The Doc’s appointment was not the easy, breezy, smooth sailing Friday evening I expected… Instead I was given a scary fact check and reminded that despite the fact that I take my illness (Multiple sclerosis) rather lightly, it is a serious illness and I will need to start taking more care of me. And soContinue reading “#BadDay”

Find your Fun
The husband complained more than a few times of my accurate description of his grunts and TV watching style. This amused me thoroughly and when I asked whether I should photograph him as proof or use his name in the blog- he grunted his approval while staring at his phone screen! Conclusion-: He (Aditya) canContinue reading “Find your Fun”
The Exhaustion of Being
So over a dinner with friends the other evening, it seemed like everyone was suffering the same malady… ‘I’m exhausted!’… ‘Done by 9!’….’Cant’t get out! Don’t even want to!’ The problem, we realised was not age… (despite the snickering yawns) or our jobs even…. it was just mental fatigue and the aversion to justContinue reading “The Exhaustion of Being”
To all the haters of Valentines Day!
Well here’s my short letter to you…! To all the Haters of Valentines Day, I’m sorry! But you suck! But for those who feel they deserve a less snippy version… here are my thoughts! We spend our lives criticising, critiquing, hating…not just others but ourselves! We’re never good enough, fast enough , cute enough, popularContinue reading “To all the haters of Valentines Day!”
When the going gets tough!
So every day isn’t your best day… every day may not be a day you are proud of…it may not be a day you care to remember…it may even be a day you can’t stop the tears. And as the rain pours and the economy sinks , days become darker and so do outlooks andContinue reading “When the going gets tough!”
No time? Why?
‘ I have no time,’ a constant complaint from all of us. ‘I can’t believe where the day /week/ month / year went!’ It went. And you were there. But you weren’t actually present. We’re always so busy. But busy achieving what? We spend less time with family and friends. We are divided between dutiesContinue reading “No time? Why?”
The Seven Year Itch!
So the husband and I just completed our seventh year of marriage and after every 3 congratulatory messages, the customary 7 year itch joke was then messaged/warned/joked about! That got me down to thinking… the seven year itch is only popular because of the wildly popular Marilyn Monroe film of the same name which wasContinue reading “The Seven Year Itch!”
Treat her like a lady!
Stop wishing me ‘Happy Women’s Day!’ Don’t fill your offices with balloons or give me a free cookie with a cup of coffee! Don’t give me chocolates or roses. Don’t smile at me unnecessarily or create lunches to felicitate me! Instead treat me as an equal. Treat me with respect. Pay me the same asContinue reading “Treat her like a lady!”
stop hating. start loving.
Last week was important for 2 reasons. Last week was Valentine’s Day – and the one week I didn’t write! In my Valentine’s Day- I see hearts, and heart shaped chocolates. I see flowers and balloons and gifts and romantic declarations…. and tho you will have the few who ‘do not believe in Valentines day’Continue reading “stop hating. start loving.”
Keep the Faith
The last week we were having a discussion with friends… a friend of mine proudly said that she was supposed to get very lucky this week…astrologically! She was supposed to ‘win a huge amount of money in a lottery!’ That sounded just perfect to her husband except he said … well she was going toContinue reading “Keep the Faith”
