I was a little off  yesterday. I guess that's not surprising, given the big build-up to Friday night's restaurant and the fact that it was not what you would call a huge success. Plus the weather in the afternoon was cloudy and it started raining.

I had leftover fruit compote in my yogurt and a quick bath, after putting away most of the things from Friday night. There wasn't time for a walk. 

I went to the first meeting of a Leavelight circle, which started at 10 o'clock across town. I was almost half and hour late. This is a group following the curriculum laid out in the book, "Leavelight." There are forms and exercises to help you through the process of having your affairs in order for your death. Perhaps I have been doing a little too much talking about death. There were some horror stories of people who didn't take care of these things and caused a lot of pain for their loved ones. We nibbled on cookies during the morning.

I was there almost three hours and came home hungry and a little sad. I was smart enough to call Ray and have him take something out of the freezer and heat it up for me. Then we had more fruit compote and split a piece of apple-peach pie (with whipped cream) and a piece of apple cake. Yum.

Later in the afternoon, after we got the chickens in and fed the pigs, I had a brownie with whipped cream. We changed our clothes and picked up my Dad and met Becky and Kent at A Tavola, an Italian restaurant that was running a special before the play. We saw Enchanted April, with Kelly and Bryn and Genevieve and enjoyed it very much. I had a whole Coke because I was afraid I would fall asleep otherwise. I stayed awake, but didn't have any trouble sleeping, so that's good. It was late when we got home, but I had a slice of carrot cake (with whipped cream). That's five or six desserts in one day and there are still a lot to get rid of.
