Ah!!! back finally

Before I begin, here is wishing you all very happy ( belated) New year. I am sorry for not updating my blog. Life has been pretty hectic the last few weeks.

Here is a recap of my 2007
Absolutely good part
* I completed 2 years of stay in Canada and I can go back home by next December. Someone once said, the longest way is the way near home! I just can’t wait for this year to be over. I am looking forward to going back home.

*I managed to travel to Alaska( part of the 25 things I wanted to do before I die).

*I learned to KNIT. When I had pneumonia and had to take bed rest, I was bored. I got my friend to teach me how to knit. So far I knitted 4 scarfs and a toque for Yaya.

The bad part.

* Car accident.
*Pneumonia
*Norwalk infection
*I still can’t skate. I have been trying to learn to skate for months. Those who started with me have already finished the three level course. I am still in level 1 ( I get a wagon to push around the skating rink!)

The worst part.

* I can’t beat the procrastination habit of mine. I still have a gift I bought for a friend’s niece when the baby was born almost 15 months ago. I never got a chance to go to the post office and post it!
I also didn’t get a chance to post any of the Christmas cards last year.

Neither good, bad or terrible part.
My youngest sister turned 30 couple of days ago.
As I look back, I see a child with motta thala and kontha pallu. Now she is a beautiful, successful woman.
I so much want to reach out and hold her hands, like we used to when we walked to school every morning.
I wish life has been simple, that people never changed.
Instead, I sit here, wishing for a miracle. That my family will be together at least once in my life time.
I still wait for the happy tomorrow, though that tomorrow seem so elusive.

Here is hoping that my dreams of a happy family will come true one day.

Have to do some chores tomorrow. Will update the blog on Wednesday.
