I seem to do a lot of catching up. Saturday was Fill-A-Truck Day at Redner's Supermarket. My friends from the Ecumentical Assoc. were there collecting food for the poor. I gave a couple large cans of Dinty More Stew, a large can of sweet potatoes, a couple cans of Spam, and a couple cans of Chef Boyard Di's Ravioli. (Not sure of the spelling). They were also collecting coats. The Food Pantry is a ministry supported by all the churches in Chesapeake City.

Sunday, I sang at both services and did the counting for both services as Cindy was away. I was hoping to take my niece and her husband to dinner for their birthdays but Cheryl was sick. It sounds like she had the same cold that I had. She wasn't feeling well enough to go out. We texted back and forth. She asked what the doctors diagnosed for me. The Dr. said it was a sinus infection but I felt like I nearly had bronchitis. Cheryl asked what Dr. I had, as she seem to hint the Dr. didn't know what she was doing. Monday, Cheryl went to her Dr. and he diagnosed a sinus infection, also. Neither of us knew we had sinuses in our chest.

In the afternoon, I trimmed my evergreen shrubs with the hedge trimmers. Of course, I cut the cord when I was almost done. I had it plugged into a surge protector so I just had to push the reset button. I had to get a kit to repair it with a new socket. It will be 4 feet shorter. I try to be careful and it was the last thing I needed to cut and zap.

Monday, I went to the church to work on the financial stuff. There were bills to pay and bills to research. I ran the financial statements for the Committee meeting Monday night. I had a lot of gripes and complaints about things that needed to be addressed. The committee felt as I do and will look into the problems and get them resolved.

We are supposed to have rain/snow this morning but so far I don't see any trace of it. I brought in my snow shovel and "paws" (ice melter than won't harm pets or concrete) I also covered my car with a tarp over the windows. The tarp is specifically made to cover from the windsheild to the back window. It's supposed to fit Honda Accords but it's a little short. It had straps to anchor it down. It hooked them to the spokes in the wheels. I don't know if there were directions or not but they are gone. It was also difficult putting it on in the dark. I used it for Sunday morning so I would have to spend time scrapping the frost. It worked well and I threw it over the railing of the deck to dry. I attached the hooks so it would blow away in the wind. It dried off well in the wind.

It will be back to the church this morning to work on the finances. I don't know if we'll be having exercise class as the ladies don't come out in bad weather. I also need to go to the bank to have them help me with an online setup. Tonight it's off to Choral practice. I can't believe it's almost time for our concert.
