Say What Now?

I landed back in Hyderabad yesterday and as always Red and TO had come to pick me up. It's quite lovely to be met by happy smiling faces especially during these times. TO had made numerous calls to me while I was away and had let me know in great detail where Red hadn't come... Continue Reading →

A Case Of Travel Sleep

I always have patchy sleep before I or anyone from my family has to travel. And that gets compounded by morning travel plans. I get up a few times during the night to check the display on my phone to see what time it is. Usually am up an hour or so before I need... Continue Reading →

The Pandemic: A Timeline of Delayed Gratification

Most people I know have dealt with the fallout of the pandemic to the best of their ability. Some have been lucky to not contract the virus at all or recover quickly if they have and thankfully not too many have faced any irreplaceable losses. But we've ALL been touched by the effects of it... Continue Reading →

Not Talking To You!

Red and TO have been acting like annoying prats and I'm stuck playing referee. Yay for me. This morning when TO was looking for his meds he had to take Red's help since Red had kept them somewhere after the last dose. A sulky and solemn-faced child informed me he couldn't ask his father since... Continue Reading →

Be Careful What You Wish For…

My parents shared their good experiences with me by making me a part of them. Places they went to as children or travels they'd enjoyed were recreated with me so I could see what the fun was about. Places they hung out in or eateries they frequented in their youth; I've been to quite a... Continue Reading →

The Lard Bloglet

It's one of those days when your kid snuggles up to you saying, "No Marshmallow, don't go...I want to sleep for some more time". You love this kid but if he calls you Marshmallow one more time...#%$&!£!#*

Lockdown Day#2

Today is veggie day and I roped in my newly-freed-up-from-classes assistant and we bought, cleaned and dried everything before putting them away. Normally said assistant would be moaning and groaning through his classes while I'd be out tapping fruits and smelling the leafy greens, so having the small hooman around and helping, made for a...

Lockdown Day#1

While a lockdown hits hard at every aspect of our lives, today am far more upbeat than I have been in a long time! The reason is simple. My kid's online classes are coming to an end for 2 months. And Red and I will finally get back to being human parents rather than the... Continue Reading →

A Little Bit Of Music…

"I am all Covided out!" That's not my utterance but borrowed from a friend who's said it with so much sincerity that it came across even on chat. But the reason I wrote it here is because I am all Covided out. While I waited for my reports to show up, while I played devil's... Continue Reading →

A Cough and a Wheeze…

Makes the whole world freeze! These days at least. For those of us who are moms, the steady output of coughs, sneezes, phlegms is not a bother at all. Seeing how they are usually aimed our way or done by our loving offsprings who would probably have a tissue, a hanky in one hand, have... Continue Reading →
