BLOG MOTIVATIONS

Motherhood has been very rewarding and satisfying in many ways. The break from my day job has been a welcome gift besides ofcourse, my lil' bundle of joy. All the help from enthusiastic newly appointed grandmother aka mom in law has allowed me to spend hours on pinterest :D. I have finally started to get into the technicalities of photography – one hobby I have been passionate about for so long. I have also managed to get over my fear of baking and whipped up a few mean treats over the last few months.

I have been telling myself to reinvest some time into my small home décor / accessory venture but just don’t seem to get to it. Sometimes I feel I am pinning stuff more than actually doing anything. And its frustrating. This is my endeavor to push myself to do more, coz maybe with an audience I will make a conscious effort to commit more to my dreams :D .

So here's my to do list for this month:
