When I got to Bridges to visit with my sister at 4 pm this afternoon, she was in such a good mood that it truly lifted my spirits. We had a nice walk in garden (me pushing her in a wheel chair), she opened a couple of birthday cards that she was holding on to when I arrived, and we had the best conversation we have had since she arrived. So I will take that as a WIN!
I spent my morning working on preparing an end of the fiscal year report that goes to the town from the Board of Library Trustees. As Treasurer, that is my job, as well as formulating a budget for next year. I will meet with the other two Trustees who serve on the Resource Committee with me on Monday morning to continue that process. Then I headed to the library for a special meeting of the Resource Committee about future budgeting for the East Falmouth Library project. That project just got moved up by two years, but we have to get this on the November ballot to get the approval of the people of the town for the budget override. Getting this job done is doing to take a lot of effort and more meetings than usual.
This evening, I went to Heather and Jed’s so Heather could help me get a new phone set up for sister. It will only be used to monitor her blood sugar levels, but as a ‘new’ refurbished phone, it had to be set up. Thank you, Heather!
