Wednesday 11th December

The snow is going, I went out yesterday and today while the going was good.    Not a lot to write about.   I realised it is just next week I am going away for Christmas, and haven't done much to prepare for it, so I rang my friend Jay, who is going to see to Bubbles, then went to Walmart to stock up on cat litter and bags of food.   A trip I made in the middle of the night while the store was quiet, and I could park near the entrance and avoid the slippery places.

This afternoon I was ringing my little hand bell with Phyllis, collecting for the Salvation Army.  I was surprised that a lot of people are paid to collect - I would have thought that would defeat the object of the exercise.   We weren't paid though, Phyllis was asked, as President of the AARP, if she would send some volunteers.     I got a bit cold as I left the house rather hurriedly without wrapping myself up as well as I could have done.

Afterwards had supper at Emmanuel.   I didn't need to make any cakes for dessert.   There was a party on Sunday morning after the 10.30 service - which I didn't attend because it was too icy to get out -  and there was lots of cake left over.

Bubbles puts her herself to bed, she has even cottoned on to which side is hers - ie not the side next to the nightstand - but if she wakes up and I am not there she comes and settles down in the computer room.   I don't know why she doesn't just turn over and go back to sleep.
