2024 is here!
Every year, without fail, the beginning of the year always has, and always will (till am alive) start with a happy note – and that would be my birthday. This year I turned 42. My brain twin (JEN) is also born this month (16th) and turned 54 (or thereabouts, I think). We celebrated it together […]
Dec 31st, 2023
Definitely a highlight of the year. Let’s sum the year. What do I recall most about the year that just went by? Well, I got too see Swati n Arya go to India. That left me alone. I made a huge mess of the place, unable to clear up the house in time as the […]
CHIRS HOLIDAY PARTY 2023
Happy holidays! And much heartfelt thanks to BIST and CHIRS for organizing a lovely evening for our community. Was a bit sad to see no family/friend join me, but well you can’t ask for a lot. Happy to be alive and kicking. Had a fairly busy day, that started with a lunch visit to DT […]
A fantastic day!

Arya’s Winter Wonderland performance!
Today, Dec 9, 2023, was the BIG day for Arya (our very own, young ballet dancer) her Mama, Papa, Aja-Maa and dearest sister Momo… and so many of our friends (behind the scene). Of the many things I would like to remember, unfailingly, of the endless weekends we have gone to PEGASUS for Arya’s weekly […]
So how did you wake up?
That’s a lovely question again. I happened to wake up, in many ways very similar to how my daughters came in to this World. They cried and were angry, till their Mother’s touch. It conveyed something very basic and beautiful to my kids. And yes, I too was lucky enough to have been blessed with […]
Brain Twin!
Not that it means anything at all to you, but to me it’s literally the world. To meet JAN at CHIRS, and find out that we had so much in common. Wow! All-in-all she had the same surgery in her brain like I did, and faced same challenges like I did, and was saved and […]
That SIGN you look for
As I see, India the Cricket team, on Nov 19, 2023, lose from it’s biggest modern day rival (6 time CWC winners – AUS), at Narendra Modi cricket stadium in Ahmedabad, India, it gives me a huge sense of joy, to see a mammoth country like India lose – all 1.4 billion pairs of eyes […]
