A Tangled Yarn of Thoughts Being Unravelled…
an answer, that is. It might not be the one you wanted to hear because let's admit it; we seldom ask questions we don't know or want the answers to. Especially the existential kind. Even with the academic kind, we're hoping that we don't have to be in situations where algebraic equations or doing a... Continue Reading →
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 →
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 →
I first blogged in 2005. Courtesy Red. When we met he asked me a couple of questions about my interests and what sort of things was I into; sadly my answer to most were no. And stoic man that he is, he never batted an eyelid at any of them. And still doesn't a decade... Continue Reading →

It's finally just existing with what IS. Sometimes we are able to do it gracefully and other times it takes a... Continue Reading →

See the thing with kids is this- you are doing things with them, for them, watching them do things... Continue Reading →
Well most parents who're reading this are going-DUH! But for the uninitiated and those who just "love" kids, here are some telltale signs that a mini-adult inhabits a particular dwelling. Here we go- There are mini shoes/flipflops/socks dotting the entrance of the house/apartment. The surface of the house is kind of glossy. Upon closer examination... Continue Reading →
I'll admit it here and possibly have it engraved on a metal plate and hang it somewhere prominently...NO ONE CAN SHOCK ME AS MUCH AS MY CHILD! While I was dropping him to school this morning he suddenly got very excited and shouted out, " LOOK! FUCKS!" I nearly had a WTF moment myself and... Continue Reading →
