Ta Da

Here I am, finally with my own blog. I have been meaning to get on with this for may be over a year now. I am slowly and steadily getting on to be a true writer. Ok! I know I've just got one article published in the local newspaper but at least, that makes me finally, feel like a writer. I was having my doubts about my talent. I've sent in a few queries and am awaiting replies.

Next week will see me in India soaking in the rains. I love the rains but am not very keen in visiting the place. I love India, but I hate the restricitions that I have to follow at my in-laws place (that is where I'll be staying). I hate the lizards and I hate the old house. It gives me the creeps. Last year when I was down there, the lizards had kept me awake almost every night. I used to sleep inside a mosquito net and these creepy crawlies would climb over the net. My hair stands on ends just remembering that dreadful night.

Hopefully, I won't have to spend much time at my in-laws, since I'll be attending my cousin's wedding. So, I can spend most of my days with my mother. It's not fair that my vacations have to be a nightmare. I have been pestering my husband to take me to Rajasthan, but he is thinking of Hyderabad. Lets see if we really would be going anywhere. I'm eager to write a travel article but the only travel that I usually do is the Journey from the bedroom to the kitchen.

Today, I'm going to relax. No hubby at home and I'll give the kids a free hand. Let them enjoy and relax too.

  1. Hey Reena,
    Congratulations on your blog! I hope you will post often and keep us updated on your writing and other adventures.

    Hope you have a good holiday in India. The monsoons can be fun or unpleasant, or both. Lizards are a pain, but cockroaches freak me out more. It makes me grateful to be living in the UK where my home is roach-free. Bliss.
