Busy Day | zilphia's Blog

Got up an hour before it was light, and noodled around with the computer.  I surfed and ended up looking at portraits of the six wives of Henry the VIII  Anne Boleyn is a favorite. By the time it was light, the dogs were going nuts and driving me nuts, so off to the marsh, the old dairy at the end of t he continental united states, that is, to run the dogs.

Came home and got ready to go to Gay Pride. The Unitarian Universalist Church that I attend had a booth, and I had volunteered to bake butterfly-shaped sugar cookies for the event--the butterfly was this years logo for gay pride.   Took cookies down, and hung out for a bit decorating cookies with the folks who were minding the tent.  Took a stroll round the square, looking at all the costumes, ETC.  I think the most interesting was the gay women.  They are fairly invisible in this town--no bars, etc.  But here they were in force, everyone from tough little cookies, to big old earth mothers and diesel dykes.I smiled at one and all and everyone there was happy.

Came home, and made some soup for the shelter this afternoon, which I will be serving tomorrow.  Then my volunteer activities are over for the  month.

Made Pizza tonight.  Sooo Sleepy now.
