I Love My Dining Table

-

Image result for backyard garden with flowers pictures












Rainy day still bright and beautiful, 9 C feels like 6 C. I am having my
breakfast sitting beside my kitchen. My oatmeal porridge and stir 
fried egg is right here on my small dining table. We don't use our 
dining room. It is once a while sort of thing. 

 Our Dining room is sort of study room for my Youngest, Slurpee Boy 
and  computer room for my Daughter in law. We use it when we invite 
guests. At that time we have to clear the stuff out and make arrangement 
for a proper dinner. 

So I am sitting beside the small table. It has six chairs all around, enough 
for the whole family, but not fancy ones. I like this table because it is beside 
the patio door. I can enjoy the scenic view of my back garden through 
the big glass panels.

 Rain drops are showering on the clear glass top of my patio table. It is 
amazing. You can watch for hours to enjoy. So beautiful, so peaceful. 
I wish if I could also listen to the music of the rain drops.

 Rain just stopped. I see the pearls all around the glass top of my patio 
table. Trees looking beautiful, decorated with pearls. Sunshine adding up 
the beauty, giving glitter to these pearls. I told you there is always 
something around to give you happiness.

 Black squirrel is back in the Gym, on the wooden fence of my Back 
Garden. He looks serious to watch over his weight and body, started 
coming back every day, may be he is in some relationship nowadays.

 I am not working on Tuesdays. I have other plans to get busy. I have to 
make couple of calls, one to my friend, she lives in Markham. We used 
to be together in our Uni days. More than half a century back. To keep 
our connection alive, we use to talk once a week. 

 Weather looks great so right now I am getting ready to go for my walk.
Calls can wait. I will do that later. I am also planning to bake chicken 
patties to put on the dinner table for my family. I can do that, I have 
whole day beside me.
Just got your comments. I can not figure out, how come you people find my
Blog sort of sad. It is not, believe me. Dear Retirees please try to understand.
I went to get groceries at night with my Son.

 I want to say that beside my walk in day time, I am fine, going for such 
activities too. I enjoy to get out. Please don't cancel any of your activities.
We have to enjoy every bit of it.

 Life is gift from God. We have to value every moment of our life.

 Kris Dear Father is having so many dishes in his breakfast. He is fine.
He has to sleep in his room. Why is he in TV room all the time. I am worried
about Hannah. Niklas has to enjoy his game time. 20 minutes are nothing.
Kids play all the times.

    I have posted the blog in Smile Corner. Today being Friday, there are lot of customers here. I have bought extra biscuits as it has become a tradition in our small town that locals come here and read blog before going back to their homes or pub. They drink smoothies because I dont serve drinks as Smile didnt allow it

    Dear Advisor,

    The retirees went for our long walk today. As usual, it was a long walk just under 10 mins with a few breaks in between. Our walk, though very long for us is nothing compared to the ones that you take. After that we had our lollipop

    The retirees are very appreciative of your blog today. We are humbled that you considered us worthy of your advice and guidance. The retirees also want to express our most sincere apology as we could not completely comprehend your blog from yesterday and misunderstood the message. Truth be told that your blogs are quite complicated and though you use folksy language, it does require us multiple readings sometimes with the help of retired experts. This is a testament to your expertise and depth of knowledge. As for your advice, we will review it in detail. We have called a special meeting and invited retired behavioral consultants to determine what we got wrong.

    Once again, please forgive us for our ineptness

    thank you
    recent retiree

    Dear Author,

    We read your blog at the SRC today. It was a very noisy reading event. Though there was a pin drop silence, during the reading of the blog, as normal but after the reading the faculty of anesthesiology professors said that Smile is in her late 30s or early 40s. The Smile Army told them that you in your 70s but they said that it is not possible as not even a 50 year old will choose to go for a walk in these brutal arctic temperatures. The Smile Army tool it as a challenge to your blogs and started yelling slogans. Prof George needed some time to calm them down and explain to the idiots that they are not challenging you, they are simply saying that these blogs are not easy. The Dean was not here today as he and the Chancellor had to go to some meeting at an international conference.

    thank you
    Literature Fellow

  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
