DIY Potting Bench Plans for Your Garden That Are Both Pretty and ...













Dear Readers, Hanna still in ICU
She is alone.
Her husband, Kris is with his Father
giving him fresh hot food 

Niklas, her son, also home 
Father wants two people

Kris told Hannah, 
"Call me when to pick you up"
He didn't get any call so skipped 
hospital visit

How strange
I can not believe that
I am praying for Hannah
We can only do that

I am worried about my friend, 
 Smile Addict
Praying for him too



Thursday mixed sunny cloudy cold morning with 5 C, rain on the way.
Today it is a different morning. Yesterday my eldest grandson hurt his 
ankle. He was playing basketball outside at our front yard.

We called ambulance, it was 7 pm. He was back at around midnight with,
having a cast on his left leg. It was 2 in the morning till things settled down,
I mean with all the sleeping arrangements for everyone and specially for him.

In unusual circumstances, things are not as per routine. Everyone has 
to make adjustments, to cope with the situation, to share the pressure. 
That's the beauty of family life, to stand for each other. 

In situations like this, everyone becomes panicky. It is human nature.
We have to control ourselves, otherwise things get drastic. Everyone 
already under pressure, can not take any more.

Try to stay calm and keep your distance, not have to talk unnecessary. 
Silence is virtue beside patience and listening. Specially, we seniors have 
to keep that in mind. We don't have to interfere with, whatever is 
going on around.

My sleep was also disturbed. I could not sleep till after four in the morning. 
I was walking around in my room and was on my computer. No more 
going downstairs as my son was sleeping downstairs. It is a makeshift 
arrangement. I think will be for six to eight weeks at least. 

Dear Retirees, I am worried about you my friends. Some of you must 
be living alone. Some in Retirement Home. Others staying with family.
Living alone is not easy but living with family has it's own challenges.
Not for, we seniors but for everyone there.

Have patience and keep distance to let everyone to enjoy his / her own 
privacy. Everyone needs some time alone. Moments to be with his own self. 
Not to share with others. We have to respect that. 

Dear Reader, who was doing 2 Jobs before. I don't know what to write for 
you. I mean who can cough loud, before everyone, especially when his Supervisor is there. Think about that. No one does that. We have to behave.

  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
