Booked My Flight to Edmonton

January 10th 2023

It is a mixed cloudy sunny morning, 2 C below zero. Not so cold. We take it like good weather, here in Toronto. No rain, no snow. Looks like calm quiet atmosphere. Today is Garbage pick up day, in our neighborhood. All Blue Green and Grey bins, are lined up on driveways, outside. Grey one is for garbage, which is to be picked up, on alternate weeks, while other bins, picked up every Tuesday. Blue ones, are for paper and glass. Green bin is for Kitchen stuff. 

I was working yesterday, usually I don't go to work, to play Darts on Mondays. My daughter in law has to go to work in person, on Mondays and Tuesdays, so we don't have car at home. It doesn't look nice to call my friend, for ride so I skip on Mondays. She knows about the car issue, she messaged me to have a ride. So nice of her.

Yesterday I booked my flight for Edmonton. It is by the end of next month. My back is much better, thanks to my heating pad. Now my right leg is giving me hard time. At our age, when we get up in the morning, we find something new, to tackle. Any of our body parts, starts complaining, in it's own way. We have to face and try to deal with that. This is life. Old age is one of the stage of our life. We have to mange. Take it like any other stage of life. Nothing to complain about.

My eldest daughter is to be married on 25th of February. I am happy for her. She has two sons. Eldest one, is in States, done with her medical studies, last year. Her younger one, is in third year Uni. It is not easy to manage things alone. She was doing that for years. Things now, are going to be changed. Hope she will be blessed with all the happiness in her life, in years to come. Ameen.

I have to be there to share her special moments. Edmonton is four and half hour  away, still flights take whole day. Have to be at the airport before time. Home to home takes much longer. Weather will also be tough over there, in February. Might be 40 C below zero. Let's see. Nothing is total plus. She will be happy to see me. I will be happy too. That is the big plus. My son is also going with me, that is a plus too. Nothing to complain. I am happy.

    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...
