A couple of weeks back, wifey dear was diagnosed with Dengue. Before you panic - she is alright now and recovering.
She might not be afraid of anything else, but post this incident, she is definitely scared of mosquitoes. Oh... I so envy you.... you lucky mosquitoes....
However that's not the only thing that has changed; there are many other. For example, my contribution to Indian economy has increased.
Fruit sellers have started earning more (of course from my pocket). A nariyal pani wala has got a new daily customer.

Shares of companies like Odomos, Mortein, All Out etc. are soaring. We're using so many products that mosquitoes have started behaving like whales. Doesn't make sense? Here is how - just like a whale has to emerge out of water for breathing, mosquitoes have to step out of our apartment for fresh air.
Supermarkets like Easy Day, More. are seeing huge profits. Why? Because sometimes we might enter the store to pickup just one item, but we never NEVER come out with just one item. And, if anyhow (in rarest of rare cases) we come out with just one item, it is never NEVER the item that we went inside for.
Dr. Lal Pathlabs' business is flourishing. Now whenever I enter their premises, I wonder if they are going to welcome me with flowers.
I've also started wondering whether Airtel & Vodafone are planning to give me any discount because of so many calls that we have been receiving.
Papaya leaves from nearby papaya tree have vanished. Now I've to get them from a neighbouring society (on a serious note - papaya leaves have been very useful in wifey's recovery). Entire kitchen seems to have been papaya-fied :)
So, the only good thing that has happened is - I've started contributing in household activities! I call it shramdaan (श्रमदान); although some people prefer to call it "life of a husband". What? You don't agree? You feel it's not really a good thing for me. Well, this proves two things:
1- You are my true well wisher :)
2- Who said that the good thing was for me, it's for my dear wifey. Get well soon honey!!!

ha ha ha goood one..really njoyed. hope ankita is good now.
Thats why say "ki EK machhar(Mosquito) bhi Market ko....."
Khuda kare ki Dengue ke machhar ko Malaria ka machhar kaat khaye....& vice versa.....
Gul paji,
I agree on the state of husband when his wife gets ill, also at that time shramdaan becomes mandatory and large in quantity.
Hope bhabhi will get well soon.
Bcoz that would be a real gift to you. Atleast your shramdaan would work and you can get rid of it :).
