After being preoccupied with canning over the last couple of days, it was time to catch up on some other household chores.

We took our walk nice and early while it was still cool, and following breakfast, I got busy finishing up the laundry I started yesterday.  With that out of the way, I tackled the office.  The desktop was littered with receipts and mail that needed to be sorted.  I got the finances brought up to date on the computer and  most of the desktop litter sorted and put away.  Still have a little more work to do in the office, but it'll have to wait until tomorrow.

John spent his day picking more tomatoes and changing the oil in his chainsaw.  There's going to be a big change in our weather with temps only in the low 60's, so he wants to have the saw ready for cutting more wood now that it's going to be cooler. 

We were just thinking about supper when Matt called and said Sam had a football game late this afternoon.  Somehow it didn't get on the schedule and the visiting team was on it's way to Clearbrook.  John grabbed a quick bite and headed up to see the 7th and 8th graders play.  I was in the middle of something and couldn't leave with him.  He called and let me know when Sam's game was beginning and I drove up to the school to watch that one.  The Bears lost the game, but Sam managed to score some extra points and caught a pass.

As soon as the football game was done, we walked into the school for Hanna's volleyball game.  There wasn't too much action tonight as the Bears won the first two games and mostly all the points were scored on serves--not much volleying back and forth.  Hanna had long serving runs in both games.

Once John and I returned home, we spent the remainder of the evening watching some TV and working on the computer.
