Got to work before 8, I like it when it's quiet and I'm the only one there. Went to the post office and the bank. We got a $1000 donation! from someone whose child was a friend of our daughter in preschool. I had a really nice, albeit expensive, lunch with Becky. Left about 3, met Ray at the pool. It was 102 here. Even in the pool, people were wearing hats, and it was less crowded than usual. I found my hat, which I had left there. Interesting story. I went to look in the lost and found, but it was locked. I asked one of the lifeguards and she came and unlocked it for me. I was looking around; told her I left my hat. She said there are some over there. I said no, mine was a blue straw hat. Oh, she said, I think that one is in our office." I would not normally have asked her, if I didn't find it in there and so I wouldn't have known, if the room hadn't been locked. I don't know if they were afraid it would get taken or damaged in the lost and found--or if they wanted to keep it for themselves! But I was glad to have it back.

At home, I spent about an hour putting travel information in folders. I decided that "later", when I am going to do everything, has arrived, and it's time I buckled down, rather than just telling myself I am too busy.

I didn't have to do any cooking; my parents had made gazpacho and we still had leftovers. Falling asleep by 9, but still woke up about 4...
