this teeny tiny pc of ‘CLEAN PLANET’ Nugget of Wisdom

To start with we can keep our homes, workplace n neighborhood clean and advocate the same while we practice n preach for a noble cause.

1. Don’t Litter, always use a Bin; don’t just spit (the masala) anywhere n everywhere, use a washbasin; also don’t s%@$ on the roadside, use the toilets. ITS BAD MANNERS!

2. Conserve Water, Electricity, Cooking Gas, Paper, Patrol / Diesel, n other resources. THEY are PRECIOUS!

3. Grow n Nurture Plants. Well one could even ADOPT A TREE.

4. Take responsibility n be accountable for your own ‘CLEAN n GREEN PLANET’ , as far as your immediate surroundings are concerned.

Well….

If after reading my WiseNugget, you too wish to share your ‘CLEAN PLANET nugget of Wisdom, in your own space, 

Come Join KEY BUNCH n CLEAN PLANET

Gardening a Game

I was invited to play this game of  bloggers by Bangchik, who is from Putrajaya, Malaysia @ My Little Vegetable Garden and asked to list ‘10 things I love’ as per the rules laid out for ‘Gardening a Game’

So, without further ado, here goes my rather lengthy list of 10 Things that I love the most n more……..

1.First n foremost, I love spending time outdoors…. watching the sunrise/sunset, gazing up at the sky, the clouds conjuring up figures n forms, the twinkling stars, the moon as it waxes n wanes, watching the twittering birds, the fluttering butterflies, hopping squirrels n more..…

2 My all time fav colour is ORANGE, but I also Love the colour GREEN n its various hues..... for its  Natural soothing serenity n everything to do with Gardens n the gamut world of Gardening.  I enjoy collecting, growing and tending to the plants, weeding n watering them, watching them bear flowers n fruits or merely drop their leaves in autumn/winter only to blossom back to life next spring.

3. Simply  Love to take a long walk quite religiously along a Nature Trail….** A beautifully lit Green Round about crossing @ Walking Plaza

4. Love to travel n visit new places…n... Take a long Walk in the Clouds

5 Oh Yes! I also Love long drives too….specially traversing across miles n miles of countryside or coastline, or merely rolling hills. Over the years, I have even participated in intra city car rally; a couple of times and won accolades for the feat as well. V-R-O-O-O-O-O-M!

6. Enjoy photography….taking mundane, everyday pictures; all the while capturing Nature and its marvel around me, through my lenses.

7. Almost always have a Book / Magazine by my side… as I love reading; enjoy surfing the net n yes browsing through the beautiful virtual world of blogsphere.

8. Love writing, penning n journaling my thoughts @ Evergreen Tree, A Little Beyond, Jamdan n here….

9. Love learning new things n array of K-reative Art forms ….as in Rangoli, Sketching, Glass painting, Sand painting, n the art of ‘Nature in Miniature’ – BONSAI.

Sky Watch Friday: Come September

MySpace Picture Frame

Come September, and I intend to resume blogging more regularly n frequently, gradually catching up, with my long list of ‘blogs-to-read’.

Well, it’s a beautiful morning here, a perfect excuse to skip my physiotherapy session (for my fractured arm) in the hospital today and instead, stay at home to enjoy the rainy weather and blog.

Six wks on…after the injury….my right arm is definitely a lot better, as I try to hold an empty glass or a spoon with it. Bravo! It feels like a Major Achievement akin to a infant taking its first baby steps, while trying to walk. I am still working on regaining the strength of the arm, the grip of my hand and most importantly the ROM i.e. pronation n sipunation movts of the arm, which are directly associated with the neck of the radius fracture. My right wrist still hurts, even with the smallest n slightest of movts, but the best part is that I am able to use my right hand to type out this blog today. *Smiling* 

Whoa! It’s a great start, though, the sky is all grey; the clouds have been thundering n roaring; waiting to break loose and begin showering any moment; promising a much awaited heavy downpour.

                      

See what I mean……..

With an outcast sky like this, it is highly unlikely, that the weather will clear out any time soon for today. Though I love the rains, but not for long. * Sigh*

Give me some Sunshine….. Give me Some Rain …..
Then Give me some more Sunshine all over again.
