It wasn't rainy, cool and partly sunny. After I took Ray to work, I went to Small Group Ministry. There were two new members there, bringing the group to 9, which is great. They have some mental health issues and the facilitator had her hands full trying to conform to the structure of the group. It wasn't as enjoyable as other times, but it was still good to hear about people's lives. I tend to think of everyone as variations of me, but the focus of other people's lives can be very different. One person said she has a diagnosis of schizoprenia that she has been trying to fight.

I went to ALT and heated up my lunch, more chicken and spaghetti. Someone else (an intern?) was using my computer, so ended up sitting somewhere else. Worked on importing mailing list into ODB. Only 50 items imported. I will try to figure out how to get the rest. After working with GliftWorks for a few months at the Shelter, this seems out-dated and I can see some of the flaws.

I only stayed a couple hours, because I needed to buy a few things at Earth Fare before I picked Ray up. Came home, let the chickens out, admired the garden. Built a smoky fire. Made supper, watched TV, went to bed.
