It is National Unplugged Day, from dusk yesterday to dusk today, originally based on interpretations of the Sabbath. I did not watch any TV or use the computer yesterday evening and I was trying to decide about blogging this morning, but I am not reading my email or going on the internet otherwise. I don't usually watch TV until evening anyway.

It was rainy all day and in the 40s and 50s. In the morning, I took Ray and his gear to his office. He got the van and should have left about 12:30 with the students, driving up to Cloudland Canyon near Chattanooga. I don't much like the thought of him driving a van full of students in the rain. He said there were enough professors that they would take turns, so that's good. I don't think the cell phone service is very good there, so I am not surprised I didn't hear from him.

I spent a couple hours at ALT, still playing around with Salesforce.com. Printing mailing labels from there is impossible; you have to export them and then merge them in Word. So I downloaded ODB and will see about using it. I talked to Nancy some and looked at the other things I am working on a little. I left at lunchtime and went home to my dog and my chickens and my house, even though it was cold and rainy. I did break down and put on the heat. I even got a smoky fire going that helped some. I made bread and ate leftovers for lunch and supper and washed my dishes. I listened to music and chatted with Molli and Amelia. I went out for a short walk after supper in the dusk with Cameron. Then I went upstairs and got into my nightgown and my bed and read some. I fell asleep about 8 and slept until after 5.
