protecting the fruit trees (Ray's hand)

After racquetball, I called Shaye and went over my changes to the annual report. We were on the phone an hour and 20 minutes! Then I went to ALPS to do some bookkeeping, but I didn't get it done, because i had to meet Wilma for lunch at 12:30. We spent almost 2 hours talking about UUFA stuff. She is now officiallly up to date...and I still have a long "to-do" list.

Then I spent a couple hours outside. The Captain and Vanessa had defrosted the big freezer. I did some weeding. At 4:30 I headed to pick up the meat. We got one big heritage turkey, pork chops, ribs (Ray is happy), a pork roast, a cube steak, 3 1-lb packs of ground beef, one of sausage, and 2 dozen eggs from a local meat CSA we joined. We paid a few months ago for six months of locally-grown meat from Nature's Harmony (see blogs I follow). Then I picked Ray up from the bus and came home.

I just had a short time to make sandwiches and grab some food before heading to Watkinsville to listen to Heidi Hensley and some other women play. My friend Andy invited me and I was thrilled to join her, just us girls, for an AIDS Athens fund-raiser. It was a little cool when it got dark, but Andy had brought a blanket and we enjoyed it.
