Describe your most memorable vacation. During my young man’s teen years life was really tough. Travel was hard. My second kid was also little and life kept me busy. During pandemic life started changing. My autistic son slowly started showing changes and we found travel was easy with him. 2021 May when everyone were scared…

Wishing my American friends a Happy Independence Day.

I really do not have any sleep issues. But my young man does. For me sleep therefore is a privilege. I can watch TV and sleep or be on the phone and fall of asleep. Anyhow I do not keep my phone near me while sleeping. Anyone in an emergency has to call my husband’s…

Made my 10,000 steps today! I really wanted to make 5,000 steps for my evening walk alone but after a busy evening of cooking and extreme heat just did a mile or 2500 steps. During summer it is very easy to get my 10,000 steps. But during winter, I really need to plan and put…

I remember an old Tamil movie. A person is sitting in the marriage hall watching the bride and groom tie the knot. All of a sudden, he starts crying. When asked why, he replied what would happen if the bride’s saree caught fire to the lamp that is being lit? It could spread all around…

The past three months was a lot of work at home. I had to dot a lot of I’s and cross the t’s! Multiple doctor appointments, blood draws and dental work really needed an award. Our India trip fell off the platter because of the war. That is when we decided a trip to the…

When my son came out of the samd dune trail way ahead of me he was applauded by a couple. My husband who was waiting for him didn’t even wave to the couple just whisked him off to clean him. Yesterday we checked off our 18th National Park at Gread sandunes national park and preserve.…

We are on our fifth day of road trip. I am waking up in Farmington, New Mexico. As I entered the state, I shouted out 40/50 done. My younger son is not convinced. He still thinks I have cheated with Atlanta. Yup, transitioned so many times but have not entered the city or the state…

Are there things you try to practice daily to live a more sustainable lifestyle? We are still on the road in Colorado. There is something very interesting me and my husband noticed after three full days. There are no plastic bags here in grocery stores or anywhere. Most of the roads we traveled have been…

What’s the most delicious thing you’ve ever eaten? We are staying at a tourist town. We had a very expensive medium pizza at Pizza Hut and it is going to take some time for it to digest (the price)? Atleast for the price we paid it was good. It was an all day driving day…

If not for my trip, I would say my blog would have been about the Norwegien fan’s Viking cheer at FIFA games! Ro! Ro! The weather today at Rockies felt like it was going to be a bummer! We got an early morning timed entry! We are jet lagged so got up early and found…

How important is spirituality in your life? Yesterday I wrote we are starting a road trip today. The first part of it was flying to Denver. Yes, we are in the Rocky Mountains region. A three hour flying time and you gain two hours during summer did make today extra fun. Other than known autism…

Yesterday I went to Toy Story 5 movie with both my kids. There was one dialogue “Why is the nine-year old’s room look like a 14-year old’s”? Today I had my 19-year-old picture (in a group) forwarded in the family group. I was wearing a saree, and it was my first time wearing it. I…

How do you waste the most time every day? The past two weekends, me and my husband decided to keep it free. We have an almost week long trip coming up so we decided to stay home and relax ourselves. Our local temples had so many programs for the weekend yet we skipped it all.…

Today is International Yoga Day! I attended my yoga class yesterday and did my Surya Namaskarams. Today is International Music Day! I recorded a clipping of my son singing for his therapist yesterday. Today is also Father’s Day! Got my husband a bunch of shirts. Usually, I buy this time because they are on sale.…

When I moved to the US, I was glued to the TV show The Golden Girls. My husband used to tease me saying I was missing my grandparents and that was one reason I was addicted to the same. Maybe he was right in one way, but the girls Dorothy, Blanche, Rose and Sophia were…

I am a very practical person. I am not going to say money does not bring happiness. We all need money. Nothing is free in this world. Medical field is advanced and treatments are expensive. Every penny helps and it does bring peace to our everyday life. I have a special needs adult son and…

What countries do you want to visit? Laptop has a prompt and my phone has a prompt. Love both of them! I may end up doing both the prompts. One in the morning and one before going to bed 😀! A year can change what countries I want to visit. So making a new post.…

What’s your favorite thing about yourself? I love to take little tiny steps. I can say that to be literally and figuratively. The GAP trail or the Greater Allegheny passageway connects Pittsburgh to Washington DC. In fact it is a connector to the Appalachian trail. It was the first time yesterday we walked a solid…

My second kid got me a cheesecake to celebrate my blog reaching 100,000 views. As a family we felt it was a great milestone. I love blogging every day. Other than my young man getting extra sugar and fat all fell in place for a small celebration. Thanks to all who read, like and comment.…
