PDA...

Wedding season has just got over and I had three weddings lined up from end of November to quarter of December.

Weddings do contribute to chaos and clutter at home with frequent dressing up, attending functions, getting back home, changing and going for the next function. They also bring you close to family, helps you catch up with relatives and gets you closer to good food. 😋

The most important thing in weddings these days is the look. The look which is captured by our baes (our phones). Pictures take away so much time of weddings that we may miss out catching up on food and a some friendly gupshup.

Everyone wants to get clicked. Solo, couple, with kids, family, with cousins, friends, with the newlyweds, with the floral decoration, with the antiques, with the fountain, with the car, the list doesn't stop.....

I am a big spoiler when it comes to pictures, but I do love taking pictures. Still, a snap or two throughout the entire evening are always welcome.

Remember my first point in Spousy Treat? It was about hubby being shy. He doesn't talk to me much when people are around. He also goes absconding when I ask him for pictures with me.

I get excited about weddings mainly thinking that I would get time to spend with him, I can sit with him and listen to music in the car, can have food with him, click one or two pictures, steal glances on him when he is talking to others, dedicate songs and see if he can guess its from me.. 

All of which happens... (only in my head) It turns out to be the complete opposite in reality. The wedding ends up piling on to the physical exhaustion with emotional weariness.

Adding on is PDA by couples - married, unmarried and those that have spent years together making me adamant for PDA too.

My PDA here refers to 'Publically Attention Do'. I do hereby confess that I crave for attention from hubby when in public. I just want him to share few moments with me when outside home.

I do not want him to go on his knees and profess love. Not to hold hands if he doesn't want to. Neither would I want him to do anything thag makes him uncomfortable in public.

Click a picture, share a small talk, enjoy songs being played in the background, admire the surroundings, enjoy good food together. I want him to compliment me sometimes. It would be encouraging to hear a few good words about my parenting, about the way I do my bit at home. All of this to be between just the two of us in a crowd of hundreds.

Sometimes I feel its not something I should expect, I simply have to continue doing what I do. But aren't we all humans? A little bit of Positive Attention (I mention Positive because I do end up getting negative attention from the rest of the family often) can boost up a gloomy day and charge us up for the better.

So a bit of positivity, an assuring smile, some uplifting words would do no harm to his image or mine. This is my PDA. I do deserve it too.

P. S

Hubby, I know you're hesitant and shy but I will not give up either. I will continue andolan "Publicly Do Attention" ✊ till the time death do us apart.

CHEERS!

GOD BLESS!!
