PUTTING ON YOUR SOCKS-676

                   PUTTING ON YOUR SOCKS 

BY THE LOOK OF IT , PUTTING ON ONE'S SOCKS MAY NOT APPEAR SUCH A BIG DEAL FOR MANY. THOSE WHO ARE DOING SO AFTER A CONSIDERABLE LENGTH OF TIME ARE SURE TO FIND IT RATHER DIFFICULT. 

I RECENTLY RECEIVED A VIDEO CHALLENGE TO PUT ON THE SOCKS AS IN THE VIDEO .


AS ALL OF YOU MAY BE AWARE , I WAS IN CANADA AS RECENTLY AS A MONTH BACK . JAN AND FEB ARE THE MONTHS WHEN THE WINTER AND THE CHILL WEATHER ARE AT THEIR HARSHEST. 

ANY VENTURE OUT OF THE HOUSE IS NOT WITHOUT MAKING USE OF  THE WINTER HEAVY SHOES . IT BECOMES MANDATORY TO PUT ON YOUR SOCKS FIRST . 

I MUST ADMIT THAT THIS HAS NEVER BEEN AN EASY JOB . AFTER MANY PAINSTAKING AND VARIOUS OTHER  TRIALS I REALIZED THAT THE BEST WAY TO PUT ON YOUR SOCKS IS TO SIT ON STEPS OF THE STAIRS AND TRY AND PUT THE SOCKS ON YOUR FEET . EVEN THEN IT IS NEVER AN EASY JOB , THE KNEE - HAND - FEET COORDINATION COMES GOOD ONLY AFTER MANY FAILED ATTEMPTS . 

IT DOES HELP IF YOU HAVE YOUR GRANDKID TO HELP YOU OUT AT THE LAST STAGE .

YOU COME TO REALIZE THAT LIFE HAS COME ONE BIG CIRCLE . YOU HELPED HIM OR HER WHEN THEY WERE OFF TO SCHOOL AS A KID  AND NOW IT IS THEIR TURN TO HELP YOU  DO SO FOR THEIR GRANDFATHER .

 VAIKOM VISIT - IN GODS OWN                     COUNTRY  Kerala has always been my favourite place of visit over the years . Its cleanliness , its greenery,  waterways , not to forget its spirituality and beautiful people in more ways than one  have always held  a special attraction for  me . We , that is me and my Better Half have visited Kerala before  and visited many of  its  Temples and Tourist Attractions.  One place missing in this list has been the Viakom  Sri Mahadeva Temple . We decided to embark  on  a visit to this place and Mami was spot on to point out that there was a direct Train from Ambasamudram to Vaikom Road by the 16792 Palaruvi Express starting from ASD at 11.57 PM and reaching Vaikom Road Station at 7.30 Am the next morning . Nothing could be better ,  We made the Reservations for both the Up  and Down Jorneys on the 11 th and 13 th June with our  return slated from Ernakulam Town as we planned to visit the Chottanikara Bhaghavati Amman Temple on the 13 th mornin

Setting Foot on the  Northern Most  Point Thus Far Travelled by Me . Coming as this does within 10 days of my arrival in Canada, our trip to Waskesiu was unique in more ways than one . Waskesiu which is about 450 Kms from Regina and is at the Northern Most point in the Saskatchewan Province of Canada .  As with most other regions , this place is unique for ,  Literally 100 s of waterfronts and beaches . Shrouded by tall trees all around where the Suns Rays rarely reach the ground level directly and unhindered . Home to Bear , Deer and Elf . We were lucky to spot all the three during our trip on Road . There are Beautiful Resorts all around where visitors from all  across Canada , spend Time and Money in huge numbers to savor the Natural Beauty which is in abundance here . During Summer Months the Weather in these areas are on the lines of Kodaikanal or Uthagamandalam at its coldest . Winter around these parts is even more awesome with the entire area in a sheet of Ice . Skaking, Snowmo
