Stii in his grey blanket

 

 

Snowy day cloudy morning. The sun is not yet out of his grey blanket. 

I think he may be up till late at night,  and must be partying with friends. 

The weather is not too bad. Not too cold. It's 10.30, I am already done with my breakfast.

Not much to do at home. I checked my table calendar. I did my hair wash yesterday. My laundry was already done last week. I changed my bed sheets and did the washing. I am now done with that for about a week.

I am getting ready for my trip to Tim Hortons. To take some time out from my computer. It will be good to be away from the screen for a while.

The roads and walkways are cleared off from snow still it is a bit slushy to walk. I have to walk carefully taking small steps. These couple of months used to be scary for me.

We at our age have to be extra cautious. We know that any mishaps will be disastrous for us. We will be done for the rest of our life God forbid.

 It doesn't mean that we have to become couch potatoes. We don't have to become house bound. We just have to watch for our safety while doing things.

It is 11.30, I am at the Coffee House, enjoying my coffee. Just got a message that one of our community friends passed away. Her funeral ceremony will be at 2 pm. I will go from here to attend that.

We have to make a point to share the special moments with others. Especially the moments of grief. To be with them at the difficult time of their life. Sharing dilutes the intensity of grief.

It gives assurance to them that you are not alone. We are here for you. To give support to give our shoulder to rest for a while. It matters a lot for the people who are undergoing hard times.
