of new years

i love those times in a year when one can freely look back, sum up things and get retrospective. birthdays are one such occasion and the other one is the year enders. like this one.
this year for me has been one that brought with it the joys of seeing netra turn in to a chatter box-motor-mouth kid who actually started to behave her age and the naughtiness quotient touched new heights. it has been remarkable in terms of the new things that netra has brought home in the form of never-ever-heard-before nursery rhymes and songs. and we are thankful for them because i can cope with them better than the cockroaches and big black ants, dead and at times alive, that she would often bring like the prized catch.
the year has been a good one in terms of work as well. freelanced (still to get paid but what the heck) i hv managed to loose the grumpiness somewhat. managed an outing. a break from the usual suspects. watch a few movies that i had been wanting to see for a while (x-men origins: wolverine. started gym which has been a boon when i have been able to keep up with it. most importantly felt a little less stressed and that has shown in a positive way as i am not enetring the new year coughing and wheezing.
on the downside though netra was beginning to get this asthamatic thing but with the help of a visit to PGI i think we have managed to rope it in.
made a new friend, got in touch with a couple of old ones. spoke to joycee for the first time after leaving dilli. she has been blessed with a girl. the gang- all of us have daughters with shagufta leading the pack.
samiha, netra, raga, jiya! all adding joy to our lives.

so as this year ends on a high note, lets just hope that the coming year brings in health, happiness, energy and all things good in its tow. cheers!
