Most folks who blog get to a point where they hit an impasse… and things either flounder, falter and flop or…. change. I’m not yet ready to give up, but have certainly faltered a time or two.

Let’s be honest, I’ve been pre-occupied with a crazy long list of company / business related activities, interspersed with enjoying life and… yes… distracted by my other blog ‘Whisky Lady.’

Sure I still WANT to write but the ideas that pop in my head inspired by an experience or conversation just haven’t been making it to the publish stage.

And don’t even get me started about drafts! Anyone else have an embarassing 60+ gathering dust in your drafts folder?!

Clearly it was time for an intervention, clean-up and figure a way to get “back on the saddle” for a a renewed posting groove! (more…)

Wow! We’ve officially entered double digits for quarters… Merci all ya loyal readers and welcome newbies!

This quarter, I was interviewed & featured on two sites – how cool is that?

• Expat Focus – A website for globe trotters and bloggers from around the world…
• Learning India on working in India – a great website started by an American consultant in Chennai to help folks interested in working or living in India

Life brought a few developments too:

• Jumping for joy with the Canadian election results –  finally Harper is gone!!
• Travel-wise had three trips: Delhi & Kolkata for work, Jodhpur purely for pleasure
• As for the ongoing structural repairs? After the water spray fiasco, the main building repairs are done though painting is pending… alas we still have one bedroom / balcony / bathroom to go!
• On the whisky side – started a brilliant ‘Whisky Ladies‘ group with a special guest from Inver House
