There are situations when one cant help but go through them. Staying away from home and especially that too away from parents is all together a different set of emotions. Parents visiting your place is always a nice change but their departure; never a good sight. I believe this is how life is. Win some; [...]

The web esp the blogging world seems to be a fair distance since moving to Isloo. I wonder is this what I was chasing for sometime. Working over 10 hours a day for 5 days. The weekend seems to whizz past me. Family life seems no where. The kids stay home all day waiting.. I [...]
