My Day Today.

My Dear Rajesh,

                             Today I am not getting the colour in font. So though I have uploaded the Kani konnai flowers for you I am typing in black font. I am watching IPL. As I am a Chennai Super Kings fan, I am glad to inform you CSK is almost in the play off stage. But yesterday against Royal Challengers, Bengaluru which is my next preferred team and which is led by the Indian cricket captain Virat Kohil ,it is at the bottom of the IPL T20 going on now. Whereas CSK led by M.S.Dhoni is at the top of the team. But in yesterday' s match CSK lost to RCB in abthrillia  final ball run. M.S.Dhoni scored 84 runs and single handedly almost won the match. Anyway the league matches are vecbecomthrilling. I miss you as I see them as you have not seen them as the first World Cup T20 was played in 2007. If you see these blogs I would have described the rules after seeing the first 2007 world cup being won by India as I sat in Chennai station and blogged for you.

Rajesh, I am worried . Appa is becoming more and more rigid and difficult to live with and Ranjini has one or other health problems. I feel a sort of disconnect with the world at large. I am not liking the way the politics of this country is going on. I am not convinced that the present Prime Minister Narendra Modi is a man meant for India. Why am I becoming disturbed at the tinge of Hindutwa coming alive though I myself am a staunch Hindu?

Missing you my son. Be around and take care.
Affly
Amma.

My Day Today.

My Day Today.
........................
My Dear Takes,
Last 09th. April 2019 this cell sim went for an upgrade and so I could not write. Today,the 15 the.April being Vishu day after getting up and photographing the kani I am writing to you. I am thinking of you my son. I feel a lump in my throat. The inevitable loss that occurred in my life makes me sad and despondent. Nothing fills the void but we carry on. 

Ranjini and Ram might come for lunch to day. Anyway carrying on with the day.

Thinking of you,
Affly,
Anna.
