From England back to Toronto

-

 

I am in Reading at my youngest daughter's place. Time flies. Today is my last day in England. My flight is tomorrow afternoon. End of my three weeks trip. 

My trip was great, busy with full of enjoyment. I divided my trip into three of my daughter's places. One week each, in Grimsby, Kent and in Reading. On my last day at Kent, we had sort of mega gathering. 

All of my daughters with husbands and all of my grandkids came to Kent to see me. We had lunch together. They gave me gifts too. I had great time with them. Moments to cherish, sort of keepsake for my memory box.

My daughters, the Grimbsy and Kent ones, came to Reading with me and my son. My daughter, the youngest one was driving them to her home. They stayed for overnight.

It was great all three of my daughters and my son, having time together, talking, sharing their childhood memories. I was happy to see my kids so connected. Next day, we went to Croydon City Centre, had lunch.

My daughter, the middle one, has her special daughter. She lives in 'Home'. We took her to eat out, from there, everyone dispersed. Me and my son and my youngest daughter, were back to Reading. 

I missed my eldest daughter. She is in Edmonton. She will be coming with her husband next month to see me in Toronto.

Last night my daughter's sister in law invited me to have dinner at her place. My trip will be over. I will do packing tonight. Leaving London tomorrow afternoon. Need prayers for my journey back to Canada.

  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
