I am Off today

It's mid September and the weather is good. Perfect to enjoy walking outdoors. It can change anytime soon. 

We Canadians know that so making full use of the time in hand. We don't have to grab a jacket while stepping out of our house.

It looks so comfortable. We don't have to decide on our shoes. Any shoes will be fine. We can go with our candles. We rarely have a chance to use these except in our short summer days. 

Same with our shirts. Not hiding under our coats. We can show off for a while to feel good.

It's Tuesday 10.15 in the morning. I am off today so I don't have to go to work to play my Darts. Today is the garbage collection day in our neighborhood. Bins of all colors, blue, green and grey are lined up by the driveways outside.

I don't see much activity outside. Not many cars, just a few waiting for orders to go ahead. It's a working day so most of the people must already be gone to work and school. Just a couple around my age must be home or some working from home.

I have to get ready to walk to Tim Hortons to get my tea or maybe coffee. I will decide over there. We have to switch menus sometimes. You feel good that way too. We have to go for anything that adds up color to our day.

I am at the Coffee House. Not all the tables are taken still I hear, many people are busy having chit chat with the people of their choice. Students from the nearby high school are lined up by the counters to get things to enjoy their time.

I got my favorite spot. I am happy. Enjoying my coffee and my time alone slot. Time alone in my opinion plays an integral part to get mental peace. 

I think we have to take some time off to talk to ourselves. To listen to our inner thoughts. You get inner peace deep down. Try that.

The sun not yet awake

  It's a cold cloudy morning. The sun is not awake yet. Drowsing under his grey blanket. He must be awake till late at night.  It was raining all night. It just stopped and will start again after a couple of hours at 10. That the weather channel is predicting. It is 7.30, I got up early today. The first thing I do is to check the weather of the day. Time is running out. I have to get ready for my walk. I will miss that otherwise. It will start at 10 and will be raining all day. I have to dress up in layers. It is 8 C. I have to pick my maroon umbrella just in case. That umbrella I got years ago from Dollarama store for three dollars. We have to be prepared while getting out of the house. Not good to get stuck on the way to spoil the trip. I have gloves, my woolen cap and my red woolen stole. This red stole one of my senior club friends gifted to me. Gifts are like souvenirs. Doesn't matter how much it costs. Price doesn't matter. I am all set ready to leave. M...

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...
