So wondering what’s the story behind this picture!It definitely has a lot of significance to what’s going on in my life today, right now!A picture showing a lady struggling and trying to lift the wagon using all her strength! How can that be any good ? 03.11.2018, Diwali break begins!Diwali cleaning in full swing, two bedrooms including master bedrooms spik and span. Next, third bedroom cum work space cum storage cum antique display cabinets... cabinets, done! metal rack mounted with newpapers, bundled up using miller’s knot secured into a pile ready to be dispatched with not so far away, across the street newspaper guy , our famous Mumbai raddi waala! Coming back to the metal rack, “We have two vintage blue racks with 3 old standalone shelves each which my fil refuses to part with” ๐. Mounted with a minumum of 50 books, someone may think its a ’Hub’ of divine books, a good well maintained collection of holy books. With this last object left to immaculate, I decided to be Doris as in the lady from the picture and lift with all my might in a jiffy, without having realised the weight. 1, 2 ,3 and all comes to a standstill, a little jolt and I think to myself, “ Feeling a little weird , disoriented!” Mil to the rescue, pop a pill and I’m fine the next morning. “ It was definitely over 80kg”. Diwali break still on! A cough, paralytic mode for a split second. Quick call to hubs to come back home . Another quick appointment with my trusted family doctor to know its a slipped disc and complete bed rest for 15 days. That’s when I discovered another secret about my myself, I can stare at the fan for hours without any thoughts crossing my mind. “Mine’s definitely not a devil’s mind” ๐ Lets start a new read、‘Women in the window’. What next !Lets write... Voila!!
