Feline Musings

I nearly had an anxiety attack when my male hairdresser was actually watching “run-out” while snipping away at my very precious fewer of the few hair.

When hubby came from office, I added Bacardi white rum, and soda. The mint-leaves floated to the top, and I realized we needed straws. So we quickly walked down to the local juice shops and got two straws. We retrieved the chilling drink from the refrigerator, and sipped our way into many more years of marital bliss.

Getting up to the smell of rain hanging in the air and opening my eyes to an overclouded sky, I was as euphoric as a child, prodding hubby to get up and enjoy the morning drizzle. I quickly brewed up some coffee and hubby and I relaxed in the balcony after what seemed ages. More surprises in store!

02:20 hrs: Boisterous thunder and impending showers wake me up. The day’s laundry is still hanging out in the balcony. I must retrieve the clothes and get them into the house before the downpour starts. 
02:22 hrs: I am still in bed, procrastinating and hoping hubby will get up and bring the laundry into the house. [...]

“So, when does your husband reach home from work?” A female colleague inquired. 
“Always fifteen minutes after the dinner is ready, irrespective of when I reached home.” I answered nonchalantly.

We had spent a nice Saturday at the market place – shopping, eating out, planning a restaurant lunch for hubby’s friends who had clamored enough for a wedding treat, and we had taken our week-old i10 for its first visit to the main market hub in our city. 
We returned home tired but I was utterly [...]

Yes, I am back with more matrimonial settlement issues. Now this is one issue that my mom had warned me about - the striking of the perfect culinary chord between an herbivore and a carnivore. Hubby is a vegetarian (he eats egg – thank God for small mercies); I am a hardcore carnivore.  
In the good [...]

 Human beings have developed the concept of milestones – to keep track, to reminiscence, to celebrate, to mourn, to repair, to learn, to evolve, and mostly just for the heck of it. I have also decided to document the key milestones in the First Quarter of the First Nuptial Year of OUR life.

For the first time in my life, I have fallen in love – with a canine.  
A tiny bundle of abundant energy with a staggering fox-trot, I saw this pocket-dog at a local pet shop. Hubby and I had walked into the pet shop to catch a glimpse of fish in the aquarium. I suddenly saw [...]

I am emotional, passionate and artistic and chubby. I was empowered with this self-knowledge after reading Cheiro’s Language of the Hand. My palm has a red, full-fleshy, dome-like Venus mount which strongly asserts my emotional and passionate (read, romantic) side. I have a broad soft palm, and long fingers with conical tips, which means I [...]

Marriage comes with its own set of “tackle-it-right-now” issues. From creatively planning the stuffing in the breakfast parathas to cruelly ignoring the heap of washed clothes begging to be ironed or stashed away; I am wrestling well with time-constraints and multiferous activities in my life. The one front that I could not tackle well for quite [...]

I hear the door swish with the push of her hand as she gingerly steps in, and I know its time to come back from la-la land. My husband is already out of bed - brewing the perfect early morning tea with a dash of ginger, for self and her. We three have our first [...]

 Always remember……
Marriage and love is a daily commitment.
You must choose to love your spouse everyday.
You may wake up one day and not feel those lovey-dovey feelings,
but you must choose to love that person anyway.
It’s part of the vows you made to one another.
That’s the secret to a lasting marriage.
Respect one another & support one another.
In marriage, [...]
