Oh my, the last weekly update almost EIGHT WEEKS ago! Darn! This means even if I club two weeks into one post I'll have to do four posts! And that's a lot of backlog to clear. So this time I'm going to club four weeks into one post for this one and the next one,… Continue reading The weeks that were | Weeks 27-30
We’ve believed it to be true for years now because the answer was the same every time.The ‘Gold Chain Theory’ - where you put a ring or a pendant on a gold chain and lift it off a girl’s palm - according to which, if the pendant turns in circles, it means she’ll have a… Continue reading It’s all on me, now.
So basically, the lack of any activity on this blog and barely any activity on other 'Mamma Bear' social media says quite a bit about how busy I have been. Writing here has been on my mind constantly, but I have so many things that I've been thinking about that somehow, posting here did not… Continue reading The weeks that were | Weeks 25 & 26

Wow! 18 weeks complete? On one hand it seems like it's been a long 18 weeks (which it has) but on the other, it feels like nothing when I realise I have at least 20 more weeks to go 😦 I know I should cherish this time as it is the last few weeks months… Continue reading The week that was | Week 18
