Dear Friends
Have a great day


It is Friday beautiful sunny morning with 4 C. Perfect for my walk.
I will be needing warm winter coat, my maroon sweater and the woolen 
stole. I will be fine.

 Last night I didn't have good sleep. It happens. This is my age. Things
start getting triggered, one after another. I was awake late till around three
in the morning. I was lying down, till everyone gone to their room to sleep.

 We don't have to ruin other people's sleep just because of our own self.
After 1.30, I went downstairs, watched TV for some time. There was 
nothing good to watch. 

 I was back in my room with my computer. Played couple of Scrabble and 
Card games. After that I watched some good shows on my computer 
to distract myself from anxiety. I went to bed around three. Life is like 
Domino, one thing gets out of order, everything starts scrambling.

 Because of my sleep, I was late in the morning. Was not awake till 
9 am after. At our age, things happen, not a big deal. We have to have 
patience and switch our plans accordingly. Old age is just any other 
stage of cycle of life. Have patience, stay calm and face with grace.

 Now first thing, I have to check my daughters Facebook messages. 
I do that every morning to know, how things are at their end. They 
call me too, to connect, as soon as, I write down "I am awake". 

 Anyway, It is 10.30, I am done with my morning exercise, my breakfast,
enjoying my tea, sitting in the TV lounge, watching  "Andy Griffith"
show. It is 11 am, I am in my room, busy with my computer. 

 I am not getting comments from my Readers Family. There is some Glitch,
I think. I am worried about my friends, Hannah and Niklas. I don't know 
how are things for them. I know Father, very selfish and Kris is helpless.

 It is 12.45, I am at Petticoat Creek, very windy, gusts, 70 km. At some point, 
it was difficult for me, to have balance. Lake looking great, beautiful. Water 
glittering under the sun. Not many ducks here. not many people, just couple 
of, walking with their dogs. Couple of kids riding their bikes.

 On the overhead bridge, "Via train", is passing by, it connects provinces 
and also goes to States. I can also see the other one, "Go train", which is 
inter city. 

I always get fascinated by trains. This is my childhood passion. I am 
enjoying everything.The scenic view, the atmosphere around, all worth 
to behold, to enjoy.

 It is 1.45, I am home. Time to be busy with my kitchen, to make banana 
shakes for my son and for myself. Have to make lunch for my youngest 
grandson, the Slurpee Boy. 

 I have to make couple of calls too. I will call my youngest sister. She lives
in Retirement Home. I will call my younger brother. I call him every day.
It is always good to be connected with your loved ones.

    I dont think my mother in law will get sick because she does not go outside anyways. If she gets sick, then she cant go for the blood test because there is no way she can skip breakfast. She eats all the time.

    Happy Reader

Bird are busy picknicking

    Beautiful morning sunny and bright. No more rain. We had already more than enough of it. Grass and flowers, don't need any watering. It is 26 C, hot day.   This is weekend, I have to do my hair color. My friend invited me for afternoon tea. I will go there. It is always good to be with friends and family. We have to accept invitations, to make our day. I think, calls are sort of blessings. Signals from God for us to gather happiness. Life is nearly the same for everyone. It is all up to us, how we take it.  Try to give color to the moments in hand. Sitting idle, doing nothing, won't bring happiness. Try to be active, do something, anything you like to do. Go for walk, to look the scenery around.  Some people like outdoors, some not. They like to be indoors. Find the spot of your choice in your garden / balcony, get book / magazine of your interest, to be happy. Bird watching is beautiful. You feel great, watching them doing things, you get invo...

     October 29th 2024 It's a different scenario today. Cloudy morning hazy sky. Sun is hiding under his gray blanket. It is Tuesday so I don't have to go to work. No Darts today at the library. It is a day off for me. I have to make other plans to make my day. Day offs are like clean slates. We have to write our schedule to fill out the columns of the day. When we have to go to work or school, our timings are all set.  We don't have to worry about how to pass our time. We have just a couple of hours left to sort out after coming back from our workplace or school. Weekends and day offs are tricky. We need some homework to fill out our day slots. Try to make it like a combo, a mixed plate to have a taste of everything. Day offs are like blank sheets. We can write, paint, whatever we want to do, to fill out. Every day is like a container with twenty four hours of consignment. It's delivered every morning.  We have to open it and use to finish it up. It all has to ...

      October 22nd 2024 Great morning 18C. It is like summer for Canadians. Couple of more days to enjoy the outdoors.  Beautiful leaves of all colors are everywhere giving a scenic look to the atmosphere to behold and to cherish these moments. Nature is amazing. There is always something for we Humans to make our day. Take some time off from your day today to look around. You will find beauty everywhere. It doesn't matter in which part of the world you live. Don't have to plan for long trips. It is all at your doorsteps. Keep your eyes open and take a break to smell the nature around. You will get the flavor and also inner peace deep down. It will be a rare happiness all on its own. You don't have to make any payments, any investments for that. Just a time alone slot and all the transactions will be done. It works like meditation. It's 11.45, I am at Tim Hortons enjoying my small tea, not coffee today. We have to change our menu too. It works something like a change...
