sometimes "Gee" is all that is different!
Couldn't have chosen a better woman for the delayed action replay!
Sometimes it looks like one of those Sun TV Serials where at the beginning of the show, they put two photographs and say "starting today this person will play this character instead of this person".
Switch dad for me, mom for wife and some of the scenes in the house appear to be right on the same script. Maybe it all makes sense, considering there is genetic inheritance from my dad and my wife was picked because of her "momlike" qualities, sick as that might sound!
Now that is good and bad.
Good, because after being married for what appears to be 173 trillion years, my parents love each other. We know it, although they don't kiss in public, hold hands or even say it out loud. We just know it, in a way that is more of a subconscious than the obvious.
Bad, because we know what was bad in the original but there is no rewrite on the script to gloss over the bad parts. Well, maybe that is where the kids come in and maybe that is all good as well.
Another year has almost rolled by with a few days left to reminisce, recap, rethink and plan for what lies ahead.
and here is to a new year resolution to be more in sync with the rest of the family...
I know. I know. The extended family who read this would probably get a good laugh out of this post, knowing that my health is no better than it was last year and it takes friends to die, for me to give up on fries!
Getting there, one step at a time!
Next years goal, no Aloo, period!
ps. there is no need to rewrite the script. It is predictable, but one gets used to these soaps!

The long arm of Sun TV and its soaps has reached your life and this blog as well !! Hmm !

"We just know it, in a way that is more of a subconscious than the obvious" Dont we! ...And sometimes it is just a wonder to see that in action, even when there is no action.
Wonderful post Sundar. Wishing your father a speedy recovery. I trust he is alright now..!
And for your new year resolutions..no aloo is good. Less TV can also work.
And that wolf stomach with ballet costume is something that is just right to aspire for..!! All the best..!
All the best in your difficult resolve. May the new year bring good health and much joy to your and your family.
