Another month ends with the year

No one can say I didn't try. The truth is that I did. I paid Anu and Kala on the first but not Laxmi - I am still burnt from last month's experience. Anyhow, she asked me today if I would pay her since she needs to pay her landlord (common excuse but I understand). I told her to remind me tomorrow.

This month Laxmi took four days leave...obviously without letting me know in advance. I would most likely pay her the whole amount with a warning this month.

Laxmi these days comes to work with her daughter, Mala who is maybe 14-15 years. Laxmi mentors her on various household chores. For most time, Mala is distracted by the TV, outdoors or other electronics at home. I gave her a chocolate yesterday. Mala did not eat it immediately. She wanted to share it with Laxmi and her bother, Harish. I was impressed.
