Don't Tell Me What to Do!

How do you feel when you are told to perform your duties better? When you are constantly judged on what kind of mother are you; when you are blamed if the baby is not eating. For god sake! If the child doesn’t want to eat what am i suppose to do? The baby is almost three years old now and you cannot force her if she doesn’t want to eat. Just because I am her mother do you think I have magic wand and all I have to do is to tap it and baby will eat?

I fail to understand, what kind of cheap thrills one gets by sending other people on a guilt trips. When they just go on like a broken record...you are a bad mother...you are a selfish mother...I say FUCK YOU!!

Dude, i know what kind of mom i am; i don’t owe you an explanation. And nagging me doesn’t make you any better at parenting and If you are so upset about me not feeding her why don’t you take the plunge and do it? Oh, but then you have your reasons...right? She doesn’t eat when you try?? And what in the fucks name give you a right to nag me? Am I any different? How do you suppose that i will be able to feed her? She will eat when she wants; didn’t her doctor say the same thing?

What is it you want from me? I am tried on your mood swings; grow up and act like a mature person!

You think it’s Just-A-Party? Think Again...

God, how annoying is it when someone in your family throws a party and you are specifically told to dress up appropriately. I mean, come-on, do i tell you guys not to dress up in blinding red and green colours and wear kilos of jewellery. BTW, how do you manage to carry around those –a kilo each- danglers? What kind of adhesive do you use to avoid your ears from falling? (You have no idea how I resist the temptation to ask all this.) And have you seen those aunties who wear like layers of makeup and you can’t even make out if they are smiling or grimacing at you. And boy! Try calling them Aunty!

Anyway, so basically, they are not too happy with me turning up in my casual dresses (Mind you- nice white or light pink in cotton) and if i dare to dress up in jeans and tee or skirt, they might give orders of – Shoot at Sight!

I think, best option will be to just skip it -but i can’t even do that- danger of being chased about with a gun around the city for next year or two.  So, I will have to brave them on Saturday and I already started to have nightmares. Talk about family time...

Haven’t bought anything, so far, can’t get myself to waste 10-15k on a sari i won’t wear ever again. Guess, i will make a puppy face and ask someone from my family to lend me a sari for a night. Well, must start with zeroing on the person and then being good to her for a couple of days. Think it should do the trick.

Or will leave the list of items, i need for this party, under my pillow;  just in case god mother fairy picks dear me this time not that, her favourite,  stupid Cinderella.

Ofcourse! she loves me the most :)

So, my hubby really spoils our daughter and keeps telling her that he loves her the most. Infact, he keeps asking her : who do you love the most and then answers himself boastfully, “Daddy”; while the little one just sit there thinking, so now, how do I put some sense in his big head!!


That is not the point; the point is her first sentence, which was a couple of weeks back, was: Daddy… DHoo (read: go) away! Tada! So much for who do you love the most! bhooo

Ofcouse, she loves her Mummy dear the most, and that is incontestable, Darling. Wohoo!!

Curse you Cricket

I am unable to understand people’s obsession with cricket. Having grown up in a cricket crazy family i sometimes hate this game more than my ill fitting dresses. I still painfully remember how because of this loathsome game my brother and dad would take possession of our only TV set. Okay, i admit, i had a teeny weeny crush on Jadeja but then he was given the sack. So, my only reason to watch this game was snatched away from me.



Why this sudden rant about cricket?? Because, i am still suffering from my dad’s cricket mania. Even though i am married, thankfully not to a cricket enthusiast, dad keeps on calling me to brief me not only about india’a match or how india is doing in particular series but about anything on cricket. He calls me to discuss about Pakistan’s alleged match fixing thing. When will he ever understand his daughter doesn’t as much as know the names of our (Indian) team.

God, I know, i am going to get good piece of mind if he ever come to know about this post.

Ah- I'm a MOM Now

It has been pretty long since i have not written to you dear blog. I m sorry for keeping my life secret from you;you know I am happy to be a mom, most of the times, but you know it is little difficult to get used to run around someone all the time try to understand what my child wants when her vocabulary is limited to DADA . Plus i don’t have right on a minute of my time anymore :(. it is difficult but at the same time there is a great satisfying feeling in raising someone who is a part of me. So the love is unconditional. I know it sounds like cliché but unconditional love gives greatest satisfaction and pleasure better than having a shot of ecstasy (no i have never tried it)


All in all my decision of having a child so early in our marriage, while my husband wanted to wait for another four years, was not that wrong. i am not like this. don’t you? :D. But as you are about to know i have become a mom now (mixed feelings). So i was busy looking after my little one. She is almost eleven months old and already a handful. phewwww. anyway i am going to be regular again going to share my feelings, happiness, vent my anger here and little bit of gossiping as usual.

I Had Three Weddings in Nine Months!

Well, no i am not exaggerating, i really have had three wedding in last nine months. of course with the same guy. :) He is the cutest person and i love him the most so why look for different guys for every time i got married. Our first wedding was in April.11. 2008 - The Court marriage. Then we had a Himachali wedding, Nov.24.08, according the rituals of Himachal(my home town, followed by wedding by Manipuri costumes , Dec.14.08, ( grooms hometown). I got the chance to wear two beautiful wedding dresses. ( for court marriage i wore simple suit) Weddings were wonderful, now the only problem is which date should we celebrate our anniversary on?? :-/

Nothing can kill a girl's love for shopping :)

The whole weekend I was down with fever. But it failed to stop me from going out shopping. My husband gifted me a very pretty Mangalsutra, which I will start wearing after our marriage in Himachal, according to Himachali rituals. Hey don’t get confused we are already married, we had our court marriage in April this year. But you know parents!

I even had to pop some medicine on our way home, which we took from the nearest chemist, and it almost knocked me off for the whole night. When I woke up in the morning I was hysterical. It was 10:30 am and I though its Monday. But then my husband calmed me down and reminded me that it is only Sunday. It took me 5 minutes to believe him.
Anyway, nothing can kill a girl’s love for shopping. On Sunday, too I went out shopping with mom. Though, I did not get a thing for my self and as Saturday i had to take medicine.( this time i took paracetamol)
Oh yeah, we even celebrated dad’s birthday at 12 midnight.:) A day in advance! We all were thinking it is Oct. 7. :D, we made him cut the cake on 6th and even made him believe that his birthday is on 6th. :)

All in all my weekend was wonderful.
:)

Wonderful Days

Saturday and Sunday were wonderful days. I woke up at around seven in the morning, mom had just come from himachal, after receiving a warm hug and having a cup of tea, we started chatting.

We kept on chatting till afternoon, then I left home to meet a friend, we were planning to go for a movie, but we missed, and I don’t regret it. We had a wonderful time together, and after having dinner together and I come home with a good note and promise to meet tomorrow. Come tomorrow and I was again busy talking to my dad , mom and then watching Harry potter.




I met my friend around 3pm and we went straight to watch “Because I said so” I knew its not going to be a fun movie and that my friend is not going to like it but with the kind of movies are on air , I thought this is the safest bet but hmmmm….i was wrong.

Still a fantastic and full of fun this weekend was, come to think of it almost all my weekends are full of fun. Even though I was having differences with my friend (BF to be correct) but the weekend made me forget every thing as he made me feel so loved, so all the things become trivial.
