Daylight saving began from today..and we turned our clocks one hour ahead..And as usual,I surprised myself by waking up earlier that usual.I went to the local market with two friends..DH spent all day playing cricket..It was a nice day,bright and sunny,so we enjoyed sometime outdoors too-riding the bike,playing in the park etc.

My friend & neighbour,invited us for an impromptu biryani feast..yummm Hyderabadi biryani…I’m so stuffed,I can’t breathe!!:)

It was a nice weekend..I hope we have more  of these:)

Ohhhh and here’s wishing a veryyyyyyy happy birthday to my BF Vidya.Have a good one sweetie:)

That is Aadya’s favorite story these days.And what luck,this week,as a part of the school holiday programme,our local shopping center had arranged a free Jack and the Beanstalk Musical show.

We went for its yesterday and its was hoot! Adults enjoyed it as much as the kiddies.

Thats  Jack begging his mother,that he doesn’t want to sell his Cow MilkyWhite.

The Ogre in the Castle.Check out the huge Chair and the beanstalk

The Musical Harp that puts the Ogre to sleep

Ms.Aadya and her friends watching the show.

The act was performed by two artist and ran for 30 minutes.It was so well choreographed.I wonder how much they charge.I would rather have something like this for a party entertainment,instead of the regular clown.. cracking silly jokes..

Ms.Aadya hasn’t stopped talking about it.

This is Aadya’s first ever independent Collage.She even cut the bits of paper herself.The only thing I suggested was to stick the woodchips on a printed paper,instead of the plain white..EVERYTHING ELSE is her brain n her ideas..

The wooden stars are Mommy and Daddy with Baby Aadya and Baby Brother/Sister in their laps.

The blue bits are water..and the orange on top is the boat. rest keeps changing.

P.S.I was supposed to schedule  this post for Oct 1st..but accidentally put the wrong date..So can we please consider this post No.1 for NaBloPoMo??

Yes!Thats where I am right now!
DH has been doing weekly flybacks for the last couple of weeks..Yayy..I managed to live alone with a 3-year old and not freak out!!Yayy me!
So anyway,we are booked in a service apartment in the city and I am loving it!Walking to places,exploring streets,checking out cafes..:) Loveeeeee it!
I finally got a bag for my SLR so next time,I go out,armed with that..and then there will be pics.
BTW,I am curious..have the comments stopped,because,there are no more FB updates or is it because,you are busy??Please tell me,atleast some of you are reading!!
More later..

So many things on my mind….. I dunno what to write!
Aadi is already sleeping..she is sick,poor baby.Ear infection again!I really don’t know what to do about her recurrent ear infections.
To add to the fun,not!,I am suffering from Sinus infection for over a week.Now both of us,are on antibiotics..not a lot of fun!I hate sinus infections and wouldn’t even will it on my worst enemy..wonder who that is!!LOL!
To add to my joy misery,is the letter that arrived last week,saying that Aadi didn’t get a place in the school of our choice.I was adviced to choose between 4 schools,atleast 30 minutes drive from here.I don’t think I am going to do that.We will just take our chances and wait.Fingers crossed that she gets the school of our choice in the next list.
Anyway,another thing thats bogged me down is the decision between-
A) Doing a certificate course in Pathology
B) Doing an internship-in labwork

Now,here’s the deal- I need to pay the same X amount for both. The course is something I am reallyyyyyyyyyyy interested in..and there are jobs too. But,I don’t know,how soon or when.But,it is course,I have had my heart set on for a longgggggg time.
Doing the internship- if I am lucky,I can get a paid internship ..but its an if.but it is tempting to get into something paid. but,I will be paying to practice for something I already know.
What do you think is a better option?

Hope you all had a great Ganesh Chaturthi and a very happy Eid.

I was on hormone treatment for the last two months.While the treatment has done wonders to my acne,facial hair and lot of other problems caused by hormone imbalance..it has also given me an extremely short fuse!!I was blowing up at the drop of a hat! Add to this crazy situation,a hyper-active three year old,who cannot help getting in trouble..sometimes,its face creams rubbed in the couch..or sometimes,its the whole bookshelf brought down,to make room for the ‘precious’ 10 cm scooby toy..or on most other days food fights..and you get a crazy mom,who is always screaming.
Thankfully,the course of medicine is over..and I also noticed,Aadi was beginning to jump aside or start,when I went closer,in anticipation of the next round of shouting. I have been trying to consciously not scream at her..but somedays are just NOT RIGHT!
Today was one such day.The defiance started right from the moment she woke up- I dont want to brush my teeth. I want to watch TV.I dont want breakfast.I want a biscuit.I dont want to take a shower.No .I will not do it.. and so on.
I controlled myself.And ofcourse,she HAD to brush her teeth and eat her breakfast and not the biscuit,shower was pushed till later and she could watch a movie..because,we were not going out.I have the flu!yes,again!
Then,I don’t what went wrong.I was folding clothes and she offered to help,i asked her to bring me more clothes from the chair..and guess what she did?she picked up the clothes and dropped them on the floor and sat down to watch her movie again.I screamed-first time today. she was made to pick up the clothes-TV was shut down and she was told to go clean her toy room. I took the time to cool down too.
Meal-time surprisingly was stress-free today.
But by evening she was just a teary-whiny not so happy kid..and I was just a flu-ey irritated mom.I ended up screaming at her,a little more.The little hands and fingers reach everywhere now..the laptop,the cable reciever and she got screamed at more.
At bedtime,she threw her book down and I screamed again..and then,she had had it! She looked at my mouth,then looked me in the eye..with a big crease on her forehead and asked,”Mommy,why do you have so much shouting in your mouth?”
I blinked and said,”Because You have so much naughtiness in your body”…
“Hmphff..OK! I will throw all the naughtiness”…
I said,”OK then,I will throw all the shoutings “..
She said,”Open your mouth”…I obliged..”ohh yeah,all the shoutings gone”
I told her,”Open your mouth”..she did..and said,”look all the naughties have gone”..
So we hugged and kissed..and read stories,then she went off to sleep.
As of now,the naughties and the shoutings are lying in the corner where we throw all our tears and whinings …and lets hope they stay there!!!

Half of the weekend is already over:(

We were going to meet up with a college friend,who I re-connected with on Facebook,but had to cancel last minute,as DH had to work.May be tomorrow,will be better.

Its been raining on and off all day long.We watched Avatar after DH came back.And  I am like WOWWWWWWWWWWWW!!I now know why people watched it again and again…The movie just ended and I want to watch it all over again,RIGHT now!

Anyway,time to put the brat to bed..How has your weekend been?
