Exploring the archives from May'22 and May'23
Hello, this is post #210.
It’s been a hectic week on the home front, but I’m excited to share that our dream home is almost ready. My extended family is here, and we did a small puja this weekend before the actual move. The new place is finally starting to look like what we imagined when we bought it nearly four years ago. It feels surreal. S and I are thrilled—and honestly, a bit overwhelmed. This is a big moment for us. I’m bracing for the rest of May to be equally exciting and exhausting as we get everything in place.
With the house taking up all my time and energy, I don’t have much new to share today. But the good thing about writing this newsletter over the past four years is that the archive is packed with timeless gems. I’ve pulled out two posts from around this time in 2022 and 2023 to revisit and reshare.
I hope to be back with fresh picks next week. Fingers crossed for what the coming days bring—for both of us.
And now, to today’s curation. A quick scan tells me most of the links in these two posts have aged well. I’m sure you’ll find something that grabs your interest.
Here’s the post #106 from May’23
And here’s post #54 from May’22
ICYMI… Here’s the link to the post from the last week:
That's all for this week, folks!
I hope I've earned the privilege of your time.
