Worked all day using Roots IV. Decided I must call ComSoft to see how Green Springs got into every location field! Had Mary out for supper- filleted chicken thighs and rice and fruit jello. She doesn’t eat much and has lost 30 pounds in about 2 months.

Nice to have David here for breakfast. In to Heritage Hall after he finished tape drive installation and started backup. Jane and Jack in archives. David changed report form to include value fields to make it easier to compile report for 990 reports. David left for OSU to be with Josh during tryouts for admission to music department. Loafed afternoon and then worked and all evening on HemGen.
Call from Marcella Haldeman. She loves Day Before Yesterday. Told me how to make the Grant Haldeman peanut steak. (Sunday breakfast meal Walt and Bob remembered.)

Finance committee meeting in resource center. Jack, Carol Rubins. Dick Brooks, and I. Technicalities of Carol writing checks and making deposits after Jack codes and okays them. Think I persuaded Dick to remain as treasurer since his duties now reduced to giving reports at board meeting. Supper with two Mary’s at Perkins. Saw hutchman’s and got caught up. Bill thinks I may have seen a snowy owl.

Breakthrough in Roots IV so making progress in editing info. Can’t figure why Green Springs location got in so many wrong records.
