Back to square one after about seven months of non stop excitement in children's houses, solid six months in the US in daughter's, the rest in sons' in Bangalore and Chennai! The pure joy of seeing the hard copy of the newspaper made me an early riser! Different time zones, weather conditions, routines of the past months seem to leave me a bit dazed and I don't know if I am going to change my old schedules permanently or slip back to former lazy, sedantary style! :noteeth:
