The Monkey saga..



A man enters our neighbouring house, Brings a ladder mount it on their wall and begins to look suspiciously all around. I was watching this from our window yesterday while playing with my baby.

I knew our neighbours were out of town, then who was this man a burglar or may be some criminal (No thankfully I did not thought that he was a terrorist). Ok I have to be a good citizen now, I grabbed my camera and began to take random photos of him and of the suspected crime site (aka of the ladder mounted on wall ;) ) The person went on the road and disappeared from the sight.

And while I was standing at the window waiting for him to return, I saw tree in our compound shaking. Puzzled I went to see, and whops....a huge monkey jumps out of it! I just freaked out, from where the hell this monkey came from. I instantly closed the widow and look around for my baby, ya she was fine, cycling her legs vigorously...

Monkey was now sitting on the compound, my Camera was handy... I was shaking with fear but still I managed to click two photographs!






And then I saw, this monkey had a baby too, in her arms. And at that moment fear disappeared and a feeling of empathy overwhelmed me. The monkey then jumped on the road and as it did one more small monkey came out from same tree and followed its mother. They went into the house in front of us. I watched them with bit of concern as they climbed and got disappeared in trees.

The monkey did not appear again, but I can still remember the way the monkey mother was holding her child. I hope they can reach at some safe place away from city.

Oh yes and about the suspected criminal, our neighbours are painting there house. He turned out to be a painter!

Welcome..


One fine day, when I was in midst of changing the nappy of my baby and trying to calm down her hysterical crying, my husband intervenes.

Husband: Why don’t you start a blog?
Me: ugh?
Husband: I think you should start a blog.

Me: Really?? (Trying to position my baby to give a burp)

Husband: Ya you always want to start a blog and now that we have a
baby, you have experience to share.

Me: umm ok, let me think. (Rapidly thinking: Now what’s his motive behind this blog thing...)

Whatever his motive was, I did think about this blog thing. Not a bad idea to blog my experiences as a new mom and eventually as a new person (Ya you do rediscover yourself as a new person, when you have a baby).

And so I start this blog today exactly when my daughter turns two month old J

Cheers for her...Cheers for the blog!
