Surprise spring snowstorm


cold robin seeking shelter

We had a surprise spring snowstorm last Monday.  I had planned to get my health card renewed and decided to do that in spite of the weather.  Sure enough, the lineups at the government office were half the usual length.  The administrator said it did take her 45 minutes to get into work that morning, for what is usually a ten minute drive.  I told her 'well, at least you made it' and she agreed.  She asked if I wanted to be part of the organ donor program.  I hesitated, thinking I had to do that online or by mail.  With the press of a button, she registered me, asking only if I wanted to donate both my organs and my body parts for research.  I decided to donate just my organs.

I left thinking it was a good day and that I had accomplished some worthwhile things.  We have been having a cold start to spring around here, sheesh.
