I had a good talk with Heather about what I want to do. She is thinking: work with clients, volunteers, and grants. I said that sounded great. I said it was important to have a clear understanding of everyone's responsibilities. I did some preliminary work on a Mary Reynolds Badcock grant. They have an online form that you fill out and send in before doing a full-fledged grant proposal.

I had lunch with Becky again and it was great--I walked from the office. The temperatures were in the 50s and it was wildly windy in the afternoon. I didn't really have enough warm clothes, but it felt good to walk.

We didn't get home until almost 5:30, but I let the chickens out for a little bit. They absolutely didn't want to go back in. Ray and I spent quite some time shooing and corralling with sticks, but eventually they were persuaded. We had a quick and easy supper that used a cabbage from the garden that wintered over.

I went to a meeting of the Kenney Ridge Finance committee. I am the bookkeeper this year, which is not particularly difficult. There are only 4 meetings, so I should be able to handle it. Last night's was a little over an hour, but the rest should be even shorter.

We watched some shows and went to bed by 10. I have been dreaming a lot more than I usually do. Last night included some dreaming about coming back to the ASPIRE clinic and preparing a reception of some sort, even though every knew that the other candidate was chosen. There was also something about immigrants and a disaster. Dreams are so weird. But I didn't wake up until almost 7. Just feel a little off. Maybe breakfast and a walk will set me right.
