I had a really great day yesterday, I was very happy when I went to bed. Oddly enough, I had trouble falling asleep and slept really badly and now I feel pretty bad.

I spent an hour at Hendershot's helping Jennifer C. with her MacBook (need to record that for the Time Bank). Then I worked outside some. Ray helped and we put compost and mulch around the fruit trees and redid their fencing. He cut down a few of the little cedars, which made us sad, but the orchard really needed it. I did some other work in the garden, too. Something of a mystery--only 2 eggs.

At 3:30, I went to Catherine's and called AT&T; they will send her a new modem. It was much easier than I had expected. The Koches' house is for sale (they moved to Talmadge Terrace) on Springdale; $275,000. Seems like a deal to me, walking distance to 5 points and the bus system. 4 bedrooms, hardwood floors, lovely plantings.

Ray and I stopped at the St. mary's thrift store. He is supposed to be the Green man in a skit Sunday morning, so we were looking for green pants. There was one pair, but they were too small. He bought a couple green polo shirts...Then we went to Kroger and picked up some things, including Breyer's ice cream, 3 for $10! Mahi mahi was $4 a pound, so we bought some. When we got home, I didn't really feel like cooking it. And when we cooked it, it didn't really appeal to me. But I ate most of it. Watched TV, including a little bit of the Fifth Element, one of my very favorite movies. I resisted watching the whole thing for the 10th time, but saw a few of the best parts.

Went to bed just after 10; Ray went right to sleep but I just couldn't quite do it. The moon is almost full; it was quite warm. who knows?  Finally after midnight, I fell asleep, but didn't sleep that well and now I feel kind of nervous...oh well, it will be better. maybe I am sad because it is the end of our "break" and has been pretty fun. Also, I seem to have several (minor) responsibilities piling up. After I cross some of them off, I'll feel better.
