- The cleaning is mostly done. It took a good 10 days . This included washing the curtains, washing the tiles, s crubbing the floors, cleaning out the cupboards. I am so impressed with myself. The only thing that I did not dare to touch were Ansh's toys. Had hubby been a little more helpful, I would have had the courage to do even that.
- Yesterday we put up the Bandanwars & lights at night . So much fun
- The cracker bursting has started in full swing. We do it almost every night. No noisy crackers though. Just fuljharis, anars & chakris. Ansh is over the moon.
-I've bought a whole lot of new stuff to decorate the house thsi Diwali. Candle stands, lanterns, a new bed cover, show pieces etc. I am so looking forward to putting it all up on Diwali.
-I also got myself a rock. Oh yes, it's slightly less than a carat but I had been lusting after a solitaire for ages. So I took the plunge. It's my Dhanteras & Diwali gift to myself :)
-To top all of the above, I've been upto my neck in office work. That explains my absence from the blog for a while. I've a long office tour coming up next week for 10 days to Pune & UK. Yes, it'll be my first trip outside Asia & I am so excited. Not that I'll get any time off to look around. But I'll try to make the most of whatever hours I can snatch away after work. This trip means hardwork- I've been up several nights working on reports & stuff. Phew......seems like college exam days all over again.
- Ansh is doing well & so is the baby. I am feeling good & energetic *touch wood*
Wishing all a very happy Dhanteras today. Diwali is one festival which really perks me up. Wishing it has the same effect on all of you. :)
