Friday – 3/3/2017

Weighed 230. Noticed my notecard dating back to 2009 showed me at 260. Odd loss of weight. Though, I have noticed that I have been indulging in less face stuffing moments. Maybe peanut butter is the key. 

HAL mtg. 

Went to library about noon. Mtg w Emily Chameides, Carol Pledger, & Brenda Shufelt about volunteer processes. Stopped on way home to talk with Tessy Keller about her dealing with volunteers. She asked for help with ticketing system. 

Drove to Albany for dinner and movie with Anita Harris. Snow squalls along the way. Dinner at Van’s followed by Iranian movie The Salesman. A bit slow, melodramatic but also not aHollywood movie.

Drove to Albany.

Along the way we stopped in Kinderhook at jack Shainman’s The School Gallery for the “Winter in America” show. Very diverse but in the end unfocused and not very interesting. Liked the di Suvero sculpture on the lawn.

At the Albany Institute of History and Art. David Drake joined us.

The Capital Region in 50 Objects – surprisingly good.
