Been neck deep in work and more work, dont ask me what kind of dunno. Like all domestic work anonymous, no remuneration. Cant crib though as i hate to go to work anywhere except at home. cant stand commuting cant stick to regular hours. Had been a free spirit all along. Read a nice article in the Hindu about the big stuff and the tiny like keeping the garbage out. The big stuff is how the galaxy Andromeda is swallowing all the nearby galaxies and ones puny endeavour of doing household chores. It was quite funny. In the end home wins always.
I remember when we were children we used to sleep on the terrace in summer and my father used to talk about the stars and galaxies. its good to know and good to feel connected to all tose distant stars, thatswhy sifi fascinates me especially Ursula leguin.Being human is all the more important.
Garden is at its best, have been slogging there. late rains have helped immensely.The garden is chock a block with plants and flowers. Cant waste any space,Water melon has come up on its own. my g.sons alu plant is growing like Jack and the magic beans. Coconut tree drops its fruit in the night and scares all of us. Lots of rats in the garden, would not come if there is a cat or a dog. none here.Lots of millipede going in gangs everywhere guppies are happy in their pond and all the birds have enough to eat. Hope monsoon will continue till the lakes are full. Bye for now.

Good to have you back!
ReplyDeleteThe garden sounds wonderful and almost delicious:)
We are having very heavy rains in Kolkata rather late in the season- must try your onion bhajiyas.
Keep posting.
