On Monday, we went to Unity Shoppe. We packaged cherry tomatoes into plastic containers. I will be paid $10.50 per hour, through Work Abilities, starting on October, 2.

On Wednesday, we went to ceramics class and made more tiles. We are going to be paid for our work. After ceramics class we went to Mad Fitness. I rode the spin cycle for 25 minutes. On Thursday, we went back to ceramics class and made more tiles. Then we worked at Unity Shoppe. We had to work fast because they needed the space to film Kenny Loggins. After that we went to Lilac Gluten-Free Bakery and got a piece of cake for a blind taste test during Friday's speech therapy session.

Today we hiked just over three miles at Parma Park, between Montecito and Santa Barbara. Someone in the group brought a dog. We saw a lot of cool plants. Here is some fennel. People eat fennel root. Here is some artichoke. You can eat these.  Here is the view from the top of the hike.

Today we went to the MOXI Museum. At the MOXI we added sound effects to movie clips. We used different objects, including our voice to make sounds. After the MOXI we went to the beach near the wharf. Then we wnt to the DMV to get a state residency I.D. card. We did not have my birth certificate, so we couldn't get one.  Then we went to Alpha Thrift.  I want to work there and make money. I tried to take a movie from someones hand, I need to respect people's personal space and not grab things that I want from them. If I can't do that, then I can't go the thrift store, or other fun places.

Today we went to the Unity Shoppe. We stocked the shelves with tomato sauce cans. We bagged oranges, putting six in each bag and twisting them closed with a sticker tie. We were on the lockout for molding oranges. Molding oranges have white powdery mold. We throw those away.

On Wednesday, we went to ceramics class. We are making tiles to set below pool coping at a skateboarding ramp in San Jose, CA. The tiles have cacti stamped into them. We will paint and glaze them. They are 3"x3". We will be paid for our tiles.
