Keeping My Fingers Crossed

-

 


It is 9.30 morning. My deck is wet. I think it was raining. Beautiful view in my    back garden. Dahlia, Roses, everyone looking great after having morning shower. Red, Purple and Yellow flowers are smiling, enjoying, shaking their bodies, in thrill and excitement, also giving me a nod to come, to join, to enjoy together. Sun smiling too, shining up and above in full bloom. 

I skip, taking some time out. My body is not ready to go to the garden to have a chit chat with them. Needs some time to rewind. Sometimes we have to listen to our body. Don't have to push hard. My back not in good shape. My travel date getting closer. My seat is confirmed. Travel is booked. My son is worried about me. I keep my finger crossed, leaving everything to God. He is the Best Planner. Knows what is the best for me. 

Yesterday, I sorted things, what to pack. Tomorrow is my doctor's appointment, to get some prescription medicines for my travel. I take with me for, just in case. Never had to use it, but you never know. Things change with age. Our body not the same. We have to be ready for anything, to cope.

It is 11.30, my daughters from England calling me. They are excited, making plans to enjoy time together with me. We have to value each moment. Never know, what will be the next. Past is done. We can not turn the page. Future we don't know. Present moment is everything we have. Things change so quickly. Time flies. 

My daughter in law is in Houston, she will be back the day I will fly to England. I made Shrimp Noodles for kids, last night for dinner. My grandson the middle one, was there to help me out. Day before I baked chicken with potatoes. It is such an experience to make things for them and to see their smiley faces. I am enjoying my moments. Feel lucky to see them around. Able to do things, to spread happiness. Thank You God for keeping me mobile. Love You.


Dear Readers Hope everyone is having good time.
I am fine. Don't worry about me. Just relax and enjoy.

  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
