Well, Ray got back in the middle of the night. I haven't talked to him, but I opened my eyes when he walked in the room and went right back to sleep. All's right with the world. I am also very glad to have a job to go to this morning. The news is still all about people out of work. I didn't have to look at the want ads yesterday And when I talk to people at church, I don't have to say I'm still looking for work.

I went to the forum yesterday morning as well as the service. Neither was especially inspiring, but I like singing hymns and talked to several of my favorite people, like Deb B. Then we ate leftovers for lunch and Captain and Vanessa went to play bridge. I had the afternoon to myself, caught up on some of my filing. Kenney Ridge had a community meeting at 4--there were 20 families represented, so that was good. We approved some relatively simple changes to how business is done, and added some money from the general fund to the community center budget so we can have a wooden floor in the meeting room and a standing seam roof on the south side for possible future solar panels.

Then I met Captain and Vanessa at UGA, where we left a car for Ray to drive home when he got back late at night. Since there was a home football game this weekend, he couldn't park in his office parking lot Friday night or Saturday. Those spots are for fans who pay a lot of money to the athletic association. Then we went out to dinner. And that was pretty much the end of the weekend.

A lot of my free time was spent reading about traveling in Spain, the northeast part, to be exact (Galicia). I will fly to Madrid, meet Amelia, and we will travel to Santiago de Compostela or Vigo, probably by plane, where we will rent a car and stay somewhere rural. I am excited and nervous about it. I'll only have a week.
