Emily had a good day today.
She is beginning to find it rewarding to share her memories with a larger audience and in writing. She has so many memories and her stories have always been entertaining and have given her listeners a glimpse into her perception of the events in her life.
Here's an observation. A week or two ago we had some big wind in the neighborhood and damage to lots of trees. A tree man came in to the neighborhood and did work for several people, and several other people did work themselves, trimming up trees, removing several that were damaged pretty badly and trimming up lots of others. Mom got the tree man to promise her some of the wood he was cutting, but before he could get it to her someone took it. So Alan and Lynn got the truck and loaded up some wood from a different pile that had not been cut into such nice lengths. It's been parked at her house for a week or so awaiting someone to have enough energy or endurance in the cold to unload it. In the meantime, she was taking logs off the truck and burning them in the fireplace. Yesterday, she decided that she didn't want to wait around for someone to come unload the truck, so she did it herself! She also called a fellow and got a load of firewood delivered and stacked in the side yard.
Emily's always loved a fire, and she's all set now!
