    Thank you @Greenbay .
    Yes, you are right. Its been hard, especially the first several days and I was careful to eat properly just so that I don't crash.
    Thank you @Mistt
    Sir is getting better everyday. While it is going to be a slow recovery, it is steadily getting better. There is some "me" time the last couple of days, an hour or so.
    Thank you @Caughtinbetween
    Yes, I have been careful about food.It was tempting to eat comfort foods which would have had me tired and irritable. Fortunately I am cautious. Thank you for your wishes.

    Not only the right food but there is another important tool that has always been my help during testing times. That is humor. Once I began to see the different ways God is playing I could only smile it was easy for me to accept and simply do what is expected of me without any self-pity or irritability. I have written a small snippet on this.

    How did you communicate with Mrs V or is she out of town? Try as I might silence is an impossibility right now. This morning was a chaotic cacophony. :argue: Totally lost it at the kids. Infuriating little... :BangHead:! Now I get to deal with mommy-guilt for the rest of the day. Sigh. :facepalm:

    @Gauri03,

    Guess who was happy that I was muted for so many days!!! The primary complaint is I lecture too much and this period of my forced silence is a golden period for the whole family. I am with you on not being silent unless it is forced on me due to health.

    The future geniuses rise by making the parents get mad at them. :banana::banana:

    Is it truly a mother's guilt or sulking after you got squarely defeated in the intellectual debate with the little geniuses? :number_one::number_one:

    Ha ha! Do you give Mrs V discourses on the Mandukya Upanishad? I can understand her joy at your silence. :banana:


    It's not what they say. It's the tone! And the eyerolling has started! Not so much little geniuses, more little rascals!
