I did nothing that really counted as work other than helping to feed critters. Played around on the computers, just fiddling. Rode with Gary into Chicago to take his mom shopping and out to lunch. We went to The Olive Garden, which is kinda over-priced but good stuff, since Gary still had a gift card from Christmas that was usable there. The gift card bought lunch for the three of us, so it was all gravy. Or should I say pasta? I had eggplant parmesan, one of my very favorite dishes. We also like their (all you can eat) salad, with the bruschetta appetizer (thin slices of toasted bread sprinkled with some garlic and Romano cheese, served with diced tomato and basil leaves.)

Came home and did more nothing. There are plenty of things that I could and should be doing, but I didn't feel like it. Helped a bit with evening chores, nearly put Tess out in the pasture for the first time this spring but Gary was out there working with Red and we aren't ready for an "off-lead" meeting of horse and dog. Helped him bring his agility jumps and some plastic hoops and cones from the arena to the dog yard so he can use them there with Red.

Mail was all just letters from places asking for donations of money I don't have. No messages or phone calls from work, so nothing to worry about. I do have to go in for tomorrow evening, about four hours. Then I'm done for the rest of the week.
