I came to the front and made coffee. Had a cigarette and then worked on my blanket.
There was a mishap with the breakfast (French toast) because it got overcooked so we had to wait a while for breakfast.
They substituted with waffles and some fruit but the waffles were hard so I didn't eat them. I did eat the orange slices though.
I saw a couple of the residents were going to play Scrabble outside so I joined in. I came in third.
Around 10:15 I came back inside to eat the rest of my leftover hoagie and I worked on my blanket some more.
Lunch was served by a group of people. It was chicken noodle soup, turkey bologna sandwiches and Dorito chips.
I continued to work on the blanket.
A woman came by in her big SUV and brought some food from a leftover junior prom - cake, pastries, orange slices, coffee and tea.
I continued to work on the blanket.
The shelter served cake as a snack.
Dinner was ham, potatoes and vegetables.
For the rest of the day I continued to work on the blanket.
I went to bed at nine.
Yes, I have been working on this blanket for a long time. It's supposed to be a "throw" which means that its size has to be big. Plus I was working on a deadline and wanted to be finished before the deadline comes.
