Well… here I am, back after a month or so long a gap! I am back from my vacation and I am really glad that it is finally over. I can’t believe it was the worst vacation I ever had. My advice to anyone with a baby “If you think a vacation is what you need, stay where you are!”. Really, all that I had wanted was to rest and what I got was that I had been working twice more than I had been before my vacation. I came back more tired than I had been and I have even lost a couple of pounds ( no, not in the nice sense… I already lost my pregnancy weight months ago. I am now close to being underweight!) Anyway, Dane had fallen sick and he had lost weight too. He is back to normal now…but it was a bad experience for the both of us. The day we returned the very next day, my father went off on a business visit and my sister came to live with us. Dane is crazy about her and he… err how should I put it… drove us crazy. We were both running around all through the day and bedtimes were nightmares. Last week, Dad returned and with him came my youngest sister. They all moved back to there place and then my Husband went on his business visit. He is still away and will returned by the end of the week. The youngest sister is staying with us and now, once again, we are all going crazy!
I did manage to tat a bit in India and that was the only nice outcome of the vacation because eversince I have returned, I haven’t done any tatting at all. I am on the final round of the Pretty Doily Tat-along ( I am sure everyone else have finished by now) and there are still seven more repeats left. I feel like I am spinning around all day. Precisely, I feel like an electron spinning out of orbit…. zing…zing…ting…tang…ouch…ouch..you know? Really, I am working all day and the work just doesn’t move. I am physically all drained off my energy and mentally I feel sore (‘sore’ like blue with a lot of ‘ouch ouch’). I love my son and his smile lights me up and renews me all the time but I just don’t know what it is that is driving me crazy. I am so aching for some me time. I can’t believe I had to stay up till 4am to tat and listen to some music! Really…these days, I have no time for things that I really want to do. I sometimes worry that I can land myself in to depression or something like that if I don’t do stuff that I enjoy. May be it is because I have guests living with us all the time that I feel so busy or may be it is that I need to sort things out because I definitely don’t have a routine in my life. I am sure that if I can sit down and plan it all, I can have time for everything. There was a time when I wanted some change… now, I want a routine. May be if I plan things out … you know like blogging on certain days…and so on then things will work… I wonder how you guys work… Do you plan out your days or is your life already working smoothly? Love ya all…
