ANDERSON COLUMN: Home for the holidays ... a whole new meaning

Christmas was totally different this year. We didn’t have to rush out to yet one more house. The grandkids actually got to spend the day playing with their new gifts instead of rushing out to get more. Dinner was wonderful because I didn’t have to cook (my daughter did), and it was my first year in 37 years where the first part of my day wasn’t spent at the shelter. I thought it would feel odd. At least different. Instead, it felt like I was home.
As we left for my daughter’s, first Diane then Shara called. “Barb, it’s cold outside, really cold, can you go by the overpass and to the Dollar Tree; there are homeless guys there and they will freeze. Please, I am so worried,” they both said. So I went, then I convinced my husband to go to the Springdale United Methodist Church and the winter shelter. We got there just as the Coalition for the Homeless staff was arriving and setting up. They assured us they would be there.
