Ok, I am getting out with it!!!

I have pondered on this topic of how to break the news but seriously I have no idea on how to go about so let me just say I am getting married!! Yay!

Ok, its an arranged and granted I am pretty old but I have so much of experience in measuring up guys that everyone is pretty relaxed and heaved a sigh of relief when I finally said yes.

It took almost a week of it to sink the feeling in myself and now I am happy :D

Today, I announced the thing in my office also and thankfully my boss wasn't in a scowling mood so that makes me extra happy. If you would see me now, you would find nothing but a goofy grin on my face.

The next 2-3 months are gonna be a blur of activity and I have no idea how to deal with the changes. Worse still, I hate wearing a saree. Gosh, help me!! So, yup a lot of things to do and learn. But, for now, I can just sit and relax and be happy :)

      hi Prashant...thank you so much. aah...glad that it is helping you. i would suggest you to get extra virgin coconut oil or sesame oil but make sure it is cold pressed and not filtered. you can check out the edible oils. they are available at naturalmantra.com or bigbasket.com. check for 24 letter mantra brand.
