I realized that … More New Year goals #MondayMusings #MicroblogMondays
Last year my write up on being a stay at home mom got published in Women’s Web. It was accepted well among the readers. 14 months later yesterday, my inbox received another comment on the same. I am quoting it here. Just one question. If you wanted to be a SAHM, the why did you study … More Wasting a seat? #MondayMusings
And the Thanks Giving weekend is over! Just like last year, we missed it this year too. Thanks Giving weekend was always look forward to when we were in Phoenix, not just because of the big sales that followed, or the food that was consumed, but also for the getting together with friends and spending … More An abode I miss! #MicroblogMondays #MondayMusings

I say blogging and not writing because I write almost everyday as free writing and in … More Saying bye to Writer’s Block #MondayMusings & #MicroblogMondays
Amma, I want cookies. You can give me as many as you would like, but don’t give me low numbers okay? Why is the sky never ending? Why is Mr.Bean called Mr.Bean, why not BT or George? You might have guessed the people involved in the conversation above. Yes, these are from my kid whose … More #MicroblogMondays – Funny bits from Kanna
Yesterday Kanna started his first day of Year one at his new school. Unlike last year, he was a little nervous this time. He talked less, answered only when he was asked, made less eye contact, but he didn’t say that he was nervous or anything of that sort. Yes, he is growing up and … More And off he goes..

I am practicing meditation now. This is the third week. Of all the fitness activities out there, meditation is probably the toughest one. I like it; it’s a solo activity. I close my eyes, listen to the voice from my phone telling me to quite down my thoughts and focus on emptying my mind. And … More #MicroblogMondays – Between meditating and multitasking!
