Its been such a long time since I've made it up to here and truly missed typing away all the thoughts and recaps of events!

Probably will be the best month of the year! I visited family after 2 long years and being at home and those familiar places are just so refreshing and welcome ! Finally got to see the Chennai beaches, was lucky to re-visit family temples and got to take dh to DXB! We made it to the desert safari, Qds, new malls & resort and the took some patel shots during the trip ! Dad's 60th birthday function and celebrations went well and it was painful to come back here. It was also our 2nd wedding anniversary the same day! (I know, 2 years just flew by). Also, we got bumped upto first class on our flight from SFO and that just added to the whole excitement from the beginning! :-)
Most of it was just settling back on the long weekend, crying about having to go back to work and getting papers done to begin a possible education plan. All the boring stuff are back to place and yes, we are now back to routine! sob! Watched some crap movies -The Proposal and Funny People, totally lacking substance...on the good side, it was Varalakshmi Puja, my 3rd time conducting the ritual and every time I get points to improvise on the next year's puja. This month is also the beginning of regular carpool that has added to convenience and saving some time and the best part being conversing ! I do miss my reading, but now that I've to gear up for education, I will have a lot of undesired reading to do anyways!
May

August has been good so far, picked up at work, recovered from home sickness, got accepted by Board to take up a qualification, been cooking and eating more home made food, organized a potluck at home and partied once. watched couple of good movies back to back last night -- The Bank Job and Righteous Kill. I recommend both, if you haven't seen these yet. I loved them both ! Al Pacino is a favorite too.
Hope to ramble more often with details !
