Hopped in my litttle Ford at 8:00 this morning load with groceries and bound for Los Pobres, the migrant center run by Sister Nancy. Our church had gathered food stuffs all month and today was delivery day! And I get to do it! Hooray for me!
Snowed last night and the mountains were beautiful. Since I had almost a half ton of food in the trunk and back seat, I was not worried about sliding off the road. Can't slide when you are that heavy. Very soon I arrived.
I went inside while Rosie made coffee and we waited for the workers to arrive to unload the car. I knew I had to run back into town and get another load and bring it back before I had to be at the library at 11:00 for another appointment.
So off I went and very soonly was packed again!
44 bottles of oil and 43 bags of flour later and I am headed back east.
This time Sister Nancy is there and little kids are playin on the computer. With this picture of serenity in my heart and mind I am once more in the Ford this time headed West to the Library and the delivery of the AIDS Quilts.
My watch and my speedometer are keeping me on track.
Met these two guys from SCAP at the library and dropped off the AIDS Quilts to be hung later, had coffee at the Pantry and then decide to head for the post office.
Luckily when I reached for these two packages, I dropped my keys and headed inside.
And this was my next stop. This is the Auto Tower from Colorado Springs that Triple AAA sent to get me back in my car!
And this is my new friend, Cisco, who actually opened the door so I could retrieve my keys from the floor! Guess God just thought I should have a little break. I sure appreciated it. When you are standing in the middle of a parking lot waiting for some one to open your door, you meet a lot of nice people who tell you, "Oh, been there, done that!" And then you don't feel nearly as stupid as you did 20 minutes earlier! And Triple AAA is very fast! They call it a "lock out", so I am pretty sure I am not the first one to do it!
