Dateline 29 Sep.....
Everything I need to know about life, I learned from Noah's Ark.....
1. Don't miss the boat.
2. Remember that we are all in the same boat.
3. Plan ahead. It wasn't raining when Noah built the Ark.
4. Stay fit. When you're 600 years old, someone may ask you to do something really big.
5. Don't listen to critics; just get on with the job that needs to be done.
6. Build your future on high ground.
7. For safety sake, travel in pairs.
8. Speed isn't always an advantage. The snails were on board with the cheetahs.
9. When you're stressed, float a while.
10. Remember, the Ark was built by amateurs; the Titanic by professionals.
Got up in the morning, today, a bit later than yesterday. The alarm woke Lekha and me at a half past 5, the chores and we were ready by a half past 7. A quick breakfast of idlis, chutney and sambar, with Chittamma egging us to eat and we were headed towards Muhamma soon after. Reached Mallan's clinic by a half past 8 and therefore we'd to wait for a while.
The surgery was over by about a quarter past eleven. Four implants have been fixed on to Lekha's lower jaw. The doctor briefed us about the dos and the don'ts. Will have to return on 12 Oct for the removal of the stitches.
Took off for Guruvayur by 1415 hrs and drove straight to the Geeyem motors at Puzhakkal, Thrissur. The warning lamps of the engine and the battery came on many times during the journey though there weren't any effects on the overall running of the car. Spent an hour there for the mechanics to check. It seemed to be rogue calls on first look. They will take the vehicle tomorrow to have another check.
Lekha seemed to be okay except for the numbness she has, around the area of surgery. She had the medicines ordered by the doctor, food that was at room temperature and went about her usual chores.
Meanwhile, I'd opened up the house and and unpacked our bags.
