Sunday...I remember how depressed I used to get on Sunday evenings, not wanting to go back to work. I don't feel like that these days, but there is a shift in my mood...time to get serious and start worrying about things I haven't been worrying about for a day or two. Lots of things up in the air around here. Molli has been accepted at two law schools in Boston! yay. She is waiting to hear from lots more and then figure out which is best for her...and which offers the best financial package. She is lining up work to save money. She has a couple jobs already, part-time, temporary, but a good start for her first week. She also has to figure out what is best for bringing Adrian here...plus all the little daily things to worry about. Meanwhile, I am still waiting to meet with the young woman at the Athens Village program. She cancelled two appointments last week. Now we are in the second week of classes and I am very anxious about my internship. No money is involved, just my time, and my future potential earnings! Other than that, lots of planning and arranging for Elisa, as well as the rest of us.
I had a board and lay ministry retreat at UUFA yesterday 9-12. It was not what I wanted to do with my Saturday morning and did not produce any concrete results, but was generally a good thing. I may need to work on my patience some more. Once I ran out of yarn, I had trouble sitting still and being engaged. Not to mention, I chewed on my fingernails some.
Meanwhile, Ray went to clear invasives on the property next to Kenney Ridge--for about 4 hours. He was tired and hungry when he got home. Molli and Elisa went to Pilates class (without me, boo hoo). Elisa's friend Luanna was in town. Molli picked her up and took them to the mall for the afternoon.
I washed the dishes at the Fellowship and rode home with Dan and Nancy M. Molli and Ray and I had lunch and hung around. My Dad arrived and weeded the asparagus thoroughly. I put the clothes out on the line.
We picked up Elisa and Luanna and stopped by the Fellowship for the Athens Activist Fair. Molli and I signed up for a few e-mail lists and said hi to some people we knew. Then we took Luanna back to her host Dad, who was playing wheelchair soccer at Lay Park, picked up my Dad, and met Janna and Ron at Cine to watch the Life of Pi. Pretty amazing movie and story. Intense, but not gory. One of the things I love at Cine is having a whisky sour while I watch the movie. In this case, with some Snow Caps chocolate candies. Maybe not your typical combination.
We took my Dad home and the rest of us ate a fabulous dinner at Farm 255. I had clams. The chocolate cream pie was awesome...in a jar. And the Malbec. Unfortunately, it ended up costing an arm and a leg. We were home a little after 9, but watched a couple TV shows because I was still kind of keyed up. And then I didn't sleep great. Not enough exercise yesterday, maybe. Today's a new day.
