Exactly 8 months ago, I was having the best time 250 kms away from home and then suddenly I wasn't. Today, here I am, chilling in bed on a Monday night, after a super hectic week with work, 5 wedding functions and a quick out of town trip.
A lot has happened in 2017, more than I could've imagined. Good and Bad. Not sure if I should be getting into details, but my brace came off about 6 weeks ago and life has been a roller coaster since then.
For starters, I got engaged to my one & only. After being super patient with me & my obsession of fractures, spinal injuries, spinal surgeries etc. I think it's safe to say, Manan saw me at my worst and my bravest. Constantly trying to keep me distracted, making sure that I always had something to look forward to and just being the person I needed him to be. Funny at times, my crying shoulder and most importantly my hang-out buddy. Who else was I going to end up with?!
And in other exciting news, my boo got engaged to her boo too, an event I was waiting for and scared of at the same time. Because as excited as I was about my favorite girl's engagement, I was just as scared that my brace wouldn't be off before her big day and I wouldn't be able to enjoy the way I wanted to..BUT my brace was off and I was able to dress up the way I wanted to, dance a little and drink a little. For once, I wasn't treated like the robo-cop that I'd been looking like and I was just so happy to see the two of them drunk in love, no pun intended.
Going back to reality, the day the doctor told me to take the brace off, he let me off with the warning "be careful". Words that I have taken very very seriously, and started taking precautions that are borderline paranoia. Sometimes I get scared in every day scenarios like seeing a wet floor or even seeing kids running around and I don't even know the last time I sat in a car in relax mode.
The more I look forward to the future, the more the paranoia subsides. With our combined bachelorette & Mithoos wedding coming up, I know I have more to look forward to than to be scared about. And more than anything else, I need to be fully functional and at my best so I can start preparing for my own crazy wedding and be a bridezilla!
WARNING : Dear Manan, Get Ready.

Can't leave the leader of the gang behind, the one who kick started the wedding season in our family. We are just following her footsteps..
