Rain Stops Finally

 We endured a lot of rain.   Pineapple express thing.   

Way too much rain.  My yard is sinky mud.  We also had wind.  Fortunately the neighbors massive evergreen did not fall.   It is not well tended.  By this afternoon, all was calm and dry.

This morning I returned Stormy, the long hair young gray male.  He was neutered yesterday.

Afterwards, I went to Gleaners and worked several hours.  I displayed bread, loads of it.  We always have more bread than anything else.  Then helped display canned goods and juice (we rarely have much of this and very little variety).   

Then it was adoptee box filling time.  I was sent a trainee, a younger man.   He learned fast.  

I was home by 3:30 or 4:00.  Collapse time.   But I wasn't that tired.

Since I missed distribution last week I had a week of creative dining, and finished off nearly everything in my fridge.

Mostly I ate the stew, potatoes, carrots and onions bioled.

Don't worry I like it fine.

Today I have bread again, a couple of bananas, some broccoli, a couple oranges, a pepper, a can of chili, a few other things.  There was not a great deal of food, except for bread, so I kept what I took limited so everyone could get some.  R, the lead today, had made an appeal that all do this so everyone got something.  There are a couple of leechy people there, who do as little as possible and take as much as possible.  I don't like them.

I got six eggs.  I was happy about that.  Inflation is ramping up again.  Gas has gone up in the last month by over $.40 per gallon, among other nasty price increases that are really difficult.  Our country is falling apart, at least the country we once knew.  Some nights I cry to think about it.  Especially the cozying up with Russia and turning backs on long time friends.
