Each person deserves a day away in which no problems are confronted, no solutions searched for. Each of us needs to withdraw from the cares which will not withdraw from us. We need hours of aimless wandering or spates of time sitting on park benches, observing the mysterious world of ants and the canopy of treetops. - Maya Angelou

Steph’s Dad and I fixed the emergency brake on my truck, and I learned a lot about how to fix and maintain a system on my truck I’d never thought about before. I also reorganized my toolkit in the truck and made my tools more accessible. Additionally, I burned our paper waste, and completed another American Red Cross online training course towards my Disaster Response specialization (#49), called Serving People with Functional & Access Needs in Shelters (FANS).

I should get my business cards tomorrow, and I’ll be following up with the Oregon Board in the morning. I would really like to be working by December, and working a full day or more at least by Spring.
