Just Us

After planning for a good one month at least, Saturday 30th January 2010 became a reality.  A gathering to commemorate our 31st Anniversary of sisterhood, camaraderie and friendship.  It is just that sisterhood may seem so inappropriate now that we are or will be 44 this year (yes InaMus and Ashie being the last to turn 44 and mine in October seems moons away).

Get-together like this leaves you with a glow that only we understand.  A sense of euphoria. Adrenalin rush.  I must admit that for me, after meeting these friends from school, listening to different perspectives in lives, gives me the push I need to continue, especially where work is concerned.  Gives me the push to continue working for myself, for my kids and just to appreciate the things that we have to go through to make a living and living a life.  So thank you girls.....you mean more to me than you think you do......

And then there was one who didn't even know I had a baby....poor Farid Hashim, her look was priceless.  "Didn't you have backpain? coz at 36 when I had my youngest I had backpain so unbearable I cried"  Of course, I did have backpain, tolerable though as long as I don't walk long distances.  Yeah Harith was the center of all these aunties who as Ogee said "I can coo, play and carry Harith, but when it comes to diaper changing and all, Mommy has to own it!!" Oh yes Ogee Mommy is owning it through the hired help aka Bibik Ana.....hee hee!
