43

I turned 43 today; this year significantly changed my life. I am a parent now. It’s not that my worldview suddenly changed since I became a father. Nothing like that has happened. What has happened is I love my new role and enjoy doing the things that come with this role. Hence my life has changed, that’s all.

Weekly Notes 40/2023

We are in Thrissur today. We are here for 3 to 4 weeks as we do almost every quarter. This time, it’s special as it’s the baby’s first long drive. I thought it would be challenging, but it was much easier than I thought. We took additional baby breaks; otherwise, all five of us reached Thrissur comfortably. The car now looks like an overlander. It’s now ready to take us anywhere for a longer period of time; It needs a blog of its own.

It’s been a busy week as parents for us. I didn’t do much work other than attending a couple of meetings. I took some time to build a baby gym for Uma. The build itself took a couple of hours. It would have been much easier and faster if I had a proper woodworking table....
