Wednesday, and the train approaches

Rise slowly this morning. I'm not sure what is making me so groggy in the morning. I need to look deeper into this. One kitchen related course dream with an important point that stayed with me when I woke. Added this to the list of items for purchase.

Out to work with a small delay on the way in - the rain has enticed a tractor-trailer through a guard-rail and over an embankment on the north-bound side of the highway. 10:00 and the traffic is still backed up. Some e-mails for the course, and good wishes from PatrickS. More logistics and details become clear, and I feel that I can move forward again.

--------------------------------

Took some time at lunch and began the pre-course stock. Mostly paper items, working to visualize what the kitchen and the course needs, beyond what I have on my list. Quite a bit of volume, especially picking up paper and cleaning goods for the house. Sam's actually had less than I expected (no tea or decaf coffee?), so I'll have to do more shopping at the regular store.

Back home and unload the car. Think for a bit about getting up to the course, and give Dev a call to see if I can drop off most of the bulky stuff - if I don't, I won't be able to fit my guitar and clothes in the car (or me for that matter). Sit for a bit with Lisa, then head out to Whole Foods. More bulk stuff, and score a 50 pound bag of oats. That ought to just last the week (40 people for 10 days = lots of granola).

Dinner, then pack the car and head up to Dev's. We unload and discuss course details for a bit. I'm beginning to feel the pull of the course, but I think Dev is getting pulled a bit harder. Head back home and due to a lapse in attention, head north rather than south. After an extra 20 minutes stuck in traffic due to construction, I head home and to bed.
