Warming Up

Feb. 26, 2010 This week's warming center was not very busy due to the weather. Those who braved the slush and snow enjoyed a mac & cheese lunch with the rest of the staff. We made needle felted pin cushions and embellished them with beads from our stash. Next week we will make wire angels that can be used as pins or hung in the window or be used as gift ties. While cleaning up after our fun time, staff members Crystal, Yvonne and Wayne made more fire starters. Nobody got burned with the hot wax and we have a new supply of fire starters for the furnace. UMEM has been closed for the last two days due to the winter storm that has closed schools and agencies in the area. Our rule is that if the school is closed, UMEM is closed. So, staff should be rarin' to go tomorrow! Till next time, Kay
