So I haven't written for a while ..a lot happenened in this past month ..one of the reasons also for not writing but not an excuse ..coz after a while there is really no excuse for not writing .. while I agree there are days when you're blank but if you, like me, end up not writing for a while then even on days you have plenty to write you dont seem to be heading anywhere ..
This whole time I haven't written I've begun to understand that writing/ blogging daily involves discipline and to really enjoy it every single day its imperative to devote time to it ..not to mention the fact that I sincerely do appreciate all those people who really can write day in and day out and keep their readers involved and entertained at the same time .. and that also means I've to work on it harder !!
Now for the question where have I been ? Well ..June kicked off with me and hubs moving to a new apartment ..and with that came plenty of work / chores to be done ..Packing , unpacking , decorating , buying new stuff , settling down and blah blah blah ..you get the idea but that's not it ..infact that was just the beginning of an exciting phase ..Hardly had i settled down when plans of my sister's impending visit came to fruition and its been almost two weeks since she's been with me and I'm having the time of my life ..we've been chatting , watching tv/ movies together , playing cards , going shoppin, hitting the beach , chattin some more , cooking , laughing , fighting.. And then there was the trip to Vegas and Grand Canyon over the long weekend :)) ..details for which will be in the next post .. and hopefully there'll be plenty more good times ahead coz lucky for me she's here all this month ..Yipeee !!
So since I'm feeling all so "sisterly" I'll sign off by sharing this quote about sisters by Clara Ortega and dedicate it to my sweet seeeeesters :P
"To the outside world we all grow old. But not to brothers and sisters. We know each other as we always were. We know each other's hearts. We share private family jokes. We remember family feuds and secrets, family griefs and joys. We live outside the touch of time."
u bring, rather what u write, brings a lump to my throat sometimes.

ReplyDeleteIt's good to see you writing again. I love the quote. I think I'll put it on a scrapbook page for my sister's book. Hope the move wasn't too stressful.

I am so happy that your sister is with you and that you guys are enjoying each others company. It will be sad to see her go back to India but enjoy each other and make each moment count.
