It was rainy and overcast yesterday and still humid, but it didn't get to 90 for the first time in months. Too wet to do much in the morning, except walk the dogs out to get the paper. Then to UUFA for water communion and Alison's first service. It was good. I enjoyed singing, but it was not our best work--only one rehearsal. We drove down to get more peaches (and shared an ice cream cone) and then met the Captain and Vanessa at a Chinese restaurant. I ate moderately, but we all felt kind of full afterward. Ray took a nap. C&V took the recycling and I ran the vacuum quickly. Then I spent some time looking at recipe books. I spent some time on the computer and phone too, trying to recruit volunteers for this week for Democratic HQ.

After supper, Ray and I went to pick blueberries. I had seen some in the community garden and asked whose they were. Nancy said they were hers, but we were welcome to them. It was almost dark; we saw a large hawk, but we picked about two pints before calling it a night. Then we stayed up too late watching TV, as sometimes happens on Sunday. Not the best start to a stressful week.
