Type B

People with B type blood are shy, calm, clear-headed smart and quiet. You have a few very close friends, but overall, you prefer to be alone. You are definitely shy but loving and caring.

Guess that is pretty right about me.

Had a piece on the health insurance scheme for the poor in Kerala to edit. The scheme proposed by the previous Congress government has been dubbed irregular by the present Marxist govt. For one, the tender was awarded to a private insurance company flouting the Central govt norm that it be given to a public sector insurer if it is to enjoy subsidy. Secondly, the Centre doesnt beleive that GOd's Own Country has 25 lakh people living below the poverty line - just 10 lakhs. And so on... The LDF might come up with a new scheme now to outwit the UDF.

Anyway the story has been dropped - lack of space. But I dont mind - I enjoy editing Kerala stories and also, the reporter writes well.

V is at home today - fever. Mira keeps running a high temp at night. Maybe we need to take her to the Dr. again. I have got the 3rd set of tablets and syrups from our office clinic - they are so willing to give but many of us here dont use the facility at all. The Dr. who hasnt seen me after the kids were born was surprised to hear I have 2 toddlers at home. She said: Hats off to u for managing 2 babies!

Huh.

P.S. MIRA STARTED WALKING ON HER OWN YESTERDAY. SHE CAN MANAGE 3-4 STEPS WITHOUT FALLING.
