I am a lucky Mom

Beautiful bright sunny morning. Sun is shining up and above in full bloom. It is 8.15, 2 C right now, will be slightly better, still be in single digit all day long. Winter is just around the corner. How long can we skip that. November already started. My son and my daughter in law, are away on a two weeks holiday trip. They are enjoying in Egypt and Turkey. My grandkids are gone to work and Uni. It is an empty nest for now. 

It is 9.30, I am done with my five minutes exercises, what my therapist told me to do. Pain in my right leg, is still the same. I am doing my homework everyday, anyway. Doing exercise, is always good. No harm in that. I am done with my breakfast too, walking on my deck. It is cold, I will not be staying long, just for couple of minutes to enjoy view of my back garden. Grass is looking great, green, loaded with Gold leaves.

Not many flowers left. Red Canadian Rose is also gone, to come back next year. Couple of Red seasonal flowers are there, giving color to my garden. Trees look, a bit shaky. I think scared of the time ahead. I can't see any of the Pinkish purple Lilac flowers, in white planters, by the side of my deck. The two Brick Red planters are also look deserted. Not in good shape like couple of weeks back.

Things change, so is our life. Change, I think, is beauty. There is always something new, something different, to look around, to enjoy our time. Go with the flow. Try to make adjustments with whatever is around. 

It is 10.15, I am in my room, checking my table calendar. There is so much to do on my list. Have to wash and change my bedsheets and towels. Some clothes are also here to wash. I have to do two loads of laundry. I wash bedsheets and clothes separately. I have to color my hair too. It will be a busy day for me.

My daughter, the middle one is calling me from Grimsby. Her day is done, she is going home from school. She talks to me on her way to home. She will be busy while at home, busy with matters of her own family things. My youngest daughter does the same. Calls me on the way from work to home. We don't talk for long, just a small chit chat, to connect. We parents have to admire and appreciate, whatever our kids can do to make our day. We have to feel lucky and be thankful to them. 


Dear Readers hope you people, all doing well, enjoying your time. I haven't got any of your comments for months. Love you always. Have patience. Respect everyone's emotions and privacy. Thanks

  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
