Gold Stolen from my Back Garden

-

 


Beautiful day, will be rain in the afternoon. For now it is a bright sunny morning. I have to go to work to play Darts after 9.30. It is 8.15, I have enough time to walk around on my deck, to enjoy the view of my back garden. Sitting on one of the red knitted garden chairs, I am enjoying my drink, honey in hot water. It is a changed scenery here. Grass is not lush green. I see some yellowish patches in between. Trees are not fully loaded with leaves on. I think, they soon will be changed into bare skeletons. 

Lots of Gold is gone. I see Bronze scattered in my garden. I think someone stolen the Gold away and replaced it with Bronze. My friend, the Black Squirrel is walking around, looks like, looking for something, he lost. No flowers in the flowerbed at the back. Couple of bright Red seasonal flowers are smiling in flower baskets by the side, on the left. Two white Planters and the Brick Red planters, all giving a deserted look. No flowers there.

It is nearly mid of November. It is time for a change. Change of weather, change of scenery and time to change your schedule too, to coordinate with the changed circumstances. Time to get busy with indoor activities and for birds to fly to South of the Border.

My son and my daughter in law, are back from their two week holidays. I feel relaxed. End of my pressure time to mange household matters. Lunch to kids for their work and Uni. and make dinner in evenings. Have to take some time off. I love to cook and enjoy my kitchen time, still to take full responsibility, is not for us, at our age. It is enough to handle our own things. 

Every stage of our life needs it's own adjustments, to tackle with. We have to be careful. Don't have to overdo at our age. Not a good idea to be a burden for our kids, to handle our things after we start having health issues. Have to mange things keeping track of health and safety matters. Anyway, now it is full house.

  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
