Happy New Year 2010



Another year, and that to 2010 sounds very far fetched or sci-fish.

In our case many things have changed in the past year, many things are there which we wished would change in the past year but it did not, hoping this New Year will bring us the joys which we search or grant us the satisfaction which we crave at times.

The last 2 months of 2009 was a roller coaster ride, still I did want to hold on to 2009 instead of letting it pass on to 2010. We went to our annual pilgrimage to India during the Thanksgiving holidays for my sanity check. India in different aspects is very reassuring to me, helps me come back to work and start all over again with a newfound energy. This trip generally gives me a yearlong quota for noise, pollution, traffic, air travel and above all loads of people and love.

This vacation we got stuck in India when I went for my H1B extension, and that resulted in a very panicky and unplanned holidays, which left very little to enjoy. We had another planned event which went haywire, and that was we were buying a house. We thought as we were coming back the first week of Dec, we had plenty of time to move and finish the changes we wanted to do. Good news is we bought the house in a rush and did vacate the rental apartment by Dec 31 deadline, bad news is we did not get any work done; still scrambling to get things in its place. The very good part was I had the whole of last week off, and the worst news is I am on my way to work and there are no vacations until May 2010, 4 dry months.

Forgetting all of the above, if I can live in today and move forward, that would be my New Year wish and try. I hope 2010 will be super special for us and for all of you reading this blog. I am trying to keep to my deadline of updating my blog Sunday night, but this one is late Mon morning 9:30am.
