A Tangled Yarn of Thoughts Being Unravelled…
We've been having slightly wonky weather here. It's rainy and overcast one minute but suddenly bright rays of sunshine will burst through the clouds and blind us all. TO has been slightly under the weather. His usual scheduled spell of cough-cold-almost-guaranteed throat infection during the monsoons is slightly delayed this year but it's finally made...

The month of August is usually quite festive in this household. Both Red and TO have birthdays. Incidentally both had milestone birthdays this year- their 40th and 10th. Needless to say, the 10th birthday brouhaha was everything that it should be. Between 2 cakes spanning the loves of his life aka cricket and reptilian monsters... Continue Reading →
I got too busy catching up with my folks and forgot to publish this last night. A little girl who's become a part of our family of 3 was paying us a visit this evening. Needless to say with TO turning 10 and his cuteness factors dipping day by day; a chirping and twirling child... Continue Reading →
People tend to see shapes in the clouds, some even see things with their eyes closed but I think TO kind of took the cake today. After he got home from school today and was having his snack, he suddenly said 'Mustache'. For a second I thought he meant I needed to schedule an appointment... Continue Reading →
I crashed by myself last night...was listening to music, sorting out playlists...everything you need head space for and which can't always be done effectively with someone staring at you with googly eyes and asking, "what are you doing?" for the millionth time. I avoided weird bedtime conversations but couldn't avoid them during the next morning... Continue Reading →
TO' school's set to reopen come next Monday (does a mini jig of joy). I like my kid being at home provided he doesn't get into that mode of where he wants me to generate things for him to do and then proceeds to shoot down each and every one of them just because! Anyhoo,... Continue Reading →
For anyone who's wondering about the sudden jumps in the numbers on the blog posts, let's just put it down to outright artist license and move onto the good stuff. Here's another post which brought a smile to my face because life has interesting ways of teaching us lessons.. Vengeance is mine, and I will... Continue Reading →
Another one that caught my eye from the days of yore... Right from the time my son was born, I was struck by how delicate he was. I knew babies are vulnerable and helpless but this one seemed to embody those qualities and more. He was a thin baby, weighing just on this side of... Continue Reading →
My kid thinks I'm blind AND dumb. If he didn't, why on earth would he cut off a clump of hair that he couldn't untangle instead of bringing it to his mother who's so damn handy with a comb and also when we have a detangler spray handy as well? My face is going to... Continue Reading →
So TO is a cricket buff. Am not. He has good hand-eye co-ordination. I don't. He's more like Red in this regard. Thank goodness. This was our talk today- Me: " Kane Williamson...ummm hmmm...hello there!". TO: "He's OLD Ayu!". Me: " He's waaay younger than me baby!" TO: YOU. ARE. OLD. AYU" After that bit... Continue Reading →
