My Two Flower Baskets

-

 



It is 8.30 in the morning. Weather is great after couple of cloudy cold days. I am walking around on my deck. My garden looking beautiful with lush green grass. The newly planted flower Bed is looking beautiful. Red rose on the left, Yellow and Pink, in the center and in between, variety of flowers are there to fill the space. Everything looking great on the Brick Red color of freshly spread  Mulch. Our new silver color BBQ is shining on the Deck. Such a beautiful atmosphere to behold, to start my day.

Last night my sleep was better, after couple of disturbed nights. Things start happening at our age. We have to take it, whatever is there and try to make adjustments with the things around. Have to keep in mind that everyone must be sleeping, so not to disturb anyone in our household. Start reading anything of your interest. Watch your favorite show or anything you like to watch on your computer / tablet. I switch my computer on, to pass my time. It works for me.

I am in my room. It is 9.45, my computer is on, my window blinds are drawn up. Through my window, I am enjoying the view of my front garden. We got two flower baskets from Dollarama, filled it up, with potted flowers, to hang on the tree in our front garden. Smiling white and yellow Daffodils, in my garden baskets, now adding up the beauty of my garden. Red wooden bench is shining under the sun, on the left, near Magnolia tree, giving color to my garden. 

Every season is unique, displaying it's own beauty. Summer is revival of life. Trees are loaded with greenery. Flowers smiling on gardens. People are outdoors. BBQs are back to life. Birds are in Flocks. Butterflies whispering to the flowers of their choice. What an atmosphere to cherish these beautiful moments. Life is good. No complaints.

I usually go to lake at Noon, as my son takes a break at that time. I adjust my "Things to do", around that, to go with him, to change my scenery. Today my youngest grandson, the Slurpee Boy has to go at 3 pm, for his eye check up. I will go with him, to walk around, to top up my steps. 

We have to take, whatever is available and have to make adjustments around that. Don't expect from others to adjust with our time table. We only can change our own selves. To change others will be too complicated. Too much pressure. Not worth it. Don't go for that.

  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
