Takes A Bloomin’ Continent

A lot has been written about the people in the frontlines of this pandemic. As it should be. They literally are the first line of defence and often end up in hazardous situations themselves in the process of trying to cure or keep the populace safe. But I don't think enough has been written about... Continue Reading →

Book Review: Uncomfortable Conversations With A Black Man

The problem with stereotypes is that they tend to persist, no matter how they started out. No matter how much of a fallacy it/they may be or how close they may also get to hitting the nail on the head. There's a similar element with discrimination- it persists because it has a tendency to become... Continue Reading →

Rationalizing: Crime or Excuse

This post was started back in 2016...it's getting done in 2020. I tend to get carried away with my emotions but as an adult I've begun to feel the need for things to be more systematic, logical and basically possessing soundness of thought. This morning one of the news apps I refer to had a... Continue Reading →

Technophiles R Us

While I've been looking to write more, I found quite a few posts half-baked, half-done, half-started...and those are one I'm going to try and complete unless inspiration leaves me for good. This is one of them- started in 2017 sometime and languishing for three years in the drafts section of this blog. High time it... Continue Reading →

Oh The Humanity!

Parenting is a delight and a joy depending upon which time of day, which season and generally which parent you catch hold of. On some days the WTF moments are so numerous that you really need to take a step back and say to yourself, "Did I knowingly bring forth that child into this world?"... Continue Reading →

Befuddled Parenting Bloglet

So it's the start of winter and an impending cyclone that's dumping water on our city, further making the temperatures drop. But I've only managed to get TO to wear his joggers but no long sleeve tees because apparently legs and hands feel cold separately and independently. Oh mercy...

A Brush With S.A.D…Almost

S.A.D often makes people sad and in that regard the acronym is bang on! But Seasonal Affective Disorder isn't something that Indians worry about much; or at all. We being the land of sunshine, sweat and generally good weather for the most part. But bring a cyclonic front into the mix and you have gloom... Continue Reading →

Savoring Sundays And The Days Ahead

. Been a while that I wrote anything. I was greedily reading the last installment in The Trials of Apollo. No offense to Rick Riordan but the intensity of the Heroes of Olympus, The Kane Chronicles and the Percy Jackson series is missing...for me. But I read through each and every one of them and...

From The Diary Of A Distractible Kid’s Mother…

TO and I were delving into a new chapter that's just started in Science and it was a slightly bumpy roller coaster ride- for me. 🤢 See, I know the kids' tendency to yawn, stretch and curl up into a ball at the mere thought of homework or academics. 😴😴😴Been there, done that and I...

It’s A Hard Knock Life!

Enough with the wiping the drool! It's a good look on me and it's staying! I have experience firsthand with only one child and that's not counting the immature people in my life who refuse to grow up. I have one child. ONE. TO. But he might as well be part of a set of... Continue Reading →
