AMD Income Statement, Starbucks "Active Rewards" -- May 2, 2023

Locator: 44522S.

With weather turning really, really nice, now biking first thing in the morning, I'm actually stopping at different locations to blog. I have an "active rewards" card from Starbucks that I bet is at least twenty years old. It's a pretty nice-looking card. Coffee and croissants are expensive but the ambience for blogging at some Starbucks, not all, make it worthwhile.

The "rewards program" is really, really "poor" unfortunately.

School Funding

Today Sophia said the third graders were asking for certain art supplies but their art teacher said she had no money for any more art supplies, and that makes sense -- end of the year.

But, tomorrow, Ms Morgan will get a cash donation from Sophia that will get the art class through the rest of the year! Whoo-hoo!

In addition, tonight, Sophia and I will stop by Target (or possibly Walmart) to get her some of the art supplies the students were requesting.

Sophia does that periodically for her various teachers, and it is amazing how much the teachers appreciate it and how far those teachers can make a little bit of money stretch. 

We'll do the same thing for her music teacher.

Balcony

With weather in the 80s and 90s, the balcony is now wonderful. Our balcony is on the north side of the building which is perfect. By late afternoon, it is shady, and it is absolutely gorgeous as we go into the evening. The balcony morphs into a tropical forest during the summer, and becomes a bird sanctuary. Amazing what one can do with a little bit of "land." Photos pending.
