For the past months, When i was at work or at leisure, I would often hear an inner voice telling me that i am ignoring my blog, Everytime, I heard the voice i would silence it by telling that i have other priority work/busy or usefully occupied now and will blog the next day...but busy with what? I know not....i simply know that was a super excuse for losing interest in blogging and indulging in other new tasks.
Today, after two months when i picked my laptop to check on a page which was not opening on phone, I decided to open my blogpage and write something.
Today, after two months when i picked my laptop to check on a page which was not opening on phone, I decided to open my blogpage and write something.
Even now, as i am typing this....i don't know what do i fill it with.....My blog which is my storehouse of my memories, my anecdotal happenings, my travel diary is blank, ..but i want to say something and don't like this page staring blank at me.
Have i said it all? seems like I have nothing to share or maybe i don't know to construct my thoughts coherently.

Hmmm......may be i should just write randomly about the little happenings of my life in the last two months ( dec16, jan,17)
So let me first start with a confession,
While on the phone, All my thoughts are shared through a different media where there are specific groups. I seem to be dabbling in too many things using the phone, making friends, meeting virtual friends in real, connecting with them on my interests, sharing thoughts ...ofcourse all this happens after i have attended to my work .
While lot of learning and connecting is happening through these groups, i find sometimes it is too much of information explosion too. Ignorance is sometimes bliss and why learn about too many things..
Lot of learning is happening offline too. I had joined a sketching and watercoloring workshop, a rangoli workshop( sanskar bharati) and .....and.....the two left footed me is learning dance too and i did give a public performance with our group on republic day in our campus. Unbelievable for anybody who knows me, because i hated dancing or watching dance unless it was my children's show....what a change!!! I know everything in life goes through a change, i am no exception!!! I am doing all things which i once would never have thought of doing.
my little organic garden is throwing me surprises. Every morning, when i open the balcony door, a new ripe red tomato says 'hi' to me.
There are times, when my zero mile food dictates my menu, methi paratha, methi thepla, menthiyakeerai vatthakozhumbu, methi alu fry, tomato rasam, tomatoes in salad, pesto sauce, mint raita.... and waiting for more now that, spring has begun....an ideal weather for veggies.
I am living and enjoying the little moments of life than photgraphing them, ( finding the charger, perfect lighting etc..is such a pain, by then I lose the moment), one such moment was during our year end break.
Our original road trip to horsley hills was broken as we could not afford a 3 day break due to sonny boy's school but we did take a 1.5 day trip to a " watersport resort" cottage near Chilkur.
While here, we threw ourselves back into pre-technology era and indulged in sports( tennis, badminton, billiards, carrom, table tennis), walking, breathing in crisp fresh air and eating healthy food.
It was fun moon gazing and star gazing, nature watching here......reminded me of my childhood days, when i had time, i would sit on the steps of my home and stare at the moon and think.....Ah!.....may be a separate post on this "Moon gazing".
hey wait, i have written a pretty long post.
For somebody, who started with "what to write"....this is a pretty lengthy one.
More on my next.....

The reason for ignoring my favorite space must be that I am hooked to my smart phone.

This republic day was a defining day for us personally, " the other man in my life" turned 18.
