Time ....so precious

It's Thanksgiving tomorrow and I have time to write a blog. I guess that says a lot. The only thing I'm looking for in the 4 day break from routine life is some rest and some fun to go along with it. Travelling? Me?....absolutely not as I plan to wear my PJ's all day ,rest my feet on the recliner and forget the time. I have been collecting a few books in the past year and they deserve to be read in peace.I hope to find that peace in the next few days.

I had been busy with an assignment for the past 3 months and have almost finished it. Working on it all the time subconsciously has indeed exhausted me and now I am waiting for the results. But till then my goal is to keep myself distracted and not think about it.So what am I thinking to keep myself distracted??.....Here's a choice list
-Shopping....mmmmm....yea shopping rocks especially in thnxgiving!
-Read the books on my shelf....yea why not
-Bake! Bake ! I lovvee baking......cupcakes?
-Cook....YES! Buy a new Crock Pot....and experiment with the recipes.By December holidays...hope to be a pro with a few recipes.
-Improve my cardio fitness.....yea....yea...not bad.
-Not to forget...Mamma Mia and Lion King....NOT TO BE MISSED!!!
-If it snows....Shovel my car out ;-)

Now with enough things to do, I just realized I AM a BUSY person.2009 is almost done and I have absolutely no idea how it flew by. The time that we have is so precious but we hardly acknowledge it. I was distracted for most of the year and the year passed by as if I was in a daze. It's winter again and the talks for a next conference have surfaced again. I see myself staring at things which I think I just did. But clearly things around me are different and remind me of the time. The time that is so precious but wasted...by me? Wasted doing what?

But I hope to use my time wisely henceforth.At least not waste it by being in a daze.My list of things to do will keep me busy and the new plans I wish to materialize will keep me hopeful.
Use time wisely!!

Be brave, Love life

Seeking Happiness

I am writing back again after ages. The reason....I was plain busy. Anything interesting?....No the same old life but trying to live it the exciting way.

Some things needed some extra attention....like my LC machine for one which has been down for a month now.My car....dents just happen and need to be fixed and third ...myself.To get on with a normal life and balancing out the work-personal time tug of war, ultimately got myself enrolled in a swanky gym in the neighborhood.

Diwali was fun and hoping to have a good Thanksgiving. Nothing fancy... no guests I look forward to having,nothing thrilling. But trying not to be gloomy. As someone aptly said about me," You seek unhappiness....get over things"

Not that I took that comment to heart or 100% believed in it but yea I 'm keeping up with my life and not letting boredom drown me. And if you call that seeking happiness....then yes I am seeking happiness :-)

Be Brave,Love Life
