 We started from Toronto after 2 Hours
We were at Kingston -- Years Back
It was Capital of Canada

We stopped there to Have Our Lunch
Kids Love Pizza so Whatever They Choose

 As We were Moving away from Toronto
Weather Becoming Cooler and Cloudy
Kingston is 2 -- 3 Hours away from Ottawa

 We are Getting closer to Ottawa -- Thunder
and Heavy Shower started

Ottawa is a Beautiful City of Lakes --- Half of
the City is the Province of Ontario the Other Half
is in the Province of Quebec

 I used to Live in Ottawa for Couple of Years
Still Remember It's Tulip Festival every Year in
the First Week of May

 Summer is very Short but They Celebrate it Well
Winter -- Very Long We can see some Ice Floating on
the Surface of Lakes even in the Month of May
It was an Amazing Experience to Observe

 Two to Three More Hours of Drive to Montreal
Now We are Passing Montreal Stopped at Tim Horton
to Have Tea  -- Coffee and Hot Chocolate

 In the Province of Quebec You wont see Single
Sign in English All French Everywhere
We had to Face some Difficulty in Ordering Tea -- Coffee
and such Stuff Even in McDonald and Tim Horton

Two to Three More Hours Drive We are in Quebec
City -- at 8.30 pm We were at Hotel -- Econo Lodge
We will Stay for Overnight

My Son Booked Two Rooms and I was Feeling Lucky
as All of My Three Grand Kids wanted to Stay in
My Room -- Feeling Cozy Doing Their Own Work

My Son Has to Flip Coin My Eldest Lost so Reluctantly
Moved to another Room -- I was Feeling Like
Lucky Grandma

Tomorrow We will Walk around the City of Quebec
Then Move to Another Spot

    Dear Madam Smile, You so good. You write good to. I go job worker with video kid and say her do you kid want sleep in your room. She say no he sleep in own room. I say but my Madam so favourite that she grandbabies want sleep in her room. No one want sleep with her only son because she get them buns and give them money for food and no ask them to pay for her like Dear Kris father. I think she remember joke. I do 2 proud job and always read blog

    Dear Advisor,

    The retirees went for our long walk today. This walk, though very long for us, is nothing compared to the walks that you have. We had our lollipop after that

    The retirees read your blog and we were puzzled that your grandkids choose to stay in your room. Though very few of us go on vacations with our grand kids but when we do, our grand kids do not want to stay in the same room with us. We know that for a fact because we did a poll and not a single retired lady or gentleman had this situation where a grand child wanted to stay with them. There was however one occasion where a grand child was forced by the parents to sleep in the same room with a retiree, but that was as a punishment for the child and not a reward.

    The retired chef and the cafe manager wanted me to let you know that your today's recipe was delicious. They are both going to include them in the Smile menu. The cafe is serving Morning Smile breakfast all day now as it is part of the Smile menu. It is one of the most popular item in the cafe.

    The subcommittee on parenting is asking for your advice about teen issues. Also the Smile with Smile program team wants to update their collateral before the next school season starts. Their plans are to roll out additional training for parents of teenage kids in September. If you can please give it some thought when you get a chance

    thank you
    recent retiree

    Dear Author,

    We read your blog at the Smile Garden today. We have not been going to SRC since the accident involving digital media and the Encyclopedia. The Dean participated in the reading of the blog also. He appears to be in really good mood since yesterday. He was in a very bad mood last week. The Smile Army volunteers made a special cake today. They want to have this week set aside as celebratory week. Usually very few students are here at this time of the year but the campus is buzzing with lots of students. Instead of the empty campus last week, it is now full. The vendors are also enjoying it, as it means extra sales for them.

    All the students were surprised that your grand kids wanted to sleep in your room. None of us actually wanted to do that during vacation. Our parents will threaten us that if we dont behave, they will make us go to the grandparent's room. One of the Smile Army volunteer joked that in their family also there used to be a toss to confirm who is going to sleep in grandma's room. However the loser had to sleep in the room and not the winner

    The Dean wanted to invited the Law department to the reading but he noticed that the school students are here even though it is their summer vacation so he asked the students to listen to the blog and have rescheduled the Law Department's reading appearance

    All in all, it is a fun atmosphere in our campus.

    thank you

      I was so upset after reading today's blog. Smile's grandsons are sponging Smile. I bet that even the coin for the coin toss was provided by Smile and one of the little bozo pocketed it. I guess Smile's son has trained the little nuisances to flash his toothless smile to get Smile to loosen the purse string. This is ridiculous. I guess the little devil's dad trained them well. And then this inane comment, my blood pressure is going through the roof

      thanks mrizvi. I guess we should thank you right

    Welcome back Smile. I am out camping without the internet since last week. I was hanging out in the house for a few days but realized that there is no point and decided to take a little mini vacation. I thought you will be back next week so am still at the camp ground with no electricity let alone any internet. I charged my laptop earlier today and using data from my phone, am posting this comment

    Thank you and welcome back

  January 12th 2024 It is around mid of January. Time for us to, start getting snow storms. This will be off an on, for the next couple of weeks. It is 10.15, mixed sunny cloudy morning, windy too. Gusts are 38 to 48 km.  Friday used to be my work day, not today. Kids day camp is going on in the library, at my work place. I am off for the whole week. I have to find my own things to do, to get busy. From Monday, things will be back on track. I will be having my regular work hours. It is 11.45, I am getting ready to walk to Tim Hortons. I take it as my second home. I know that it is cold and windy. I am all set with gloves, stole and three layers underneath my winter coat. I will be fine. Whites Road and walkway is, all clear of snow. I see some white patches of snow, by the side of road, under trees and bushes. This is the beauty of Toronto, snow cleared right away. It looks like a usual wintry day. No snow. Everything working, normal routine. Nothing stops, so is my walk. I am at Tim H

  July 7th 2023 It is hot sunny morning, 9.15 and already 24 C, feel like 26. I woke up early, done with my breakfast. Talked to one of my daughters, my middle one, called me from Grimsby.  She was going home, done with her work. It was a brief talk. She was busy, picking up her son, on the way from school. My other daughters are still at work. They will call me later on. We talk everyday, not much, just to connect.  I am busy with my computer. No message from my childhood friend. She never skips, must be busy. She was at her son's place in Sydney, was planning to go back to Perth, to be with her daughter. She must be stuck, other matters to be resolved. Anyway we have to find our own, "Things to do", to get busy, to make our day. Don't have to wait for people's calls and messages. I am busy playing Scrabble and Card games on my computer. Computer is sort of Blessing for me. I don't know how my Mom used to pass her time without phone and computer. How come she

  June 13th 2023 Beautiful morning. Great weather. It was raining all day, yesterday. Stopped at late night. I was working, Mondays are my work days. Have to go to play Darts. It starts at 9.30 in mornings. We were thirteen all together. Picked our numbers to make teams. Two boards with four teams. Three players in each. One team was odd, I mean with four. Anyway we enjoyed. Thirteen seniors on a rainy day, out to play, to enjoy time together. Amazing at that age. Gives inner peace. Boosts will power with affirmation that we still can do it. Rain or no rain, nothing can stop, to make our day. I think, will is everything behind your motto. When there is a will, there is always a way to go ahead, to move on, to do what you want. Today is Tuesday, weather is great 18 C, a bit on a cooler side. I am off, not working on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Last week I booked my flight to England. My daughters were pushing me for that. Asking me to come, to visit. Travel is too demanding at our age. Too
