My Dearest Rajesh,

As you can make out from the picture posted it is Deepawali today the 27th.of October 2019. Yes,we are missing you. Ranjini and Ram came for lunch. Because of Ranjini' s stomach conditions very normal menu is being prepared now a days. No sweet or Kharam varieties being prepared too. She dies not want it as she says she will tend to eat it. Since I will have at least one flat neighbour who will bring something and I would like to return it , I just made some khova like sweet and a little pokkodam. Actually being Sunday and my front road being dug up for laying pipe supply to some other places around auto rickshaws are asking for exhorbitant rates. Where minimum of Rs.30/ won't come ,they ask double or even Rs.100/. Do I bunked going for meditation though the menu could have been managed by me even if I return by 9.30 in the morning. Anyway power failure was also there. So mullangi sambar,rasam, cucumber poduthuval ,vadas( paruppu vadas) and semia payasam. I made one ginger pachadi too. In this menu rasam and poduthuval Ranjini brought. A quiet lunch. I had taken Ram shirts and pants,and fir Ranju dresses. For Appa also three shirts and one pant which he accepts only after running about it very much.

Did I tell you that Sita Athai passed away on October 7 th? Also because of eco pollusion Pattakki breaking is very less. We are seeing laser likedisplays even in pattakkis.
After your not being here I am not celebrating Deepawali in a big manner. Celebrations changes. In October beginning from 1 St to 4 th I did go to Mysore as Bala and Sita Mami were at Chandrasekhar and Shilpa' s place at Mysore.Shilpa keeps dolls too. Anyway I am.not making as many sweets as Sita Mami. 
I can post one picture of Ramachandra and family at Chennai now .
I have not been able to get it right. Let me see one more letter I will write. 
So my Raheshmy son I wish you A Very Happy Deepawali. Enjoy.
Affectionately,
Amma.

My Dear Takes,

09-10-2019 ,a Wednesday.This day if you reverse also will be 09- 10-2019. Dasara was on 08th. The news is Appa' s sister Sita at Palghat aged 93 years passed away at 0.45 hours on 7 th  Monday morning. 
Appa went to Palghat for the cremation. She was ailing for sometime. About 15to 20 days too all their sons and Daughters as called to come and see her. That time too Appahad gone and seen  her. 
Ranju had kept kolu this year too. I actually wanted to download kolu pictures to you. Somehow I could not identify it. 
I had gone from 1st .To 4 th.to Mysore where Chandrasekhar and Skills are staying. This time Bala and Sita too had come there. After returning Ranju had called Sarasu ' schildren Ramesh,Ganesha and Chutes families for lunch on the 7 th. the day day Sita went. So that lunch was not done as everyone thought not to make a celebration. 
I am thinking of you my Son,every day. The 13 th.year is coming this year. 
Affectionately,
Amma.
