First event was a Wednesday hike organized by Joanne. The usual five, her and me, Joanne the Lesser, Erika, and Martha. We went to the Arastradero preserve where we have hiked a few previous times. As we went up (and up and up) Joanne the Lesser commented on how I was not breathing as hard as she remembered from the first time we took that hike. Apparently slightly increased walking and also climbing stairs to the 6th floor has had an effect. Yay me.
Through the middle of the day I was working with various people on getting stuff out of the Green Room. A major win: Nancy of the Treasure Trove had already disposed of a complete rack of used clothing that was stored there. I thanked her and asked if it was ok to get rid of the two tired old clothes racks that were left, she said fine, so I did. We progress. Also worked with Mary Beth on persuading her that the Treasure Trove should fund a simple upgrade to the AV desk in the auditorium.
Patty had organized a dinner for Phil, a 6th floor neighbor who today moved to the 8th floor. She invited me plus Joanne and Sally who are the floor reps for the 8th floor. Nice dinner with nice people. Afterward we went up and viewed Phil’s new apartment which is very, very nice, nicer than mine for sure. A large one-bedroom in the corner, which is like mine, but with nicer carpet and some really fine built-in kitchen and office fittings.
