With love from Canada

It's the 24th of August 2025. Today is the first morning for me in Canada after six weeks. Home sweet home. We always miss that. 

Sometimes we don't, much. Travel nowadays is so common. It is a small world now. Things have now changed from that in our time.

Travel is very common, still families are far apart. Not able to make plans to see their loved ones. Kids like to travel to their favorite places with company of their choice. Their parents are busy with work and family. No time to plan to see their parents.

We, parents, are at the later stages of our life. For us it's tough to go to visit them. We still try our best to connect with our kids and grand kids. Don't know for how long we are able to make that. 

Every trip looks like that, this is the last one. May God keep us mobile to give us strength to make it for some more times.

My trip to England is like a dream. With our loved ones every place looks wonderful. Every day with moments to cherish. My daughters made my days memorable. Taking time off from their busy schedule. I feel like a lucky mom.

My grand kids were also there for me whenever they were able to make it. It was great with their work. I feel happy and highly appreciate them for not being sick of their grandma. 

We at our age are at different wavelengths. I think with love, the generation gap doesn’t matter anymore. I am so thankful to them.

My trip to London never completes without walking by Tames. Taking a tour of Trafalgar, Big Ben, Charing Cross, Hyde Park and Oxford Street. I enjoyed sitting on the upper deck of the public bus with my daughters.

A couple of my grand kids were able to make it for me. Thanks to them for making my day brighter and making my moments memorable to cherish.

Today is my first day in Pickering, Canada. It's 8.30 in the morning. I am done with my breakfast getting ready to go to have my morning coffee at Tim Hortons. Tim Hortons, I take as my second home.

Small coffee with three parts of hot water, three creams and one sugar. We have to be careful what we take, what we eat, especially at our age. I can't enjoy strong coffee. Do whatever you like to make your day. Life will be good.

It's a Beautiful Day

    It's Tuesday, I have my day off. I don't work on Tuesdays. Monday was a close holiday because of Victoria day.  She helped Canada to make the Charter of Democracy. We remember that and celebrate. Everything was closed and only eateries were open. I enjoyed my time in Tim Hortons. It was a very long weekend for me. I will go to work tomorrow to play Darts. I believe work is like a blessing. It helps us to organize our lifestyle. We don't have to worry about how to spend our time. It helps us to be productive and also keeps us away from negativity. Schools are the same to impart a positive change in our life. We have no issues in the earlier days of our life, how to organize ourselves and to chalk out our day programs. In the later stages, we have to find hobbies to be active. Our health issues start coming up with our age. We have to keep that in mind while choosing our activities. We don’t have to be too ambitious while making our plans. With time our ne...

David Austin giving me smile

    The weather is great. Blood red David Austin roses are smiling in the flower bed at the back of my garden.  The flower bed is looking great with pink, purple, white and deep orange flowers. August is nearly done. Today is the 28th. Time flies fast. The new year of 2025 is not new anymore. I came back from England a couple of days ago. It looks like I have never been away from my home. Things are back on track. I started working part time, going to play Darts three days a week. We humans are unique. We are easily able to adjust to the surroundings. Manage to adopt whatever is available to make our time. Yesterday was a busy day for me. I was planning to sort my clothes after coming back from my work. I made it. I organized my closet.  All the clothes were on my bed to sort out. I packed some in my suitcase. I won't be needing those for a while in winter time. It's Thursday, I am off, no Darts today. We have to keep our plans ready to switch to get ours...

From Camberley to Kent

          Now I am on a road trip for a while, I  was at my youngest daughter's place in Camberley.  Last night I came to Kent at my other daughter's house. Her son picked me up. He came with his younger brother. Insisted me to have the front seat. Lucky me. Kent is a small historical town. I like its High Street. At one end of the street are the old castle and Church. This Church is the second oldest after Canterbury Church. I like to walk around. The castle is sort of challenging for me to walk uphill. I like the beautiful interior architecture of the Church. Such a peaceful atmosphere to sit for a while. On the High Street there is Morley bakery and Coffee House. It was established in 1985. I like to sit there to enjoy tea over there. I like historical places.  So many Charity shops are all lined up on the High Street, I like Charity shops. So many antiques to look around. I feel that time stopped, taking me back to have a feel of...
