Too hilarious to forget

It's been a while and a day since I last posted here. I've just come back to work after lunch at home. This morning while I was at work, my mom received a phone call.
Lady on phone: "Does Veena live there?"
Mom: "Yes".
Lady on phone: "Is she married?"
Mom: "Why yes! She's married and has a year and half old son too."

I remember mom smile as I type this. :-)

Achy breaky heart

Memories are a blessing and a curse. It's natural to shy away from the bad ones. When a happy one gets tainted, that's a bit difficult to digest. Then, there are the people associated with a memory or form a part of it. Thankful for aches. I'm still living ☺
