2 [degrees] below again today but warmed up considerably. Worked tonight at the Drug Store until after 7 o'clock and then stopped in at church before going home. Went to bed early. Wore my new tam today.
Nora Spitznogle: Saturday, January 4, 2025
I worked at both Marigold and the Red Key Tavern today. I braved the lines at the post office and grocery store also - everyone is shopping before the predicted snow storm. Still working on organizing the basement.
I'm hoping that Grandma Nora gives a hint of what drug store she was working soon. It wasn't quite as cold today as it was in Logansport in 1919. And I have a nice warm car to transport myself to and fro.
Speaking of jobs....my full time job is as the Chief Program Officer at Second Helpings - a nonprofit organization that collects surplus food from grocery stores, wholesalers, and events and turns it into thousands of meals each day that are distributed to other social service partners at no cost. We also have a free culinary job training programs for adults. I am so grateful to have a career like this.
I also have two part-time jobs that I love. I have worked at an amazing clothing store, Marigold, for the last 35 years. The store is full of great clothes and community. I typically work there once or twice a month and it's always a delight.
I've waitressed at the Red Key Tavern for the last 25 years or so. It's an iconic neighborhood spot just three blocks from my house and a fun job - the cash is nice too.
