Yesterday was sunny, although cold and windy. Very nice in the house and car.

After dropping Ray off, I went to the library. I applied for my unemployment benefits again and looked at the available jobs. There are some new ones at UGA I need to apply for, although none as appealing as the clinic director. I have not heard anything more about that, and I think my references would probably let me know when they were contacted. This morning, I emailed to make sure they received my transcripts.

I had a nice lunch with Janna at the Lumpkin Cafe. They had a special they called beef pot pie, but it seemed more like pastitsio. Ground beef with some sort of custard (and corn meal?) topping. It was tasty. Also a salad. And I splurged on carrot cake. Tommy Valentine is getting married this weekend; Ron and Janna are going.

At 2, I went to the writing workshop with Deb. It was very helpful and fun. I like several of the women quite well, including the instructor, Sara. I haven't read anything I have written yet, but we discuss several people's work every week, as well as the next assignment. I feel more able to write now, whether I can write anything someone wants to publish and that will earn money is a different question.

Ray took the bus and I met him at Hendershot's, so we were home about 4:30. My parents had been there and done more gardening, as well as fed the chickens, so I didn't have to do that. Now that we have had 3 dozen eggs from them, the cost per dozen is down to about $25, and decreasing every day.

For supper, I made a vegetable frittata from Spark people, with asparagus, zucchini, mushrooms. It sounded really good, but didn't taste that great. Perhaps it was healthier than the asparagus tortilla I would have made. Also made oven-fried potatoes. They were pretty good, but Ray was working, so they got a little cold.

After supper, managed to stay awake for several TV shows, go to bed before 10 and wake up after 5. I feel pretty good, too.
