Tenants are back in Twin Towers

-



 Beautiful morning. Weather is great. It is a nice day. I can't see any car on my driveway. My grandson, the middle one, Master Golden takes the Black Lexus, to his work. My son has taken the white SUV to his Jury Duty. It is 9.35, I am outside, on front of my house, walking around, waiting for my friend's Red car.

My front garden is looking great. Red wooden bench on the left, shining under the sun. Two baskets full of red and white flowers, hanging on tree, in the center, is giving color to my garden. These baskets are new additions, my son got last week, from the Costco Garden centre.

The "Twin Towers", I mean the two tall trees looking great, full of green, full of life, on the front yard of my next door neighbor. I can hear birds, having chit chat, calling each other from their apartments. I think, lots of tenants are back in Twin Towers.

I am working part time today, going to play Darts from 10 to 12, will be back around 12.20. My friend will be coming to pick me up, any time soon. I got small cookie box for my club. We use to pitch in for snacks. Bring things, whatever we can. Our club manages tea / coffee, milk sugar, cups and other such things. We take a break between games, to enjoy our tea time. 

It is nice to enjoy, to have good time, to make our day. Our club now started all regular activities, which were on hold due to Covid. On Thursday,  June 16th, we will be having our pot luck, contributing five dollars each, to order from outside, whatever our club decides. 

It is 12.40, I am back, busy in my kitchen, making banana strawberry smoothie for myself. My son is not home, he will miss that. I am enjoying my drink at my Deck, sitting on one of the new Red garden chairs, the knitted ones, my son got four of these from Home Depot.

It is beautiful scenic view. Dark Red, Rose Pink and Purple Hydrangea, are smiling in my flower bed, on the back. Red and white, seasonal flowers, in the front row, looking beautiful, adding up the beauty, like cherry on top, to my garden. Grass is green. Couple of birds, I think saying Hi to me, from the tree top, in front. So nice of them. Beautiful moments, to cherish, to make my day. Amazing. Thank You God for making my days brighter. Love You.

    I have posted the blog in Smile Corner. Customers are enjoying since you told everyone to enjoy. Some customers are asking me to install a dart board but I told them that I have to get permission from you.

    Dear Advisor,

    We appreciate your blog today. There was a lot of discussion about the reading of the blog but we asked the retired gardener to lead the reading. Reading of the blog is the highest honour for a retiree. As the reading takes place, it always draw a crowd and others in the cafe also listen to the reading.

    After the reading we went through sub-committee business. The committee for Joint Family living are asking for your advice. The retirees are having problems with their kids. The kids dont take spend time with us but spend time with their kids and their spouses. Can you please help

    The subcommittee for family with teenagers is also asking for advice. They have heard complaints from families that the teenagers are staying out late. They dont contribute to any household work. They dont help with groceries. They even have dinners in their rooms. Some are thinking of kicking them out.

    The retired chef also provided the update. He said that your description of cooking has given a new dimension to this art. The retired chef has been sending copies of your blog to the 5 star properties because its a big morale booster to the chefs.

    Your Indian compatriots gave a hard time to the temple people today. The temple people were celebrating the win of their country’s cricket team but the Indians said that the country is going bankrupt, worry about that first. They also pointed out that IPL is the biggest league in the world. The temple people tried to argue back but the retired priest said that they should not argue as you dont like arguments during the reading. Before leaving, they bought 4 coffees. As usual, each of them buy large coffee and ask for 2 extra cups. They then share this coffee between themselves. The cafe manager does not like that but he does not say anything because they are your guests.

    thank you
    recent retiree

    Dear Author,

    There was an incident during the blog reading today. Smile Army was upset at your son that he is not taking you to your regular activities and instead going to the Jury duty. Prof George and Dean tried to explain to them that Jury duty is mandatory and though your son is generally inconsiderate, in this case, there is not much he can do. Some of the students were impressed that he is selected for Jury duty, but the Dean of the faculty of Law said that the selection is purely random and even a fool can be selected, One of the senior Law professor joined the conversation and said that actually only fools and retired people serve on the jury, the smart people find a way to get out, as it is a boring process. Everyone laughed.

    The students are continuing to have a very challenging time with our parents. In some cases, they tell us stories about how they lived their lives, in other cases, they give examples of others. We hate that. Do they want us to compare them to other people their age? Then they will know. They dont realize that they are making us hate our siblings because of these stupid comparisons. Can you tell them to stop doing that! It is very annoying.

    Thank you
    Literature Fellow

    We are continuing to review your blogs from last week to determine how nature and positivity can be an ingredient for business success. The VP of HR has set up a committee of 3 experts to review these blogs to determine who we can weave some of the ideas into corporate culture.

    thank you

    You have been enthralling your readers by sculpting bouquets of your blogs. Yet though we appreciate the literary brilliance that you amply display, your zeal and passion to enhance global citizenry is not lost on us. With a few carefully chosen words, spoken eloquently from your pen, you painted a vibrant picture of your resplendent garden. We, like your other populace of readership, are also in awe and bewilderment with your mastery of words and your positive perspectives.

    Thank you for making our days brighter

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...

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 ...

Have a taste of Nature

      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...
