Walked the dogs, made blueberry pancakes, went to the Fellowship. Sang and enjoyed the service, which included the idea that wishing someone good luck was a sort of prayer. Stayed for lunch and enjoyed talking to some new people. Ray helped with the dishes, so we were there until the bitter end. Tied up some details for a couple of UU things we're planning. We drove to Thomas's and bought apples and a few plants. They have fall vegetable plants, as well as a couple herbs.

We had volunteered to help with the Priests' sustainability showcase at 3, so we didn't really have time to go home, but drove over there and killed some time at PeachMac admiring the iPads and other things. Ray stayed in the parking lot to drive shuttles, while I rode over to their house in another Prius to help there. I was assigned to worm composting, so can tell you all about that. Chatted with others about solar clothes drying and water collecting and other good topics. They have a 3000 gallon cistern that irrigates their garden, including blueberry bushes. My parents came out and enjoyed some aspects of it. My father can now state that all three of his daughters have Priuses.

After that, we stopped by the Kenney Ridge meeting and potluck, which was just about over. We didn't even bring any food, but were urged to stay and eat. Bill S. had made a crab and artichoke pasta dish, which was tasty!

I spent the next couple of hours perfecting a 3-minute speech I will make as part of my second job interview tonight, taking information from their web site and practicing on Ray and my parents.

Then we watched a little TV, but I had trouble falling asleep. Too much going on and not enough sitting with chickens, maybe. And now I am up again, ready to start a Monday morning.
