Grey Squirrel Enjoying in My Garden

-

 


It is a bright beautiful sunny morning. Grey squirrel is enjoying her morning walk in my back garden. Yes it is a garden for now. No more snow. Couple of days back there was lots of snow all around. Now grass is green. This is the beauty of Toronto. Years back, I was living in Ottawa, in 1994, my son was working in "Nortel". I still remember, snow floating in lake, even in the month of May. Here in Toronto, we see greenery so often even in winter days. 

It is 10.15, I am done with my breakfast, enjoyed my oatmeal porridge, stir fried egg and my morning cup of tea. I am now sitting in my room. My window blinds are drawn up. I can see sun shining, in full bloom, making our day brighter. It looks like a summer though it is very cold, 18 C below zero, feels like 24 below. 

My computer is switched on to connect with my loved ones. My daughter calling me from Kent. She is done with her work, going back to home. She is living in different time zone. It is already afternoon over there. Toronto is five hours behind the time in England.

Nowadays, my son is very busy with his work, so my lake trips are on hold. Last night, my grandson, the middle one, Master Golden was going for groceries. I went with him, to help him out. Lots of groceries, needed two people. We left at 6 pm, were back at 7.30. Day before my son had doctor's appointment, I went with him to walk around. I keep on trying to avail other options, to get out.

Nothing is end of the world.  We have to make adjustments to make our day. Yesterday was a busy day for me. I had to color my hair, had to change and wash my bedsheets and towels. Kitchen is always one of my favorite spot, to play around to make dishes of my choice for my loved ones. This is one of my usual activity to enjoy my time. So no worries. I am doing fine.

We have to try to live in day tight compartment. It helps to stay away from thinking negatives. Helps to be on the right track. The track of positivity. This is a simple recipe to live a happy life.

  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
