Seemingly inocuous question. And I’m ready with a barrage of misery and a flood of tears. Atleast that’s what I feel like. Its no fun being a single working mum. Even if its just for a few months. I miss HD. Waaaaaaaaaaiiiin.
I wish I could scream and cry like Junior.
My wrist has been busted for weeks nows. And I need to use a wrist support. I’m frequently falling ill thank to the stress and exhaustion – or wait, maybe its the crazy weather in Bangalore. I’ve got a cold and fever this weekend. Last weekend was pretty similar, but I somehow managed not to get a full blown fever. And this morning I slipped in the kitchen and twisted my ankle. And did I mention my right shoulder is kinda messed up. Get shooting pains each time I pick up the baby.
Does that sound crazy enuf?
Add to that taking care of the baby, the house, and office. Without HD.
Fun?!? What’s that.
So overall, I’m having a miserable day. Then the little brat wakes up. Reaches out for me and gives me a gorgeous smile.
And its all, all right. I pick him up and smile. I’ll get thru another day.


Wow! I really know that feeling! I am not a single dad, but my wife traveled 3 weeks per month and boy oh boy I know how that felt!
Even now with my boys sometimes I want to strangle them and then one of them will walk up and say “I love you Daddy” and I am all mushy too!
