It’s been a long time.. and I missed you..
So much took place. My days are being filled with so many activities that I can’t keep up.

So first is first- Eid Mubarak to all of you.. although belated!
I started my morning by watching Mekka on TV with Ahmed and reciting the prayers out loud. I didn’t really celebrate Eid this year. We usually spend Eid morning by visiting family or receiving them at my dad’s place. Then we have lunch at my uncle’s place. So my plan was to skip the morning visits and just head to my uncles at about 1 pm. Well and just when we were ready to go Ahmed’s starts crying. Trying to calm him down that took about 2 hours. By the time I got to my uncles everyone was heading for door looking all filled up with the best Biryani on earth.
That same night, for some reason baby A was overly hyper and excited about something or the other and he kept me up till 8 am. So second day of Eid was spent sleeeeeeeeeeping.
Eid Over.

I am back to work. and I seriously don’t miss it at all. I guess working for almost 6 years continuously has derailed me of all energy. God I remember taking only 3 weeks for my honeymoon and that’s it. I came back to work leaving Ahmed in my mom’s custody. She was delighted to take on the responsibility. She loves spending time with him. God bless her. *hugs*
So back to the office, I am overloaded with work. I haven’t gotten a minute to myself. My team tried update me with all important events but no matter what they told me something else keeps coming up. So basically spent the week trying to manage my time between the employees and their HR issues and the other employees in the company.
I’ve been asked to handle more responsibilities in the office. If that was a year ago you’d find me jumping around in circles but now- I keep thinking when will I have the time to see my lil one. Our working hours are long 8:30 to 4:30 and that’s the official time. I sometimes stay till 7 or even longer depending on the load of work I’ve got. My dedication to work hasn’t changed but I fear that if I don’t give the office the same amount of dedication I will be perceived as lethargic and apathetic. I’ve always given work 110%. My plan was to handle more work at home when Ahmed was sleeping. I tried it the first couple of days but it was almost impossible. Spending about 8 hours away from him was just too much for me to handle and I just can’t spread my papers on my desk and work in his presence. When he slept I just laid there cuddling him. =)
I guess it’ll just take time and I will be able to work things out.

I spent the week at my parents. I love being there- going through the stuff in my room and it’s like an endless loop of things to do over there. =)
Oh well, I am becoming a shopping fanatic. I just can’t get enough of it which is kinda strange cuz I am not the shopping type. I usually do it online and on Amazon. I think I’ve been keeping myself in the shell for so long that its time for an explosion. I’ve been heading to Dubai every weekend and having a blast. Shopping like a maniac. I guess it’s all a post partum thingie. I just want to change my whole wardrobe. How convenient to my bank account!
I so needed the time out in Dubai. I feel refreshed.

Dubai’s Girl believe it or not- I’ve dreamt of you! silly since I don’t even know you personally.. isn’t it weird how your online friends affect your life offline?
