Wo(a)ndering thoughts!!!

She used to be smart, She used to have lot of friends, She used to have a life of her own, She used to have lazy days, She used to argue brilliantly, She used to talk to her cousins for hours of nothingness, She used to have an identity of her own.. Now what’s changed? She is Married!! Self-respect is rude to consider, Self-interest took a back seat, Still looking for her lost identity, Her intelligence and Smartness Challenged and Criticized all the time... What’s left is unexplored “Should-Have's” and “Regrets”!!   #Not-cliché   # WomenIssuesAreNotOverrated   # stillHappens   # NoCulturalBoundaries # universalTruth   # lifeOfMarriedwomen     Pic: Google Images

Boys are on their vacation and I'm home alone. I have done this before, but this time the difference is the weekend. Last  time I didn't have to spend my weekend alone!!!  It was just weekdays(workdays), so I was occupied. Its been a week already,I can't believe how time flew. I have to be honest, I'm enjoying this lone time. I get to walk a lot to/from station which I can't do when I have to pick A up after work. I don't have to rush to/from work.. And I can cook something simple and relax. watch movies/TV during DAY time!!! <unlike wait till A goes to bed>.. I sound silly. Its true, I think small break like this make you aware of the small things in life and appreciate them.. Its all because I know for sure A is getting completely pampered and taken care off. No hard feelings/guilt/worry.. And thanks to A and G , they make it look very simple for me. I see their smiling faces in the pics they share and I smile ' This is how I planned this br...

Kannamma, Remember your first flight with me when you were 11 months old, I was nervous as hell. Nevertheless, you were so playful and composed, not at all naughty or cranky. You slept most of the time and made my trip lot easier. It is always a pleasant trip when travelling with you. I must admit you are a natural traveller. Be it a new place or a new journey you are always excited and on-board. You started sitting on your own seat (in flight) when you were 2yrs. You even refused to share your seat with me (it was aisle seat for both of us – a walkway in between us) . You sat on your own, watching some cartoon and slept without a fuss. I just sat there looking at you whole night thinking you might fall down in your sleep.   Our first trip alone to Japan with our best friends, it was such a pleasant memory you and our darling Y created except for the fact you both literally fought every day for the right side window seat. You heard it right. There are two windo...

Day: Another day at home ; Place: Dining Table Who: A & I are enjoying our evening tea sitting across each other. A: Ma, How was your day?  Me: Yea I'm ok babe A: Are you sure ?

Me: I'm ok and moreover she moved on ..She doesn't work with me anymore..  A: Why? <looking curious> Me: I don't know.  A: You are ok then.  Me :Yes We both just laughed..  It might well like look a Gossip, but I felt happy when he remembered to check on me and my wellness..PS: just recording this to read it to myself when he gets to teen and act all Cool to care less.. Going to miss the boys and all our evening chats for a while (14 DAYSSSS!!!).. Its VACATION time to India.. Al...

My day doesn't go without having a Aww or Sigh  mommy moment.  Just amazed by A's cheekiness as you know from my prev posts and his clever responses. Sometimes I forget I'm a parent, I give up and laugh by his response.. I’m not alone in this, I’m sure every parent go through this.. Here I'm capturing my recent Aww and Sigh mommy moments. This poster below just reminds me of A. Also I couldn't get anything better for this post..  PC:google images/Pinerest - This totally reminds me of A!! I start with my Awww moments Last weekend, I had a bad headache and I could feel the pain in my eyes..We were going to a b’day party, pain didn’t go away even after taking the meds.. A was so sweet to share his chocolate from his  goodie bag. I don’t know whether it’s the chocolate or the love(just saying!!) , it eased my pain.. I read about it later, apparently chocolates have an impact on headache!! Next day when we went out , he carefully packed a chocolate fo...

Before I start off , I want to clarify the title. No! I’m not going to talk about gender of my next child and Nope! I’m not pregnant either..I know I disappointed you, next time you better know me before you expect!!  haha.. not kidding.. What am I talking about!? Obviously about Friends.. Does it matter whether they are Girls or boys? Personally if you'd ask me, I don't think so.. Friends are friends.. I still think I had best of conversations/arguments with my friends who are both boys and girls. And for some reason, when I moved to OZland my circle reduced to few best friends who understands and knows exactly what I want to hear from them when I need them!!.. That's me!! I started thinking about this when A stopped playing with his kinder GF- E.. He used to adore her like anything, play with her on the days she is in(she is not full time in his kinder) and wouldn’t stop talking about her.   ‘E’ is such a lovely lil one with cute smile. Last week she showed ...

My usual weekday starts with a cup of tea with G..Its the best time for us, that’s actually the only time we get to talk quietly without little brat interrupting us “Excuse me Amma! Can I talk  now!”. Today A woke up early with me, but G was trying to make him go back to sleep. I was alone having my tea , I took my laptop for some browsing. God knows why I started with the NEWS page. Within minutes, I regretted. I see ONLY sad news- its like we live in the SAD world- ONLY thing happening around us are  burglary/rape/kidnap/murder/how politicians deceiving the world .. There is no SIGN of positive news to start with.. It really got me and I closed my laptop.  However, the “stuff” from the NEWS running in my head still. I don’t feel good. By then G has given up making A sleep. A comes out and gives me a hug(Blessed).I would have accepted a meaningful hug from anyone by that time to make me feel better. Iam lucky that I have 2 souls who does it often to remind me ...
