Back with my blog ... after a long gap


I am finally back to blogging .. atleast thts what im hoping for ! Its been pretty busy with my beautiful cuddly daughter who is almost 9 months old now ... whaaaat already 9 mon ? yeah time has flown by

Memories of my parents visit still linger fresh iin my head .. Its wierd but i remember each and everyday since my baby was born -- our tiny bundle of joy --- wow I remember holding her in my hand for the first time tears rolling down my cheeks .. with hubby dear by my side .. Its been a journey ... I've learnt so much and matured like never before ... what little mattered so much don't matter anymore .. Motherhood is wonderful and it has taught me so much ...

anyways .. here is a quick summary of all my activities since my last blog (oct 16). It so happened a few days after that blog I was put on bedrest due to preterm labor and guess what .. I delivered within a couple of weeks (thank heavens my parents arrived just in time or hell would have broken loose)

That was just the start of my happiness ... the sleepless nights and the post-partum hormones did their part and eventually said BYE-BYE to me .. yayyyyy ! We enjoyed so much , so many visitors came home, so many gifts for the baby, amma cooked daily for us and it was truly a blessing to have someone take care of you :-)

Appa left after a while .. but amma stayed for the entire 6 mon and I remember coming back early from work to take amma out ..

Eventually work got overwhelmingly tiring and stressful and I decided to quit, to stay home to take care my home, baby and hubby dearest. Man .. this is the best decision in my life till now .. what relief and happiness .. and guess feel energitic and fresh most of the time ... been able to try out new dishes and cook daily :-) , play with my baby and most important of all .. be there for my loved ones always !

What's on my mind now

How hard can job hunt be ? Two simple words, but a long process behind it. As on July 2010, the unemployment rate in USA stands at 9.5%, including 14.6 Million unemployed persons. ( source - US Census Bureau) Where are the jobs ? Are unpaid internships even worth the time and effort ? Especially in Houston - spending all that money on filling your gas tank, and daycare, in pursuing an unpaid internship while in school ? I don't know ! Hi-Tech thieves selling children's social security numbers long before the little one's even have a bank account ! How horrific ..

Scars of time

Situations we wish never happened in the first place, certain periods of time that seemed to pass very slow, like eternity but that will also pass. But there is always a reminder lingering in the mind, i think it is subconcious, and is there to stay in you for as long as you live.

Discovering the 'Roots'

I remember being fascinated by a TV commercial for a website called Ancestry.com. It was a new concept, in 2005 perhaps.  I love how in the US, they trace the roots with the Social Security Number  and form the family tree. Hailing from India, a country that has existed and birthed generations much earlier that the US; I often wish that our ancestors had some sort of tracking mechanism. I'm glad that the PAN number concept has sprung up in recent times, but nevertheless. How many of us can pin point where we came from?  I would love to know though. Many of us have moved cities. Many of us have parents that made the move earlier on in their careers. I know Indians in the US who were born here because their great grand parents moved here in 1950s. I am curious to know more about my Ancestory. We don't have any tracking mechanism such as Social Security numbers, but it would be nice if I knew the profession the men folk were ...
