Merry Christmas 
Happy Holidays
To All My Readers Family


Kris My Friend
Niklas Not Supposed To
Help All Time

 Niklas Needs His Time Too
Please Be Considerate

 Father Please Don't Yell
It is Christmas and
New Year Time



It is Sunday Morning Bright Sunshine Still
10 Below Zero So Much Snow On The Ground
Lots Coming Big Snow Storm On The Way
10 To 15 cm will Be added On Top

Guests are Going Back To Houston in The Evening
My Son Has To Drive Them To Pearson Airport
It is 40 Minutes away But in This Condition
Things will Be Very Different

I Told You Before Nothing Stops Here
Life Goes On as Usual People are used To
So No Complains We Can Handle
Just Bring It On

 Let's Talk About Teens Issue Which I Don't Think is
An Issue Not at All -- Not with Teens -- I Think It is
We Parents Have To Be More Flexible

Parents Don't Understand That Now They Don't Have Kids
Anymore They Have Bunch Of Grown up People
Which used To Be Their Kids 

 Parents Have To Realize That Now Everyone Needs
Some Space Of Their Own I Mean Teens Rather Adults
I Don't Doubt Love Of Parents Towards Their Kids

 But They Have To Realize Now They Have Different Needs
They Need Their Own Time Alone -- Here Sibling Problem
Starts When Parents Try To Mingle Them up
To Get a Feel Of " We are Happy Family "

But Now They Have Different Interests and Changed into
Total Different Personalities -- They Have Their Own
Style To Lead Their Life and To Get Enjoyment

They Can Not Enjoy The Same Screen Which Parents
Wish and Demand That Everyone Has To Share
I Mean The Classic Christmas Movie Or Whatever
Parents Choose and Wonder Why Kids Not Enjoying

 I Believe We Parents Not Ready To Accept That
Our Kids are Now Totally Changed We Forget That
They are Growing up and We are Getting Older
We Have To Understand That

 Don't You People Worry This is What We Call
" Generation Gap " Everyone Has To Face That
Until We Parents Realize That We are Using
At Least Quarter Century Back Techniques
To Deal Our Kids

    I dont open my store in Christmas but customers came to my home and asked me to open the store for the blog. This is a small town where everyone knows everyone so I cant say no. I hope you wont mind that I opened the store. I posted the blog and all came to read it after the sermon. The priest was very happy. He usually have a celebratory Christmas meal at the church but today he asked everyone to come to my little shop and they had the meal there. Of course I didnt charge for it as its Christmas

    Dear Advisor,

    The retirees will like to wish you a very Merry Christmas. Though its a holiday but we still read the blog. This was the highlight of our day.

    The Smile with Smile program and other subcommittees have taken copies of the blogs for further analysis and discussion. We only had our meeting today to read your blog and start our Christmas festivities from that.

    thank you

    Dear Author,

    We read your blog with a lot of interest and excitement at the Smile Garden today. There was a huge celebration. You made our Christmas.Prof George and Dean were both present and so was the bookstore manager, the chancelor, the students from the local school and the great friends. Even though the Chancelor was there, the Smile Army said that the guests of honour will be us and the Dean only. The police officer provided the security for this. They were in there everyday clothes.

    Thank you

    This blog is just perfect for Christmas. Smile has written a step by step guide for how to deal with older kids. She has of course written it in her folksy style

    "I Believe We Parents Not Ready To Accept That
    Our Kids are Now Totally Changed We Forget That
    They are Growing up and We are Getting Older
    We Have To Understand That"

    Brilliant!!

  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
