My son had his first outdoor party, and after a long time, he really enjoyed the time out with his friends. I think this was the first party that…

What personal belongings do you hold most dear? What are examples of personal belongings? Every member in a family owns things that belong to that individual only.

Today afternoon, my son made a home run. Yes, without much prompting or people dragging him, my boy was able to run around a field. It took him less than a minute to accomplish that task. He hit the ball and made a quick walk around the bases. He was also able to do the…

A few months ago, I blogged about wanting to start doing some online courses. True to my word, I did register myself and started doing non-credit courses. I chose courses that were interesting. In fact, I really am enjoying this online journey. I do not know how much monetary benefit it would give me, but…

The weather was chilly this morning. It did not deter us from our morning walk. We walked on a trail. We walked nearly 3.5 miles. It was a flat surface with no ups and downs. Maybe this would be our trail for this summer goal: a 10-kilometer walk. I have to keep emphasizing this goal, since…

What’s a job you would like to do for just one day? When I saw this prompt, I remembered a movie where a person was challenged to be the state’s chief minister for the day. I was young and the movie really excited me😊. That person did a fantastic job on his first day but…

This week, a blogger asked about how we socialize. I did answer the question, saying we do it at our local temple. Anyway, I then realized there was something we have been doing for the past seven years that has helped us socialize with our boy. We have been going for a walk every day.…

Do you vote in political elections? I cast my first vote in India as an Indian citizen when I turned 18. After becoming a US Citizen, I have voted couple of times during Presidential elections.

When I finished my A to Z challenge, I made a vow. I decided I would use my laptop to blog and my new digital camera to take pictures. It looks like, it is going to be some time before I get the hang of those on a regular basis. I now have a new…

For the last day of my challenge, a tough letter, the letter Z, I could have just gone with my travels to the zoo. I could have even added a picture of a zebra, and it would have been wonderful. It would have satisfied my need to write about a place that begins with the…
