Another year went by giving me many memories, experiences and life lessons....some worth cherishing, some worth forgetting...overall an year in which I rose from strength to strength is how i will remember this year. While the year itself was a cocktail of experiences ...the year ended on a high note. The last fortnight was one helluva happening fortnight. For the past two years, vacations have come to a halt as my son has no long winter vacations. So this year too ....no grand vacations but we had 3 sets of guests at our place which more than made up for vacations.
We ensured none of us would bank on technology to entertain ourselves ( not forced either) so there was not much entertainment through technology. When the guests came, we bonded over good home cooked dishes. entertaining outings, loads and loads of conversations, laughter, mock fights, giggles and board games like pictionary, carrom etc rolled out to the drawing room. In between, we managed a one day trip to Warangal to visit the 1000 pillared temple and Fort Warangal. Overall, a very happening fortnight where we made excellent memories worth cherishing.
Today, the daughter went back to hostel and I am back to the routine.....
2016 holds lots of promises.....Hoping to work on many of my interests....
Adios 2015, Hola 2016!!!
