Collins Lowers the Boom

Rodney Collins delivered an epic presentation this past Tuesday to the Affordable Housing Committee. It’s a shame that it’s not on video.

Ron returned redeemables – almost 100 – and did the transfer station run yesterday.

We requested a copy of the title to his van from the RMV. It’s to be towed today to a salvage yard.

I signed off an electronic document confirming the mileage.

Meanwhile, Ron inadvertently wrote a check on his old, closed account. He couldn’t find his new checks, but I located them this morning, thus saving him the cost of replacement. He reimbursed me for the bad check fee.

I am driving Peter to an endodontist this morning.

Select Board; Harvested Rhubarb; Lizzie Food

The Select Board meeting last night was epic. In a reversal of their July 25 reorg, the Board unanimously elected David Weeden Chair.

John Cotton was terrific. He made the nomination and a sincere apology for the “optics”. Great example of effective leadership.

Harvested rhubarb yesterday for the first time this year. Ron cleaned and chopped it up for sauce.

Made more Lizzie food this morning. She woke me up last night around 3 am but settled down after eating some kibble. I was able to get back to sleep.

Spoke to GEICO this morning. The van is totaled and they’ve offered cash. Ron seems pleased. We need to find the title, though.

More Cooking

Made a huge pot of Lizzie food today with giblets picked up yesterday at Stop & Shop thanks to a heads-up lady in the meat department.

Baked two zucchini casseroles and both came out quite well, although peeling the zukes would have been a good idea. The zukes, tomatoes and basil were from our gardens.

Ron dropped off his busted hearing aid at UPS. It’s headed for Beltone in Dennis.
