I miss my walks and Darts

-

 


Beautiful day, sunny morning, still things are not the same for me. I have to miss my walks and my office. It is Friday, the day to go to work to play Darts. I never use to miss that, not today.

I am home. Had an accident on 8th of Nov, while coming back from library after Darts. My youngest grandson was driving me home. He use to do that often. We were at Whites Road, just about five minutes away from home and a white van coming from the gas station, banged. 

Van flipped, our black Lexus got trashed. Air bags popped up. Police cars, ambulance, people were all around. My grandson somehow, was able to open his door. People came to him, he told them," I am fine, help my grandma. Go that side". I am so proud of him. Love him so much. I was able to get out somehow.

Paramedics were insisting to take me to hospital. I don't like sitting in ambulance. My grandson told them that he will take me to hospital, afterwards. It took couple of hours with police investigations. I was feeling bad for my grandson. He was not dressed up for cold, he just came to pick me up.

It was really cold, he must be shivering. My son and my daughter in law, are on holidays, not home. My eldest grandson  is on his business trip. My middle grandson was off from his Uni. He was home, came right away to help out his brother, to sort things with police officials. My chest was hurt badly. I was in real pain, sitting in one of the police cars, to take refuge from cold.

Accident was around 12.15, we were home around 3 pm. My grandson took me to hospital. It was all day with waiting time, tests and x-rays. I was back after 9.30 pm, started my day at 9.30, in the morning. It was very long day. Good News, that I had a clean slate, no fractures, no broken ribs. Lucky me.

Doctor advised me to have Tylenol, pain ointment, heating pad and to slow down. I miss my walks, my Darts, still feel lucky. God is Great. Thank You, for looking after me, for keeping me mobile. Thanks for Your Blessings. I don't deserve all that.

  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
