Tuesday, October 17

5:59 a.m. - Yesterday went as planned until the afternoon when I received an email from Annawan stating the volleyball match was postponed until Wednesday.  And because I'm officiating junior high basketball on Wednesday, I can't go.  That didn't help my wallet, but it did help my spirits, since I really want volleyball to be over anyway.  And with an afternoon off from officiating, I took the opportunity to get home and mow the grass.  It didn't really look that awful bad, but then I got into it and decided it was a good plan.  With Mother Nature's help with some cooler temperatures, perhaps that will be the last mowing job of the year.  I even capped the night off with a little time in the hot tub.

And because I didn't check the filter and add some chemicals last night, the first thing I did this morning, since I couldn't sleep anyway, was to jump back in the hot tub this morning.  It feels good to get out there on a cool morning and then jump in the hot water.  It almost feels equally cool to get back out and dry off in the cool air.

So another day is arriving, and today shouldn't be awful.  The last scheduled volleyball match is today at Riverdale.  They've been on a bad losing street, but Bureau Valley isn't very good.  So this might be senior night for the Rams, and it likely could be a good old "highly competitive" match.  I'll keep my sights on truck stop pizza to get me through the evening. 

Just keep swimming; just keep swimming; just keep swimming.
