This post is so dilute it has no title

I am gratified to have received a comment from Deepa at last about the blog. Frankly, I was really busy and was not in a position to put my fingers to the keyboard. What with the new arrival in the family and all the negative vibes from the office. But I didn’t really want to continue till I was sure people were reading my blog. One gets put off when one sees a big cyberyawn. So Deepa’s post has started me off again I guess. I may take a few more days to get back to Wadi and Shahabad and will possibly continue to sing the praises of my new daughter, but I hope too that the readers will tolerate me. Another fear I have is that, I may not get the kind of enthusiastic responses for my posts when I move to my Shahabad days, as I used to for my Wadi posts. I plan to write about Shahabad a little more and then if I feel there are no takers, may be I will move on to Gulbarga or back to Wadi. After all one writes to be read.
Having a new child 10 years after the first has its disadvantages. The elder one has gotten into the habit of thinking that his parents are his own and he has their undivided attention. I got my kid brother when I was 14 years and 9 months. My son got his kid sister when he is 9 years and 9 months. It sometimes feels like your wife has got a new husband. You grow up thinking you are “THE” child of the family and then you find that you are “A” child of the family. This shocks you. Since I remember how I felt at the birth of my kid brother I guess I am equipped to handle the feelings of my son. The only problem is that my workplace doesn’t grant me enough peace of mind to dedicate time for solution of this issue. It is well known that Government of India organizations are run by Babus who interpret the letter rather than the spirit of the law. I plan to get a free day on Sunday after many many days , so I guess I will post something significant on Sunday. Till then.

Ramdas,
I regularly read your blog and look forward to the updates. So keep writing, you cann be guaranteed that a few people like Deepa, Deepika, JC, Gomathy and i will read and enjoy.

I know with the birth of your daughter time will be a constraint, so do write when you get some free time.
