Like a Garden in Fantasyland.....

On Tuesday evening, we got some flurries here in Toronto. Apparently, it snowed the whole night. So the next morning, the ground was covered with a white carpet. It was the most amazing sight I have ever seen in my life. Well, most people laughed when they saw my amazement, because it’s only October. It’s already so cold and it’s snowing before Halloween.

But I couldn’t help notice the beauty of nature all around me. Every morning on my drive to work, I pass by a golf course. Next to its entrance is a beautiful red tree and red and orange bushes; well, they have turned into those colors now. On this particular morning, these plants had a fine layer of fluffy snow on them and it looked absolutely amazing. Breath-taking! What can I say; like frosting on a cake! The picture is still so vivid in my memory; I wished that I had brought my camera along with me at that point.

People at work laughed at me when I described it to them. Some found it cute, and some promised to come back in January to find out if I’m still amazed by looking at snow. All I want say now that to me, it looked like a Garden in Fantasyland, and I’m pretty sure I’ll have this picture in my head for a long time. I only wish that I had a real photo.

My New Job

Never had I imagined that I will be baby-sitting other people's kids in exchange for some money. Well yes, exactly that came true today. The kid is a year old and crazily cute but...........he cries far too much. He's too clingy onto his mother (as compared to her elder sister, according to his mother).

Well, my home was filled with the incessant crying of the kid. In the morning, he got tired of crying and fell asleep by himself. (Phew! What a relief for an hour and a half) After that, the crying continued. In between, at some magical moment, somehow I managed to distract his attention and got him engaged into looking at whatever I was doing. He even ate from my plate and we became friends (yipppppeeeeeeee, problem over). But I wasn't that lucky, he started off again. I feel blessed that kiddo spoke to me in his baby language for at least an hour.

Awwww, such a cutie pie he is, really!!

Anger!!

Anger, anger, anger.....when am I ever going to get rid of it from my system. I'm angry when I don't get what I want, and also angry when I'm close to getting what I want. What is it in me, dear Lord? Be angry and you keep hurting people. And my husband, probably the sweetest person earth and I keep torturing him with my anger.

The worst part is that after it's all over, you feel so guilty about whatever you might have said.....

Instruction Permit!!

Today is a fresh new day for me....I got my instructor permit for driving. So this is my first step towards driving around in Phoenix. The thought makes me happy and elated, so I thought that while my happiness is still around, I should start a new blog of mine.

The last 2 months in Phoenix have been interesting...I found places where I can pursue my hobbies, now that I have the time to do all that. I have made couple of friends around the place where I live, have gone places for sight-seeing....

Lovely stay so far!!
