My Mind -- My Buddy -- My Time Manager
It is Saturday bright beautiful sunny morning with 22 C
After my breakfast, watched Little House on The Prairies to
spend sometime with my son. Everyone else sleeping.
Yesterday in the evening I was at Petticoat Creek, water at lake
was looking great. Couple of ducks sailing on one side, seagulls
busy talking to each other having party on the other side. People
were busy with fishing and walking around.
It is 11.30, beautiful weather for my walk, I am at Tim Horton,
enjoying my coffee writing my Blog. Yesterday I talked to my
Youngest sister, she lives in Chicago.
She was complaining about nothing to do and not easy to pass time.
I started thinking that how come I am always short of time. Always
so much to do, 24 hours never enough for me.
I am long time retired so what am I busy with? I think credit goes
to my Mind. I believe it never gets rusted rather groomed with age.
Our Mind has very strong bond with our Body.
Mind knows how to tackle our aging body. When I come back from
library or from my walk, my Eldest asks me to make banana shake.
He doesn't like smoothie but I always mix yogurt in my shake.
Being old I am not so good for meat, doesn't work for me so I prefer
dairy products to get my proteins. Anyway I usually come back
after 3 pm, take quick shower and make shake for my Eldest.
My Youngest back from school at 3.30, I keep ready toasted peanut
butter jam slices with a cup of hot chocolate milk for him. It becomes
4 pm. From 4 to 5 pm is my time alone with my computer.
After 5 pm is my downstairs time with my family. Watching TV,
having tea with my son and my daughter in law. Keep in mind that
we are not indispensable. No one needs me.
My Mind handles everything so well just to let me feel happy.
My Mind tracks my time slots, when there is nothing to fill in,
reminds me to make phone calls, to go to walk, play scrabble
and Sudoku.
My mind is my great buddy, always pushes me to get going.
I salute you my Mind, my friend, for everything. Thanks for
giving me all the happiness.
Dear Retirees my Friends, I strongly oppose this idea of taking
action against any of your members. Just forget and forgive and
please close this chapter. Move on I love to see everyone of you
to enjoy Blog Reading sessions. Just relax and be happy.

ReplyDeleteDear Advisor,
ReplyDeleteThe retirees appreciate your blog today. As per your instructions the retirees have cancelled all the investigative committees. The lady is not happy and is stil insisting that we continue to make the efforts to get to the bottom of what happened. She again called for a resolution for this however the resolution did not pass as there were not enough votes due to your instructions. The retirees listen to your instructions very religiously.
The joint family subcommittee and the Smile with Smile program have requested additional information on these topics. They said that a lot of time has been spent in the recent past because of the temple issues and other subjects have taken a back seat. The Lady however was not pleased and said that these items are less important. She said not to ask you for details about any topic until the temple investigation is complete so as to avoid getting the temple issue be defocused.
thank you

Dear Author,
ReplyDeleteWe read your blog at the Smile Garden today. We were again treated to cup cakes by Mrs. Lucy. She only comes to the readings on the weekends because she is not eligible to participate with student activities during weekdays. Aside from cup cakes she also got stir fry fish. When the Dean asked her as to why so much celebration, she said that this is to celebrate the big victory that you have had and to celebrate you
thank you

Your blogs for the weekend are acting as a restorative for your readers. You have been enthralling us with captivating chronicles. Your encounters with the sea-fowl is interesting as they are known as shy creatures. We think that the reason they are not choosing to aviate as you approach is because of the tenderness of your temperament
ReplyDeleteThank you for making our days brighter

What is this! This is beyond weird. There is nothing, absolutely noting, that I can say or do to help these young kids. The sad thing is that they will be the future. We were teenagers too, and I thought a little crazy, but this is off the chart! I know, I know
ReplyDeleteGreat work mrizvi. Thank you so much for a fantastic comment. Way to go. Beyond brilliant
Caaaaaaaaaaaaaaaallllmmmmmmmmmm down! Just Reeeeeeeeeeeelax. Get some fresh air. Keep going at this pace, and you will pop an artery. Take it easy. Good thing that you remember Smile's message of kindness
ReplyDeleteThanks mrizvi. Nice of you to let us know that this is a good post. Hope school is going well
So I have been wrong all along to call Smile an artist. She is a photographer plus an artist plus much more. Dont believe me. Well read this and then close your eyes and tell me honestly if you can not have a better description of Petticoat Creek

Brilliant !!
