In the time of War!

I don't know. I don't know where to start, what to write about. There are too many things going on right now. Let me tackle them one at a time.  It all started with the war. I was at work, seeing a patient and a warning sounded on my phone. I assumed(hoped) it was another one of those test messages and continued seeing my patient.  Then my phone rang. I completed my examination and saw that my wife was calling. I advised the patient and called my wife back after having seen the alert(it was not a test message). There was a hint of panic in her voice as we discussed the alarm on the phone.  I asked her to collect our son(he was playing in his friend's house on a lower floor - it was a Saturday morning) and go to the groundfloor. As we were speaking, she said, “They've bombed, they are attacking.” The panic also travelled through the phone but I did not want to show it yet. I repeated my words and asked her to collect our son and head to the groundfloor.  I excused mys...

Hello Again

 Is this the longest gap since a blog post? I noticed that it has been more than 3 years since my last post here. A lot more has happened: Our little boy is growing up fast!  I started some YouTube channels Closed that other blog called ElevatedNine Published a short story on Amazon Kindle, am in the middle of writing a novel Am still working outside my native country but my family is with me now :) That's all for now I guess. 

What's Up?

I came back to my beloved first blog after what felt like a few months. It sure doesn't feel like more than two years since the ice-cream cake! A lot has happened since then though. I am a proud father of a cute little boy now. But, I am stuck in another country because of the ongoing pandemic and miss my family and friends very much.  I was just going through my old posts and they brought back a lot of memories. Also, I couldn't believe that I had 85 posts. Wow! Many of the posts are more or less status updates😆 I didn't remember many of the things I had posted here and am starting to feel old now. What else... I am trying my hand at video game making. Started another blog with my wife, it's called Elevated Nine . Have been living alone for the first time in my life and it has been more than a year.... tried my hand at cooking too!  I guess these are the most significant updates since my last post. I am mostly writing this to myself; this blog has become my diary. I d...

An ice cream cake, a matinee movie and dinner

The icecream cake was from Ibaco, movie was Jurassic World: fallen kingdom and dinner was buffet at Kabab Studio. A relaxed day after a long time, all to ourselves. The occasion was my wife's birthday :)

12 years of blogging!

It has been more than 12 years since my first post on this blog! More than 10 years since I seriously started blogging. And more than 3 years since my last post on this blog. Time seriously flies! I was just going through my previous posts, most of them from the year 2008. It was as if my life was playing out in front of my eyes. Lots of fond memories, few frustrations.... Feels good to look back on old memories. Should get back to active blogging. I have started a new blog related to technology: Technology Addict Hoping to continue writing!

Married man!

Yup, that's what I've been for more than an year now. It also has been more than that since I've posted here. Marriage might be one of the reasons!     Done with comprehensive ophthalmology fellowship at Dr Solanki Eye Hospital.... Currently, I am working in Sapthagiri Institute of Medical Sciences. Those are the significant updates in the past year or so.      Happy New Year😃
