Marking the end of half the year and only Europeans survive the World Cup Semis...

We are now left with 4 European teams; quite unsure about who would lift the 2006 cup! Now that crowd favortites- Brazil ,Argentina and England are off , Italy was the only predictable win!

Theirry Henry and Klose remain my heroes as France and Germany enter the semis of FIFA World Cup 2006. My new hero is Ricardo who without doubt proved Portugese are better off than the English team.

Crippled by the loss of a crying and injured Beckham and aggressive Rooney; the team couldnot even take advantage of couple of tense penalty shots by the Portugese! At 3-1; we soon had a whole bunch of England supporters crying at the loss ....The following match was also quite a surprise win as Brazil are still considered the best team!I hope to see re-run of the Brazil vs. France match before I comment on the match....

On the other hand, half of 2006 has already passed by while I think I was just getting used to the year 2006.Now when I look back- I did finally get my car windows tinted, got a new wallet, frames; so I think I did manage to keep up with my list! Need to make a new one now!

Wishing all Goodluck for the rest of year...before we know it we will soon be wishing the best for 2007!! eeks....scares me when time flies soooo fast!

Rare Snow day! 01/10/2021

 After a grilling 2020, 2021 started out with a mixture of emotions - grim but hopeful, distant from family but long WhatsApp calls, rainy but looking forward to the sunshine in the coming days. A lot of R&R is how we started our New Years, thanks to the long weekend. We read, watched tv, cooked and slept a lot!  Once work started, it didn't even feel very different from the past few weeks. Unfortunately a few days into the first working week, there was chaos in the DC Capitol and many State Capitols. A riot started by an infuriating and possibly out-of-work men and women wanting to display their passionate support of an incapable President. Back to feeling uncertain and grim about the future, we were surprised by Mother Nature providing us a rare snow fall day here in Austin, TX! It was simply amazing and a great 2nd Sunday of the year where we got 3.5-4 inches of snow ! The sights were remarkable during and after the snow fall. The entire city and neighbors were thrilled...

On to the next chapter of life

This post is a long time coming... I don't need to give any excuses though, I am a new mommy after all! After all that baking, my munchkin arrived on 20th September 2013...yes very much on time baby! The first 5 days were extremely stressful as my precious one was under monitoring in NICU, which meant I didn't have the luck of holding him close to me in the first few hours and also a lot of separation due to us being in different rooms...it was certainly difficult. But as far as I recall I didn't cry at all since he was doing great and was perfectly healthy. He confused the doctors with his heart pattern in the first 2 hours of his life and then came back to normal on his own. I strongly believe he didn't take labor process well and certainly not the pushing part... poor little baby. After we got clearance from all his tests (God is great!) ; we were allowed to take him home. It was a feeling beyond words, a realization of how lucky we all were as a family and with...
