hope ur wife doesn't read this!!! :))
We can only hope and hope what keeps us alive!
Upma?! Please.....thats a no no! Substitute it with kesari baath, please with almonds, pista, cashew, dry grapes etc...yummy! :))
Ravi, kesari baath tastes good anyway, it's upma that's a problem for everybody!!! :))
Hey seriously.. i prefer sitting at home.. but being a home maker + a working wife is kind of difficult!!!!!
u are right!!!!!!! sacrifices are necesary!!!!
Good JoB! :)
I'm usually not a fan of Gehry's work, but this is an exception. Using wood as a wrapper imitating structure is not only novel, but ties the space down through the use of a consistent, inviting, and non-distracting material palette. Perhaps Gehry is more suited to small-scale projects Laptop battery.
