Good Afternoon, Everyone!!
There's no Black Friday shopping for me either. The weather is too miserable and we are trying to dig out today. It has cleared off so we now have sunny skies but it will be down to -40C by morning including the wind chill. No matter how cold it is, the folks still come out for my Thursday lunches.
Today I am baking Butter Tarts and attempting to clean my house. It seems as if I just can't throw enough junk mail and stuff out. It seems to arrive faster than I can deal with it and being so involved with community endeavors to keep the homeless secure and fed is more than a full-time job. I have realized that I just can't do it all but I will continue to do my share. I am already in the throws of planning extra meals for this coming month for 200 or more people each time. It is tough to find the time to do my own stuff. Who was it that said retirement was easy....BAH HUMBUG!!! I am working harder now than I ever did. But I also find that I tend to run out of steam from time to time and all I do then is sleep so once again I don't get my stuff done. It seems like a vicious circle. But life goes on and I need to get off my soapbox!
It was nice read that none of you were without power for the holiday and it was safe, full of love and sharing in everyone's family.
Blessings to all,
Dennis
