 Norma's Wanderings around a small section of Montana |
| I just passed the 20 year anniversary here at WDC. Mercy - has it been that long??? Thanks for all the well wishes. I appreciate each and every one. So many changes in my life and on this site. We went from full-time rovers, where I first found this wonderful group, to full-time residents in a small town and homeowners again. So, what has happened lately? The 4th of July was annoying, as usual, with the fireworks. Big ones, that last night, all around. N - S - E - W- all around our home. I fled for a time, my husband later told me he was also worried. He felt like it was large artillery, he's an Army vet and knows the sound, although they didn't explode like artillery. But for a few days after I found fireworks debris all around in the yard. And a bit on my kitchen skylights. Perhaps on the roof as well. We haven't checked. As far as I know, no homes caught fire. There was one serious injury. But the city won't change. That much I know. We'll complain. As we do every year. There is also drama with the senior center. I think I've mentioned this previously. Now they are cutting back to 3 days a week serving meals instead of 5. It is all someone else's fault. The center is running out of money, and there are serious allegations of embezzlement and mismanagement of the entire program. They don't have money to pay employees, so everyone is not getting paid. No food can be bought. So now community people are donating. To the tune of thousands of dollars. There will be a meeting tomorrow, and I will go on behalf of the paper. I'm sure it will be a he said- she said meeting of the board and the management against the financing entity. Should be entertaining. I have my own opinions. Stay cool everyone - hot and dry here. At least there is no humidity! |
