Yes. It was another one of those meeting days. A 10 am meeting was cancelled at the last minute, which gave me more time to prepare for the 11:30 meeting. Then at I pm I got on a Zoom call with the Encore Nominating Committee. That ended at about 2:15 which gave me 20 minutes before I had to leave to pick up Ollie. So, I dove into developing a PowerPoint slide show of photos for tonight’s Indivisible meeting. I was just about finished when I heard my phone ding. It was Ollie asking if I was picking him up. Uh-Oh! I was so absorbed in developing the PowerPoint that I forgot to watch the time. He had already called Heather to come get him before I could call him to say I was on my way. Heather let me know later that when she picked hin up, Ollie said, in his Ollie Lama way, that since I am trying to save the world it was okay if I forgot to pick him up!
Then it was time to hustle to get the handouts organized for the Indivisible Falmouth meeting and get to the library to set things up. Whew! It was a busy day, but we had a good Indivisible meeting. Then I was off the Select Board to support a letter sent to the Select Board members from Falmouth Immigrant Rights Coalition and Indivisible. We are asking them to take actionable steps to make our community more resilient against ICE. Saving the world is exhausting. ? ? ?
