It was a good day, although it verged into stressful at times.

Cool in the morning, up into the 80s by evening. Some clouds, but pleasant and breezy.

I was the first one at the Land Trust and was alone there for a while, a not unpleasant feeling. I really like the building, with its big hallway and wooden floors. Nancy arrived and asked me to take a look at writing a grant proposal. She was gone for several hours and I sat at her desk and worked on it steadily, copying from an earlier grant and rewriting and organizing. She seemed impressed when she got back. I also showed her and Nathan the mailing list I have been working on and she seemed pleased with it, too. Now there are some things I need to do to it before we can do the newsletter mailing. I called the bike shop again and am supposed to go there this morning to talk about our fund-raiser. I am a little nervous about that, and then there will be other work to do for it.

I picked up Ray a little after 3:30 and we went to Earth Fare and got some groceries, mostly for our weekend at the beach with friends. My parents will take care of the house and the dog and the chickens. We got home at 4:30 or so and Ray started right in making the macaroni and cheese for potluck, giving me a chance to look at the garden. My Dad had transplanted some tomatoes and onions. It is like having a garden elf to come home and find things have been done for me.

We went to the Fellowship, where the directory proof had arrived. I spent about half an hour looking it over and there are some things that need to be fixed. I was a little disappointed, because some of it has to do with the file that Shaye, the congregational administrator, had sent them, with some mistakes and quirks in it. I will need to talk to her at some length. I also have some questions for Olan Mills. The sooner I can get it fixed and sent off, the sooner we will have our directory.

Choir was enjoyable, but I was anxious to get home and get some things done. Of course, when I got home, it was too late for me to do much. I did make the rub for the pork roast and pack some of the food items.

I managed to watch John Stewart, and most of Wheel of Fortune, before I fell asleep and went up to bed.
