We went to Zumba this morning and had a good workout. We came home, showered and walked Danny Boy. Then it was back to the church to help in the Kanal Kitchen. Once a month, we serve lunch to the homeless people. Erin and I were on clean-up duty. I washed, she rinsed and a couple others dried. Some people prepared and served. The young people help with preparing and serving and putting up the tables and chairs and taking them down. The high school has a program that requires students to do so many hours of volunteer work for their graduation.
The lunch was excellent. A choice of beef barley soup or chicken corn chowder, grilled cheese sandwiches, and home made bread. The desserts were provided by the ladies from the zumba class and there were lots of them. I chose the chicken corn chowder, the grilled cheese, a slice of bread, Ree's (the zumba instructor) pumpkin cake and chocolate cookies. The homeless people are all so very grateful. They looked happy and we were happy to help them.
I adjusted my timer for the Christmas lights. I have it in the shed with a long extension cord coming out and over to the east side of the house. The globe arborvitae, the Alberta Spruce, and my new little driveway tree lights are plugged into an outdoor outlet and that is plugged into the extension cord.
The other side has the driveway tree lights and the lights I wrapped around the spruce tree. They are plugged into the outdoor outlet near the front of the house.
After zumba, we went to the library and got three movies for tonight. The librarian picked up one and said, "This is blue ray." I said, "Oh no, I don't have a blue ray player. Do you have that in regular?" The other librarian looked around and pick out the new Pirates of the Caribbean. So I took that one. I tried to find movies that neither Erin or I had seen before. I was thinking about going to the movies tonight but it is too expensive. I get a senior discount but Erin doesn't.
Not long before this year is over.
Happy New Year to my blog reader buddies.
