Entered the train in the company of a lovely little lady who needed some help getting up. She was visiting someone on the same road that my church is on. She even knew there was an English church there. She remembered the names of all the streets. Talked about rivers in India and the details […]
I was supposed to catch up with the old gang for an hour or so… ended up reaching home at 7 in the morning. Yeah. They do that to you. 4 bars. 2 matches. 2 live bands. 1 disco. Fantastic company. Met a Spaniard of Gallego parenage, brought up in Belgium, married to a Filipino. […]
Spoke to a few friends from back home. 19 years haven’t changed us much. Perfection I guess. Holidays are on and the parks are always full of happy, playful kids. Blonde and blue eyed… it’s fun to watch them run around on their little legs. Hope they remain this way for a few years more […]
Heard someone broke up. Sorry for her broken heart, but he wasn’t the fun for her. I’m glad it came sooner rather than later. Down to pentalties. Love when matches are that way. The only thing one could wish for is a cleaner match. Telling someone that “I’d choose Jesus over any man” and realising […]
Revisited an old haunt. The waitress left her work and came over to chat. Service is so important. Wish people realised it. Packed away my boots. Got my summer shoes out. Shopping on the list. Brazil won… with 21 shots 21 in a game of 90 minutes. Then Belgium – Japan happened. I’ve never been […]
Great music, fantastic sermon, drinks with the gang. Wow! OLM is much much more than a church. Loved wearing my purple chudidaar and being complimented by everyone. Lol … they even stopped to call me princess. Poor kids… Goddess… not princess. But they’ll get there. Creating words and laughing till my sides hurt. Over the […]
Rest for the soul and body. Haven’t woken up so refreshed in a long time. Couldn’t help but notice that in a few WCs, it’ll be the Africans vs the Africans 🙂 The South Americans keeping my predictions true so far… Go Uruguay! No more individual performances… it’s all about teams once more.
Wore my wooden elephant necklace. People stopped, stared, complimented and smiled. Lol. Hosted a party for J & A. So glad I got a chance to catch up with them on their visit. When people really matter and relationships are genuine, distance doesn’t really matter. At lest not in this day and age. It was […]
The gorgeous Madrid sky was back today. Took a few hundred photos and none of them can do it justice. Lost in the best possible way… learning about redis and rabbit and kibana. Love researching. It’s been a long time, wayyy too long since a stranger stopped me, complimented me and asked me if I’d […]
Early in the morning, the sun hidden behind a cloud, camouflaged like a beautiful solitaire. Today, I dressed like I used to when I was in India. Trousers and a shirt. Haven’t received as many compliments as I did today in a long, long, long time. The reigning champions are out, but my fave made […]
