Diwali was very subdued. It was a usual weekend day, soccer and stuff. We did not even have fireworks as K. was concerned about the dry leaves. Very disappointing, but there you have it. Went for a Diwali party/birthday party Friday evening. After ages, I wore a sari, one of the six I had bought for my wedding nearly ten years ago. It felt good to see that I fit into the blouse again (I had ballooned in the in-between, i.e. baby-production, years) and in fact the sleeves are slightly loose now. It felt good in general to be dressed up for a change although it is of course difficult to be chasing a toddler around in a silk sari.
News from Kolkatta is also sombre. Loved ones who are seriously ill. It's a grim Diwali all around.
