Kavady Festival
Thai Poosam Kavady is a Hindu religious festival dedicated to Hindu deity Lord Murugan that is celebrated by Tamil people in South Africa. Kavady translates in Tamil language as a pole slung across the shoulder to evenly distribute the weight of whatever is being carried, usually in bundles on either ends of the pole. The carrying of kavady symbolizes the carrying of one’s burden and then resting it at the feet of the Lord.

Home for the holidays
During the festive season our company closed and we had two weeks off, bonus leave, not part of our annual leave. Thanks, MH, m'wah!
I spent all this time at home, it was wonderful. My family came to stay for a few day - it was so great - Christmas with family.
At one stage I hadn't left the house for 5 days. I didn't use my credit card for 8 days. Gasp!
I tidied up every room and got rid of everything I no longer used, liked or wanted. I slept a lot. I read. I hardly ever cooked ;-). I only sewed one thing. I rearranged the furniture and the cutlery drawers. I played with the dogs, and my nieces. Watched 3 seasons of Shameless and loved it. Stayed in my PJs for a day and a half. Spent the gift card in 10 seconds. Sat in the garden. Had Christmas biscuits with every cup of tea. It's been awesome.
