About Gita Mehta

This is about the Indian writer, Gita Mehta, who attended Woodstock School (Mussoorie, India) a long time ago (1950s) and her fantastic accomplishments over the years.

This last week (12-19 September 2015) a friend sent me a link (Melwani below) which highlighted the Ganesh book by Gita Mehta – reminding me of the achievements of one of my high school classmates. Where have all my class mates gone?

This morning Deej's friend's guys came and cut up one downed rotted maple, and then fell a second rotted one, sawed it up, and took it all away in two hauls in about 2 hours - fast work, and pretty cheaply - boy, am I glad to have that over. We've continued to have high winds all day long, but no further big trees knocked over. Here's how the back yard looked, the day after the high winds on the 26th December 2007: And here's a composite photo from today: Here's a little 31 second video of cutting down the dead tree: also at Google Video

Hard? in the time of Covid

     When will it be over? This pandemic or time of Covid is hard - changing routines, meetings, work, places to go, people to meet - all a little or a lot different. Haven't seen my Charlottesville families for almost 2 years (except for the 3 holidays) - feel isolated.       Luckily being with Deej helps - daily walks and 15 minute meditation, food, shopping.  Deej has been making supper almost every night - because of her Crohn's disease, we have changed to foods which she can eat. She's taken up and added serious daily exercises.     Online is nice in some ways - being able to do work from home is nice - though I had a work computer crash once already and the laptop has not fully recovered. And it's hard not to be face to face with other workers, especially liaisons. Zoom is nice, but also not the same - connections are not close, not complete, cold. Kara helped send infected Kerchof Hall library books to her freezer and they are just now (mid-Feb 2022) okay to send
