I first thought my colds will take a beating of about a week but the allergy symptoms lasted only for 24 hours without any medication. I'm ok now as if nothing happened. I don't like taking meds and only take a headache/fever meds if its so severe when my eyes are already affected. lol. I mean sometimes runny nose and colds just go away within a day or two after I had hot soup or I had cold lemonade or iced cold iced tea or sometimes just a piece of Halls candy can cure my colds or itchy throat. That was quick.
The truth is I don't get sick as often as some people out there maybe because I tried to avoid crowds or I don't get out all the time.
I know life is so boring at age 60. I remember way back when my children aged 4 and 3 and had to bring them to the play center at the community hall and downstairs that center was a group of old folks mostly women age 60 above busy with their crafts. Women are invited to do some crafts (handicrafts, knitting, crocheting, sewing, etc). I told myself that would be more fun than what those other women on Bingo joints are doing eh? Looking back through the years, now at that same age...who would like to do those crafts? Or play bingo? But there are so many of them who are having so much fun with those stuff to keep busy at their old age.
I should be doing gardening but since we moved to another place, in another part of the same city and the land is not mine nor do I owned the building, having tubs with soil with veggies just something appropriate and appreciated. My husband RLT manages to maintain the yard in good order, lawnmowing, weeding and recently sprinkled fertilizer on the grass.
While most of us are living in modest, ordinary life other people from other provinces of Canada still battling the uncontrollable wildfires in Alberta, Nova Scotia and just recently New Brunswick. The Premier of Nova Scotia Tim Houston was heard begging for some people to stop burning because their resources are very limited. Then yesterday, the Immigration Minister Fraser also asked help from Ottawa to stop and control the wildfires in Nova Scotia.
What other people are doing when there's no calamity or disaster? Simply nothing? Of course WORK is the opportunity to do more work and be employed even playing is a type of work if you know what I mean.
Know why? To do something nowadays require financial aid. There is nothing in this world that is worth nothing. You go to the Dollarama stores and you'll find out that there is no one dollar product anymore. The cheapest product is now worth $4/each. Even the plastic bag in supermarket has gone up to 25 cents each so better bring your own shopping bags when you go shopping at Walmart, Superstore, and any other retail stores in Canada.
The minimum wage of $17.65 /hour is now in effect. I hope so. Hoping that the products wont be affected with the rise of the new implemented minimum wage or else it would be a loss cause. The only thing that could help the economy in better shape is the oil and gas extraction to once again flourish in Canada. Oil and gas are the primary backbone of the Canadian economy. Drill one more time. lol
There's enough oil and gas out there.
With all the waste and all the garbage out there,
there are enough batteries to make and fossil fuels to burn.
