Today was the office party of my aunt. She is the supervisor of a place here where they care for the differently abled. I was introduced and spent the entire day at her station getting to know the place and seeing how the staff interact with each other. Sometimes when I see how these people as individuals are cared for it makes me both sad and happy at the same time. Sad that they were for the most part abandoned by their families and happy that on the flipside they are now loved and cared for by people who are specially trained to take care of them. Her job is very demanding but with her at the head I know that everyone gets the best care possible. Its great that there are institutions like this as I don't think that Trinidad really has the facilities to care for such individuals.
The cold report.....well the snow melted today but the entire place was gloomy and wet. The general coldness was because of the damp atmosphere. It was seriously chilly as I could feel the wind right through my pants. Eventually I'm gonna need gloves and thermal underwear. Inside the house is okay though so that''s a positive. But I'm starting to have to wear socks as my feet are cold despite the heat.
I'm off to have a hot shower and get some dinner. I'm home tomorrow as she has to work but its okay since I can spend the entire time in bed.
I expect to do some reading tonight online and the
sga_santa fest is keeping me buzy.
