10 days after my previous post, as I was lulling away at a
resort in BR Hills, celebrating our 4th anniversary, Pranathi
called. Pranathi, who was initially and went on to become one of my closest
pals over the years along with arguably being my sister and/or sister-in-law.
She shared with us the good news of her wedding proposed to
be held in December of the year. The news, along with making me want to get
back to Bangalore immediately, also marked my calendars busy for all weekends
for the rest of the year.
The last 6 months we have be submerged in wedding
preparation and with 2 other weddings in the family in the mean time, I have had
very little time to spare.
So I am back here at the brink of new year hoping that the
coming year will see more posts than any of the previous. This year, I drifted
from the usual rut of resolutions and decided to make a progress chart.
I have made a table similar to the attendance sheet at
school. Only in place of the names, I have the list of things that I plan to do.
Every day that I carry out an activity, I will mark a tick against the date.
That way, at the end of each month, I can see tangible progress and also work
out a plan at including items in my schedule, that I have ignored. There are no
goals on the list, just tasks.
So my list doesn’t read “Lose Weight”. But it sure has “Exercise
for 30 minutes” and “Eat healthy”. I have also included “Write” on the list
though not specifically mentioning the blog.
So looking forward to a year full of moves in the right direction
and also a fun-filled year with Baby A starting to express by words. More on
him in my next post!
Happy New Year 2014!!
