I attended the Odd Fellows Installation dinner and enjoyed a sense of belonging. It's feels good to feel part of an organization. I've been trying to host and start social poker groups. Maybe that is part of my purpose: to bring people together. Caleb is home from Thailand. It was nice to have dinner with our full family, plus Rachel and her parents. Elias is heading back to UCB today. Christmas break is over. I've been learning about Amtrak Rail Passes. I think I would enjoy traveling on a train. Philip shared more about his girlfriend and his work at the Senate. It sounds like he is enjoying this new challenge. Mae is getting more babysitting hours.
