Sunday was another beautiful day, although I didn't spend much of it outside. Made pancakes. We rushed to the Fellowship to be there in time for the beginning of the Forum again (9:30) to make another plea for contributions. Choir sang Cherish your Doubt. Dave preached about humanism. After the service, the Board prepared the Fourth Sunday lunch. there was enough food, it was good and we raised over $400. Plus we announced that over $15,000 had been raised in additional pledges, exceeding our goal by $1000. We still are reducing our staff and it's very hard, because they will have trouble finding other jobs now.
After cleaning up from the luncheon, while Ray was giving platelets, I went to ALPS to do my volunteer bookkeeping. I knew the Blood Center closed at 3, so I left at 2:45 to pick him up. He wasn't ready, had another 30 minutes to go. So I went to Publix, which is very close, and bought some groceries. Took him home, sat in the sun a little, froze the leftover macaroni and cheese, got him to cut up strawberries and made a sauce for it. We went to Janna's for dinner, taking the strawberries. It was a very nice dinner--soup and salad. Janna is working very hard at her job, but seems really happy.
Yesterday, I did my homework before I could go to work, so didn't get therre until 9. I corrected 3 packets by 11:30! I kept double-checking to see if I had skipped some, I couldn't believe I was able to do it that fast. I had done 6 by 3:30; went to meet Ray at Ramsey for rball. Played better than usual, but he still has complete control of the game, letting me get a point now and then, but able to finish it whenever he wants to. Came home, had mojitos on the deck. Ray made dinner. I started the ziti, but need the marinara sauce to finish it. Mom is making it from the frozen tomato sauce she made last fall.
Good energy this morning, but probably didn't get to sleep early enough. Looks like another nice day.
