Changes that marriage has brought in me

Before Sept 16th 2007
----------------------

Life used to be carefree.I used to be a happy go lucky gal roaming with my frnds, spending quality time with parents.No responsibilities at home also.Everything came to my place just when I ask for at home.Pampered spoiled brat I used to be :-)
Many might not believe,but Kausthu knows the transformation I have underwent (and its still happening).Right from making bed,to packing lunch ...very few days I used to do all this.Still,I was given atmost importance ,My opinions were highly respected and accepted (else I wouldnt ve married kausthu na :-) ).Everybody used to be surprised to see de way my dad used to pamper me in this age :-)
All this said,it does not been that I do not know my manners.I have been brought up well,know how to treat people and respect all...Thanks to my parents.


After Sept 16th 2007
---------------------

Before marriage I used to be so scared about my married life and how well I would adjust with all.
The transition was smooth...thanks to my in laws.They made me feel a home.In fact I am more pampered here :-)

Then in April 2008 we(myself & kausthu) shifted to our new place.
The very first thought of taking all the resposibilities scared us.
Ofcourse my inlaws are nearby and they will be there to help us out.Still right from preparing food before going to office till locking the doors properly...all needed additional attention!!!
Day one was tragic...Food didnt turn out prply..but kausthu was encouraging...
Then slowly a week went by and we got adapted to our new home.
We invited our parents for lunch and they were proud of us!!!
Months went by and we celebrated varalakhmi veradam,navarathiri at our new place.
Relatives were happy to see us as a responsible couple.
Certain things still go out of our way..Few months we spend very lavishly and then feel guilty for not making any savings for that month.
Still we are in the learning process.Both of us share the responsibilities and triffle fights might occur if one does not finish his/her work.
Married life is not so easy...Though ours was love marriage,we discovered more about each other's likes and dislikes only after marriage.
Every day is new and has lot of surprises in store.
I know this is just a day to day happening but I have not seen it written anywhere.
Its a nice feeling to write
