Probably going to be a short post tonight but you never know what will happen when I start writing.
Was a typical day today, nothing out of the ordinary. Feeling a little better after being on the medicine for a full day. Throat still hurts, coughing a little less, but extremely exhausted emotionally and physically from the past, almost, two weeks. I have learned and experienced a lot but I am ready to come home and be with my family. Really missing them.
Tonight is my overnight at the Hypothermia Shelter and it has been interesting so far. Twenty five people means we have a full shelter. We provide them with a hot meal when they come in for the evening. Each get a little 1/2" thick foam pad and a sleeping bag on the tiled concrete floor to sleep on for the night. It isn't much but they are not outside in the cold. We have a smoke break at 8, 9, 10, and 11 and then it is lights out until we wake them up at 6:20. We will have coffee ready and a bag breakfast that they can take with them and they have to be out by 7:15 but most leave before then. No problems to report but if there are I will talk about it in tomorrows blog. There has been reports in the past of people leaving in the night or fights breaking out but hopefully it will be an uneventful sleepover.
Can't wait till Saturday!!!
Esperanza!
