Where have I been?

Well, I have been around....doing more of the same. Working a little, but mainly raising two kids, living each day as it comes, soaking up all the little moments...and some big ones too.

The husband has finally finished his MBA program after two and a half long years. For the first time after two and a half years, I have him all to myself over the weekends. The feeling is yet to sink in and I am still exploring the myriad range of possibilities with this one ;)

What started as a playful 'let's see if we can get in' kind of thing became much bigger than we could ever have imagined. Life has changed substantially from the June of 2008 when the husband first decided to get into the program. The loss of a parent, birth of a child, a job and house change. I doubt if anyone less level-headed than the husband could have handled it and made it look so easy. Still, I am glad it is over and hopefully, we can look forward to the next phase of our lives.

I dont know what he learnt at IIM. But now, weekends are spent doing management-y and strategic things such as this.....

Ahh welcome back. Nice to see you blogging again. Sure it must have been damn tough. I have seen how much grilling goes on in an MBA. Have fun now. How are the kids doing??

Thanks Sumana. And yes I know it must have been tough on the husband though he didnt let much of it show, bless him! The kids are doing fine and dandy, thanks for asking :).

I am extremely happy for the MBA earned from IIM by your hubby. In the photograph above, the little Princess is missing.

Swati: Thanks...that was the idea when we started...that the 2.5 years would pass anyway :)

mniamma: Hoping to update more frequently this time around!

Raju mama: The reason the hubby and kuttan are seen sitting so peacefully and 'building' something is because lil princess is not around....if she were, we would see the pieces flying in the air and the husband and kuttan in a mad scramble trying to salvage it all :D
