Atta, Akka and Kakka

So, here I am with my little cousin and her two lovely brats!…I say that with love.
Am really ( I mean really) scared of the older one ..ahhhh she is only 4 but rules the house with a iron hand. I thought I had a way with kids but all it took was one look and I was asking for permission before I helped myself to a fish stick. I don’t think I have behaved this well since my first day at school.


I already feel I have traveled to a different planet.I already feel a tinge of “Blue” if I don’t have tea with Arthur 4.30pm every afternoon and a chat with Dora. I have been informed that I will not have the pleasure of meeting Barney this time around. Yeahhhhh!!

Then there is the little one.. my 1 1/2 year old nephew who nods and agrees to everything I say…now I LIKE that. Here is my kind of guy. Forget needing a translator in Thailand I need one in babyland…mommy dearest has to translate everything for me. I have to say,I knew I had no flair for languages but this is bad. Atta, Akka and Kakka all sound the same to me…one means aunt, the other sister and the lastly its emergency time…one need to go to the potty!!!

Strangely feel at home and homeless at the same time.All it took was a 7×10 storage space to fit all my junk that I had accumulated over the last couple of years. Feels strange to live without a set of keys….except the car keys. My monster will be with me for couple more days while I recuperate after the move.

Feeling a bit homeless after leaving my possessions..entrusting them to their fellow cell mates..the dust mites and spiders. But am sure they are in good company…maybe I will bring back messages from their Asian cousins I meet on the road.

Couple more housekeeping items and then I will be mentally free to hit the road..can’t wait. Major thing now is to figure a easy non labour intensive way to download my music.I had a great idea of asking my freinds of sending me their fav CD’s and recommend books to read but the idea has remained an idea…next time I will give them more notice.
