Allhumdolillah! I am at a much better place since my last post with series of lab tests, utlrasounds, a mammogram and some other really scary tests, and a gut wrenching anxiety of results. I am doing well thankfully everything was clear except low iron levels with vitamin d3 deficiency. These deficiencies are now on their way to recovery. It is worth noting that I have been struggling with intense brain and physical fatigue since 2019 but not a single doctor was able to identify my problem. Once somebody is diagnosed with depression or anxiety then every health issue they complain about is looked from the psychological lenses. Nobody asked me to check iron, vitamin b12 or vitamin d3 deficiencies even my mum who is a dermatologist always assured me that I am fine and this weakness is just a phase. It was a phase alright, it engulfed almost 8 years of my life pushed back my career and research ambitions. This is not the case alone with me but there are many people who silentl...
There are plans at home to paint
few portions and some rooms which are showing signs of wear and tear. However,
my main concern is my room’s setting, though it’s a nice sized room but it
feels a bit cramped and small. The other rooms in the house which are of the
same size looks far more spacious and lite as compared to mine.
My room is more like a studio
apartment, everyone even the guests choose to sit in my room rather than in the
living room. But I feel something is not right about it, I don’t know exactly
what but there is something that I need to change.
Everything in the room is crucial
for me, and there is nothing that I can discard. I like Zen minimalist approach
where you have only what you really need. Having said that, my requisite items
are now over flowing into other rooms as well. Most of my personal property
consists of books and now there is art material, canvases which needs to
adjusted as well.
When I shifted my office to home
I took over my Mom’s music room where she had her dearest collection of classic
music, magazines and pictures. Now I have turned it into my office and I feel
guilty for my take over because that was the only place where she loves to be.
But the good part is that I feel it is only temporary and soon it will shift to
where it should really be.
So actually I need two rooms one
being my personal room and the other room that should be used both as office
and my ultra mini gym. I saw gym-cum-office at a show on BBC lifestyle, they
had a very tiny room which the designer utilized to the maximum by
intelligently dividing it into an office with adjoining exercise area.
I think I need sensible interior
designing solutions because its not merely about the size of the room but how
wisely you utilize your available resources. I wish I would hire the services
of the same British interior designer. Ha!! But I do believe in miracles….
Many affections.
