My dad used to daily wake early in the morning, go to temple and on the way back he used to casually visit couple of his friends..Ma Amma rojuu thidutundedi poddunna poddunna poyi aa uppar meeting lu endi ani..

Naku first lo artham ayyedi kaadu..later figured out, he used go to their house for reading news paper. Intlo eyinchukunentha budget ledu.. also sometimes free coffee also @3$%

my mom always cooked sambar..very rarely pappu or koora..endukante monthly budget was not enough for kandipappu or oil for fry.  Also, Koora will need lot of veggie, ade amount tho you can make sambar for whole family for 2-3 days.

 

Ivi chala common, but anyways saying..

1) naaku tight ayina shirts/pants naa tammuduki poyevi 

2) Chirigi poyina banians illu tudicheki (mopping floor etc.,)

Our house had only 1 room and 1 kitchen (of course bathroom separate). We are 3 siblings and our parents, all used to be in that same room. Intlo chadavadaniki disturbance ani, near by temple ki velli chaduvukune vanni..

Most of my life I spent in that temple only. It was 500 yrs old temple and was very huge. We used to play cricket, 7 stones in that temple only. Mornings/evenings prasadam pedithe tinadam.  It's almost like my home.

And whatever little time temple is closed, I used to spend in Sakhaa Grandhalayam, reading all sorts of Telugu books, stories, literature...

God...I want that life back, I was so innocent and naive that the lack of money never bothered me. I was just simply oblivious. Luckily I never compared myself with others. I sort of took it for granted that some people are rich and some are poor. 

I think middle class people enjoy life the most.  Nenu alane periga joint family lo padi mandi to always adjust avutu. I feel it a blessing and also curse sometimes. All i can say is i was extremely happy then.  Eppudu emunna happiness ayite ledu.

Disgusting emundi...whole family using same soap is pretty common and last ki unde sanna mukka malli new soap ki athikichadamo...lekapote adi fail aite poo poo ki use cheyadam also is pretty common

By the way family lo sharing soap  lo tappu ledu. Because soap is soap, it is self cleaning ani Chandler Bing epudo cheppadu... Apudu nundi I don't feel so bad lol 😋

 

 

 

Anthe ley . OCD valla emo or May be living alone alavatu poyi emo but now I get angry if someone uses my hair brush too . Soap no more using body wash so doesn’t matter . I will be honest if someone uses my hair brush accidentally I wash it in the bathroom secretly . Bhayam estundi sometimes na behavior nakey.
