Save 60 trees campaign in Chandigarh

Yesterday, on the 6th of March, there was a campaign in sector 17 dedicated to the protection of 60 trees which were supposed to be cut in order to make an over-bridge.
The movement, named Chipko, was organized and inspired by one of our friends, who's initiative made simple citizens to show how they care for their city! The link to the news about event is here:

I really appreciated and loved the passion of people participating in the event, because nothing like this could have happened in my city, Astana, when  so many trees were cut there too and none even had a move to save them! I like people being concerned about the city issues, and it has to be like this, because this is the place we live in, work and rest.
Be the change you want to see!


Happy birthday, Mum!


Happy birthday, Mum! I love you very much and wishing you loads of happiness ahead! :*
   Yes, today my mum has her birthday and I don't really remember when was the last time I was with her on this day. I am feeling sad about it a bit, but can't help. I spent a lovely New Year-Christmas time with my husband and my parents in my country, but it wasn't possible to stay there more or come there so soon again. Well, I hope for the next meeting to happen after a little.
  Anyway, I am very happy, as I have everything in my life what a girl can wish for.

Crochet purple purse - using favorite colors

   I was pretty busy last week with making of this purple crochet purse, because I was going to gift my sister-in-law on her birthday, which happened last Sunday. So I used any opportunity to crochet  for my  own pleasure combining two tints of purple and this is what I finally got:
   In the beginning I wanted to put three flowers in the corner, but when attached one - it looked sufficient, as purse is small in fact, so I left it the way it is in the picture. I also liked a lot this way of making crochet handles - it looks trendy and very harmoniously along with the entire crochet purse.
  My sister-in-law liked the purse and I hope she will be taking it out sometimes :)

Crochet Time Pass :)

These are some of my creations for the past two weeks, more are coming.

Earthquake in Chandigarh!!!

  OMG! I have just experienced an earthquake, second time in my life though, but the second one was much stronger! I was in the office when felt like my chair was kind of a shaking, and then saw a bottle of water on the other table  - water was shaking too!!!
  It is an unpleasant, believe me, when you feel that the building is actually moving!
  This earthquake must have happened somewhere in another state, but the waves came to our city. Initially, our city is located on two tectonic plates and of course it adds "spice" into seismic activity too.
 Hope no one suffered and there won't be any victims of this natural phenomenon.
