Not Retired still in the Rink

 

Cold cloudy morning. Sun is hiding somewhere under grey blankets. My back garden is no more a garden now. Flowers are taking a break. Grass looking beautiful with white powder sprinkled over, here and there. It is a scenic view to behold. Winter season has it's own beauty. It is 8.30, I have to get ready to go to work, to play Darts. 

I am at the library, with my mask on. Game has to start in five minutes. We have to pick numbers to decide teams. I am in team number three. We have three players in each team. We are twelve players, today in total. Kitchen counter looking great with variety of cookies and cupcakes. Tea and coffee pots are ready. Such a festive atmosphere. We waited so long for all this. 

We take break after couple of games to enjoy our coffee time. It is nice to have company around in this Covid period. We have to show our vaccine passport and other papers to make sure that safety is not an issue and we all are following the Directives. It is important to tackle this Covid Virus. 

It is 1.15, I am back. Today my son was stuck in a meeting, so I am late. Usually I come home after 12.10. Anyway, things happen. We have to adjust, and try to make out of any unpredictable situation. I waited for a while, after that went to the library room, grabbed my favorite magazines, to enjoy my time. My son messaged me later, that he is still in the meeting. I told him, not to worry about, just take your time. 

We have to be thankful to our kids for whatever they can do for we parents. We have to keep in mind that they have their own life, their work and their own family, to get busy. It is nice of them, to be with us, for any time, they can manage, with their own things. 

Busy day for me. It is 1.30, I am done with my quick shower, now in kitchen to bake fish. I asked my grandkids, my son and my daughter in law, if they want some. They all want that. It is nice to put on the table, something and everyone in the family, is having that. Great feeling to spread happiness around. It elevates our mood, also gives us assurance that we are not retired. We are still in the Rink.
