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 →
Much Ado About Ahmed
At this time, if you Google Ahmed the results that will come flying are only about the teenager who was mistaken for a terrorist by a supposedly over-cautious, over-anxious, overzealous school.

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...

It's finally just existing with what IS. Sometimes we are able to do it gracefully and other times it takes a... Continue Reading →
Reblogged: Like A Phoenix
A lot of blogs turn out to be a plunge into some deep chasm of thought. It's not. I suddenly get a notion in my head. It often cries for a platform. Some days I can give it one and other days it's shunted onto my list of things-to-do-but-not-now-maybe-later. After a long time I napped... Continue Reading →
Ban The Man?
The latest news about atrocities against women has gained quite a bit of momentum. The incident happened in Hyderabad and in a hostel no less. And that's why the decisions taken by the university management really goaded me to write; since I was a boarder in a hostel when I was at a University. Apparently the... Continue Reading →
