Running the swap shop

Friday

I got up at 8. I did the usual morning stuff, including plants and gophers. I checked e-mail and messages.

At 9 I went to the chapel for Math Morning. Because the alarm was going off again, I texted Janet. When I didn't hear back, I texted Chris. Saronna and the kids came and we decided to have Math Morning in the sanctuary to get away from the alarm. Eventually the fire department showed up to turn it off. They said the battery was low, and they had put in a work order to fix it.

Casey and Cedric came late. I helped Jedediah count chairs in the sanctuary. The other kids had worksheets to do. At 10, they packed up. Saronna said she had stuff to take to the swap shop. Since they were on foot, I had time to go home and get water and go to the bathroom.

Then I went to open the Swap Shop. Saronna, her kids, and Isadora came to help process donations. Tara was already there, working on kid stuff. We got through a lot, but not all. Bryce came to pick up a bike.

After everyone left, I got my mail. Saronna texted asking for a pic of the fancy ash tray. So I went back in to take a pic. Then I went home for breakfast. I ate fiber gel and laid out for 20 minutes. Then I came in to make breakfast.

While eating, I looked at supplements online. I read articles. I looked at walkthroughs of Police Quest and decided it wasn't for me. I looked at one of Rama and saw a few key things that I needed to do next time I played. I went to the commissary for a few groceries. Then I went home to drop them off.

I went to Mary's house to clean. I talked to Jamie who was there mowing. I cleaned inside for 90 minutes, then walked home. I ate fiber gel and put supper in the toaster oven. I read outside barefoot. I ate supper and worked on my blog. I caught up on VMIS hours by reading previous blog posts.

I got ready for Game Night and headed to Michelle's house. I had a jar of goat cheese for her. Casey put up Rama. I loaded my saved game, and hunted around for the things I needed to do. I had trouble finding the ladder, but when I did, I got the key and opened the locker that had so many useful items in it. I took the conveyance down to the base camp. I found a few things there. Then I went out the door into the 'world'. There was some map that was used to travel directly to various artifact sites. I was able to pick up more artifacts and items. But I didn't know what to do with them.

I got stuck, so after that I just chatted with Michelle. She thinks I need a new dress for the Air Force ball. It was after 11 when I finally thanked them and went home. I was tired and just took supplements and went to bed.
