My mom is here!! Yipppeee!!

It always is nice to have somebody staying over at my house. Imagine, just H and me and our boring routine of going to work, coming back, cooking (with no help from hubby), cleaning up, doing the laundry and running around vaccuming the house when somebody comes to say hello. Now, if this sounds boring, try doing it! Its downright depressing! I am from a huge family. I stayed in a joint family and even when we moved over to stay as a nuclear family, I had many friends and too many "family" visiting to be bored and the important part... I was the kid of the family and didn't move a finger for any of the above mentioned chores!!

Having grumbled about all the work I have to do, I am very excited that my mom is here. Though she says (insists) "You go sit", I cannot do it. I didn't invite my mom here just to take up all the work while I sit and enjoy. I invited her to spend some time with Harish and me and also to relieve Harish from my not-so-proffessional cooking. My mom finishes cooking in about a half hour!!!!! I can't even think of such a feat now. I fight off all the protestations and do help with the chores. But her cooking is the best! And she is preparing to "organize" my house a bit even though she insits I am maintaining the house well.. Now, which one is true??!!! I am confused.

Back with a (low)bang

I know I know.. its been more than a year since I blogged. I was too busy and stopped it... I am still tooo busy but then I need a relaxing break now and then.

Lets see.. in the past year, I celebrated my 1st wedding anniv, got a real job, went to India(yipeee time), cut short my trip by a month (H being the cause) and have been working hard ever since. Now, does this sound interesting?? Thought not. But then thats whats happened.

I did go to Vegas for my birthday this year, then went to Smoky Mountains to chill out in May and am looking forward to my moms visit.. Yup! She's coming here on the 12th and Boy! am I excited??!! Counting the days!!!
