My stories, My way
The weather is getting warmer and there is spring in the air. All that is lifting up my mood and my spirit. September was fun! Even though spring had not quite sprung, I was able to do a few things in the delightful company of some wonderful people. September was also marred by anti-immigration or…
My birthday month is always busy and always lit. It is also the birthday month of my best friend and my son making it extra special. It was busy but I am so grateful for the love surrounding me. When you are busy with joyful things, it means that you are loved. And I feel…
June was cold! Winter had fully set in and it was freezing some days. Or possibly, my older bones creak in winter. The cold though didn’t deter my social life. In fact, to ensure that the cool weather has no impact, I ventured out more than I usually do. My month started with watching the…
May – you were busy, there was no may about it 🙂 It started with a bang with dear friend Kala turning 50! It was a much anticipated party and was made even more memorable as they hired a bus to take us to the city. The night was so much fun and I had…
