Got up a little before 6am this morning. I must have slept pretty well last night as I am so far feeling pretty good physically. I decided I was good enough to work so managed to get a cancellation time with the Disability Buss for 8:40am. So far I've been busily getting stuff done before I have to leave. I'm keeping positive and looking forward to getting out of the Apartment for a couple of hours this morning.
Work was good and productive. I'm so glad I went. I'm feeling pretty good and have decided to attend the transit meeting this afternoon. The disability buss has really worked out for me as I managed to get to and from the hospital this morning as well as booking to/from the Meeting later this afternoon. This has really boosted my happiness today. YAHOO!
The meeting was fairly well attended by mostly Seniors and physically and emotionally challenged people. City Councillors and the Mayer were present but did not participate. City Manager ran the meeting which included groups of tables discussing and reporting on many different questions to be discussed and presented. Marking City maps with 5 most popular sites of each participant including areas outside City limits that have no service presently. A significant amount of data collected to be reviewed by Councillors and staff prior to next public meeting in a few weeks time. It's more progress than what the City tried to implement when they first announced the changes prior to public protests and complaints. Still don't think much will come of all this but I'm going to do what I can until final decisions are made. Interresting that all councillors were there to hear what the city residents were complaining about and why they are so upset and angry over it all. Stay tuned, I'm sure more is to come.
I totally forgot that the Disability Advisory Committee Monthly meeting was this afternoon so I did not show up for it. It was an important information meeting and really wanted to be there. However, the provincial representative will be at next months meeting to give some instruction to our members and I'm glad I'll be there for that. She was also at the transit meeting this afternoon so I got the opportunity to meet her.
All in all from originally thinking I would not be able to make it to volunteer today my body ackes of yesterday were so much better today that I got through this busy day quite well indeed. However I am very tired tonight but a good happy tired instead of a very painful and exhausted, no energy tiredness. A huge improvement for sure.
I am grateful for today and being able to work and be a part of something that I am passionate about. Also, nothing is scheduled for tomorrow other than getting to the bank as I'm pretty much broke at the moment and I don't like not having some cash on me.
