Homeless in San Diego

Okay....so I got a really cool send off party from the Relief Society at a Mexican Restaurant...Lots of people came..even Colleen and Christine and Cynthia R.....I even got cards and some gifts !! Free lunch..........Dadu came to rescue me in the afternoon...he got to help clean up mess as the movers were just leaving...lots of junk boxes in the yard and stuff we were leaving..and 1974 food storage...........we gave it all away and filled the yard waste trash can with the wood and boxes...they can't help but notice since it is about 6 feet taller than the can..all 3 trash cans were overflowing !! Jim said he would take them to the curb Monday and back in empty after Tuesday..he is the best neighbor !! It took from 3 to 7 to clean up the rest of the mess..and take garden stuff to a family in the ward to keep for us..garden boxes wood and chicken wire and propane tank and gas can...........they said, sure no problem...that ensures that they get to see us again !! Mom took 2 car fulls to her garage...plants, gallons of water, a garage light, all these aerosol cans of stuff, the car stuff, paint stuff, insecticides.............that kind of stuff...that ensures she sees us again too !!
This morning we went and did a temple session...we need some divine assistance and the temple is about 10 minutes away from our studio suite.....suite is such a cool word...this place is not...it is small living room size...dark as a cave and no security sheers...so I bought a white fabric shower curtain and hooked it up beside the curtains so we can pull the curtain over and tie it and white covers the window and we have light !! We are having a swell time ..!?!?!?!

Tell us how the new Sunday thing went? Since you are homeless and just visiting ...

How do these kind of changes affect you ... in your OLD age? :-)
