<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">MasterChef Australia is a great show! When it's on, we get it 5 days a week. There are TONS of episodes. The thing that makes it really cool is that the judges and contestants are all so nice! The contestants don't stab each other in the back and they even help each other! </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Anyway, the other night (a couple of weeks ago) some friends of ours were in town and wanted to go to Chili's, so we went over to the mall to eat :) When we got there we saw that the bookstore had the Judges (and very famous chefs/restaurant owners) inside signing cookbooks! </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">When we got inside, they had just closed off the line, so we weren't allowed to go through the line and get them to sign a cookbook or get a pic with them :( </span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">So... we stood as close as we could and took pics :) haha! (and I didn't have my camera, only my phone to take pics)...</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">This year, our neighborhood was quite active for Dusshera. At one end of our street, one of the major political parties here, set up a Dusshera celebration. Here are some guys putting the effigies together and filling it full of fireworks!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">They had quite the political statement for their celebration. (Basically that expensive water, fuel, electricity, diesel, gas, etc and FDI (bringing in foreign companies like Wal-Mart) are like Raverna (the demon god)... and are the evils of today....)</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> They burned VERY quickly at this one... So quickly that by the time I pulled out my camera, it was already on the ground!!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> Many people will get a piece of the leftover wood/bamboo to keep in their house for the coming year as good luck. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> Next we went to the school that is next to our house. They have been having big celebrations all week performing the Ramlila (story of Ram's life). My kitchen window overlooks the school... so we're really close. We could hear all of the celebrations all week. On Dusshera there were thousands of people there!</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> We hung out inside the school for a little while and rode the carnival rides while the Ramlila was going on (I'll post pictures of the Carnival rides on the other blog) and when it got insanely packed, we went to our roof to see the effigies burn. It looks far away, but it was really close... the roof that's in the picture is the school's roof....</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">October 24th is a holiday here called Dusshera (or Dussehra - Click <a href="http://southasiarocks.blogspot.in/search/label/Dusshera" target="_blank">HERE</a> to see older posts on Dusshera). On this holiday, people will gather at parks, where huge statues of Ravana (the demon god) are burned at the end of the night. It celebrates the triumph of good over evil. Anyway, the other day we were on the metro and we saw where there were making a BUNCH of the statues and decided to jump out and check them out!<span style="text-align: left;"> </span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">We went out of town week before last to Nepal. When we left, I left a few carrots on the kitchen counter. It was pretty hot and dry before we left (now we're in Monsoon!)... and well, the carrots shriveled to nothing! It's pretty amazing how much they changed! I guess our house is pretty hot :) haha! Here they are next to a new fresh carrot so you can see how much they shrank! Awesome!

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">In October (just after our vacation to the beach where <a href="http://southasiashefs.blogspot.in/2011/10/very-scary-day.html" target="_blank">Diya fell off the balcony</a>), I got a cold. During my cold my ears started to hurt a lot and my right ear was totally clogged! I looked up every home remedy and I tried them all (just about)... but it stayed clogged and I couldn't hear out of my right ear at all. I figured it would just go away, but it never did. One day I noticed that I was losing my balance a lot more. I knew the ear can mess with your balance so I figured that was what it was. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I started having daily balance problems. Then, after a couple of days, I got my first experience with vertigo. It was horrible... I was nauseous, vomiting and my whole body was spinning while I was laying still (and it lasted 6 hours!!!). After that I decided it was time to go to the doctor. We went in the morning to an ENT and he prescribed some antibiotics. I took those for a few days while still having vertigo just about every evening. During that time I tried out quite a few ENT doctors. One doctor said my vertigo was from using my computer... I was looking up my symptoms online and I have EVERY symptom of <a href="http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/menieres-disease/DS00535" target="_blank">Meniere's Disease</a>, but no doctor even mentioned that. At that point I knew that I needed to find a really good ENT. I was having vertigo at least once a day and it was no fun!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Adam remembered about a great ENT that works at a hospital next to our house (he used him for a physical once). He has many inventions that are used around the world and is pretty famous (and is the Prime Minister's ENT!), so we wanted to give him a try! He had another office, so we went to that. I met with him and after I told him my story he said: "I think you have <a href="http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/menieres-disease/DS00535" target="_blank">Meniere's Disease</a>. Let's do some tests to confirm and see." I did some ear tests and he said all of my symptoms and everything else was completely typical of <a href="http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/menieres-disease/DS00535" target="_blank">Meniere's Disease</a>, and he diagnosed me with that.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">He put me on some medication that completely stopped my vertigo!! It was AWESOME!!!! I also had to start a Low-Sodium diet (which is really hard to do!!) But, after a month, I started having vertigo again. This time I was having vertigo episodes anywhere from one to three times a day! They would last anywhere between 1 hour and 6 hours! Anyway, to make a long story short, the doctor would try another medicine, and it would work and then after a while it would stop working again. The only thing that did work were the steroids. He didn't want to put me on them for over a week (because of the side effects) but he also wanted to see if they worked. Well, they did work, so after trying the oral steroids twice and having positive results from those, the next thing to try was steroid injections in my ears (it doesn't have the side effects that taking oral steroids does).... to do that, they had to put a tube/grommet in my ear. </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">So, on Monday I had the surgery! Here I am right before the surgery :)</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> This was a minor surgery, but it was my 3rd surgery in South Asia! Crazy hunh? (The other two were c-sections). We "tried out" a new hospital for this surgery. It's the one my ENT doctor works out of and it's only one Metro stop from our house, so it was really convenient. We were really impressed with it (for the most part :)) </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">They took me from my "cubicle" above in "Day Care" (for outpatients) and wheeled me into the pre-op/post-op room. Adam wasn't allowed in, so he took a picture from the door. </span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> I was in a "pre-op" room for a while (one surgery before me got complicated), so I had to wait around for a while (about 4 hours)... Luckily I had a fun nurse friend who got my book out of my room so I could read while I waited. We also watched some TV together - it was pretty fun :)</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Eventually I went in for surgery. I only had Local Anesthesia, but they did sedate me, so I only remember the first few minutes of being in the operating room. The surgery itself only lasted about 10 minutes. I hung out in post-op for a little while and then they wheeled me back into my cubicle in "day care". </span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> So I got my first steroid injection during the surgery, so the next day I went to my doctor's office and got another injection.... It HURTS!!!!

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I had another steroid injection in my ear yesterday (ouch!!). Since the surgery I have not had any vertigo!!!! Praise G0d!!! My doctor is out of town the rest of the week, so I'll resume the injections on Monday. Please pray that the vertigo doesn't come back between now and then!!! We're going to our friend <a href="http://southasiarocks.blogspot.in/2009/10/wedding-part-1.html" target="_blank">Mayank</a>'s wedding this weekend!!! I'd love not have vertigo for the drive there & back and for the wedding!!!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Thanks everyone for praying!!!!</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">This picture was taken near our house.

<span style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"> The other day at the girls' school this lady was picking up her son.

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Sorry for the lack of posting... This Meniere's Disease has been killer... ugh!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Anyway... just though I'd post <i>something</i> :) I wasn't sure what to post (I've been in bed with vertigo a lot)... so I thought I'd post something that I see daily...</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">This time of year there is quite a bit of humidity in the Capital. Since we don't have central heating or AC, the humidity is in the house also ... which means that air-drying clothes can be challenging! </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The other day Adam got creative and made a "clothes dryer" for us :) </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">He put all the wet clothes on our clothes drying rack and then covered it with 2 double sheets and pinning it with clothes pins. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> Then we put our blower heater under it... and even have a vent on top (this wasn't a good pin job this day... we've gotten better) :) And there you have it! A (really ugly) Clothes Dryer! :) It works awesome!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Here's one of the markets next to our house... Adam loves this section of the market - it's a Mobile/Cell Phone Market :) </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"> On our second day in Kathmandu, we went to Thamel. It's an area of town that has a lot of shops and fun food places! We all bought new jackets and we ate at a really fun Brick Oven Pizza Place (Roadhouse Cafe). The market was really fun :)</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"> The guesthouse we were staying in was near the Tibetan area of town. We LOVED it! There was a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boudhanath" target="_blank">Stupa</a> in walking distance from where we stayed and there were places to eat and shop all around it. It was VERY interesting. The first night we were there was the last day of a holiday, so everyone was out and about :)</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">This picture (below) isn't funny because the restaurant is called "Yo! China" (it's actually a huge chain and pretty good!!!)... I think it's funny because of the huge sign next to it that says "Calories"... it must say something else in the fine print, but I'd say that their advertising scheme is lacking something.... "Come to Yo! China and you can have Calories!!!" :) haha!</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"> We stopped at a little store in the middle of the safari (that was surrounded by an electric fence!) and when we got out of our jeeps, the monkeys came running in and looked for things to take! One monkey even started eating some of the car!</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"> Our train ride home was uneventful! Last year this same train stopped on the tracks for 4 hours - yuck! and was really late! BUT this year our train was only about 30 minutes late! The kiddos slept for some of the trip... it was pretty easy!</span></div>
