Rain!!! Now where do I begin....after the havoc the rain caused at my parents home two days back, the hate relationship will soon go to "Superhate"....It was so bad and the agony of not being there to help my parents getting things back together is even worse. While they keep assuring me that everything is alright and things are getting back to normal, the tiredness and a the little remorse in their voice over loosing so many of their possessions is very agonising to say the least. But thank god everyone is safe and life seems to be gaining normalcy slowly.
Here are some of the pictures of the havoc. This one if of our car...which got on to another neighbours car.
So in an already low state of mind, the wet depressing weather was not helping much. When I used to run to work on wet and watery days, getting wet and sniffing away in office, my dream used to be sitting by the window, sipping hot coffee while reading a book and watching the rain. Over the last few days, I realised that now that I had the time, I wasn't really living that dream. But somehow today I didn't feel like a book. And tomorrow some friends have a house warming party - so I thought why not make a little gift for them. So while my parents were piecing the house back together, I decided to do the same - i.e. some mosaic! I set up a mini workshop in the balcony trying to enjoy the weather and since I was working with glass, didn't want it to get into everything else. And it was strangely therapeutic...I felt good about the mosaic and also the weather - the sun almost came out for a while!! So here's what I made - its still work- in -progress though.
P.S - If you aren't a great photographer and basically clumsy - don't try too many stunts to try and get your pics right. After the pic above - only one of the glasses remains!
