It rained a light rain during the night.
This morning Sis and I went to church to help clean. Two other people came also. It didn't take long. We were done in about an hour.
At 1 p.m. we went back to open the church for the woman who was in charge of this afternoon's Christmas party. However she didn't show up until after 3 p.m. The party was to run from 3 pm to 5 pm. We went ahead and made the coffee and tea and set out the plates and utensils on the table. Sis made a crockpot of chili and a pan of cornbread. Other people had also signed up to bring both chili and cornbread but the only one that did was a pot of chili that the woman who came late brought. No one brought desserts.
The man who played Santa came and passed out toys to the children. We did have a pretty good turnout.around 50 people.
The woman who was supposed to be organizing the party went home early and left the rest of us to clean up after the party. The other couple who were on the committee finally came after we called them, claiming they thought it didn't start until 5 p.m. When someone said something rather sharp to them about it, they left in a huff, taking their pot of chili and pan of cornbread with them. Real Christmas spirit all around!
When we got home, I boiled out the coffeemaker that has gotten pretty limed up with our hard water. I ran two pots of vinegar through it, then a pot of clear water, then a pot of coffee and it turned out great.
