One of the benefits of working is sometimes it is restful compared to the weekend. I am looking forward to it because I won't have to worry about anything else while I am there. Yesterday was a good, but busy day.

Vanessa went out for a walk before 7 and still found it hot by the time she got back. When I went out to walk, our neighbor, Sky, asked if I wanted to pick some blueberries and I said "yes!" We had blueberry pancakes for breakfast. Ray and I enjoyed the service--Dan Everett spoke about the economy and how it is an opportunity not to go back to "business as usual." We had lunch at the Fellowship. Then I picked up Janna and we met Vanessa for some shopping at Ann Taylor Loft, Coldwater Creek and Talbot's. I got a fun skirt and a lavender t-shirt.

Then I met Sara Ruth to work on our project, which she will resubmit to him today and I hope it will be ok this time. We have two more classes, and then 10 days to do our course (teaching budgeting to homeless people) and prepare our final presentation in class July 10.

The really good news is I was able to get tickets to go to Seattle! Admittedly, it will be a little crazy and I hate leaving my parents here alone, but after we go to Mexico for 10 days, I will work 3 days (payroll, etc.) and then leave again for Seattle, which is a place I love, and I will meet my new niece, Lidet!!
