House construction

A few days back, one of my Dad’s and brother’s friends came to our house casually. They are also staying near our house so they visited. While my brother and dad were speaking in the first building hall, I was writing that day’s email and joined their conversation a little later. I learned he is now a structural engineer running his own construction business when I went. As soon as I got to know him, I asked him some construction-related questions....

All my family members attended our relative’s wedding here in Bangalore today. Even though I was supposed to go, due to the seat limit in the car, I stayed at home. If I had taken our car, I also could have gone… but I usually avoid driving in Bangalore traffic for new places. I’m a kind of safe guy who always likes to play safe games. So I sent all our family members on Ola cab....

Today, while I was working in my home office, at around 4 PM, the light suddenly started dimming. Without giving much attention, I continued my work. Within a few minutes, my PC monitor also got turned off. That time, I understood something was seriously wrong. I immediately turned off my PC directly to prevent any further damage and went to our first house to ask my Dad what went wrong....

Last Sunday, I went outside to bring mutton. While on the way, I noticed a scrap shop where he kept paint buckets outside. In our house, we have lots of paint buckets available. We needed to do something about those. So I asked the scrap shop guy, “How much for a Paint bucket?”. He told me ₹50 per bucket. I was quite shocked listening to the paint bucket price. I was expecting a little bit more costly… Because I need to sell our paint buckets 🙂...

Like every month this month, the bribe-paying time came. I saw our waterman going on bike backside of our house from my CCTV. He also goes slowly when it’s time to get paid. Who doesn’t love to get paid? All love it. I called him to come and collect his monthly bribe. He came. As always, he opened our sump cover to check the water level in the sump. This time, the sump was quite empty....

We were looking for Jali wood diwan cots. In sawmills, they were saying they don’t have jali wood. After asking our carpenter, he suggested a shop where they use only Jali wood to make cots. My dad wants to have cots with only jali wood because of the hardness of the wood, quality and cost. We visited the shop once, enquired about pricing, and came back. Today, my Dad and I went to order a bulk diwan cot for our rental property....

I’m writing this email today after having tea with a little more sugar, which my mom always does anytime she prepares. Today, the construction building, which is happening right in front of my home office, did a material shifting and pillar work with the gang team. This construction is happening in half site. Today, whatever the pillar work they have done is for the 4th floor! Yup! G+3+1 construction going on....

I’ve been trying to order a wet grinder for my home from last month onwards. As always, I placed an order on Amazon.in initially. However, for the first time, I was not confident about placing the order because of the reviews and photos shared in the reviews section. Most of the users commented on the product’s damage in reviews. Still, after thinking a lot, I proceed with the order. The product came as per the scheduled time....

I have a good and bad opinion about installing solar water heaters in the home for various reasons. My personal preference is to go with solar panels. However, due to its low popularity, users are going with solar water heaters. I didn’t install a solar water heater in our second building because of some lessons that I learned in our first building. Today, I’m sharing one more incident that happened a few days back in my home....
