JD needed some help in the shop early this morning.  Jo is now working full time at the school so John gave a hand with staining product.  He helped out for a couple of hours and then headed off to work with Matt.  The guys called it quits a little after noon as they ran out of materials--they'll be back on the job next Tuesday.  John's pretty happy to have a few days off to catch up on his rest.

I worked on the finances again this morning trying to find where I made a wrong entry and how to correct it.  It took a while, but I finally got everything straightened out.  I also spent some time today sorting through our summer clothes and deciding what we want to take to Texas for the winter and what we can leave at home.  Our weather has warmed up quite a bit over the past couple of days and should last through the weekend; however, after that, colder weather will be settling in for good, so we won't need the summer clothing any longer.

Along with the warm weather has come an inundation of ladybugs.  They are swarming everywhere and make it impossible to enjoy being out of doors.  The front porch floor is covered with them as well as all our windows.  Once the sun goes down, they disappear over night only to return the next day with the sun.  Can't wait for the colder weather to return so w can be rid of them.

Since it was such a nice evening, John decided to head up to Clearbrook and watch the varsity football game.  I decided to take a pass as we will be heading out of town tomorrow morning to watch Josh play.
