In the Bloghouse

Pssssssssst I have a secret that I wanna share with you… I have been diagnosed with an illness called FIMS aka Foot In Mouth Syndrome. I’ve tried many times to get over this, with mind-over-matter techniques, herbal remedies and even self awareness classes online, but to no avail.

Trying to soothe a friend who was dumped by some loser dude I listened to her rant and rave about his meanness for some time and then advised her with “forget him, there are many more fish in the sea.” Needless to say that was FIMS playing havoc again which nearly earned me a black eye! All she needed was some hand holding during this period and I advocated the “move on” mantra.

Since this has proven time and again to be the bane of my existence, I have decided to do something and get this out of my system ASAP. The first step that I’m going to do is curb my enthusiasm about juicy news that I hear and refrain from spilling the beans to the person being gossiped about! Crappy feeling, but I have to try… need to nip the virus in the bud.

Gonna move on from the topic and many more FIM stories or I may just land in the doghouse! So gonna blog about … well Fridays…the one day in the week that shows promise being the end of the week. Hmmm, I can hear the snide comments from my pals “So what Yas you work from home how does it matter? You don't have to travel and experience the bad roads, blah blah…” Yeah right! The only downer is that before I know it Sunday evening looms near and I am back to manic Monday. Mondays another story altogether – perky if I have completed all the pending work, but if not, then, I am in a soup.

Talking about soup, the other day I made chicken soup for the family who seemed to appreciate the gesture and (ahem) the soup. But let me say that after the first bowl no request for a second was on the way! Boo hoo! Got on their case (fake tears and all) and sobbed “I slog over a hot stove and you don’t appreciate it ….” Awww! Moral of the story – chicken soup ain’t always good for the bowl! Heh heh!

So my lovelies guess you know I’m going nowhere with this post (like I do otherwise?) so I’m gonna sign off now. Remember today’s Friday……………………
XOXO

Water Woe

Here’s a problem about the water scene that’s plaguing our city with the authorities taking a lackadaisical attitude about our woeful situation. Guess privatization of this inactive force needs to be the hour of the day. What say? The heat at this time of the year in Feb is rather pinching and I really wonder what it’s gonna be like in the coming months. Here’s hoping that some rain will give us a breather and in consequence fill the reservoirs and enable the water man to actually attend to our ardent need. Moving on from the tale of gloom, with the onset of summer it’s time for the sleek and svelte to don the most happening items in vogue and show off their splendid bods. To the rest of us metabolically slow, we trudge the path of heat with the longing that this brand of ‘exercise’ (or lack of it) would shed the unwanted girth! Anyways, it’s a good time I guess both ways, coz everyone maybe a winner because..........the heat is on! ....... but not the ones with lack of water...

Cheating

Why do people throw good relationships for a quick roll in the hay? This practice seems to be growing and practically every second person in a committed relationship doesn’t think twice about two timing his/her partner. However, when they are “found out” these individuals don’t think twice about promising the moon and once forgiven you can be pretty sure that they are gonna do (sic) the deed again and again. I think that once they go the entire hog, they just aren’t gonna curb their enthusiasm! Cheaters know their partners will relent no matter what. They preen themselves with having “won”! However, if a person cheats on me, I would tell the jerk to beat it. Rather be single, keep your dignity intact than stick with some douche bag. Not my cuppa … What about you my lovelies?

Happy Birthday Mama Mary

I sit here thumping away on the keyboard wondering about what to write and it dawns on me…… Many years ago when I was a young girl I was approached by a lady in Church to play the role of Mother Mary. She wanted to put up this enactment about the apparition of Mary to a group of children. I did not know who the person was and was surprised - my first thought was to decline as I was extremely shy. However, she did not pressurize me and instead asked me to think about it and after doing so and sharing it with the folks, I accepted the role. This play went on for about fifteen minutes but they were the best moments of my life. Many years have gone by…but this wonderful memory remains with me always. However, I feel sad at the number of people who do not acknowledge Our Lady. Jesus said “Son this is your mother and mother this is your son” and thus we embrace Mary as our blessed mother. She, as any mother, helps us with our problems, intercedes on our behalf and in return we than...

That Sexy Piece of Covetousness

She felt dreadful about what she did – she never meant to go all the way. In fact, she loved the way things were – she was glowing. Looking good for all to see was evident. Investing in a relationship was all that she believed in … why oh why, did she give into that impulse and travel the rocky road of cheating, she thought. The advice from the friend circle was the same, get up, get going and do not let one stray incident spoil things. It was easy for them she thought, she had to live with the ramifications. She had invested a great deal of time and money not to mention the effort that she put into the relationship. This indulgence cost her plenty. She could not turn back time! What was she to do? Tell him or keep quiet. That unbridled passion was playing havoc with her every step of the way. In some strange way, she did enjoy the excitement of this cat and mouse game. She felt alive again after such a long time. She knew that she gave into temptation but the sheer pleasure that came...

Narrow Path

When I look at your arms on the cross stretched wide Your eyes filled with love encouraging us to drop the divide But no matter which way we trudge You love everyone without even the slightest grudge. Temptations all around enticing us with its wares How do we ignore these pangs and stop its glares? Many ridicule us because of the road we follow Help us set an example and travel the path of straight and narrow.
