Dose of love!

hey everyone! how you doing??
I on the other hand have fallen sick..down with flu and fever and cough and man do I become grumpy when I am sick. I create such a hullabulloo in the house.. every one and that means every one is running about to get me a glass of milk, hot tea, fruit, you name it I have these strange cravings for oddest things at oddest hours just like when I was full term..eating and gobbling away merrily on my throne and all my subjects feeding me religiously. God that was the funniest part, I would eat and eat and still not grow big much to every ones dissapointment and the docs would scold them that they were'nt feeding me much so face the consequences but thakfully the outcomes were pretty longg..I mean big to my horror. I was all google eyed and thought to myself where did I produce these when I didnt even look it lol! well ppl now I eat n eat and man it shows. Not that i have put on too much thanks to my hubby dear who drags me to the track every day despite my umpteenth number of excuses. I have a little pouch left to shed..but since last two days that i am down I dont think it will go away that soon as I will be stuffing my self with all the oddest crunch and every one will be feeding my leonine ego with more pampering. Actually I need it  as in like occasional dose of encouragement to make me move on .
I have these tortoise shell moments my cusp with crab that makes me go under if i dont get that pampering dose. My family has thanfully understood that need or have been forced to comply with my leonine tempers so they keep injecting me with lot of love and compassion and you are beautiful and I love you  only kinda doses and I keep happy  all lapped up like a well fed cat..purring and giggling and in return i shower them with my oddest cuisine combos and I just made up the recipe type delicacies and that makes them happy n fed.
well however today is my grumpy day..need lot of soups and liquids and love to roll me on..till another day maybe tom you all take care and yes tell your partners to feed you with a good hearty dose of love<3

Imprints upon my Mind!!

Hi! been away for a while..although I would ve loved to go globe trotting like I usually do in winters...last winter I had the chance to go to Sri Lanka and spend a good about two weeks in the sun, not that we dont have sun here . we have too much of it:) anyways the greenery the beaches the atmosphere and serenity really made my holiday worthwhile.I especially loved the coral beach stay in Hikkadua. Must go there if you get the chance. worth your money and a beautiful holiday. kandy had its own beauty. the greenery was breath taking. it was lush thick and had a unique fragrance. Of all the countries of the world that I have visited so far this country had its own character. Mind you Iam not saying it because I have not been to too many places. Believe me, I am a globe trotter in the real sense. I hate to shop and drop but i love to inhale it all in. The architecture, the character, the way of living, people and their lives. thats my hobby. I am an observer. A painter that paints it all inside their minds and relives in their memories. One more country that I really liked was Prague. The fairy tale character that it exuded was mesmerising. I felt like a princess roaming in their paved streets and old castles. Vienna was colourful.Full of life and vigour and aesthetically appealing. It offered so much for the tourist to see and savour its gourmet. Mmmm..I can still smell the aroma of its coffee in my morning strolls. There was music in the air. The entire city was pervaded with a sense of art and music. one got that over whelming feeling of being a part of that excitement and drama.
Although I loved South of Spain also ..the Mallaga and its neighbouring areas were so beautiful. I just fell in love with the orange groves on the slopes and white pristine villas some what similar to the white architecture in Jordon but mallaga was a touristy place. Calm and serene in winters..teeming with life in summers.the dances and their unique singing tempted me to stand up with them and dance.
However the best part of my longer stays are full of memories in australia and china. Australia was a different experience that cannot be matched with any of my visits to USA or england. its a outback country with a different feel to it. one gets hooked to it in no time. Probably my outdoorsy nature had some thing to do with it. I had so much FUN in real meaning over there. The kangaroos on the road sides, sanctuaries and even the city of darwin and Broome Island and christmas island are the most unique experiences of my life that i ve imprinted on my mind.
China was again another lesson in life. I learnt so much frome there, from its people who are so humble and friendly and so satisfied with whatever they have. Not like us who are always in quest to fill up or homes with artificial things and playing in the hands of fulfilling our false standards. their well kept history amazed me to no end and their castles and museums and art and craft was too overwhelming.
Well.. I can talk on and on abt my travelothons for ages. I guess I would love to share them with you again another time..another experience of yet another city imprinted on my mind. Till then, tc!

Barbie Doll Masquerade!!

You know as winter slowly creeps up on our part of the world the party season warms up..weddings, mehndis and dance bashes are heating up the floors. I seem to gloat in all the excitement and drama. The clothes and the glam looks, sultry do ups and bling bling..I just wuv it man!!  I just wish I was in this dream world all the time. I guess every one has a penchant for a certain type of thing or interest..for me its the glam world! I just can't seem to come out of it. Period! Its all about dress up and barbie doll looks.No one may believe me if they see me now that I was once a Tom girl.. a total adventure type..always ready to climb roofs , trees, pipes..lol, hike and bike, team leader with dozens of boys as my subordinates towing my line wherever I went or took them..the bossy kind who would completely control the mechanics of our pink Panther club. Plan matches and outplay the boys in cricket and lawn tenniss. I was a hard task master dressed in my signature side cap and cowboy shoes and torn jeans.. the cow boy girl with style. Till...I met this boy who treated me like shit..ofcourse why would'nt he when I was all dressed up and geared up to lead men not lead them on;) so well it was when we all climbed up upon one ofthe tallest trees in our neighbourhood as a challenge again that I realized that no one helped me down..lol or extend their help as they do to a lady I was like any other Pal, mate and they told me ,well he told me specifically well mate you can do it on your own!!
That was it..the nail in the coffin..the last time I let any man repeat those words to me;)
Since then I am the barbie doll..I may know the tricks ..drive rash or outplay all but i will never let these men know that. Femme fatale is the key to get all the attention..we women have that power to do that. Excersize both the options whenever required or needed..so..where was I ahhh yes the party season is on and I just lovvee the vivre..the tingle of that excitement to don new dresses and new shoes and run like Cindrella to  a ball just to show off my new attire andnew looks..
Time is running out and till this barbie can hold up the masquerade she will..other wise bow out gracefully !At least the glass slipper will be left behind to look for a lady who had it all:)

Rewind Replay!! Yesterday Once More :)

I dont know how many of you of my age  or may be younger are old songs die hards and have a liking for Carpenters but man I was a complete romantic in my sweet sixteen years. the song, ' Yesterday Once More' by carpenters was one of my favourites and I would sing it all day long just as the lyrics croon...i would memorize each word...those old melodies, they sound so good to me, as they melt the years away!!
But they are back again ..just like a long lost friend..allthe songs i loved so well..
Life is like that..all the years gone by in a jiffy..are no more there to console us. We just memorize each memory etched in our brains forever and replay it time and again to refresh our souls..those good old times!!
You know while going through the old cds it reminded me of  our young days when we all used to huddle around the comfy old heaters in the winters and our dads would treat us with those v old movies of our child hood..some even black and white ones..ahem dont think I'm that old ..just a bit matured as I mentioned in my earlier post.and those were some treats..those  projector spools that were watched on the big screens at homes.ancient ones for you i guess..anyways we would sit and laugh at our moms and dads in their funny garbs and funnier  goggles and funniest hairdos..my God that was the most hillarious pastime for all of us who thought were the most IN crowd..he!he!
Come to think of it there was that time when we rebuked our oldie goldie parents and made fun of them and today when we sat and watched OUR old replays was this same response..the same giggles about our 80s greased out looks and puffed up curls a la olivia Newton John.Lol! and I copied Olivia to the hilt..the same hair..the same eyes and plastered tight pants and tees..woah! 80's was not all that old my dearies..it was some times the cool macho men with side burns and spunky hairdos ..hot iwould term it. we all boogied to the sound of Bee Jees and ABBA and Boney M..
well they are no more there the good old golden years but the memories flash back the same feeling and bring a spark back again to tap our toes to the same old beats and wiggle our slightly older bones on the floor and boogey woogey the night away.
well.. cannot remain the same dancing queen of yesteryears ..got to give way to youth and enjoy their antics on the hip hop floor now..not that I cannot be a part of their hip hop scene( wink) but bow out gracefully is the name of the game..life moves on to newer pastures and onlookers remain standing on the side walks..wish I could rewind it once more and relive the part again :)

Paintaholic!! Picasso in hiding!

You know its been a while and when I say awhile that really extends the length like the furthest end of the chewing gum...that I have taken up the brush again. I was quite young..well I dont call myself old any more just a little more mature. For a looonnngest time i was sweetest 16 for my kids till they found out from their friends when they were 10 that 16 was too little for a mom to be and so one day they came back all angry and vehement to tell them the truth and I had to unfortunately apprise them so I did and from 16 I became 18...and thats how the snail speed of my age graph has moved on.
But you know I feel age is just a number its us within..our soul age that matters..and I dont think I have grown up thaaat much, so the term matured a bit more fits me just perfect!
Well where was I?? oh yea I started with paints and brushes..yeah so well I was seriously painting when I was a young girl with no little wiggle naughty bambinos. That was the calmest time in my life till these cuddly bubblys invaded my life and woah a whirlwind started. Round n round we flew in it for years..the best times i would call them. Y ou have no idea how I abhorred the name of kids before I got hitched...but when they came my perception changed. I was a kid again..I played with them, jumped with them ,  climbed roofs and trees and mountains and did every thing that can be called being naughty much to the horror of my hubby dear who couldnt imagine a lady or rather a mommy dear behaving the same as the kiddies ...but after a while poor daddy got used to this arrangement and adopted the mommy as the older baby of the house. oh and so where was I ..oh yes the paints and brushes..well for a long time I tried picking up brushes and I had stints in which i did manage to paint a serie or two but its only now that I have found ample time to devote to this hobby again.
I have this passion to get up every morning and sit in my studio thinking of what to paint. Most would think of  what to cook but that I think about before I sleep at night and order early so that no one disturbs me in my trance. You have to see me in my trance, its like meditating..doing yoga rather. I sit calmly upon my poofs all curled up like a coiled hermit minnie mouse , a brush in my teeth.. a book in my hands and a canvass laid like a book infront of me. Music in the background is my inspirer that turns me on and I start as it gets to me!!! literally it comes like pouring rain..the inspirations I mean. and the artist in me stirs up and wriggles out and starts off to paint. By the time it stops the clock has moved on couple of hours and the cds have been changed and I look like michealangelo all smeared with blobs of red and yellow and blue..my favourite colour pallette. shows in most of my paintings.
wearily I descend but with a winning smirk on my face..completion of a mission done..a piece of art created from my factory. Although none of these can be termed as super duper art creations but to me its like achieving a long lost love..can'nt get enough of it. My hubby is perplexed where to hang all these different types of mood manias. he says I have become a paintaholic..facebookholic and writoholic all three dangerous signs of going manic..so save the world before I do that I feel I have to give the world my creations..lol that the world may dig out one day and say wow there was a Picasso in hiding..he!he! well at least thats the sunshine I crave for!

Yesterday was the one of the saddest days in my life..you know only a pilots wife can understand the ordeal of another pilots wife..all our lives we are trained and conditioned to put up a brave mask upon our faces and face the harsh reality of living a life full of risk.One moment you are laughing with each other and the next day you are crying with them. Its a support mechanism that runs like a bloodline ...like an extended family that is automatically there to support each other..understand each others pains and sorrows.
The air crash that took place yesterday not only took the lives of 21 people onboard but the lives of two very dear friends of ours flying the plane.No comments on what happened but the pain that it caused was unbearable.come to think about the passengers it carried.How much pain they must have gone through. On top of that the role of media was unethically unfair.the moment it happened in the early hours the television started up likesome faulty alarm clock that keeps ringing and ringing without halt..on and on abt the same incident without even investigating it properly and authentically. It is a shame how some of our chanels are behaving these days..very irresponsibly..an immature behavior i would term it. Just to sensationalise and claim to be the first they cross limits of media ethics.
Not understanding the extent of its implications upon the lives of those who are directly affected by it.
Any ways, thats how life is these days..each day counts...thatis why it is important that we live it full and make priorities in our life. best is to give time to family and friends because thats the only sunshine that gives us hope to move ahead and face real life.

Rainbow at the end of the road!

Life seems such a waste.. every morning I wake up to the sounds of chirpy birds beside my window sill.. a whiff of morning glory tingles my nose through the open window that my hubby leaves ajar before he leaves for office.A tiny ray of sunshine peeps in through the corner of the curtains and I squint my eyes to look at the clock in front of me.9 am...still time to while away the day.Maybe one more hour in bed..contemplating life's sorrows and harsh realities. Well this is a normal routine of a house wife. or rather a house wife in her middle age when there's hardly anyone to look after..tend, care!! Life seems so easy and drab and monotonous. Day after day, the same routine , the same monotony..no respite,, no change!
I want some sunshine in my life ..the same sunshine that once made my life worth getting up for. The same sunshine that made me sing in shower and sing all the way to my office an hour away from my home.there was always a twinkling in my eye then. They named me the Sunshine girl!! was it just a few years back?? or so it seems like a decade that has gone by.. I have no energy to shine on.the only hope left is to take me away from this ever clouded atmosphere.The rain and sunshine don't go a long way but..if they do there's always a rainbow at the end of the road. Maybe I need a rainbow at the far end to make me shine again.. laugh again :)
Rainbows only appear for a little while and disappear forever I know but however little time it may be there it sprinkles colours of life every where.I want to live again..feel the warmth of life..share these colours and bask in the warmth of their strength.
Maybe out there there are more of us.. wanting to live again..be the sun for little rays that shine now. Maybe there is still  a rainbow waiting for us at the end of the road that brings back a reflection of  that special sunshine to our eyes..Hope never dies!
