I wouldn't be who I am if I didn't indulge in gripes about my pet peeves. So what if it's at the start of the year? This way am getting some rants and grumbles out of my system so there's less to spew and gnash my teeth about! I have made a couple of decisions.... Continue Reading →
Bloglet: From Highs to Lows
It's my personal view point that very few things have the kind of power to reduce us to feeling tiny and insignificant like technology does. Take this particular case...I got my brand new laptop. Tis pretty. It's not black but I let it slide. Lovely big screen, faster RAM and more memory for me to... Continue Reading →
2015: A Retrospective
2015 is about to come to a close and yet there were times it seemed to drag itself out unendingly! Biggest news from our side is that the brat is now in a big kids' school. He's only in first grade but he seems to be changing perceptibly in front of our eyes. He's learning... Continue Reading →
Sanities and Tensions…
The brat is keeping us massively entertained with the things he's been learning in school. And while he no longer has the problem with his hearing that he did before, he is still prone to quite a bit of distractibility. That coupled with things that are repeated while he is in a group, like the school assembly,... Continue Reading →
Co-Sleeping…A Parent Reflects
One of the first things I bought when I got pregnant, was a cot for my baby. It was nice, smooth with rounded edges and had teething shields on both the rails. It worked well when the brat was a teeny-tiny infant and it also worked as a mini-prison of sorts during time outs when... Continue Reading →
Bloglet: Repartee
I am currently in what I imagine is a near-Cinderella stage. Drippy nose, swollen face and mopping up the red blood (poster color) that MLM generously painted on his T-Rex's teeth and pretty much all over on an off-white tiled floor. I fall back on the worst threat in my arsenal aka am going away... Continue Reading →
A Bloglet on Introspection
There are days when being a parent seems akin to being a modern-day Sisyphus. Or did I mean Prometheus? Either way it's a (Greek) drama of epic proportions and you end up wishing someone or the other to Hades atleast once. Finit. Posted from WordPress for Android
Realizations at 4:45 A.M
On an early morning drive to the airport, roughly 36 kms of thinking time, I realized the following: 1. Robert Palmer is very repetitive. And annoying. Addicted to Love is getting deleted from the playlist. 2. Morons, the real ones, are very consistent. Moronic all the time. All days of the week. Never take a... Continue Reading →
Cough. Sniffle. Sneeze.
A kid gets a cold and a mother's world spins out of whack!
Dealing With A Sick Kid
This is how a day with a kid who's home sick is likely to go: Teeth gnashing. Foot stomping. Angst. Frustration. Sleepiness. Annoyance. Howls. Ire. Pouting. Sulking. Swearing (albeit mildly). Refusing to eat. Looking at the world with a jaundiced eye. Growls. Snarls. Roars. Miffed murmurs. And that's all you. What does the kid do?... Continue Reading →
Random. Structured. Haphazard. All Me.
