Doors: making lemonade out of lemons

I was a little frustrated tonight because many apartments at Beehunter and Coolbrook etc are locked. So, I might need to see 2-3 who live on the inside but if they don’t answer their intercoms, grrrrr.

Despite checking “inaccessible” over and over again, I make sure I introduced myself to people who are getting their mail or watering their bushes. Yes, I have their votes!

Now, for the best part. A woman answered her door and recognized me from the health fair event at the senior center. She told me she had my literature, remembered my dad, who was with me that day, and finished it off with a hug. 

All good.
