It seems to be time for cornflowers at the moment.

Who does not have them, usually in the cellar or perhaps somewhere where there is a place that no-one sees them Yes collecting boxes is part of our daily life it seems, after all they might/will come in useful. At least in my part if the world they have almost become a necessity.
Everyone collects objects that we afterwards realise they come in a box. Keep the box, is the general idea. You might, or probably will, have another oject you wand to discard. Today so much is no longer wanted. Technology above all advances and the old computer or software is no longer needed, so pack it in a box. There might be a kitchen machine that no longer functions. I needed a new toaster, so now I have a new one, but keep the box, something else will most definitely need it. We have a twice yearly collection of anything and everything. Keep the box and use to for the next colletion. However often you have nothing to dispose of, and then you are left with the various boxes. Somewhere, somehow ther will be a use for an expty box. I remember some time ago a cupboard with a mirror in my bathroom crashed to the floor, so what to do with the broken fragments. No problem, take an empty box, fill it with the various pieces and give it to the disposal. What they do with it is no longer my problem.
So remember, boxes are useful, keep them. They also fill up the cellar and someone, somewhere is bound to need them.Everyone needs new shoes now and again, What do you do with the empty shoebox. Keep it and fill it with something you no longer need and in my case wait for the rubbish collection.

No beautiful colourful birds here is my Swiss area. I have never seen a cardinal bird, but can imagine they must be something very striking in colour. Living in a catholic area of Switzerland I must admit I have never seen a cardinal in our cathedral, but they are probably more at home in Rome.
One of my newest requirements in my kitchen is bottle of tomato sauce. I am always on the lookout for refining my cuisine. I usually empty a tin of tomatoes in a sauch for the flavour, but have now discovered the bottled tomato sauce, so decided to include it in my shopping list last week. I have now received a bottle on my online delivery. It is still untouched in the fridge waiting for its debut which will probably be tomorow when I cook my chopped chicken breast in a sauce. I am always ready for new ideas and discovered the idea in Facebook of all places with photos. They often have new cooking ideas and tomato sauce is included. Not wanting to cook a cardinal I decided on an animal friendly soltution.
I actually wish they would stop updating everything. I am too old to change my computer antics daily. It is all under the name of progress, I know, but I do not want progress. I want my computer to behave as I am used to it behaving. I sometimes think my computer is also no happy with the eternal changes in its software and there are times when it refuses to do what I want it to do. I wish I had a computer with everything outdated that I do no have to discover how it now functions.

The effervescence was to be heard and seen this afternoon. It was not continuous, just now and again with warm sunny spells in between. Unfortunately just at that moment when I left Mr. Swiss in his golden oldie home to drive home on my scooter, the heavens opened and I luckily found a bus shelter, although my new short haircut was thoroughly wet. Luckily I was wearing shorts and a summer t-shirt so it was just me that got thoroughly wet.
Now I am at home, but the second clouburst is upon us so I can watch it from the shelter of my paiio outside. It is also accompanied by noise from the storm, but everything under control. At least it is more pleasaant than the continuous hot high temperature weather we have been having and my garden plants are now opening their leaves t get relief from the high temperatures.

Retired and Enjoying Every Minute of It
I am Ahmed Abdi, a Wordpress blogger and storyteller who searches for stories that inspire people. I love writing because it’s a reflection of how I perceive the world around me. Lost in a world of endless chaos in my childhood, Unforgettable moments of tragedy and triumphs taught me the art of storytelling where I found myself through letter writing and then turned into stories but then sadly had lost everything I wrote for years. In 2018, I decided to create a Wordpress blog site that would allow me to store and retrieve every piece. Stories from my community, city and people are what make my writing so interesting and inspiring! I’m a tea lover so a cup of tea sometimes makes my blog.
