Travels of the Agnew Family for 2008.01.01 to 2010.01.31

It's been a busy week and a half and we didn't manage to do anything real exciting. Ed has taught two of his photography courses and so far so good .... people showed up to the second week so the first one must have been OK. He's taking the teaching thing seriously and preparing his lesson ahead of time. I've been playing cards and sorting books and we've both been going to Spanish class --- I think a little has sunk in. Oh yea, and we've been doing a lot of eating --- out for lunch on the 9th, ice cream on the 11th, dinner celebrating Rosetta's birthday on the 12th, homemade ice cream at Lorna's on the 13th, out for dinner on the 14th celebrating Ed and Harold's birthday, out for a pizza buffet on the 15th, just because it was Friday out for dinner on the 16th and tonight is Bean Soup Supper at the club house. If this keeps up I'm going to start rolling soon.

Last night was the start of our "week on". As street reps we need to find people in our area (we have a whole field of units) that are willing to help serve dinner, clean up after dinner, put up and take down tables and chairs, serve ice cream, serve doughnuts and coffee and cleanup at Saturday coffee and do what ever else happens to need doing during the week. So far so good, we managed to get the tables and chairs up for this mornings coffee and we survived coffee. Tonight we get to serve the bean soup supper .... hopefully it goes as well as the coffee did. Then it's six days to go ......

I'm not sure why but people chuckled at coffee when Ed stated his age during the "who had a birthday this week". Either they couldn't believe he was as young as he said or they couldn't believe someone that young would be in the park. When it's my turn I'll pretend that I didn't have a birthday.
