here and gone!

Long absences seem to unfortunately have become the norm here. It's just that life sometimes takes you to such a hectic pace that it's not possible to keep up with all the stuff that one took for granted earlier. So, here it is, the summer vacations are almost here and that means time for shopping and all the running around that comes with it. Shopping is much more hectic than before of course, trying to coordinate it all in the school hours which means more of a rush, but less chaos with a toddler running around. And as usual, a lot of the shopping is the usual boring stuff, nothing fancy like xikar, but just basic gifts for friends and family.
