I Love my maroon umbrella

June 27th 2023

Raining, since early morning. Nowadays we are getting rain every day. It is 10.15, I have to check my table calendar. I think my hair wash is due. At our age, we go on losing our hair, so after shower, you can imagine. I take couple of days break for my hair wash. Anyway, today I have to do that. I will color my hair too. 

I love my table calendar. It reminds me for things to do. I jot down my routine things there. It is easy. No pressure to remember. Specially for, when to change bed sheets and to do my hair wash. 

It is 12.30, still raining. I will make some calls. My walk is now on hold. My younger brother lives in Whitby, with his elder daughter. He is leaving today for Chicago, to be with his younger daughter. His wife is also going with him. I will call them to wish for a safe trip and to enjoy their time over there.

We have to make calls / visits, to share people's special moments. They must be happy to see their other daughter. Sharing adds up the intensity of happiness, and while, people going through their difficult moments. Calls will be like blessings, give them relief. 

It will distract them from the grief for a while. They will be a bit relieved, to know, to have a feel, that there is someone for them. They are not alone. 

It is 2.30. rain just stopped. Forecast is for rain all day. I am getting ready. I think, it is the right time, don't want to miss my walk. I have my maroon umbrella with me. I got it for four dollars, years ago from Dollarama. 

I am all set, walking by the Whites Road. Rain drops are glittering like pearls on the grass, at the side of walkway. Beautiful Daisy, Small yellow flowers and star shaped Violet flowers, all look happy, all smiling. 

I see, small brown Rabbit sitting under the bush, enjoying his time. I think he is the same one, who comes to visit my back garden. Birds, on tree tops, are busy in chatting. What a scenic view, amazing. 

It is 2.45, I am at Tim Hortons. I will have small Fries today, will change my menu, to make my day. Wendy's is in the same premises. I will get it from there. Sometimes, change is good, gives you more joy, more happiness. I am enjoying my Fries. Life is all good.

  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
