Quite a productive day. I got the first batch of currant wine into the jugs. It smells really nice.

We took the "good stuff" that we got out of the basement to St. Vinnie's, I got my hunting lisence and we got some shelves for basement.

We went to the Interstate for lunch. I got a Reuben and was it ever good.

Tonight there was an environment meeting at church. Sr. Marcia used to do all the planning but now that she is gone, the committee will have to do it. There are rules and there are precidents and there are plenty of imaginative people to pull up the slack. We decided on what we are going to do for the Assumption and for Celtic Faire. It will be a case of going as far as we can see on the road ahead and then looking to see what is beyond that when we get there.

This morning on The View they had a guest who was a new mother of twins. She described nursing them and indicated that she was going to nurse them until they were about two. All I could think of was my dear mother-in-law Lily, who nursed all of her kids. She always said that she nursed them until they were old enough to bite her. Once they bit they were off the breast. A very wise woman that Lil.

Tomorrow the choir practices at the Bavarian Inn again. We are going early and having dinner at a German restaurant that Beth knows. I am looking forward to some really good German food.

Til tomorrow.
