Woke up at 5:00 am. Course work until 7:30. Out the door for work at 8:00. Worked throughout the day, primarily in the office, although I also built campers a camp fire and dug out the gate which leads into the state park as recnt rains have left the bottom of that gate buried under two feet or more of sediment. Sarah called to say that a stray cat had shown up at the house, and that she had taken it in. I am opposed to keeping the animal. Left work at 4:15 to attend a barbecue at the McQueeney's house. They were celebrating their completion of the foster care courses they have been taking. They are excited about being foster parents. I felt challenged by their example. Came home from barbecue at approximately 7:45, put the kids to bed, and then fell asleep myself at 9:30pm.

Dinner- Hamburger, Spicy sausage, ships & salsa, salad, and an ice cream peppermint patty.
