As I pen this a full-fledged snowstorm is enveloping our city. While I know many folks dread winter weather I admit to loving snow. My skiing and toboggan days are long over, but nothing adds the perfect ambiance to Christmas like snow.

With only a few days remaining until Santa arrives I have been making an effort to be well behaved, however Santa had better arrive soon as I am not sure how long I can keep up the facade. Reader response to my request for Charlie91裸聊视频檚 Christmas Angels List has been huge. Here are most of them. I will publish my list (and Tez91裸聊视频檚) next week.

Dodie Bennettt writes, 91裸聊视频淚t is indeed a privilege to name George Mapson as a person who has gone above and beyond to assist others. George has made and continues to make, a significant contribution for the burned out residents of Waters Edge condo complex.

91裸聊视频淕eorge, who is our strata president, has worked tirelessly with cheerfulness and diligence since the fire, putting in endless hours to ensure all residents stay informed of the ongoing process. To this end he has sent out 26 electronic bulletins in the 21 weeks since the fire. These bulletins are entitled Making Every Day Better at Waters Edge. George believes communication at times like these, are vital for our well being. 91裸聊视频淭hese electronic bulletins, complete with pictures, tell of the status of the deconstruction and reconstruction process.

On Sunday, Dec. 10, my 97 year old friend Nancy, who has lived on Poplar Point Drive since the 195091裸聊视频檚, had a fall. I went outside to see if a passerby could help me to lift her back into her wheelchair. A man was jogging back from Paul91裸聊视频檚 Tomb, and I called out to him. He stopped, came in, and happily picked Nancy up and put her into the chair. He was wonderful and needs to be recognized. I hope he can be on your Angel list.91裸聊视频�
