I was kind of surprised that we had an assist meeting this week but they certainly wanted to have it and I was not one to disappoint. I was kind of excited about being able to use the transit system and the weather being as good as it is. What did delightful thing to do on such a blustery but warm Winter's day. And it is winter now officially it may be winter but I see it as days closer to Summer now. Granted we still have to get through Christmas and New Years but soon we'll be having longer days of daylight when I assume that we're still going to get some inclement weather besides just rain I mean it's temperature's going to drop and we're going to see snow I think before this is all over. It would be nice if there's another way to obtain moisture but sadly this is the official process get whatever comes in the mountains no winter time as snow and what can seep into the groundwater. On good Winters we've had more than enough snow and water. The trade off of course is the parking lots and driveways and sidewalks I'll become ice harbiters one of many. But day that we don't have it's snowing ice is a day closer to Summer and probably the drought. I wish there was a way to move clouds direct to where you want them. This moisture / Cloud manipulation but greatly assist us in our drought issue.
The assist meeting was kind of slow we basically sat around and ate goodies sent in by contractors and Friends of the organization they're all kinds of things really homemade ginger steps which are kind of soft but that's what people like. Cookies and cake and all things historically holiday ish. We had a few documents to sign but not very many but it was nice to get together with the staff and with my fellow working person volunteer Robin. We all talked and ate and enjoyed each other's company but soon it was time to end we only had five or six signatures needed. We talked and talked for a while but soon I realized it was time to get out of there and so I did a dude to everyone Merry Christmas and Happy New Year I don't think we're going to meet next week. On the way home from my meeting. I want to cross the street and caught the trained got off at the hospital and then got on the bus and got off at the market at Macy's and did a a little bit of marketing for food for the holiday weekend. I got steaks I got a slab of ham, new grapes I even got chicken legs/ drumsticks that I don't know if I'm going to fry or take them in the crock pot with barbecue sauce I don't know. All I know is now I have enough to get through the holiday I don't think I'll be entertaining or I'll be getting anything from anybody else. I did look for a Christmas card or two one for Marc Anthony and then one for Lissy and I lost the one for Lissy. I lost the card on the way home even before I got out of the store actually. I didn't stop at the Dollar Store got some milk. I'm actually pretty excited they fixed the oven door so now I can lean on the handle and actually pull up in the stove door which means I could do some actual cooking if I really wanted to. I think I don't have to go out anymore until after the holiday which is just fine it sounds like we are going to get some moisture in the next couple of days..
