Here I am Mom at home

Yeah that’s my current status and I love it. I am 30 something full time mom, a privilege a very few can enjoy in today’s world and especially when you are staying in a city like Mumbai.
My son is in the middle on his 2nd year and as one day a friend said that in some 800 days of his existence he has turned your life by 180 degrees. Yes it did, but I love it .
I moved here some 3 years ago and still yearn to move out I think that’s the case with most Delhi dwellers when they come here, not that I have anything much against the place but it is mostly the love for my own place which does the calling. OK moving on from this eternal Mumbai Delhi-Delhi Mumbai thingy. I love to and do a lot of things like cooking (my greatest passion till date), Reading (not been doing much off late for obvious reasons), Music and watching TV (so much so that when I am out in the public in Mumbai I can recognize even nameless TV personalities). And to top the list I work out ………ok I try to and imagine I have preserved my 30 Inches low waist jeans in the hope that someday I will fit into it ……….looks like a farfetched thought but I am still hopeful.
Hubby dear is in a job where he gets back home by 7:30 …….Imagine another luxury I enjoy in Mumbai.
I have a maid who decided that she is more attached to me then she is to her own mom hence she decided to stay with and travelled all the way with us and is now staying with me and takes care of my son while I cook, surf, freelance and do other things which interest me (cant imagine my life without her seriously). Day before yesterday she told me “bhabhi I might have to leave by November next year” and the statement came as a jolt to me 11 months looked like 11 days to me. Then I had to tend to my broken heart and I explained to myself that she too has a life however thinking at the same time what will happen to my life then *sighs*.
Since I have moved here after leaving a full time job and settled into the life of motherhood things have been tough on me initially couldn’t understand the pulse the speed of the city. Then with the little one in the tow I just use to hunt for the ways to run out. And everytime I left the place for a visit home I use to chuck the maids out telling them (and hoping) that I am not going to come back and everytime I use to come back and use to begin the search again.
Then slowly things changed slowly my friends trickled into the city and life changed we started socializing moving out , though a little late I started discovering the place, and still discovering.
And today I made this post just to thank all my friends (though this one does not talk about them much) for being there and making my life what is it today – ROCKING.
PS.: I have to thank Reena for being a part of my life without her and her loving care to my son nothing would have been possible.
