riding their bikes
eating dinner together

till it was bed time
then the jagda started...
the girls wanted the boy OUT

I had a busy n fun filled weekend.
Saturday... hung out with some 12 pals n their kids. Hiked to view this spectacular site off a 400+ ft ridge at Lake Minnewaska... it was SO a la 'Pandora n the Jake choosing his flying dragon' location.




tall tall bleached white from the sun rocky cliff face....
sparkling aqua blue green waters..
lush lush green green woods surrounding.
God's work.. is amazing.
first me.. n now this! ;)

made this HORRIBLE puli-sadam for a picnic lunch... n got kidded endlessly by my pals.
'puli-biryani'...'tiger-biryani'...'u need to get a patent on this stuff' ...
the snarks were spewing!
good company... endless laughs.
everyone lapped up the kaa-thoo-spicy-tiger-stuff nevertheless!
*thtz how frikkin popular i am*

drive back...rode in the back seat with r & r and played silly games with silly bandz... n gummy bears... biting one head off n sticking it on another colored gb's body.

didn't get home till late nite... had a glass of wine n chilled some.

had a lazy n good food filled Sunday...

n i still feel ... empty inside.

i need to head to fb... its cheaper than therapy!

another year...

older... any wiser?

nope!
was a wimp... stayed a wimp... REFUSE to be wimp no more!

all insensitive bullshooters can kiss my a$$... starting NOW!

Shopping = Happiness

WTF is it about retail therapy?

i've been feeling the blues of late... and when a dear pal asked me to help shop, for her upcoming summer vacation in India... I JUMPED!

n last few days has been AWESOME! just getting out of the house feels great!
the 2 of us have similar likes n work SO well together... in burning $'s.... :P

kids summer wear...shoes... bags... dresses... accessories... make up.... lingerie... we worked it ALL... n in just 4 days!

not to forget the lazy lunches over life's whines... E!

i LOVE her style of shopping... she doesn't think 2x ...
like it? ... buy it!

that'z how life should be.
like it? live it!
else ... move on.

June

I love this month
the weather is great
the sun is out
it meant 'back to school'... back home in India
n mostly 'coz... its my b'day month

i totally believe ... i am special.
the endless phone calls...the emails...the presents...the cakes...dinner plans
all make me feel super special

but the last 2 years... i had totally unhappy bday's
partly coz i brought it on myself...
I let my expectations... play spoil sport :(

so...i've learnt in the years i've walked this planet...
money... wealth...nor prized possessions...
will bring me happiness or the mental peace i SO crave

so this year... n in the years to come...
