Tweety notes

It's been a week since I wrote anything. Initially because there was nothing to write, only news worthy as tweets.
Some of the tweets that never went on Twitter include:
* Fire in the kitchen on Wednesday. Caused when some paper around the electric heater caught fire. Averts a major accident when maid douses the fire with water. Not bad, since she herself had stuffed paper around it to avoid the heater heating up the walls. Some burnt paint and burnt switchboard.
* Mira's friendship with Joanne the Joker has gone to the extent of exchanging school bags and napkins. With the result that she missed out on her snacks kept in the other kid's bag the next day. Ash tells me that if she continues doing this, we could think of not giving her any snack; instead, he says, Mira could join the watchman in washing cars and opening gates, something we threaten Ash with when he gets too lazy to study.
* A bad cold gave me two days of rest at home. Ash, however, had to go the paediatrician for a review yesterday. Infections caused by scatching and glandular swellings seem more frequent of late. After a long time, he slept well much of yesterday night.
