Even though it hit 90 yesterday, it was cool enough overnight for Ray to open all the windows and it's pleasant right now, if a little humid. I slept almost 9 hours, so I'm caught up.

Yesterday morning, it was about 7:30 when I woke up and the chickens and my Dad were outside. I made blueberry pancakes and homemade bacon for the three of us. It doesn't taste like commercial bacon. For one thing, the slices are thicker and smaller. It is saltier and fatter, but it's kind of good and fun to eat. And we know it has no nitrites.

Ray and I went to the Fellowship and sang with the choir. Among other things, we sang, "the ants go marching one by one" as we processed, in honor of Memorial Day weekend, I guess. We brought leftover salads and ate lunch with a few other people before the Leadership Council meeting. Ray went home with Karen P. and I stayed until almost 2.

It was hot and the air conditioning was running when I got home. I rested most of the afternoon and had a headache by suppertime. I remembered I needed to check on Nancy's chickens, so we went over there. They needed water, so it was good I came.

We ate pork chops and things from the garden: asparagus and peas.

By the way, I weighed myself one day last week, concerned that I have been eating too many cookies and baked goods, not to mention bacon and sausage. I have lost weight since the last time I stepped on the scale! Some of my clothes are loose. It's the cookie diet...Ray says he hopes I don't have some incurable disease.
