Day 68 October 30

 Today I attended my first all-staff meeting.  They quickly put me on the spot as we were introducing new people, and I didn't handle that pressure too well.  I couldn't think of 2 truths and a lie.  I just told them three truths.  After that, we heard from all the departments and what was going on within the organization.  After the meeting, we went to Clarke Melon Apartments for inspections.  There are not very many apartments here, so it was quick.  After that, we went over to the Ridge for an eviction.  When we got there, the tenant answered the door and decided to go get a money order and pay his rent.  Then I went with Tony over to VSR, and we visited with Mark, the leasing agent, for a while about all the crazy things that had been happening on the property.  When we were done visiting, I took some pictures of damage in one of the rooms and then helped Josh make and hang some doors.  After we were done with the doors, we went over to Bentley for lunch, then came back and took pictures of another room with damage.  When I was done with pictures, I did some touch-up painting and then called it a day.  When I got home, I made supper.  Tonight it was chicken enchilada casserole.  It turned out really good.  After supper, we played Pandemic and then watched an episode of Severance.

Day 28

We got up at 3:30, hoping to hit the road at 4 and then be on the trail at 4:30.  We were pretty close to on time.  We were hiking Mount Princeton.  Since we were in a van, we had to hike from the lower parking lot up a Four Wheel Drive trail for 3 to 4 miles.  When we finally hit single track, it didn't take long for us to be rock scrambling.  We had about 3 miles of rock scrambling to the top.  About half of it was just along the side of the mountain, but then we really turned uphill and had a pretty steep scramble to the top.  We finally made it to the top, and it was an amazing view for a little bit.  A snowstorm was moving in quickly, and we watched it start from a nearby mountain and slowly come toward us.  We had a slippery scramble down the shale on the mountain.  Then the snowstorm caught us, and it was kind of just a sleet, but it made all the rocks very slippery.  By this point, some people were fighting headaches.  ...

Day 26

Today I was with maintenance again.  We started off by going to Arcadia to do some inspections.  These rooms were much better kept than the last apartment we did inspections in.  We only had to do 3 rooms, so it didn't take long.  Then Bill took me over to Bentley, where I continued taking pictures again.  I did pictures most of the day, and then Bill picked me up at about 3:30 and we headed back to the office.  It was my day to cook, so I decided to make a pizza, which turned out pretty well.  After supper, we decided to try another community youth group for young adults again.  It was kind of like a church service with singing and a sermon.  I was not super into it because it was a non-denominational group, and they just do things a little differently.  On the bike ride home, my chain fell off while crossing the bridge over the highway.

Day 32

Today was pantry day.  Since Trilby hurt her finger yesterday, she tagged along with me to the pantry.  I started by running to Home Depot to get a wagon wheel for the wagon at the pantry.  When I got back from Home Depot, we picked up Doug and went over to the pantry.  Jenni was sick today.  We dropped Doug off at the pantry and then went to pick up the food at Sprouts and Trader Joe's.  We had a relatively light haul from Sprouts, but a fairly substantial haul from Trader Joe's.  We got everything put away in the pantry in record time and then had time for a good, long lunch break.  There were not a lot of good options for lunch, but eventually I found a pretty good sandwich.  After lunch, we started the pantry and had about 20 to 30 people come through.  It was not that many people at the end of the month, because usually by that time their government funds have run out.  Once we hit about 2 o'clock, we pretty much didn't have an...
