Need to be more cautious

Three days, there has been three things that happened and made me realise how serious and more watchful I should be.

Day before yesterday: Suddenly I realised one of my ring is not seen in my finger.... I didnt know where I kept it and could not think of any place where it would be. By the time I realised this I was in office. I am not able to concentrate on my work and cannot think of ways to find it out back. I took an hour permission to quickly go home and check the ring. All along my way I was telling myself, remain calm you will find it out..... but how could this one ring vanish suddenly when other rings are present. FYI I wear 3 ring all the time. Dont ask me why, each one has a special meaning for me. Now coming back to my ring search, I finally reached my house and started to search the ring all over and atlast! I found it. It was lying near the bed. God knows when this has fallen down. I told myself ok, I should be careful with things. I need to be more cautious.

Yesterday: I was planning to go out and in the mean time I got a call from one of the vendor to whom I should issue a cheque. In a hurry I just gave the vendor a blank cheque :( I just wrote his name and gave him the cheque. I didnt realise it and he also didnt bother to cheque the amount. I have to pay him 6000Rs however now he has a cheque that is addressed to his name with signatures and if we wants he can fill whatever amount he want. So I still left the place not realising the biggest blunder that I have made. When I was waiting near the signal at ritchie street, it striked me, I was trying to recollect but couldnt rewind a scene back in my mind where I was writing Rupees Six thousand only. I put a pause immediately both to my mind and to my car. I called up the vendor and he happily says "aamam sir...neenga amounte fill pannala...kavala padaatheenga sir naan fill panni pottukren" How can I be in "Dont worry mode"? I think I made a very big mistake. I rushed to the vendor's shop to see the cheque before it is deposited. The cheque was not available, they asked me to come at 1 o clock, I called them again at 1 o clock, they said the person is still out so they dont have the cheque with them, but again I called them back at 3 o clock and finally the cheque was available, I went there to physically examine what was written over the cheque and the kind hearted vendor has filled it out for Rs Six thosuand Only. Now I feel little eased but then again I reminded myself that I need to be more cautious.

Today - 7 AM in the morning, my wife hates this but I try to cheque my blackberry before anything even a coffee or newspaper but I couldnt find it out.... I dont know where it must be lying. I searched the usual place where it has been spotted several times but NO ... no luck... went ahead with the daily morning chores and again a sudden gush of fear... what if I lost my blackberry...ooops... then i started to search it again silently...because if my dear wife knows about my search operation, the first thing I will hear is "How many time should I tell you?" You know what I have been telling this myself all the time but i dont know it is not working...I am making a consious effort to forget things or misplace them.... ok whatever back to BSO(Blackberry Search Operation) after some 30 mintues of rigourous search I found the blackberry at last, it was inside my jeans pocket and the jeans was hanging in a coat stand which is my mom's room. :D With a deep breath, I started to tell myself once again that I need to be extra cautious.

P.S: Guess what I forgot my ID card to office today ......

first time here through gils blog, I can totally relate to this, sometimes i too get into the habbit of making mistakes and forget stuff but i get on track again, Paulo stories says these are the signals that devil sends so we would be very careful for something bigger to come hehe :)

It was fun reading this post, very easy read and witty narration.
