I am a little less panicked now. Yesterday I finished the work that was due the day before and most of yesterday's too. Today a draft of our final project is due and I haven't started it...but it is due at midnight. No potluck for me!

At work yesterday, I was thrashing around emptying my desk because we got some new donated furniture from an organization that is closing down. The desk I have is nice heavy polished wood, with locking file drawers. The desk I am getting is not nearly as nice, but it has a place to put a computer--yay! Alison decided we should get new carpet while the desks were out of the offices (she is getting one too), so she went to Lowe's and bought some remnants for $100. When I go in this morning, I will have carpet, but no desk. It will be delivered at 9 am...so it was a pretty crazy day.

Ray and I went to the pool for a little while. Then school work. Then we went to a dinner in Watkinsville, at St. Theophilia (that's not quite it), the Greek Orthodox church. There is a new program called Bread for Life where they teach people to make rolls, as well as lots of other skills at the same time. Five of them graduated and there was a wonderful banquet dinner. Alison is on the board and was trying to get more people to come. (it was free). There are a lot of good things about the program and the food was great, but it seems like a very expensive way to train 5 people. And they still need to find jobs now. Fred Smith (Sr.) is apparently the assistant Labor Commissioner (to Michael Thurmond). He spoke and I asked him to say hi to the boys for me. He is not a great public speaker and I wondered if that is why he encouraged them to be good at it. He also called on God a lot.
