Can they read?

Sunday

I got up around 9, having spent a lot of time awake in bed, but then sleeping in. I got ready for the day. I read messages and watched interviews. At 11, I decided to make cheese squares. I preheated the oven while I mixed eggs and cheese. It got very smokey in the kitchen and by the time I was ready to put the mixture in the oven, all the fire alarms went off. Chris turned on the fan and opened a bunch of windows.

I made and ate breakfast, then got dressed. I took some of the cheese squares to the chapel along with my trombone and music. I talked to several people and played through one of the hymns for later. Then the service started with praise music. Cpl Popken gave the message since Chaplain was out of town. Popken ended the service and we had to remind him that we had hymns to play. So we played. People sang. The service ended.

Afterward, I talked to John M for awhile. The doc said he could play trumpet and might come to band. I went home and changed clothes. Chris and I took my car to put air in the tires and gas in the tank. We stopped at the post office to check mail from Saturday. There wasn't any, but I spied three bags of clothing outside the swap shop. They were directly under the sign that said we aren't taking donations right now and please don't leave bags in the hallway.

I put together some amended water (Boogie Brew) and took 3 buckets of compost to the garden. I raked the grass clippings out of the way and put down the compost and poured the water, raked it back and put hay on top.

I came home and saw a message from Erynne. I went to Erynne's house to get the two paintings from Thursday. When I got home, I put pulled pork in the toaster oven. We signed into Discord for the game. We played the game: we went to some small town that we had saved earlier. It was under attack again so we saved it again. Then we went to an inn for the night. Pixies were stealing stuff from the patrons, so we caught one and questioned him. He agreed to help up.

After the game, I worked on my blog and texted with Jamie. I put egg boxes on the front door for the egg lady. I made tea and we watched one episode of Brokenwood. Afterward, Chris went to bed and I stayed up to work on the Zoom worksheets, filling in the blanks. It was 11:30 till I got to bed.
