Tasmiya

I have weddings, walimas and mehndi nights COMING OUT OF MY EARS. You know how it is for us Indians, we don’t just have ONE function - there are eleventy from the bride’s side and then eleventy plus one from the groom’s side. It’s been fun and for the first time in a very long time the children are old enough to leave with husband so I can actually help out at said functions. Nice to feel useful for a change and alhamdulillah the children are so much easier to handle.  I’m usually a lump of shiny, metallic gaudiness (it makes me angry just thinking of the discomfort of the sequin overload) getting frustrated because the food is taking ages to come, my children are hungry and WON’T SIT STILL and the other ladies are STARING DAGGERS at me because I cannot control my children and we always need to leave BEFORE DESSERT - it’s enough to make John Wayne cry.

So what has everyone else been up to?
