Fresh linen

Almost midnight and I think its gone if I don't ponder this at this hour! The hallway as Shikhar corrects me just before he slept off tonight.. smells of fresh linen from the auto fragrance device that hasn't exhausted itself yet since I last called all the ladies over. Sweet! But that sure acts as a push to present all that has taken place today. An eventful day indeed... How could I forget, my biggest nightmare coming partially alive today. As I headed for the extra day of service at HC, Shikhar pointed out... mommy please stay... play with me... I want you to watch me play soccer, and all those alarms that I had been comfortably ignoring.. and thus missing for no certain reason, need to be reminded now on.

Very quick decision taken to detour at the Portsmouth road today almost made me realize.. never to do so again... I think I need to pen this down to keep bringing back my memory on this one... NO HASTE ON THE ROAD please! So, my nightmare... of driving off the road... and continuing to be in the air until I'm over the mountainous regions, plateaus, and then continents, was sure within dreams.. but what happened today was no less than it coming to life! At least in the dream I wouldnt get injured.. even though the fall and thuds would be huge... but in this reality, the shock was immense! I simply turned to follow the curve on the road and steered into the forthcoming traffic lane... and off the road into the ditch! The car zoomed into the green field below the ground level and almost jumped into the ditch like in the fantasy.. and for a split sec. I thought.. is that the same dream again.. until i saw the car really kept turning.. and came straight back in front facing the road.. I applied brake.. glanced over the clutch... and finally hurriedly put the car into P. GOD forbid.. if there was a vehicle coming from the other end.. I would have been in the hospital right now! The fens had bended with one of the bolts come off and two wires loosened up. But one wire stayed intact, however later him showed it had scratched all the top of my honda family vehicle.

I got out of the car and the lady who had stopped asked me to calm down... sit in the seat and call whoever i wanted to.. i continued to investigate what had happened .. and she continued .. to say... no problem .. I need to calm down first.. she was right.. I looked at the fence, thought for one split second.. could I possibly drive back up and drive off.. and she caught the thought .. and insisted.. no I wont do so... and should call the rescue service. I told her I'd call him which I instantly did followed with no more communication with the lady. I bid thanks to her and she left assuring I was fine. I got back into the seat.. and he got me to call the rescue service. Him would be on he way soon as well... We got the service in about 1.5H and cost to recover, 250 quids! We showed it was a simple job of pull if the wire was removed and put back up... The rescue service guy said he wont be involved and drove off.. called up the police... that reached just in time after our repeated fail trial of driving back onto the road, the slope was too steep and short. We had to finally call a lift truck, and settle damage with the farm. Atleast we were fortunate that everything unfortunate was turning to God saving us. Incidentally there was a church right on top of that juncture..As we would continue to contact the farm over the few days... I transferred 400 quids to the joint account to simply calm the building financial stress..
