60 days later

The last post was April 22nd.

Time to pause and recollect.

- Had three wonderful family events - one 'upanayanam' and two weddings. S wants to have his upanayanam done ASAP. When I looked woefully at my MIL, she assured me it was better this way: imagine if V were to demand her wedding right away.

- Chennai Visits: Managed to watch Indiana Jones in between a Muhurtham and Reception. Hijacked a crowd of 20 relatives to the theatre. The ones left behind disapproved of course. I want to go to South America.

- Grandmother: The 90 year old has broken her leg yet another time. This time she is not able to get back on her legs. Surgery is ruled out bcos of her age. Now completely bed-ridden. Also very delerious. I felt very disturbed.

- Coimbatore: Three day visit. Sacked out at the brothers house. Visited Guruvayoor. Very tiring journey, considering that the highway to that place is some 50 ft wide, winding though fields and little hamlets, and vehicles packed bumper-to-bumper zip at 70 kmph.

- Trains: Its impossible to share a berth with the V anymore. Gives me more reasons to lose weight.

- Friends: The grand highlight. Wonderful to meet choxbox, kbpm and the other beautiful thing from california. and their little ones. Okay, their husbands too.

- Schools and Creche: This one requires a tome.

Mumbai doesnt have amazon, it does not have jungles(of the green kind). Unless of course we tag along choxbox, who will give us a nostalgic guided tour of khandala, lonavla etc. Game for it CB?

aaah airspy. i came here to wake you up (used to do it all those years back too right - 360 yinterrnal, yekshternal, vijhitor types). about time you posted.

what do mean the 'other' beautiful thing from california? you mean we are also beautiful? yay!

btw your MIL has a sensa humour. rare thing that. and if you lose weight we will only hear your voice.

will call and we meet next week and yabber off and hopefully make the kbpm J enough to come again to the city of beans.

i am awfully jealous of you all ...

Airspy said...

kbpm, i am coming to see salman khan, bcos of fondness from the "kabuthar ja ja " days and certainly not to see those monstrous arms (or biceps or six pack or whatever gross-ness)

cb, of course you ARE ALL BEAUTIFUL. truly, theres no denying that. Whats the Q? I will visit midweek next week (am not naming the dates you see).

pg, jayanagar has a good rink and needs instructors. Game?
