Would you believe it if I told you I was just going to wish you good night?? But you know it is so tempting when you come online because of our time differences you see - I dont mind losing sleep to chat with you (remember what you did on Mar 28??) - it is fun..
That is right, but I also know from experience, that it is hard to fall asleep as soon as we are offline, our minds don't work that way, they are too excited for atleast one more hour. I don't mean to advice you, but we need our Judy all healthy the following day too - how selfish of me! :)
I don't think you're sleepy yet, at least doesn't look like it! :)
The swastik is running anticlockwise, which is considered inauspicious according to some people.
Gowri, very nice chalk kolam put in the cement corridor of an HDB flat in Singapore I think.
I was in your place until last month end and without color or white kola podi I also was handicapped. but after sometime wet kola maavu came to my help.
Since you have asked more details about padikolam please visit my gallery and see Mr mOhanaji's comments and informations about padikolams.
Thanks for correcting me, this is called kid learning to walk :-). i am very happy someone is there to correct me ... Will take care while putting swastik mark.. Love you all.

The svAstik sign is directional. There are two possibilities, one you drew and the
other its mirror image. I still don't understand why one is considered holy and the
other is not. Incidentally, in science the anti-clockwise driection (like the one
you have) is always considered positive! In the same way, the way most south Indian
wear their sari is considered positive even though the helical direction is
anticlockwise. When a political party in Tamilnadu split and one of the factions
had its flag with the leader's image on the flag, the question arose as to which way
he must face! I think it is all in convention.
