27th Day.

This is the 27th day of the fasting month. It is said that the last 10 days Ramadan brings out a lot of good for Muslims. It rains since early morning, that's good for it cools the air around and makes this fasting exercise bearable. Time really flies now that we are coming to almost the end of the fasting month. People are not keen on doing serious work (at least some of them). They have shopping in their minds. Tomorrow will be Deepavali and that will be the start of a week-long break for me. A normally quiet Hindu neighbour had a lot of visitors last night, they must be in joyous mood with family get-togethers and building up the atmosphere for the festivities.
Already quite a few things lined up for me to work on after my return on the 8th and if I keep thinking about them I won't enjoy this break. What is certain is that after today school is off too until the new year. That means less traffic on the road when I travel to and from work.That's a most welcome break.
