Seven months and a new life !

Seven months is a long time by many standards. I was wondering whether my link had expired. Writing, I think is now a luxury. I am now a couple and settling down, working on the family chores.

To say the least, the start is interesting. Seldom have we both got time to just sit and idle the time away. I used to be dead idle some part of the day everyday when I was single. It seems as if our mind can adapt to anything on its way. It can automatically adjust to any routine, any conditions, as long as its owner wants to.

Some stark differences between THEN and NOW :
* I now have a lover
* I used to go home everyday at 12, now 12 is gone in the dreams, well, almost ;).
* I recognize now that time is more than money and good health is a must.
* Then, I thought I had enough money and worried about the rent being high. Now, money is never enough, pay 3 times the rent and feel that the rent is OK
* I can choose sarees, chudidars faster than my own dresses! I think Shubha likes my taste, and hopefully thats why she takes me along
* I used to wonder 'why' when a guy and girl held hands while walking. I thought it makes walking difficult. I now know why.
* I now love cooking, espicially cutting the vegetables. Its the best part.
* Am proud of driving away two rats from home

Time flies past like anything now. It feels great to catch up on so many things on the blog-net.
I was also happy today to discover that even Sudha has its e-version at www.sudhaezine.com, Mayura at http://mayuraezine.com and Prajavaani at www.prajavaniepaper.com.
And don't miss to read the Nov 2 edition of Sudha.

PS : The title earlier was'Seven months' and Shubha felt that the title was misleading. So changed it to mislead even more :)

Vedu, good to see you back! You were one of the people who inspired me to take up blogging (Not sure how many people may be cursing you for that right now ;)) and it was sad when you had stopped blogging. I always believe that there is never enough money, time or RAM. So, not finding time coz of cutting vegetables and going for a walk should not be your excuses for not blogging :D

Hope to see you more regularly in blogosphere!

Vedu,
I hate you for writing this. Now Rupa wants me to cut vegetables! I dont have a problem with that in principle but... :). Anyway, welcome back (everybody seems to be saying this) although I didnt miss u. Rupa pointed me to this article and I had to read it :). I have to admit though its very well written and very true :).
