see saw fads

Whats it now,a month or more,not sure,but some of the blogging in me went out of the window.Not surprising really considering how everyone I know asks me what my latest fad is.The annoying thing is that the question is accompanied with a knowing smile which really says...oh well we never expected her to stick to anything for long.Considering I have stuck to jobs a lot more than others and stuck to husband for years and years,all this is a bit unkind.

Alright lets give all my friends and well wishers the benefit of doubt,and tell everyone what the fads have been.Started with learning tanjore painting which fell by the wayside the moment it graduated into craft.Hate messing around with glue and paint and stuff like that.A Faber castel pencil with soft lead is just for me.Doodling is more my thing.

Then it was this blog which I couldn't get enough of so I wrote and wrote and felt good.Never mind that no one reads it but its good for my soul to know that all this is being recorded for posterity.Then life took a bad turn and turned busy and the corporate cat was reduced to corporate rat and then the race started in full earnest,so the blog went for a toss until today when I discovered I had a mew left in me.

The last two months have been about getting out of bed at 5.30 am and dashing off to the gym.Its resulted in my feeling lighter and more energetic and very proud of myself.The tragedy is that its all motivated by guilt.Because the arrangement is that a friend picks me up,I hate to let her down so off I go.On days I need to pick her up its the same story....guilt.And to think guilt is a negative emotion.Don't know how long it will last but there are a set of clothes in my cupboard from the thin days that are waiting for me.

That's about the current obsession,fad whatever.
