Winter is felt harsh in the night and I’m wearing two sweaters while sleeping. Mind you, it is with oil filled radiator switched on. Sleeping next to heater wearing two sweaters is not possible. Add to it the rounding of dear Piyo during the night. You don’t know if you are kissing his feet or his head (and sometimes his tummy too). Being a father is difficult, even while sleeping!
An old friend visits again
Since return from Bangalore, I have been having wheezing everyday. In fact it was so heavy that I had to visit a doc and get medications; I was also on bedrest. Though I’m getting better, I am still suffering from it constantly.

Edited in mobile. How is it?
Delhi is lively
In Bangalore we had a rhythm. We had a schedule. We knew what is going to happen.
But here in Delhi we don’t know. We don’t know the language; we don’t know how climate will turn into; I don’t know if my contract will extend; we just don’t know what will happen next minute. That is frustrating. But that is life too.
Another winter photo
Piyo in winter clothing
It’s cold, freezing cold
Temperature is falling day by day here in Delhi. It was 3 yesterday and its going to fall still further. Family has never experienced winter so she is wearing 4 layers of clothing at home. But she is adjusting well. Today she went to a nearby electrical shop and bought us oil filled radiator. So its little better.
Back in Delhi and its not good
The flight arrived early today for a change.
We came home without any trouble. But it is so cold. We are wearing two sweaters and still feeling cold.
I believe Piyo is missing his grand parents & aunt & uncle. He is pointing finger outside and wants to go outside. But its so cold I can’t take him outside.
Even I feel what am doing here so far away from home. Once before, I think it was 2003 when I was in Belgium immediately after our His trip, I felt home sick. Piyo can’t express it, but is having his first home sickness.
There is also water problem.
It’s not a pleasant beginning.
Don’t want to go
Even after two years of stay I don’t feel excited to go to Delhi. That was not the case about Belgium. It may be because of my work with govt or uncomfortable envirenvironment of Delhi or my comfort in Bangalore or my condition of not much friend in Delhi. Whatever be it I am not happy going back. But I do know, that’s where my future is. So far I have relied just in single client. This year I am planning to diversify. Also I am planning to get few articles published in print media to establish myself as consultant. Since the house owner has asked me to vacate first quarter is going to be a busy one. May be my feeling has to do with too much unpredictable work too.
