03-04-22 The Duchess of Dinktown
Started the morning with fresh wet snow and my own banking to take care of. As usual February ends and something of mine has fallen by the wayside. Fortunately I took a call and made a payment that was missed without any penalty. The first couple hours at work was a phone consult with clients in Kimberley. They are lovely humans and need reports from me to apply for their permanent residency status. Next I was picked up by Stacey to go for lunch at the Firehall. It is burger month to raise money for the Foundry at about 10 restaurants in town. This was the one that looked the best to me and I was happy to spend the calories. It was called the Duchess of Dinktown and was downright delicious. Burgers are not my go to but I discovered that I LOVE dill infused cream cheese. Had a great visit with Stacey as well! Next was back to the office to meet briefly with the president of the CCT Board and then head to Arby’s for a photo op receiving their donation to Summer Sounds that FPPAS puts on. I got back to the office and made all the payments for a client before the staff is away next week for training. Then around 5 I shut off the timers and started working on MusicFest stuff finally. I entered 94 people in as proper contacts to my Gmail and then individually invited them to be part of the crew this year with the explanation of the protocols. I have changed my email so wanted to do it individually in order to avoid group email going to junk folder. I am late to the party as I was supposed to have it done at the beginning of February but… well, February. As it happens, the positive responses have been rolling in. I can’t wait to see the usual suspects and meet some new partners and friends of regulars who wish to be involved as well. I need 69 people to fill out my crew and hope that won’t be hard to fill. It may be a challenge for me to recognize everyone but I am starting to get excited. I got home after 9 sometime and have been relaxing and basking in a day well spent. I look forward to tomorrow’s ABC Zoom meeting.
