Tuesday Ramble

Yesterday was one of those days you would like to climb under the covers and start all over again.  Sadness was in the air.  My daughter lost her dog two weeks ago to a fast moving illness.  And yesterday she lost her cat to another fast moving illness.  Six hours and he was gone.  Poor babies.  My heart is broken, and I worry about my daughter.  It's not easy dealing with the loss of one, but two in such a short time.  Unimaginable.  

Had a bit of pain yesterday.  Sciatica acting up on both sides, but I still went to the center.  Was looking forward to the Wellness Class, the guest speaker who was going to talk about stress management, and cooking class.  Well, Wellness Class was canceled for the third week in a row.  Facilitator had jury duty.  But, she had to know on Friday so why not tell us.  I wouldn't have gone so early.

No speaker showed up, and no one from the center said anything about it.  Then, I decided I'd best ask to see if Food for Wellness was going to be held before I sat around another 2 hours waiting for it.  Guess what I was told!!!  It will be held on Wednesday.  Well, last Wednesday they said Monday.  It seems staff there is very lackadaisical.  No one covers when another is out, and no one seems to care that there is a group of us who come JUST for the classes.  Very discouraging.

The one good part of yesterday was lunch.  First time I had turkey chili.  It was yummy.  First time I ever had turkey chili.

No wonder I am having issues with the scale.  They have some darn good cooks there.

First signs of spring in the garden in front of my building.  What a good feeling!  Temperature here in Brooklyn hit 74, and the sun was shining.  Awesome.

Have a good one.
