Our French exchange student, Gerald, is here for a few days. He is so upbeat and fun to have around, we are really enjoying having him, even though we drove to Atlanta to pick him up last night. He talked all the way home.

We also voted yesterday in the primary election and I am recruiting volunteers to staff a HQ for the democrats.

My parents put in their application for Lanier Gardens and were told the wait would be about 2 years.

We are having the floors stripped and waxed at the Shelter, so spent some of yesterday moving books out of the way. This morning we'll be moving furniture.

I have been talking to some people about changing our property and liability insurances and it looks like we will save a few thousand dollars by going with a non-profit insurance company that I found through the Alliance of Non-Profits. That makes me happy.
