I am at work today

Wednesday -- Beautiful sunny morning. Today I have to go to work. Have to go to play Darts. I call it like my work day. This way, doesn't look that I am retired. I think, there is no harm to trick your own self sometimes.

We have to find ways to keep our mood elevated. It helps to focus on positive thoughts. This was a long day for me. I was out of bed after seven in morning. Didn't skip my five minutes stretch exercises. 

Switched my computer on, to browse my messages, Headline News, Today's Weather and other such items. Had my oatmeal porridge and stir fried egg. Having morning tea in my room and sorting, what to wear.

It is 8.30, I am all set, ready to go. My Darts are in my small blue bag. The one, my son gave me last year. My mask, my water bottle, everything is with me. I am wearing perfume of Jasmine fragrance. This is gift, I got last year while, I was in Grimsby, visiting my daughter the middle one. Her friend gave it to me. 

I am wearing black and white silk top, my niece gave me, while I was in London. My blue black pants, is also gift. This, My youngest daughter got me from Marks Spencer. This all reminds me of my trip to England.

Things now changed because of Covid. Trips are on hold. When we are getting old, people start showering gifts. They feel, not much time left for us. I think every stage of our life, is unique, with it's own beauty. Same is old age. We start getting lots of gifts.

It is 8.45, I am at the library, signing in, filling Form, for Covid details. I haven't touched my Darts for the last six months. I don't know, how things will go. But who cares, we all are here to enjoy our time. Not have to compete with professionals.  

We have to wear Masks all the time and keep distancing. Everyone has to follow the rules. Still not many there. We have to register on first come first basis, to keep our numbers limited. 

Anyway, good to see whatever is there. We have to enjoy our moment in hand with what is available. I am happy to see my friends. We Humans are social animals, no doubt. Always feel good to be with people around.

It is 12.30, I am back, busy in my kitchen, making banana shake for my son and for my own self. Making peanut butter sandwiches and hot chocolate milk for my youngest grandson, the Slurpee Boy. My youngest daughter is calling me from Reading. I have to finish my kitchen work, have to go to my room, to be with my computer, to talk to my daughters.

It is 2.30, making chicken with rice for the middle one, the Master Golden. Veggie burger for my son. Some left over stir fried zucchini is in the fridge. I will make burger with that. I toasted the buns, using plain yogurt as dressing,  sprinkled salt and pepper. The Veggies, sliced Yellow Bell pepper, sliced tomatoes and salad, all will go in between. The burger will taste good and healthy too with all that. 

Try to put smile on the faces around, you will never be out of happiness. What goes around, comes back to you. Try to live in day tight compartment. Get busy with the things, you like to do. Leave no space for negative thoughts, to enter, to spoil your moments.

    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...

Nature is great

     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...
