Today is Rakshabhandan in which sister’s tie a thread on their brother’s wrists and the brother in turn pledges to protect her from any harm that might befall her. It is quite an important festival for us, for which my sister has come down here.

It also includes her first visit home after her wedding. Mom is very happy and spend the whole days with her.

My cold is worse now. It has turned into a throat infection too and my entire body hurts. I am thankful that today is a holiday otherwise I would never have been able to go to the office today.

And my back account is finally active. My first salary cheque was credit to the account yesterday so I can go and splurge now ;-)
