Our targets, our milestones

It is Sunday bright beautiful sunny morning with 13 C. Last night, it was not a good sleep for me. I know this is not a big deal at my age. Things start getting upside down at this age. My travel time is getting  closer too, it adds up, like cherry on top. It is OK, no pain, no gain. Nothing is total plus, my Dear. I am going to see my daughters, I have to pay the price. I am fine with that. I have my list of things to pack.  I already sorted my closet and clothes, are in my suitcase. I have to plan  to go to my doctor for my medicines. I will do that. I think I am on track.  I know I have to deal with some sleepless nights. It happens. Today, I was out of my bed at six in the morning. Too early for breakfast. I switched on my computer. I do that first thing in the morning. My  daughters  are five hours ahead of my time in Toronto. I let them know that I am awake. Usually they call, if they don't,  I understand that they must be busy with their own

It is Tuesday beautiful morning with 11 C. It is windy but it is sunny so it  is fine. I don't work on Tuesdays. Today I make calls and go for my walk. Today I am thinking to start sorting things for my trip to England. It is already 21st of May and I am leaving on 15th of June. I will start dumping my clothes from the closet, in my suitcase. It will be the first step  to start my packing. I will keep on short listing my clothes.   I know I have to take one suitcase of 20 or 23 kg. I will find out. Final  packing will be, day before my departure. Today I will dump everything out of my closet, on my bed. It will be easy to sort. My usual routine will be the same. I mean my calls and my walk. I wont feel good to disturb my routine schedule.  After my breakfast, I was  on my  computer to go through my Facebook messages. One of my daughters, the middle one called. She lives in Grimsby.  She is  five hours ahead, her day is nearly done. She was going to

It is Thursday bright sunny windy morning with 10 C. I don't work on  Thursdays. Today my club having lunch at Manderine, Chinese Restaurant. We do it every year on the third Thursday of any month. It was all set, one  of  my friend had to pick me up.  Another of my friend also called but I didn't go. Sometimes we have to listen to our hearts. If your heart is not into it, you wont enjoy. It is better to skip. So today is like my any other Thursdays. Have to make calls and to go for my walk. Last month, I booked my flight to England. I am leaving on 15th of June,  will  be gone for couple of weeks, be back by the end of August. Every year,  I think like  this is my last trip, no more now. Travel is not easy for we  seniors.  I make list for the things, I have to take with me. I take Calcium and  Vitamin D,  for  my long time osteoporosis. Metamucil and Senokot, to regulate my  digestion,  that's it. I don't have to take any other medicine.

Thanks Everyone  for celebrating my birthday I don't deserve all that It is Thursday cloudy windy morning with 9 C, gusts around 60 km. I don't work on Thursdays. I will make couple of calls and go for  my walk.  We have to plan our day to get busy, to keep away  from thinking  negative, to push ourselves to lead a happy life,  so simple.  In the morning after breakfast, I was in the kitchen. Kitchen is one of the favorite spots in my house, besides my bed room and TV lounge.  My Bed  room is not only a place to sleep for me. It is like a  working place, just like  my office. My writing table with my computer, is at the right corner, beside the big  window in my bed room. My sewing machine table is at the other side. My closets are also like my work place. I keep on sorting  and organize  things, so often. I think to keep myself busy and to live in day tight  compartment. We have to keep our schedule, no matter we are working or retired.  It gi

May the 2nd My Birthday

It is Thursday cold morning with 3 C. It was raining and windy yesterday  so it is much better now. I don't work on Thursdays. I have to make some  calls  and this is also a day for my walk to Tim Horton. This is May the 2nd, my Birthday today. I am going to be one year older. I am already old enough. One more year down the drain but who cares. What is there, is there, no choice, take it or leave it.  I don't know how long  I be able  to go  for my walks.  I think we have to  celebrate the moments in hand. Who knows, what will be  the next. Future,  we don't know.  I called one of my childhood friend, she lives in London,  England.  I also  got  message from my 5th Grade friend, she  is in Sydney. Relationships are like  treasures. We have to maintain and flourish  with  love and  patience. We have to focus on the  present  moments in hand.  I believe that is the  deciding factor, the driving force, which makes me to do  things,  to move
