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
My Two And A Half Cents
Why two and a half? Well..I might not get everything out with just two cents worth ergo the extra half cent to properly cover the bases. Without further ado let me mention that this blog post is about the now uber scandalous Sheena Bora Murder Case. Initially it was just the online editions of the various... Continue Reading →
Cough. Sniffle. Sneeze.
A kid gets a cold and a mother's world spins out of whack!
Yet Another Epiphany
I had another Ah-HA! experience this morning while "attempting" to explain to MLM why something is desirable and why something isn't. People (parenting experts, those whose kids are no longer a pain-in-the-ass and those who are blissfully childless) usually say that it sets a bad example to communicate with a growing child using largely negatives...

The Blessing Of Being A Daughter’s Mother
Now let me start off by saying that having a son isn't a curse or a non-blessing either. Even if mine does make me long for Valium on most days, he is truly the light, noise...err..sound of my life. But back to why a daughter specially, is a blessing. A friend and ex-colleague of mine... Continue Reading →
There’s A Dinosaur In My Bra!
No. I'm not high. Yes, I wish I was. And yes, I have a child. Ergo the weird things ending up where they ideally ought not to. Sitting down and finding a clothes pin jammed up in your butt crack is passe. Stepping on Batman and theoretically emasculating him when you get up to pee... Continue Reading →
Movie Review: Home
MLM has summer holidays and it's driving me up the wall. A movie seemed like a good way to get him to climb other walls outside the home. And because it's his summer vacation I'll keep it short. Barring the creation of the Boovs where Jim Parson's Sheldon Cooper-manner of talking, albeit with grammatical errors,... Continue Reading →
Daily Positives
Inspired by @kelzbelzphotography, I too will start a daily positives post. I will start but endeavor to have something positive to post daily. This post is a retrospective one or should it be a retrograde one? Anyhow it'll be a retro something for sure! So here goes: Yesterday I took my brat shopping in the... Continue Reading →
The Life Of An Urban Housewife
Get up and beat the alarm...not to death but beat it to the finish. Stumble over toys and everything that should not be scattered on the floor. Brush while still a zombie. Use the loo and think Oh God...another day. Struggle into swimsuit and go for a dip. Get into pool and properly wake up. Thank... Continue Reading →
