Waking up to the smell of spices roasting. Hmm… coriander for the win. The magnificient colours in the shop windows. Despite the heat and the dust and the crowds, shopping in India is much more delightful than the dreary black/brown/grey shopping in Europe. Visited a shop that I frequented more than a decade ago. Not […]
Danced to music I haven’t heard in ages. Lol. Such memories. Met the whole Hyderabadi clan today. Whoa….. we need to get into shape. Aunt L’s happy hugs and sheer joy. Bless her. She’s such a darling and her words are so genuine.
Gifted a Santa that I bought over a year ago. I’m sure he’s glad to be out of the closet! Met a little girl on her 1st birthday and once more on her 7th birthday. My, how time has flown. Being called to the front of the line while shopping at a wholesale mart. Made […]
Seeing the joy on my parents’ faces when the caught the first glimpse of me. Despite waiting for hours due to a delayed flight. Feeling loved and cherished by my parents and their never ending attention and then a surprise visit by my cousin and her 2 daughters. Love meeting them 🙂 Catching up with […]
We take flying for granted, often complaining about tight confines and bad food, but being up in the air so many hours got me thinking of the simple details that kept us alive in a heap of metal soaring through the air. Ever wonder how the -57F doesn’t bother us? The ground staff and the […]
The many offers to help that came my way. So glad I’m blessed to have so many kind people in my life. One went over and above…. And over and above and over and above. Wow. A slow day was all I needed to bounce back from the bug that got me down. Feel the […]
Whoo hoo… enjoyed telling pretty much everyone that it’s my last day at work. Some envy, but mostly joy. When an unexpected comment from an ex-boss made the client go all goo-goo ga-ga over my current team. Olé, Olé! Found a few misplaced gifts. Such relief, such joy!
The quietest day we’ve had at work in a long, long time. Hope it stays as calm. Packed in record time. Haven’t weighed nothing yet, but gosh was it easier than I expected. Playing a harp that’s recently tuned…. It’s an instrument begging to be played.
Lunch with the lovely ladies before I’m outta here. Pity that the night’s festivities kept me from visiting the British Ladies’ Bazaar. Christmas gifts are on their way out. Keep discovering more goodies as I open different cupboards. So glad for the little trinket Judy got me. Wore my “bought on a whim”, Ascot hat. […]
Our “Christmas party” with those closest and dearest. Great food, fun company. Can’t stop counting my blessings. A pulled out all stops for this party. Not only was the food great, but he cleaned up before going to bed although he had an early morning flight. How blessed am I to have him in my […]
