Thanks Anu !!
It is a strained tendon of the right thumb..I seem to have chosen the most strategic spot as iam unable to pick a book, or even open a door 😕...learning to get ambidextrous...
And yes, your choice also features in a medley of songs 😃

Get well soon Vani.

AWESOME UPDATE NISHA!! 👏👏

My heart went out to II. I so wanted to throw my arms around her and tell her what Anu has been saying to Nivi. 🤗

This one is so close to our hearts we can all eat up this threads and a couple more if we get one with this.

Nivi do enjoy this phase. ❤️

With last update Nisha gave everyone a reality check. And now I have many real stories to share from my workplace.
May be by that time Nisha will post new update which will divert us to think about other realities.

I have two friends at my workplace. Both are extremely intelligent. One is always restless and not content in life. The other is extremely self content with small small happiness. Both started career at 22 by 26 they had strong career and got married at 26. The first one always worked hard spent more time in office giving complex to men and women in the team.she always got highest rating in the team. The other worked hard but gave equal importance to family life also.

When the first friend got married her husband got a chance to work in Europe, he asked her to join him also offered to work or study in those 2 years. She was extremely adamant to quit the job and join him. So he cut short his trip to 6 months and cane back. There was separation of 6 months just after 3 months of marriage. Within a month he came back she went to US for 6 months and again a separation.

The second friend made small trips like 2 to 3 weeks in 2 years and spent time with her family.

Both decided 2 have babies at 28 and planned for it. Within two months both got pregnant.

The first friend forced her husband take long term onshore so that she will join him this time. He went to onshore, she never joined him again giving career excuses. The couple couldn't enjoy her pregnancy together. Again he came back after six months.

The second friend enjoyed her pregnancy with her husband and family.

Both delivered babies in a week difference.

The first friend joined office just after three months of maternity leave. Where as my company increased the maternity leave to 6 months now and she can avail it. She wants her in- laws and patents to take care of baby. Now she is planning to go US with baby and mom for 1 year. But her husband can't accompany her. Now separating baby from dad

My second friend called me and told, yaar I want to take break for two years. I don't want to put this responsibility on my parents or in-laws to make my career. I want to spend every minute with baby for the first 2 year. I want to capture all these happiness which are never going to come back. She told me I may achieve things in life bit slow compare to first friend but I am happy with my decision.

Who is the better woman here?
So many real tales to share...

Nivi, you will sail this phase. I was 23 years when I got married. You are very mature and a grounded girl. You will find your bearing soon enough. All you need is confidence and support from your better half . Everything else falls in place, dont expect overnight things to happen your way...it takes time and you need to enjoy this time. I found my niche, we moved, travelled, I changed job 3 times in different companies and did totally different kind of banking, from commerical credit to corporate complaince. I had a zing in me to enjoy what came my way. Adjusted to the circumstances (except I hated living in Canada) I am currently stay at home mom from last 2 and half years & i live in the boonies. I wanted to spend this phase of playing with the boys, so I am taking it easy..

My whole point is, enjoy your time, career will happen how ever you want to take it as you are a very smart intelligent girl. Have a good time with your family as this time will never come back.

I will to do so wholeheartedly. Par kabhi kabhi plan se hatke kuch ho jaye to samajh nahi aata kya kare. But in the end, plan apni jagah aur reality apni jagah. 😊

Spontaneity and surprise often gives you some great stories to share, at least that's what I've been told. 😉 😆
