Yesterday morning I worked on my bookkeeping and getting a good list of donors to send letters to, and drafted a letter for board members to approve. Kerri was supposed to be there, but she called. She had strep throat and the doctor told her not to come in. She was pretty mad about it, but I agreed with the doctor. I hope she is feeling better today. Jaron was back from vacation, so I didn't feel too guilty about leaving at one. Molli and Amelia were at the fabric/yarn store, so Ray and my parents and I played cards. Then Amelia wanted to go for a walk. I went for a while, but I came back and Molli and Amelia went on longer. It was cold, but sunny and beautiful.

I got dinner started. Being able to cook for my children while they sit there chating with me is pretty nice. Molli made drinks and got out the snack, her specialty from childhood, arranging everything nicely. We also spent some time researching and discussing today, because Amelia is flying out of Atlanta this afternoon and Molli wants to see her friend Adam, who is leaving for Brazil, probably for a year.

After supper, we were sleepy, but we played cancellation hearts until almost ten. Then Molli continued working on getting rid of things from the closets. I said I would participate while lying in my bed with the door open, but that didn't work too well. It will be nice to have things a little emptier, though. We already have bags of things to take.
